What People Are Saying About Scalo

In Short – The light, airy interior boasts a sometimes-noisy open kitchen and a tiered dining room with a balcony and private dining room. There is also a darker, more intimate bar. Part of its self-perpetuating allure is that the place is always busy. The Northern Italian cuisine includes lots of pasta. Although cream-based dishes are the most popular, lighter options are available as are thin-crusted brick oven pizzas with toppings like pancetta, spinach, red peppers and goat cheese.

Cute interior with good food
by Lauren B at Citysearch
We tried this restaurant on Monday, which is half price wine night. I highly recommend the Cara Mia Pinot Noir, which comes in at $14 on half price night. I wrote a review about our food and service available on Associated Content. Search Lauren Blackketter and "Restaurants to Try Albuquerque New Mexico" (Citysearch wouldn't let me publish the link)
- Pros: half price wine on Mondays, great food
- Cons: paper coverings on tables

One of our favorites in town
by sandyroth at Citysearch
I was surprised to read all of the reviews about bad service. We eat here about twice a month, and love it. Twice, the manager has comped our entire food bill when our food orders have been delayed. They understand how to treat their regulars.
- Pros: great food, great service

Terrible, Incredibly Rude Service. Not recommended.
by Arizonanvisitor at Citysearch
Terrible service, rude snotty waitress, no polite acknowledgement of our presence to even get someone to seat us! They also don't serve 21 year olds wine (even three days AFTER their birthday has passed) because according to the waittress it's their policy to not even bother with people who have one of those vertical New Mexico licenses. Thank you Scalos for ruining my sisters night out-you will never have our business or recommendation again.
- Cons: Rude service, rude rude rude and snotty.
