Best Lunch Restaurants in Mattapan

Great food and wonderful service. Bella was amazing!!!

The service is incredible! So attentive and knowledgeable about the menu! Thanks to Luis for his wonderful suggestions for a great lunch!

Lively spot in Southie, with multiple sports screens, good beer, and yummy bites for brunch or lunch (maybe dinner too but we were there at noontime). My southern egg and maple sausage sandwich was a vast improvement over fast-food versions. My husband loved the short rib eggs Benedict. Both dishes were reasonably sized portions. We visited on a Saturday when it was busy and were glad we made a reservation!

We enjoy eating here - most dishes are fresh, creative and delicious. Service is usually solid but our wait staff yesterday was clearly having an 'off' day and was rather sullen. We would have indicated that fact in the size of our tip but the restaurant gives you no choice ion that matter and charges 20% minimum tip no matter what.

Terra is an absolute masterpiece of a restaurant! The Italian food here is nothing short of spectacular—every dish is crafted to perfection, and the flavors are unforgettable. The wine selection is equally impressive, with thoughtful pairings that elevate the dining experience to a whole new level. A special shoutout to our server, Vinicius, who made the evening truly extraordinary. His knowledge of the menu, attention to detail, and warm, professional demeanor added so much to our experience. He went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect, and we left feeling absolutely spoiled. If you’re looking for exceptional Italian cuisine, an incredible wine list, and top-tier service, Terra is the place to be. Highly recommend!
