M'tucci's Italian

What went well??? Everything!My friends and I came to Albuquerque for comic con weekend. On Saturday night we were looking for a place to have a decent meal and our fingers stumbled upon this place on our map app. At 9:30pm there was plenty of seating available for us. We had a Goldilocks of a server, just-right attentive and informative. I say informative because lately I've been stumbling upon servers who can't answer questions about the menu that they're serving from. We ordered a bottle of prosecco and a charcuterie board to start. And then I ordered one of the best pasta all'arrabiata dishes I've ever had. It had a nice hearty sauce with some kick served over a corkscrew shaped noodle. We were told that the pastas were made fresh in-house. From greeting to goodbye, everything about our experience went as it should. Outstanding service, fabulous food, and great value.Manager, if you want to recognize your employee for a job well done, it was the dude with the black nail polish ;)

Went with friends friend from work for our post Christmas/ new year get together. The place was busy but we were seated right away. We did the prix fixe menu and it was delicious. Server was great and food rolled out perfectly!They did a nice job on the wine pairing!

I really liked the chipotle chicken pasta. I felt like the sauce was good but would be even better with cracked pepper and some chili flakes so I added that when I got home. It was awesomeness The fried Brie is the most popular thing here but mine ended up being the only dish I had that wasn't hot :( . So I can't tell if I would have liked it or not because I didn't get to experience it the way it should have been. I ended up getting cold fried Brie! The potato soup with the crunchy leaks was pretty good too. It had a nice flavor and it felt like a good summery soup. All in all I was glad I got to try matucci. It didn't knock my socks off but it was a good meal nevertheless.

Ambiance is great and we love coming for brunch it is quick and not busy and delicious

Had the Price Fixe dinner last night!WOW !!3 course meal with a small pour of wine with each course. $30/person , best deal around! The food was amazing and the service was spot on. They only do it at this location and only on Wednesday nights. They usually post the PF menu on Tuesday afternoons or Wednesday mornings.I'm going back next week and taking a few friends with.

We went to the location Central Ave. There are 4 restaurants in Albuquerque all locally owned. Each has a different theme. The one we attended is based on Rome so the dishes may vary. My husband and I had the custom charcuterie board where we got to pick the meat, cheese and spread. My husband had the spaghetti and meatballs and I had a small pecan salad and an order or risotto. We also had the order of different breads. I also had a cocktail with just the right amount of alcohol. Prices were reasonable and the food was delicious. The bread was soft inside and crunchy on the outside. Delicious. Parking is off street but there's a garage nearby. The only thing I didn't enjoy is that the tables for 2 people are very close together. The bigger tables have more privacy.

Sadly the food has gone downhill. For a self proclaimed scratch kitchen it seems over rated and the cost for something simple and not enough is sad. I am on board with food prices skyrocketing but for an average salad and soup not even a combo for 30.00 is insane We have choices and we choose not to return. The manager that evening was so insincere and tried to make us feel like we were the ones that was loosing out. Not even dude.

Service was great for being such a busy restaurant,the food was excellent,never had a bad experience at this place Ambiance A little noisy but not enough to interfere in a good conversation. Excellent

The food was excellent but the service and treatment we received was some of the worst I have ever experienced. We went for Valentines lunch both me and my husband took off work to enjoy a special outing. We were seated and waited over 20 minutes to even be addressed by the waitress who seemed to intentionally ignore us and it was very quiet and slow throughout the restaurant. We ordered a bread plate two lunches and a side of risotto. We again waited and were finally given drinks and all the food at once. We did not receive the ricotta cookies listed on the menu but were too annoyed to bring it up. Being the observant person I am, I saw other diners receive their salads and breads prior to the main courses along with sugars for the tea etc. We did not receive the same service and it was both obvious and disappointing. It's a shame.

Honestly love the ambience, drinks, and food, but I was really put off by the service. I respect the management here too, but am starting to question it due to the bartender hired. It really brought me down. When I walk into a place and spend my money after working hard, I expect good service. I expect to connect with someone kind. I witnessed a customer being treated really negatively on 2/20/25. I saw it from afar and just left the business because the negativity by the bartender was so off putting. Just so much aggression was radiating off from her. With a world filled with so much hate right now, it made me really sad to see that she was carrying that towards her customers. I know everyone has a bad day and I empathize with that, but seeing this from afar, really rubbed me the wrong way.
