"En arrivant a la cathédrale nous avons vu ce petit restaurant et nous sommes venus nousby installer. Nous avons etaient tres bien accueillis avec un peu de francais. Notre chienne a eu droit a sa gamelle d'eau sans que nous le demandions. Nous avons très bien manger. Plats bien présentés et copieux. En prime on nous a offert deux petits gateaux typiques. Nous recommandons ce petit coin pour la cuisine et l'accueil de sa proprietaire."

"Ottimo per bere qualcosa di fresco, un aperitivo o uno spuntino (più o meno) veloce! Servizio cortese e attento, ho assaggiato la nostra "cialledda", piatto tipico materano ed era come quella fatta in casa: buonissima nella sua semplicità. Peccato per gli spazi interni, un po' sacrificati, ma i tavolini ricompensano tutto con la vista sulla Piazza della Cattedrale di Matera."

"Najlepszy aperol jaki piliśmy! Chyba byliśmy pierwszymi klientami tego dnia i przemiły barman zużył pół mięty do naszych napojów! Było to przepyszne i aromatyczne. Do tego mini croissanty i widok na Bazylikę"

"Un angolo di meraviglia nel cuore di Matera. Un locale piccolo ma pieno di atmosfera, affacciato sul Duomo, dove è impossibile non tornare. Con Vito, il proprietario, ci sentiamo ogni volta a casa. Dal primo sorso di caffè ci ha fatti sentire accolti con il cuore, con quella gentilezza autentica che non si dimentica. Ci ha fatto assaggiare piatti della tradizione buonissimi, raccontati con passione e preparati con amore. E lo staff? Le ragazze sono splendide: cordiali, sorridenti, sempre pronte a farci sentire bene. Un posto speciale, dove ogni pausa diventa un momento da ricordare. Grazie Vito, torneremo ancora e ancora!"

"Great location in the heart of the Sassi of Matera, we ate excellent cheeseburgers and tasted the typical dessert "tetta della monaca". Friendly and always smiling staff, attentive and fast service."

"Abbiamo visitato questo bar per un aperitivo al tramonto e ci siamo trovati molto bene. Ci hanno portato un tagliere misto di salumi e formaggi tipici del posto e un paio di calici di un buon vino bianco locale. A seguire un misto di crostini con delle salsine miste locali. La cattedrale è proprio davanti al vostro tavolo, con una pittoresca vista dall’alto dei sassi che al tramonto regalano uno spettacolo unico. Il responsabile è stato molto gentile e ha cercato di risolvere un problema non dipeso da lui. Unica nota negativa, la presenza di molte auto nella piazza della cattedrale, che rovinano un po’ la bellezza dell’ambiente."
