The anonymous exterior gives way to a warm, inviting, upscale interior of exposed brick with broken plaster walls filled with Trompeloeil Murals reminiscent of an Italian Piazza. The warm, aromatic, homemade Italian Bread is addictive. The rich Italian menu features fresh seafood, steaks, grilled pork chops, veal & chicken as well as homemade Italian sausage, and pastas, all prepared using tried and true family recipes.

Both the service and food were excellent. Would definately go back again. This is the best Italian restaurant in Albuquerque.
So far, best italian I've had in Albuquerque. I recommend the lasagna and a glass of the house cab. If you aren't in the mood for heavy pasta, then go for the fried calarmi salad. Stay for desert and have the tiramisu and coffee. After all, the place has a clean, comfortable ambiance and good lighting.
Come here for lunch if you want the best bang for your buck. Everything I eat here is amazing. This is my go to ABQ special event, treat, reward resturant. The bread with oil (Ask for balsamic) and a brutis add anchovies, is the way to start any meal. My most recent love is the shrimp tortalini in a cream sauce, but it is all wonderful! The sweets at the end are also worth getting into. :-)
The food is superb, the booze flows free, the conversation is down right peculiar and the staff is angelic
Great way to celebrate our 16th anniversary. Great food, great atmosphere, and good service.
This is our fourth time visiting this restaurant and we have always had excellent service. I lived in Sicily for five years and would go to Trombino's every week if I live in the same city.
Good Italian in Albuquerque with many fresh seafood selections and a legit Chicken Parmesan.
