Service was awesome..! We've eaten Italian food all over the world, including Italy, and I must say that M'tucci's ranks among the best, and the ambiance is exceptional. I wish we lived in Albuquerque so we could enjoy it more often... read more

I was looking for a place to eat after coming in from a flight and because of the time there were not too many places open. I walked down the street and found M'tucci's Bar Roma--they were busy but were willing to get me a table with a wait, which took about 20 minutes. When I was sat, the server approached right away and was able to get me a club soda with tajin, answered all of my questions anonymous the menu looking for pescatarian options and. I ordered the Caesar salad with no cheese and balsamic dressed instead. The blackened pollock was cooked perfectly and generous portion of veggies and sauce. Admittedly, I am giving it 4 stars because service slowed down as the night went on, my entree too much longer than anticipated to come out and I had to find my server to get the check. read more

The good: The regional Roman dish Linguine alla Gricia was the most authentically Italian preparation I've had anywhere outside of Italy. Bravo! Someone did their homework. The physical space is lovely. A great place to call home during a great meal. Why just 3 stars? The service. First, let me say it is my fault for sitting in the most trafficked area of the bar. I think we had four waitstaff attending to our every need ... except the need to relax and enjoy the meal. Our primary waitperson, a volume bartender, obsessively checked in with us every 10 minutes and was not quick on the uptake, because it was clearly bothering me. Management: If you are going to say things like this on your website: "designed to capture the authentic spirit and culture of la dolce vita (the sweet life). Founded with the goal of bringing a true "feel of Italy" to the Southwest" , please do your homework here as in the wonderfully curated and prepared menu. read more

Huge disappointment. Several locals recommended this place. The atmosphere inside and out is so adorable and fun. But my food/ I asked for no mushrooms and got no cream sauce. It looked off and felt off but I ate it anyway. I wish I had said something cause it tasted like oily noodles. No cream and sauce, just oil. I guess they did t like that I asked for no mushrooms. My friend enjoyed her meal but I can't speak for her. read more

M’tucci’s Bar Roma - Beef rigatoni in red wine cream sauce. The cream and the red wine was missing. It was very oily. I'm sorry I didn't send it back. - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

I had been to this location before and was a little disappointed this time. The portion sizes have change and the prices seem to have gone up. Service was excellent from the server that I had. While it was good not sure its worth the price. read more

My boyfriend and I went out to dinner with my work mom and her husband. It was wonderful! I like the ambiance in this location better than the others. It's in a historic area but the inside is chic, modern, and lively. Bold paint colors, unique bar and table sets, and they even have chandeliers hanging from the ceiling. The only caveat is that it is LOUD. Between the noise of eating, talking, and the music, it is difficult to hear each other. The service was excellent. I wish I could remember his name to give him a shout-out. He was knowledgeable about the menu and had great suggestions for drinks, appetizers and main dishes. He also, was friendly and funny, and took care of us without hovering but was somehow always there when we needed something. The food was excellent, with large portions, great flavors, clean ingredients and fresh new takes on a lot of dishes. I had the Sourdough Gnocchi with onions, brocolini, and added salmon. It was truly amazing! They had a blackberry shrub, which is non-alcoholic, that I was able to add alcohol to and it was delicious! We also had the calamari for an appetizer and it was beautifully done, perfectly cooked, with light breading, and excellent sauces to dip it in. If you haven't been, I would highly recomend you check it out! read more

It's been a while since I've been to Mi Tucci's bar and Roma, but I'm really pleased with all the effort they put into their menu and they're 30 minute at lunch 30 minute lunch is the best deal in Albuquerque no question with the choice of Soup or salad - seven different salad varieties and six different lunch entrées - although the entrées are served as a lunch portion there's plenty to eat and plenty of great choices ! My esteemed friend and I were royally served by one of the City's finest, Hope.... please ask for her as she is most affable! read more

This place is amazing because my bartender Jackson finally helped me perfect my dirty filthy martini that I loved. He figured out our food orders and helped us out and really got to know everyone in my party. That way, we all enjoyed our experience. The food itself was amazing, but I cannot give enough credit to Jackson himself. I will be back just for him.!!!! read more

Food was very good, service was exceptional VICTORIA! I have been gone for a long time after a bad experience & happy to say faith restored. Our table can recommend the Pasta Tartufo, truffle soup, salads, bruschetta, beef & rigatoni, & polenta. We tried shrubs, mocktails, and cocktails & enjoyed it all. A reservation before 6 got us a nice booth and no wait. Later there was live music, which isn't our bag, but we'll just not go on Wednesday read more

One of my go-to's when I'm in town. Love their pastas and they have excellent happy hour deals. Bolognese is one of my favorite dishes. This time the waitress mentioned each location has a different region of Italy it specializes in, this one is Roman. Some small lots to park in nearby but usually they're packed and I have to street park. read more

Ordered the linguini alla gricie lunch special. The salad was good (had their Caesar) and portions were a good size however the pork belly tasted like raw pork and seemed like it was just boiled to a snot like consistency. No flavor from the pork and I had expected it to have a crunchy texture when I ordered it. I would recommend staying clear of this dish. My wife ordered the eggplant which she said was good. It was a very small slice of eggplant, one slice fried, but she enjoyed it. Service was okay but never refilled our ice tea. Ambiance was nice and clean. read more

I finally had a chance to try M'Tucci's Bar Roma after it being on my list for a long while. I was there for dinner and got a chance to try their Black Truffle Artichoke soup, Linguine Alla Gricia and Lemon Cake. I thought they all tasted good. The portion was ok, a bit on a smaller side, if you are used to big American portion. The only thing was most of the dishes were a little too rich for my taste (yet they tasted good)! I liked the energy around the space and if you stop by at the right time, street parking surprisingly wasn't too hard to find. I want to definitely try to come back again to try other dishes. read more

I stopped in to M'Tucci's for dinner at the bar the other night and was delightfully surprised. The salad was well balanced with the pears, goat cheese, and blackberries, although the granola was an odd addition (not bad, just a bit unexpected for a salad). My cocktail was tasty and I could have had even more all night long if I didn't have to drive home. The pasta was delicious - although forewarning that the Pasta All'Arrabiata does have some kick to it. The bartender was prompt and kind, a delightful overall server. The atmosphere of the old garage on Route 66 really capped off the night. I loved my dinner here and would certainly recommend! read more

Wonderful happy hour with great drinks to choose from. Particularly delicious is the strawberry basil smash and the pink rabbit. I do wish they would add more alcohol. I'm quite the lightweight, but even for me a smidge more would be nice. I'm obsessed with their fried shrimp and calamari, absolutely delicious. The carne pizza is perfect! The service is kind and professional while the restaurant itself is cosy and nicely air conditioned. read more

Great spot in the Nob Hill area. Biggest issue is limited parking for what seems like a pretty busy location. I ended up parking on the street in the neighborhood a couple blocks down. Very nice dining space and bar seating, they even have a small outdoor dining area. Met up with a friend for dinner, had some drinks and appetizers - calamari and charcuterie board. The board was loaded up and filling so we didn't even make it to ordering entrees but it was delicious! Service was top-notch too so I look forward to visiting again in the future. read more

M’tucci’s Bar Roma - Charcuterie Board - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

A great place to take friends and family who are visiting from out of town. The big menu means everyone can find something they will enjoy. For me, there are several food items that I have found satisfactory (nothing that knocks my socks off, just consistently good). That being said, their homemade lemonchello is fantastic and I would go just for that! read more

M'Tucci's Bar Roma is a classic yet modern Italian eatery in the heart of Nob Hill, and heart it has indeed. You can tell the level of attention to detail from the ambiance to the food and drinks. A reservation is recommended or be prepared to wait, also if you are lucky you can find a spot at the bar. The staff is incredibly friendly and professional! I had the espresso martini, it was velvety, smooth and everything you want in the drink! The foam on top was perfectly dense and pillowy for the espresso beans to sit on top. Beautiful presentation and tasty! We also ordered some apps, charcuterie is a must! Also just the bread with olive oil on its own. We also had some crispy fried calamari and some short ribs. I'm not sure if their menu rotates, do be sure to ask your server for the current specials or offerings. We talked to Audrey, one of the managers and she made sure that our visit was absolutely perfect. Shout out to Audrey! If you are looking for classic and authentic, this place is a must, not to mention local! #supportlocal read more

Good ambiance and friendly service. The food was good but not amazing. It was missing basic seasoning on the bruschetta that made it pretty bland. My Caesar salad was swimming in dressing that made it hard to eat. The artichoke pasta was tasty but overly salty. The craft cocktail's were very good and I highly recommend the drinks. read more

Despite eating on a VERY busy and jam-packed night, M'tucci's Bar Roma somehow pulled through -- all due to their amazing and professional staff! They were slammed with wait times up to one hour yet we felt welcomed and taken care of.

! From start to finish M'tucci's Galentine's Brunch was amazing! We arrived at 11AM and headed to the back where they had opening seating for anyone who had made a reservation for the brunch! The set up was so cute and on theme! We started off with drinks and I got the Peach Please the NA mocktail which I appreciated they had the option!! It was peachy and frothy and so good! Like a peach ice cream! Next we got the Toasted Biscuits! A small Parmesan & Black Pepper Biscuit with some honey butter and for my entree I got the Italian Breakfast which was scrambled eggs, prosciutto cotto, crispy potatoes, tomatoes slices and toast! I'd say it was a bit on the warm/cold side but still tasted delicious! I also tasted the biscuits and gravy and those were fire!! The meal was finished off with a sorbet with limoncello which was very refreshing! The service and ambiance was everything we wanted for this experience and they did phenomenal! Can't wait for their next event! read more

Busy restaurant, also plenty of seating so the wait for larger parties appeared short. Just two of us so we sat immediately, and choose to enjoy the outside seating for a quieter atmosphere vs the bustling vibe indoors. The seating was comfortable and spacious, the noise of periodic hot rods was somewhat disruptive to conversation, but generally the street traffic added to ambience. Our server, Chau, was cheerful, energetic, welcoming, and complimented our dining experience. We visited a speak easy prior to our late-dinner plans so we stuck with entrees, although the wine and cocktail menu was tempting. We ordered Artichoke Ravioli and an 8oz Hanger Steak, every on both plates was delicious, the Crispy Salt Water potatoes are magical. Definitely worth revisiting, Next time we'll try the cocktails. read more

It was near end of the night but they were still cherry and were great with our desire to get a snack, got one of the Famiiglia Board. And a side of polenta(that stuff is to die for! Both were fantastic, I was told the cocktail my companion had was quite good, and our server piled me with the cold water I needed! Was glad to be out of there long before they were clearing out folks and really didn't feel rushed at all.. read more

Food was great but the management decided to cut our server mid service. His replacement was not as good as he was waiting tables and also making bar drinks. We much preferred our original waiter who gave some great advice for drinks and entrees and now we don't think he will get any of our tip. Management should not cut servers mid-service. read more

We enjoyed a delicious dinner and excellent service from our waiter Robert. The location is so cool, on Route 66 near the university, The evening we visited they introduced a new menu with classics, fresh innovative dishes and specials, The chickpea salad was a new item and we enjoyed it. The trout special was amazing. read more

M'tucci's Bar Roma is an excellent Italian restaurant located in the heart of Nob Hill. The menu is expansive, with plenty of variety to satisfy most dietary restrictions and preferences. The pasta is delicious (I particularly enjoy the lobster ravioli). The drinks, both alcoholic and otherwise, are well-crafted. Highly recommend it for a nice date night or other special occasions! read more

The service was good, even around closing time. I got the duck confit, and it was good, but didn't have the gamey flavor that I wanted. Everything is a bit too expensive, but not egregiously so. It had a nice atmosphere. read more

Came to M'tucci's for dinner on a Friday night without reservations & was able to get seated within 20 minutes. The hostess and waitress were friendly and lovely throughout my meal. The indoor seating was clean and spacious. You can order half plates of pasta to try more flavors, very cool. Glazed Ribs - (4.5/5) Amazing ribs and plentiful to share. There is a sweet glaze paired with bell peppers which I am not used to for ribs. Barramundi Special - (4/5) Delicious fish! Loved the pairing with the mashed potatoes and arugula. There was a bit too much arugula & the artichokes were very salty chunks/pieces. Linguine alla Gricia - (4/5) Cute dish with small pieces of pork belly. Pasta All'Arrabiata - (3/5) Solid dish, but the cheese and red pepper flakes were strong in this one. I would come back to try more of the menu, I heard the flat breads are must-try! read more

I loved everything! ! I've heard good things about all the locations and this was perfect before an opera showing at pope joy down the street.

Thanks for ruining my 16th wedding anniversary by hustling me off of our table that you only gave me an hour and a half to have dinner. Both the managers and hostess when we got there asked to hurry up as we need your table by 7pm. Our open table reservation, was at 5:45pm. We then got asked by management after ordering desserts, "are you going to be done as we need this table in 15 minutes". As we were leave we heard the hostess, tell the large table after us, "oh good they are leaving we can set you now". You guys use to be our go to date night stop. That's going to be a hard pass now read more

This was my second time at this location after two times at the I25 location and I definitely prefer Bar Roma. The atmosphere is great, the menu is more to my liking, service is always attentive without hovering. I didn't get a cocktail this time, but I sipped the two that were ordered and they were excellent. I always look forward to coming here and will come next time I'm in town. read more

We had dinner at M'tucci's Bar Roma with our daughter & son-in-law Friday night. Overall it was pretty good. We had a 6:00 reservation and waited about 8 minutes for a table. We were seated at a table near the door and then immediately asked to get up and move to the table beside it. Our waiter Zach was polite and professional. We ordered drinks. They arrived in a timely manner. My wine was good (not great). My husband had the hanger steak rubbed with espresso from the specials. It came with an autumn vegetable medley. His meal was fantastic. My daughter and I both ordered the eggplant parm. Hers came with two quite large slices, mine with two very small slices. The eggplant was cooked beautifully. It was crisp and had wonderful texture and flavor. The pasta that came with it, however, strange texture and dry. I asked for some marinara sauce to try to make it less dry and Zach was happy to bring some sauce. I thought the ambiance was nice. It was clean and pleasant, not too bright, not dim lighting. read more

Overall: M'tucci isn't traditional Italian but it is quite good if you want something that feels like a comfort meal. Food: 4 Braised Pork Cacio e Pepe Pizza: The pizza was excellent. The crust was thin but wasn't overly crispy. It had the right amount of bite and an excellent char. The pork was melt in your mouth tender. Pasta Tartufo: This was a decadent pasta similar to a carbonara. I didn't like the sauce that much because it felt a little grainy. Service: 5 The wait staff is always excellent. They are patient/careful with requests and dietary restrictions. They pay attention to your table without hovering or interrupting too much. Ambiance: 5 The restaurant is a great place to eat with friends or for a date night. The only con is that it's super hard to find parking in Nob Hill. read more

Excellent food. Way too loud inside. Anything from the bar is slow to receive. Glass of wine took 15 minutes. Servers are efficient and polite for the most part. Very disappointing experience the other day at lunch. One of the people in our party ordered from the lunch special column. It was supposed to come with a lemon cookie but when we asked about it we were told they didn't have any. The server said she'd bring a scoop of ice cream instead. She later came back and said her manager said she could not give him any ice cream. The server apologized and said it was her fault for offering it in the first place. The manager humiliated the poor waitress and disappointed us over a scoop of ice cream. Very poor judgment. read more

This M'Tucci's location is right on Central, Rt. 66, in Nob Hill. It's really nicely designed within the old mechanic garage building. It is a pretty fancy atmosphere with various rooms of tables and good ambiance. One thing I don't like is that it gets quite loud, and the tables could be a little more spread out. Additionally, there is a big outdoor patio in front that's nice to sit at on a summer night. The food is quite tasty and well-prepared, from drinks to appetizers, to pasta, to dessert. You can tell they take care with getting flavors, dishes, and presentations right. This is a good place for a special occasion or dressing up for a fun night out. read more

Great vibe on the patio plus delicious food. Price was mid-high range but evening seating was great for date night.

Everything we had was excellent and a much nicer overall experience than we expected when looking for a place to eat and watch a World Cup game while on vacation. The Bourbon & Berries cocktail was delicious, as was the bruschetta (large enough to serve 3). We can whole heartedly recommend the 5 Pork Bolognese, the Harris Ranch hanger steak with grilled asparagus and crispy salt water potatoes, and the Wagyu Beef Rigatoni. Our server Bobbie was attentive and knowledgeable, with the manager and bar staff also checking in. The Chocolate Budino cake with salted caramel drizzle was excellent, and our double espressos were delivered hot (a sign of a well run restaurant). The sleek bar divides the dining area into a seating area for a nice, quiet dinner and another, more casual area, with TVs to watch a game in a classier ambiance than a typical bar and grill. read more

Made dinner reservations on a Sunday. The place was very busy and loud. I thought this was a fine dining place but I'd reclassify it as a good Italian eatery with an urban vibe. It is in a restored gas station/garage. Lots of younger people 20s, 30s sipping cocktails. The bar was full. Very loud ambiance. Even with reservations, they sat us three big guys at a tiny bar table top. We asked for another table but the waiter scurried away too quickly to hear us. The food was an absolute 10! No doubt about it. We stuck to the classic Italian recipes. You can't go wrong with this. The service, however is where the lower rating comes from. It took 25 minutes to get my second glass of wine. We watched as our glasses ( finally after 20 mins) sat at the bar for 5 minutes before our server collected them and brought it to our table. We finished dinner 10 minutes before the wine came. (No 5 stars for this!) When our food was delivered, it took another 5 minutes to get Parmesan cheese and the black pepper never came! My friend ordered a side dish that arrived 15 minutes after his entree only because we inquired about it. I had meatballs added to my pasta. They were delicious. BUT, they were very tiny in size. Plan to add 4 balls, not 2 to your dish. We weren't impressed with our server but I have to say not all the late things were his fault. Some were, but most weren't. Still, I'd recommend he check back on his table more to see how things are going. We experienced lots of "service" issues despite the chef's food being so delicious. It is sad when restaurant staff tarnish a great chef's reputation. I recommend you try this place at a less busy time. Try lunch. Or try a slower week day. I'd avoid the weekends. read more
