    We always love San Matteo. We recommend sitting in the back if you want pizza—being near the pizza oven means you get it as soon as it comes out of,the oven

    So disappointed. I love their chicken parm. Now they only have veal parm and it’s crazy expensive over $50. I forgot exactly how much. Even if their on line menu lists chicken parm at $25. Noisy . Pizza is still delicious . Great crust. Super soft center. Friendly staff. Yummy salad at $19. Gnocchi was cold and blah. Sadly won’t come back, used to be a favorite
