After walking a very long distance from the new town and getting fully lost in the winding streets of the old town, we just wanted a simple, light lunch with some booze. Ordered a sparkling rose, a beer, bar olives and two different tapas style appetizer samplers typical of the Puglia region. My platter had: crostini with bruschetta, mystery cheese (I never learned what this was!) that tastes like queso fresco with a pickled beet jawn on top, mini eggplant lasagna, a pizza fritta pocket, grilled cheese, meatballs, and buffalo mozzarella. BF's platter had: caprese tomato/mozzarella combo with seasoned olive oil and side of pesto, meatballs, grilled cheese and a quinoa salad. Both platters were fresh and tasty. Perfect portion for a light lunch and a true taste of the region. Perhaps a tad overpriced since it was a bit touristy here, however, I think I preferred this app sampler to that of La Uascezze and I loved that place, so it was worth it. Plus, it was a great way to kill a few hours and look out at the sea.

We recently dined at Ai Palmenti Ristorante during a trip through Southern Italy, and unfortunately…read morethe experience was quite mixed. The food itself was decent--there were some good flavors and the dishes showed promise. Nothing extraordinary, but certainly enjoyable enough. However, the service was among the worst we've encountered during several weeks traveling across Southern Italy and Sicily. It was inattentive, slow, and at times felt dismissive, which really detracted from the overall experience. What was most surprising--and disappointing--was the billing. The restaurant added what was effectively an "American-style" extra charge, including a bread fee and a cover charge that came to about €15 per person. While a small coperto is common in Italy, this felt excessive and was not clearly communicated upfront. Overall, while the kitchen shows potential, the poor service and unexpected charges make it difficult to recommend. There are many better options in Matera that offer both great food and a more welcoming, transparent experience.

Now, I know I might upset some parents, but why would you bring your child here? We had a 9:00 reservation and this kid should NOT have been up let alone at such an expensive place. Their evening was ruined not to mention ours. And they showed absolutely no consideration whatsoever. Heck, they even cooed and played peekaboo like it was normal to do this at a Michelan star restaurant. Kind of hard to enjoy our romantic six course meal with wine pairings when the child was hissing like a raptor from Jurassic Park. My main issue is that we asked the waiter to move us to another room and he said they were on dessert. I don't care. We shouldn't have had to ask in the first place. When you are spending that kind of money ($500) on a MEAL, it is obviously a special occasion and that kid gave me a migraine. My bae even joked that he now knew I'd never have a kid since I was already on the fence and this kid was already ruining the romance in our relationship and it wasn't even ours. (I'm not exaggerating...this child was screaming like a banshee non stop.) I wish we could do the evening over minus the kid because it really was a special place...I'm just furious inconsiderate people ruined it and the restaurant allowed the behavior. At one point we thought we were on a candid camera show.
