Die besten italienischen Restaurants in Downtown Albuquerque

I had the gnocchi and added chicken for protein. The dish came mixed with green beans and asparagus but was only supposed to have green beans. The chicken was tender but lacked flavor and was on the edge of being dry. There was minimal sauce and had too many vegetables to protein/gnocchi ratio. My boyfriend had the hangar steak and he said it was great. The noise level in the restaurant was very loud to the point we couldn’t speak to each other during the meal. Out of all the M’tucci’s this was my least favorite. I will give them another chance because I understand they were busy.

Our meal was delicious and service was good. I appreciated the effort in making my dessert special.

We had nowhere to go on Christmas. This was surprisingly good. They were on it. Food, service, ambiance, crowd—all was pleasant. We enjoyed it. Accommodating.

This was our 3rd Time Dining at Scalo. Once again, a five star experience from beginning to end. Hospitality, ambience, quality of menu selections, service and quality of meals was exceptional. Will repeat again and again at Scalo.

We had eaten at 2 other M'Tucci restaurants and this was our first time at the one closest to us (Coors and Montano, NW). We decided to try their Wed. night special at the bargain price of $30/person. We made a reservation about an hour ahead and were glad that we had. The restaurant was quite full. There were no choices on the special and no substitutions. I probably would not have ordered any of the dishes on the special but we were pleasantly surprised and pleased. The appetizer was a bruschetta topped with mussels. My husband adored this. I thought it was very good. It came with a small glass of a pleasant chardonnay. The main course was hangar steak with roast potatoes. I asked for mine to be cooked medium rare, I was told, you couldn't specify how you wanted it cooked, on the special. Our steaks came out medium rare and were exceptionally tender and flavorful. This was served with a small glass of Cabernet. Dessert was a pumpkin swirl cheesecake. This was the weakest of the courses but we still ate every bite. It was served with a moscato dessert wine. All the portions were small but we didn't leave hungry. Service was excellent in spite of how busy it was. We definitely will return for the Wed. special and will try other things as well. This may become our go to local restaurant.
