Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews

Mati is a culinary gem known for its "incredible food" and "flawless service." Diners rave about its unique drinks and superb wine menu. While the atmosphere is vibrant, the patio offers a quieter dining experience. Notable dishes include the seafood tower and Iberico pork chop. Ideal for special occasions.

All was beautiful and delicious, however the ambiance was ruined by a one year old child who was disruptive!

The food was excellent, as usual. The servers friendly. It is a loud restaurant, but you can still have a conversation. The only issue we had is that we specifically asked to have time between dishes, but we got everything all at once. The dining experience is so much better when we share one or two dishes, then have one or two dishes more. Getting everything all at once makes you feel as if you have to eat in a hurry. Everything else was great.
