Matisse offers a delightful dining experience, with each dish carefully prepared and presented. The menu features a range of options, including oysters, soft shell crab, Branzino filet, and short ribs. Guests have praised the excellent soft-shell crab and the rich seafood risotto, though some have noted that the risotto can be bland at times. Their 3-course meals and brunches are particularly sensational, offering abundant choices and perfect service. The fried green tomatoes are a perfect start, and the halibut is noted for being perfectly cooked, although the accompanying flavors can be confusing. Guests have enjoyed the bourbon French toast, eggs benedict, and Moroccan eggs during brunch. The wine list is diverse and affordable, and their cocktails and desserts are tasty, with the strawberry shortcake being highlighted as excellent. With a professional and courteous staff, including warm service from the busboy to the server, Matisse provides an inviting and cozy ambiance reminiscent of a French country restaurant. It is a great place to dine, pleasing guests in every way and happily rediscovered by many.
