Best Authentic Restaurants in University of New Mexico South

Overall good food but not great and same for service. Chantilly cake was dry. Red chile chicken was good but slightly dry texture. Service was slow, had to wait far to long for refills and ordering new drinks.

Such a cute place to dine, especially when you have something to celebrate. I did a Galnetines celebration with my girlfriends and the food was good and the drinks were strong and kept flowing .we would definitely come again

We made reservations a couple of months ago to celebrate our Valentine’s Day dinner along with my husband‘s birthday. This is our first time here at Mattucci’s and it has been by far the greatest experience overall! We tried different entrées which were succulent and spectacular. For dessert we ordered the tiramisu, we were expecting the typical squared cubed tiramisu dessert. However, we were greatly surprised with a new version of tiramisu fabulously decorated. I’m so delicious that we wanted seconds thank you for the management and all the staff for this great experience and the ambience. Oh my gosh, the best!

My wife and I went to celebrate 20 years since we got engaged here. Our waitress, Trinity, was a delight. My wife had the chicken Marsala which was very tender and tasty. I had the branzino which was delicate and paired wonderfully with the mushroom risotto. The dessert, tarte tatin, was the perfect cap for the meal. The entire staff was friendly and made this a special evening.

It was a quieter night and had a great dinner with friends! We enjoyed all their dishes and there was a nice acoustic guitar player creating a very relaxing yet joyful ambiance. Definitely would come back!
