Matteo's - Melbourne

We missed out on our workplace Christmas dinner last year due to covid restrictions so we had to make up for it. Matteo’s in Fitzroy is where we go every year and it was really nice to be able to visit again and pretend like it’s Christmas. The 3 course meal was deliciously delicate. I had the crab pasta for entree, the steak for main and a caramel tart for dessert. Everything was prepared with care and tasted great. Service was attentive but not intrusive. Christmas in July…it always sounded hokey to me but with the cold weather, it’s not such a bad concept.

Fine dining. Fourth time there and this was just as good as the first. Great for a special occasion and will book again.

Matteo’s in Fitzroy is a first class restaurant. We attended the Sanguine Wine Estate Family dinner as a group of 6. The service start to finish was excellent. The starter plate was superb with a great selection of beautifully prepared morsels. The entree was a Risotto with a delicate mushroom sauce delicious. The main was a fillet of perfectly cooked duck. The dessert a beautiful chocolate mousse. The accompaniment of Sanguine wine was the perfect way to enjoy such a beautiful dinner. Highly recommended.

Excellent, friendly, untroubled service. Food looked and tasted fabulous.

We went here for our anniversary dinner and oh man the ambience itself feels so warm and perfect for a date! We went for the tasting menu and oh my each dish simply blew us over one by one! Our favorites were definitely the oysters, beef tartare, crudo, toothfish and dessert! Their wine selection was fantastic as well along with a great variety of alcoholic and non alcoholic cocktails. Their service on top of everything was impeccable!! Highly recommend!! PS: I personally am a big fan of dishes with great complementary sauces! Matteo's definitely pleased my fussy palate! The chefs really know what they are doing!
