Finally made it to Silvio’s! First of all, the service was absolutely impeccable. It was a very busy Friday night, but we were still very well taken care of. Our server, Ryan, was friendly, knowledgeable and attentive. Silvio came out to check on us multiple times throughout our meal, and as visited every other table as well. Second, the food. 🤤All the food. There’s complimentary bread which was quite good. We started with antipasto and it was a perfect starter. My guy had a Caesar salad and I had a grilled romaine salad. Both were phenomenal. For our main course, I had the aglio e olio with shrimp, which was a perfect savory blend of garlic and red pepper spice. He got the special, which was actually a grilled ribeye topped with grilled onions and mushrooms, garlic whipped potatoes and grilled corn on the cob. Silvio said “I don’t do steaks, but my chef wanted to do ribeye, so I did.” And it was delicious! The special also came with an espresso crème brûlée that was to die for. We had espresso to drink with dessert as well. Long story short, recommend this hidden gem in the heart of Saint Matthew’s. Make a reservation, it was packed and Silvio said it’s normally even more busy than tonight.

DERBY EVE... right after The Oaks...no reservation.. no problem! Greeted and seated with smiles. The owner and Chef came to our table not once but twice to be sure everything was perfect. AND IT WAS! Our server was their pretty daughter, and her suggestions for the evening were spot on. I haven't enjoyed a meal like that in a LONG time! You will feel at home, want to hug everyone when you leave, and come back soon! Thank you all for a delightfull evening!

Went for dinner with my boyfriend, aunt, and dad. We all loved our dishes! I had the mussels as an entree and I could drink the white wine cream sauce they came in! Boyfriend and aunt had the spaghetti and meatballs and it was delicious! Don't remember what my dad got and I didn't try it but he said it was delicious. We also enjoyed the toasted ravioli special appetizer. Service was great and the owner stops by tables to say hi. Highly recommend for a nice dinner!

It is rare that you find a place that has amazing food with equally amazing service. From the moment we entered the restaurant, I felt like I was visiting family. Bill (owner/chef) and his wife Caron (owner) have created an environment and tasty authentic Italian food like no other. Their interaction and genuine care for the guests was so welcoming. Our server/bartender, Debbie, was so warm and friendly and they all treated us like family. We came for the wonderful food and stayed for the immaculate service. Will 100% be back. 1000/10 recommend.
