Il Vicino Wood Oven Pizza - Albuquerque Heights

Joshua Oorlog

Come and enjoy this ABQ Italian tradition at the location that HASN'T been erased and turned into a gas station! Fantastic pastas, salads and pizzas, with a good wine and tap selection as a bonus. Owner & staff are always friendly and treat regulars (& new diners too!) like family. You'll be glad you tried it, and will definitely be back for more. 😊

First time at this location, and was thrilled with the experience here! The staff here were SUPER fantastic and so welcoming and warm. All around great time here thanks to the staff! Food was fantastic, and when I ordered extra cheese on the pizza, they actually delivered unlike most places. The spicy oil “Olio Picante” is amazing, and super flavorful as always. Seating was plentiful, and you could chose anywhere to sit, like the other locations. Enjoyed this location a lot, and will be back!

I have been to il Vicino a few times. It has very good pizza and my daughter would have her last meal be the fettuccine! The last time I went I was a little disappointed to be honest. It's not the cheapest place a meal drinks and a couple deserts came out to $117. You have to order and pay before you sit down, which is not very much fun if not everyone knows what they want. Poor planning on their part. Also asks to leave a tip before you've received the meal. I paid 17$ tip, feeling almost guilted. I believe in over tipping when the food and wait staff is excellent. As well as under tipping when the opposite,along with a verbal or written explanation as to why.long story longer, they brought are food and my wife's pizza was not made right, they made a different pizza by mistake. Then the waiter tried to tell her to kind of eat it anyway like, "what you don't like artichokes" which she didn't. Sometimes you want to try new things, other times you go to specific places because you have a specific taste you need in your mouth hole. This was one of those times for my wife. They did fix it but I felt bad for wanting to eat in front of her and she wouldn't take a slice from me. Deserts are fantastic I personally love the flourless chocolate cake. While my daughter likes the tera mousse. Il Vicino is unfortunately hit and miss. Their clunky ordering before you sit down slows down the process and rushes you unintendedly. If they have take out. Perhaps that's the way to be eat here.
