My wife and I recently dined here and had a very pleasant experience. Atmosphere was calm and welcoming. Host was prompt and very helpful. Our server was Martha. She was very personable and knowledgeable about all the dishes and local tourist locations. The food amazing. The Mushroom Crostini was on point. The cheese wasn’t to over powering, and the portion was spot on. I got the Fettuccine Alfredo with grilled chicken, excellent choice. The alfredo was fresh and creamy and chicken was charbroiled to perfection. My wife had the prosciutto wrapped chicken with marcella sauce. It was what the doctored ordered. All and all, we rate it a 4/5. I do highly recommend if you are looking for good Italian while visiting.

Nice Italian place near city center. Service was amazing and attentive. Food was on a smaller portion but it tasted great. Loved the clam chowder. Sea food was so fresh you could swear they just jump out of the sea into your plate.

We were looking for some good Italian food after having eaten a LOT of Lobster and Clam Chowder over the past few days, and were lucky enough to find Mama Dimatteo’s!

When you need a break from fried seafood, give this place a try. I had the browned gnocchi and my wife the gorgonzola steak. Both were excellent.

Don’t let the funky facade and decor fool you. This is the best Italian food for the money in Bar Harbor. Clam and linguine, as well as swordfish piccata, are fantastic. Also try Gorgonzola salad and a blueberry crisp dessert. Our waiter, Scott, was attentive and helpful with suggestions. Plenty of wine choices and specialty cocktails. I cannot recommend this place highly enough. Make reservations if you want to eat outside.

A very nice find of a restaurant. Our waiter was awesome, and the food was amazing. We have had Mamas Onion soup (as close as you can expect to the French original in an Italian restaurant in the US), Lobster Mac’n’Cheese, Cajun Grilled Halibut on Cesar’s Salad and Chicken Parmesan. All great dishes … and not to forget to mention our awesome Blueberry Mojitos.

Easily the best restaurant we went to in Bar Harbor. We wanted to get something different after getting tired of lobster and being disappointed by some other restaurants in this area.

This place was Amazing,I really enjoyed eating dinner here. I got buttered spaghetti its not on their menu. I ordered this because I prefer more simplistic dishes due to my sensory issues. Our server Kira didn’t miss a beat in writing my odder down and sending it off to the kitchen. She is quite possibly the best server at any restaurant I’ve ever been to. We sat in the garden outside, which was quite beautiful especially at night. The garden beds have all sorts of herbs ,tomatoes and squash. That they use in their cooking as well as flowers. The roasted garlic as an appetizer was just divine with their bread. Over all this was a ten out of ten experience. With crème brûlée and local ice cream for desert!

The food was absolutely amazing! This restaurant seems like a hidden gem. I’m surprised it is not packed! Please don’t get offended by Alex, he is great just had a matter of fact personality. We had chicken gnocchi and garlic Parmesan haddock. For an appetizer we had the rossotto cheese ball which was delicious!

Wow! This was the best dining experience we had in Bar Harbor. It’s very easy to miss this hidden gem. It’s not on the main roads and is in a quiet corner of downtown. The patio has beautiful flowers and fireplaces and inside is a charming mid century coastal vibe, very basic, but elegant. The service was attentive and felt slowed down and personal, not just another table to turn. The food was amazing, cooked and seasoned perfectly and the bottles of wine were reasonably priced. 12/10 would recommend.
