Matia Kitchen

This was our first visit to the islands / Orcas and a Google search recommended this place. We made early reservations to get in and so happy we got to experience one of the best meals we’ve ever had - ever, not just on the islands. This is a “foodie” place for sure where the menu reads with creative complexity (my boyfriend fully admitted to our sever that we didn’t know what the menu was offering) but the words leave the menu with poetic presentation within each bite. I had the black cod / literally the best seafood dish I’ve had. They were also very kind and helpful with customizing the menu to my gluten food allergies which is always appreciated. I especially appreciated the locally-sourced ingredients.

Celiac Friendly!!! Having to eat gluten free can make eating out challenging, but not here :) I had my choice of about half the dinner menu, with little to no modifications. The portion sizes were great for sharing and everything was SO good! All of the staff were friendly, helpful and seem to genuinely enjoy working there and with each other, makes for a great atmosphere. When it sounded like the dessert my husband ordered was a no-go for me to try, the chef himself brought me a perfect sized gluten-free version so I didn’t miss out. Hands down would recommend, and definitely plan to eat here again. Thanks again Matia for making this gluten-free girl’s night!
