Pizzeria La Matta — Restaurant in Paris

When I say a meal at this restaurant was one of the best experiences of my life, I am not exaggerating. I don't even know where to start. The venue, the service, the people, the FOOD, the experience - all of it was 100/10.

My family went to celebrate my mother's birthday and we really wanted good food and good portions because my family is very particular about food. Saw the reviews for a cute little Italian spou and thought we would give it a shot. From the outside, my mother seemed disappointed because it looked like an ordinary pizzaria that would only do takeaways and she had dressed up very nice to celebrate. But when we walked inside and were taken to the dining area at the back; the interior was so beautiful and elegant.

We hadn't even made a booking but they were happy to take us in. They gave us a lovely large table and the waiters were so accommodating. We were taken care of so well. We don't speak french, but one of the waiters spoke English and took such good care of us. All of the waiters checked in on us to see if everything was ok :)) Everyone was so friendly. Our waiter recommended some meals and we were so excited we wanted to try EVERYTHING!! He was brilliant. I didnt catch his name, but he wasn't from france (spoke perfect French though). Please give him another huge thank you from us if you know who it was working that day!

I don't remember the names of everything we ordered, but there was mushroom pasta, pesto type pasta, and a tomato linguine of some sort and it was the BEST PASTA I have eaten in my life. The mushroom pasta stole the show. We loved it so much we ordered another portion. (portions were great!!) We also knew we were only there one time so we ordered the vegetarian pizza (we were full but we powered through), and it was beautiful Just beautiful. I would next time go for a ham or some sort of meat pizza because they looked amazing (like i said we're difficult family when deciding what to eat so we didnt get to try) :( )

Dessert: sighs thinking about it . The TIRAMISU. Best one i've ever eater. THE CHOCOLATE CAKE. (Tasted just like ferrero rocher - I am not complaining, by the way!) THE PISTACHIO CAKE. OH MY GOODNESS. I dont think I can go on. BEST MEAL OF MY LIFE. We also casually mentioned it was my mum's birthday as soon as we walked in - the waiters were just so friendly we couldn't stop talking to them haha - and they brought out the cake with a candle and the whole restaurant sang. She was so happy I thought she was going to cry.

Please leave a good tip, because they absolutely deserve it.

You all took such good care of my family and I cannot thank you enough. It was the perfect end to a beautiful day and such a memorable experience. If I ever find myself near France again, I will trek down to Paris just to have a meal at La Matta again....

Terrible service and very Bad Food, their vegetables antipasti & most of the pasta dishes we ordered, were definitely very badly cooked and had nothing to do with Italian cuisine. We sent it back. Uncooked! eggplants and uncooked zucchini in 3 dishes, 1 cold and 2 supposedly hot. As to my personal observation, in the kitchen were amatures with 0 knowledge or experience of Italian cooking. Even their Chardonnay was tasteless, we left a 1/3 of a bottle! A thing which never happened before for the 3 of us. We usualy order a second bottle. We or our friends will not eat here again. We did not try their Pizzas, so I have no opnion in their regad. Our recommendation: that their cooks shold go to an Italian cooking school. And that their server/waiter improves his practice and table manners. A nightmare of...

Je suis venue aujourd’hui pour une Calzone à 14€50 ( Prix marqué sur la carte) ce qui est déjà pas rien comme prix je trouve. ( inflation soit ). J’ai remplacé le Jambon par du thon.

À la demande de l’addition je vois marqué meditaranea ( thon , artichaut , olive , tomate , mozzarella ) à 15€50. Je lui dit étant habituée ( car je travail à côté) que je n’ai jamais eu de supplément en remplaçant cet ingrédient dans le passé. ( 2 ans que je viens de temps en temps le midi ).

Si la règle à changé quelque soit la raison, je veux bien , mais je leur dit juste qu’ils auraient pu me le dire. Le patron ma alors très mal parlé devant tout le monde en criant et à annoncé des propos sans rapport , en me disant qu’il y a des femmes qui se font * , et des guerres et donc que je devrais limite fermer ma bouche et ne pas m’exprimer. Puis continuant de me crier dessus alors que je lui demande de se calmer. Il continue disant qu’il est très calme et que je suis impolie.

J’ai payé,je suis partie, et je ne reviendrai plus jamais dans ce restau sachant mon expérience de la dernière fois qui ai d’avoir attendu 45 min ma pizza car ils se sont trompés mais bien évidement sans me le dire. Merci au patron aggressif.

Je me demande bien qui de nous deux se plaint alors qu’il y a plus grave dans la vie.

Étant un petit nerveux je me doute bien de sa réponse sans respect surtout en voyant ses commentaires il a pas l’air d’être une personne qui se remet en question mais accuse les gens de menteur … bravo !

Courage...
