I have had a lot of Italian food but this was some of the best. Take the cooking class and enjoy the fruits of your fun labor! I will definitely be coming back. Great for a date night or just a fun evening activity! Most cooking classes everyone eats the same thing. This is not most cooking classes, everyone gets to make their own pasta and have their own flavors!

Pasta making class was so much fun. We enjoyed chatting with our instructor and other people that attended the class as well. We learned a lot about pasta and also about one another.

The place is extremely charming. The food is not my cup of tea, very fancy and not much of the dishes, but tasty. The service was stellar. Our server was very attentive and nice. The restaurant doesn’t has a liquor license but they will let you bring your own booze, and lucky enough there’s a liquor store right next to it. I had a great time and would comeback for a class.

I’ll start with a disclaimer – this is solely regarding dinner, not the cooking lessons that take place at this establishment. We sort of observed those lessons from the flank but were not involved.

My boyfriend and I have been passing by this restaurant for a while and have been wanting to give it a try. So glad we finally did. Mattarello has a vintage vibe and modern Italian flavors. We really enjoyed the staff- one of the owners greeted me by name! That was a really nice touch. The location is very clean. The food was phenomenal, flavorful, and fresh. Overall, it was such an enjoyable experience. They offer cooking classes and I would love to see what that was all about.

Fun to make the pasta!! Instructions were great and it’s super fun to go a couple night for date night. Pasta was a little Al dente but I probably should have told them how much I wanted it cooked before hand. Kind of expensive though. Great tiramisu

Great experience making pasta. Francesco was a great host we had an excellent time. **Be aware the Airbnb price is much higher than the price you pay if you book directly from the restaurants website!!**
