    Expected better form the price. Service was good but slow. Very few people in and food took a while. A 1/4 of an iceberg lettuce chopped with vinaigrette and herbs was 16$ !!

    Portions are very small and overpriced. Food is just ok. Service was great though, our server is very cheerful and attentive.

    The service & overall vibe were great. Very unique space. Dirty martini & fish and chips were highlights. The food was good but I wanted it to be great since the restaurant is getting so much hype and is on the pricey side.

    We had super high hopes. Took 40 minutes to get any food at all. Portions are very small and the food is good, not great. I love every other Matty restaurant, and especially loved Fonda in yhe same spot. Anyways, I will still love all the others!

    What a lovely evening, the service, the food, the vibes were amazing! We loved the fish and chips, the fried clams with bellies and had a beautiful bottle of wine. Can’t wait to come back

    We have been looking forward to visiting for months. The restaurant did not disappoint! It’s casual and quiet, with old timey music that is comforting and fun. The staff are incredibly kind, attentive and accommodating. The food is out of this world!!! We will definitely be back again!!
