Busy time of the year but the staff handled it well. Food is always good and consistent. Definitely get a reservation so you don't have to wait too long. Our server was very nice and positive considering how busy it was, very professional.

We eat here almost every time we come to Albuquerque. Has been consistently good for 20+ years. This evening we started with the burrata which was very tasty. Wife had the tagliatelle and I had the cavatelli pasta. Both were delicious. Cocktails we started with were prepared perfectly. Decent wine list with a good selection of by the glass wines. Service was a bit slow due to several large tables and being one server short, but the manager checked on us several times and our server was friendly and efficient.
