This restaurant is the best. I brought my girlfriend here and she is really picky. We got the Penne al Forno and she loved it! The wine was great and the service was prompt. I’d come again!

I mean, Italian food in abq is notoriously bad, this was no exception. Wet, soggy, severely overcooked pasta. Wasn’t even tossed in sauce. Just a wet runny mess. Chicken parm is a classic, this was obnoxiously bad. Waited so long for the food….I could’ve made pasta dough, extruded it, and cooked it properly in the same amount of time. Limit that menu size and make something that’s actually worth the price. MAMA MIA!

What a neighborhood gem. Literally a 5 minute walk from our front door. My first time in. Greeted and say immediately. Merry Jim the friendly neighborhood, knowledgeable bartender who had been there since they opened 8 years ago. I ordered some housemade meatballs with fresh basil and freshly made, delicious marinara and homemade sourdough. A de-constructed MB sub if you will. EEOV for dipping. Balsamic vinegar and a velvety smooth Spanish red vino that was entirely complimentary to the whole thing. Then I was fortunate enough to meet Rockstar Chef Peter! His baby/brainchild/heart of a restaurant PIATANZI is definitely a 5 star winner ? for me! I plan on spending many an evening with my new neighborhood favorite! ??⭐?Thank you!

Always a good experience with great Italian food.Would be 5 star but they charge if you want more than one piece of bread and they tried to charge us for bringing in our own birthday cake.So as long as you don't want extra bread or bring your own cake, you'll probably enjoy this place.

Atmosphere was quiet, service was ok, food was ok. What we ordered didn't match what was served. I know it's minor , but what I ordered was supposed to be fettuccine not penne. Dessert was supposed to have pine nuts but had pomegranate seeds..not bad, but didn't match up.

Had pizza, salad and wine. Food was great, upscale-kinda. The service, our waitstaff in particular, not so much. Thankful the other waitstaff stepped up to help when ours didn’t.
We had pasta and bruschetta and it was delicious. Service was outstanding and prices were fair. I would come back to try some other dishes.

Great food but their phone just calls a fax line. It's been years and they haven't fixed it. Wish they would make ordering easier.

This place is in a unique location and was surprised by this. The service was very good and prompt. There is a good selection of foods and well priced. Quiet atmosphere. Nice to get away from the commercial type restaurants.
