    Just amazing. Food was delicious and had so many options. It was easy to share with my partner. Staff were generous and attentive but not overbearing. Just a great experience.

    Very nice table but very chilly (windows on three sides). Server appeared new, not very knowledgeable and quite slow. Cold room meant ou food cooled off rather quickly. We dined on a Sunday and the kitchen was out of no fewer than 6 of the Tapas options on the menu, which seemed pretty excessive (some of them were items like "hummos," which you'd think would be a staple. We have frequented other Tapas places in Greater Boston and found Matadora's food to be tasty and well prepared, but not superior to others. We did not try entrees so can't comment on that. Gelatos were served without the whipped cream described on menu. We spent about $420 w tip for four. I'm not sure I would make the trip (we drove from Metrowest to meet friends) again for the experience. Reviewers are right that it is a very beautiful dining room despite being off a hotel lobby.

    Waitress had too many tables. We waited too long repeatedly. Management did a poor job seating too many people vs the staff they had working.

    We made reservations during a lunch break of a conference in the hotel. In all fairness, they were slammed with a big rush. However, even with reservations it took us 15-20 minutes to get seated. We then sat there for 20 more minutes and weren't even acknowledged by a server. We ended up leaving.

    So good, we were on a work trip. We did not realize it is in the hotel. We are going back again tonight because we want to try more of the menu.

    Amazing food! Atmosphere was great. My husband ordered the Chicken Two Ways and said it was one of the best things he ever tasted.
