Robba Da Matti (yaletown)

“ Roba di Matti is my favorite Italian spot in Vancouver! As a French person, I love the high-quality ingredients and the authentic, European ambiance. We've been there three times, and each visit has been amazing, thanks to the warm welcome from the Italian waitress (sorry I forget to ask your name), who always makes the experience unforgettable. Simple, delicious, and truly special ”

“ great food and even greater service, Irene was kind, professional and knowledgeable. espresso martini was the best i've ever had and the carbonara had a nice and bouncy chew. portions were more than enough, i was able to take some home for a little snack ”

“ Awesome pasta, really really good! Server is friendly and Italian himself, proud of what they serve. Good family restaurant vibes. Price is reasonable, comes with generous portion, quality is top notch. A very pleasant dining experience. ”

“ Serving authentic Italian fare on the bricked lanes of Yaletown, this restaurant is a great spot for medium sized groups or a date night. For drinks and nibbles, a bowl of pasta, or a full on multi-course meal. The open plan kitchen and bar really brings the action close to your table. Irrespective of what we ordered, we could smell every dish being prepared, and hear every drink being poured. Without needing to walk too far, table service was timely. Italian cuisine usually comprises of fewer ingredients per dish so it is always a good meal when you could pick out and complement the way individual components tasted. This place was no exception: the balsamic vinegar in the bread dips was outstanding, and so was the razor thin beef carpaccio. Our two pasta mains were both made fresh and al dente. We could taste the nuts and herbs in every bite of the Rigatoni al Pesto, and the burrata on top gave the dish an extra dimension. The Squid-ink Spaghetti Amalfi with its huge tiger prawns, lemon zest and more nuts and burrata (yay!) was a wonderful combination. Given the versatility of the menu across different occasions and group sizes. We would recommend multiple visits to make the most of their offering. Bravo! ”

From the moment I stepped into the cozy, inviting ambiance of this quaint little restaurant, I was greeted with warmth and an eagerness to please from the staff that set the stage for a memorable evening.

It paired beautifully with the meal, adding a unique flair that I've not experienced elsewhere. The caprese salad and cheese were a revelation in simplicity and quality. The ingredients' freshness allowed their natural flavors to shine, literally melting in the mouth and leaving a lasting impression of culinary excellence. Despite the limited seating, which only adds to the charm and intimate atmosphere of Robba Da Matti, I never felt cramped or rushed. The cook and staff were nothing short of amazing, balancing professionalism with a personal touch that made the dining experience feel exclusive.
