Osteria Pico

Martha Medina★★★★★

Wandering through the beautiful streets of Matera, getting lost in its charming maze of alleys, we stumbled upon a cozy osteria we had already heard great things about. Curious and excited, we decided to step in. We were seated at a very unique little table, tucked into a small, intimate corner of the restaurant, which made the experience feel even more special. We ordered orecchiette with mushrooms and a delicious lamb dish, both of which were absolutely exquisite. Everything was full of flavor and beautifully prepared. We paired our meal with a lovely wine that complemented the dishes perfec

Wonderful experience at Osteria Pico in Matera! The food was outstanding – authentic, rich in flavor, and perfectly prepared. The service was even more impressive – warm, attentive, and genuinely caring. The atmosphere added a special charm to the whole evening. Highly recommended, a place worth coming back to!

The restaurant is stunning. The kind waiter is wonderful and the food is amazing. I got the orecchiette and it was amazing, with such a three-dimensional quality of flavor and delicious breadcrumbs. My husband got the first entree, which was suino or pork, and it was tender and well cooked. I don’t think we need to go anywhere else!

Matera is magical, and dining in a cave was supposed to be the highlight of our trip. The Orecchiette Materana at Osteria Pico actually tasted quite good - the local flavors and great crunch were exactly what we were looking for.

While the food itself was good and met my expectations, the charm of the place was instantly ruined. ​However, the most disappointing part wasn't the find itself, but the staff's reaction.
