“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Dining at Da’Matteo’s was an unforgettable experience. From the moment we stepped in, we felt like we were welcomed into a warm, Italian family. The food wasn’t just delicious—it was made with love. Every bite of the of the calamari, pesto gnocchi, and eggplant parmigiana reminded me of how food can bring people together. The cozy atmosphere and the kind, attentive staff made us feel so at home. This isn’t just a restaurant; it’s a place where memories are made. I’m already looking forward to our next visit.“

“The garlic dipping oil is amazing. We took some home and put it on sandwiches and in a crab omelet. We have been talking about it for days. The lasagna is remarkable and the ribeye steak I ordered was enough for three meals. Cooked perfectly medium rare. Friends had the lobster ravioli and shrimp with vodka sauce which was good. Calamari was outstanding, very tender. Our waitress was Lauren L., very professional and pleasant. We will definitely go back there again next year when we visit.“

“My DoorDash delivery driver missed our entire pizza order and only delivered my family a salad. Whether it was negligence on the drivers part, the fact that he misunderstood their request to wait or otherwise, Clemenza’s gave us a second pizza just for the inconvenience of having to pick up our own delivery. This issue was no fault of theirs however they immediately prioritized my family and our experience with their restaurant, food, and service. The food was delicious but their attentiveness to this experience was outstanding.“
