If you are seeking traditional food visiting Matera this comes highly recommended indeed.

Situated in the Sassi downstairs, it is a charming restaurant with a cinema downstairs.

Staff were friendly and service very attentive.

It has a cosy feeling inside with a great atmosphere.

Onto the food – we started with the pulses and bread which has a wonderful rustic taste.

We had a fennel and orange salad which was incredibly fresh and made from high-quality produce.

The cod main and the mutton were bith excellent. The mutton has a topping of Matera bread and the contents tasted of a perfect savoury flavour.

I also had the wine pairing for 30 euros for 5 reasonably sized glasses.

The beetroot carpaccio was wonderful too.

The gelato and desserts also showed care in the making – the gelato with a little olive oil.

A great place to come and experienced Matera.

We came here for lunch, as they were fully booked for all dinners over the weekend. We ordered the set menu + wine pairing, and absolutely enjoyed our time there. I wish we got our waiter’s name because he was so friendly and spent time explaining to us about all the wines we were tasting. Our waiter’s warmth definitely made the experience better for us. The meals were delicious too. Would definitely come again if we visit Matera again.

An unbelievable location. Looks ordinary from the out side but is in fact a deep cavern with stairs going down into the rock. The food was very tasty taking pride in local tradition and the staff was very friendly. Would gladly come back

It‘s all good until it‘s fraud!

Read down below before you visit La Lopa in Matera!

First of all, the restaurant is a nice place and the food is good. Don‘t expect overly large portions but the taste was nice and I would recommend eating an Antipasto, a Primi or Secondi with a side dish and a dessert.

What about the fraud:

We ordered two glasses of red wine and a bottle of water along with the dinner. The wine didn‘t arrive and we thought about it because we had to drive home 2 hours after dinner.

We let the waiter know that they forgot the wine and that we would cancel it because we would stay with water only. No problem, he responded.

When we asked for the bill it was 89€ including two glasses of red wine for I think 7€ in total, which we didn’t receive and canceled later at the waiter. It was a bill with all the positions we ordered in detail.

I asked the waitress to correct the bill expecting to pay 82€ and give her a tip instead.

What happened was that one of the two women in charge, a blonde, came to us with the card reader covering the bill inside of her hand. The card reader said 89€ and she asked for the credit card. I gave it to her because I didn‘t care about the 7€, more about the fact that she was willing to betray her customers. After the payment was made she quickly got rid of the bill crumpling it up with her hand.

I immediately asked for the bill, so instead of giving me the detailed bill she had crumpled up, she walked away and came back with a bill which only stated the total amount of 89€ but without the positions we ordered in detail. This would otherwise have revealed that she didn’t correct the bill as we asked her to.

So I‘m asking you directly: What did you earn by fooling and betraying your customers without even thinking anyone would notice your criminal behaviour?

I wasn‘t willing to argue at this moment but I already thought it would be better to warn other customers here.

You, as a leading employee of this restaurant should be ashamed of yourself!

Nice place. Have a cave cinema showing the movie clips that were taken in Matera. Food is part good as well as the service. The service is pretty fast.

We had a wonderful lunch at La Lopa — the food was absolutely delicious. The lamb in a bag was excellent, and the chef’s surprise side was surprisingly good. We had really hoped to visit the cinema, but it wasn’t operating at lunchtime. The staff encouraged us to return in the evening, and we’re so glad we did. We certainly didn’t regret it!

Stumbled upon the restaurant on a walk through the town, it immediately piquet our interest from the simple menu and attractive exterior, we were glad to have found it, we had the degustation menu with wine tasting which was not at all expensive for 2, enough to fully satisfy us, it was delicious and the size of dishes were great as well as the service and presentation. We later came back for dinner for the Fave beans with turnip tops, simply amazing. Great food with great prices and family-like service. Will come back next year!
