La Matatena Pizzeria

2 Vibes By Sorgenfri - a week ago

We had really high hopes for our visit to this restaurant, but in all honestly left with bitter disappointment. We ordered a 50/50 vegan pizza and a vegan lasagna to go. When we got home and opened the boxes it was not really a very appealing sight that greeted us. Considering the prices this restaurant has we expected a really big and well tasting meal. But the lasagne was neither big nor well tasting. The pizza was the size ordered, but also very uninspiring to eat.

This is really a shame when coming to a 4.5 star restaurant which sets its food prices to reflect high quality dining.

We sadly have nothing good to say about our experience here and wish we hadn’t spent the money.

If you like thin crust pizza, this is the place! Try the local beer, Ammon. It won’t disappoint if you like a fine IPA. We split a large pizza, half margarita and half caramelized onion and bacon.

The vegan pizza and vegan lasagna were amazing! The cheese they use is perfect. I could eat this pizza every day. One note is that you might want to order the lasagna without the carrots because the carrot flavor is overwhelming and too healthy feeling and takes away from the satisfying/guilty pleasure of normal lasagna (cheese, tomato, pasta). I think removing the carrots and maybe adding soy chorizo and more tomato would be a better choice if you want it to taste like the lasagna you crave.

Sorry I don't speak Spanish, review in English:-)

Probably in the top 10 of the pizzas I have ever eaten... Very thin, amazing products, not a problem to allow 5 stars to this place!

The staff is great, very nice, and speaks correct English. They have paper and pen to lend to kids, which is very smart. It is inside an interior courtyard, very safe for kids. A good choice of draft beer.

I could go there twice a week:-)

Tasty thin crust pizza, with vegan cheese and soy chorizo options. I went for the Chabela (black olives and mushroom) which was pretty bland, but totally saved by the amazingly smoky chilli sauce among the condiments.
My partner chose her own toppings - pesto, spinach, mushroom - and it was way better, but also a bit more expensive.
Great staff, nice atmosphere, and a reasonable selection of drinks, but worth noting that this was by far the most expensive meal we've had in Oaxaca - and we've eaten out a lot!

[Please excuse photos - we were so hungry we were nearly finished before we remembered!]

Staying at an Airbnb right above this lovely gallery with built in pizzeria. Highly recommend staying here and experienckng the food+atmosphere. I'm not one for beer, but this local sour was amazing and I would definitely drink it again. The empanadas came as an order of 3 but unfortunately it was too good to wait and you only get to see two ????.

Pizza was amazing! Vegan options were great. House chorizo sauce was delicious.

The staff are very friendly and helpful and their music was on point.

The drink list was also very good.

You really should check this place out while you're in town.
