Matteo's

Anyone familar with Matteo's in Crossbay Blvd/ Howard Beach? Is it 2mins away from church and Im thinking of having RD there?

My brother ate there and said they serve 'family' style food. He also said it was yummy.

Not a fan. It's expensive, the food is not great, and check out their latest health inspection report. A is 12 points or less, a C is 28 points or more and means they can be shut down.. Matte's has 43 points!! VOMIT!!!!

wow, didn't know any of this though

Their prior ratings were good, but this recent one is .

I recently started a hobby of looking up restaurant ratings, so i looked up all the local places and remembered that matteos had a really bad score.

ALSO Matteo's is NOT handicapped accessible. you have to go down a very long flight of stairs for the bathroom, which I found out the hard way when I was there on crutches. Esp for a bridal shower or RD when you have people of all ages there, I am just not a fan. I can not expect elderly people to do those stairs.
