Great food and service An impromptu night out with friends in Seaton and thought we'd pop into Matteos (on the off chance they could accommodate us -yes they did) and it was fantastic. Service was great, not intrusive but there at the perfect time to order more drinks and for help with questions (and recommendations) with meal choices. Ambience in restaurant is lovely and matched with the service provided and specta... View all feedback.

What paulcL252KB dislikes about Matteo's:
Food was good. Pasta great, pizza probably average but proper Italian pizza. Absolutely great value food though especially on the early bird menu. Service wasn't the best. Seemed the owner, although doing so out of trying his best, was probably exerting a little bit too much control so there were some longer waits than would have been expected. View all feedback.

Last minute meal out. Welcoming and friendly staff, prompt service. Food was really tasty and nicely presented, not huge portions but we had a dessert to finish off. Will definately be back!

Worst place I have ever been to. The staff were so rude! Waited 20 minutes before a drinks order was even taken, then another 10 for drinks to be brought and a food order take. 1 hour and 15 minutes we had been there before our starters came out!! Could cook better at home. Was asked if we wanted deserts, absolutely not! Couldn’t wait to leave. When leaving we saw rats down the side of the building and near the kitchen back door which was bordering onto where they cook! Staff were also stood smoking there as the place was as busy as anything. No wonder for the wait!!! Would not return and hope no else does. Doesn’t deserve to be in business!

A cracking night at Matteo's where we had an early evening family meal. Very reasonably priced, good food, excellent customer service and a family friendly atmosphere. Well worth a visit!
