Il Vicino Wood Oven Pizza - Albuquerque Heights

This place has typically been great because of atmosphere, italian food and friendly staff. However, recently ordered a house salad which was disgusting and very poor quality; half the lettuce was far past its shelf life, black and not edible. Seems like staff needs to do a better job of quality control or at the very least checking salads to make sure customers are not being served food that is clearly expired and could make people sick. Hope the salads and quality of food improve to support this restaurants food matching the ambiance.

Last two times we have ordered from here for pickup we have received a pretty much barren pizza. We ordered double ham and received what I would call less than single ham. This is a recent change, we have always had great pizzas from here.

This was definitely on my top list for italian food. The young female who took our order was very polite and informative. The young man who Was our waiter and sat us, Was very polite and funny, Talkative, And had a great personality. The manager who came out talked with us for quite some time. Very nice, man, very professional. Now for the food. I ordered a calazon. Perfect! Whatever kind of marinara they use there is great. There's actually eggplant in it, And honestly for canned eggplant, It was Very good. The only bummer is , they did not have an eggplant parmesan with like a side or plate of spaghetti. That would have been awesome.I love trying to eggplant from All the Different italian restaurants I go to. All in all everything was five star. The food was not cheap , but it was not expensive. For myself , fiance and child , we paid less than 58.00. Plus around 15.00 in a tip due to how great everything was. Also to mention , we got there at about 9:35PM. They still sat us and did not complain. We did try to hurry. But still, their service did not lack. We will definitely Bay back and we highly recommend this.If you are looking for something italian. Message to the owners, please get eggplant parmesan added to your menu.

We celebrated my nephew's birthday at Il Vicino Wood Oven Pizza in Albuquerque Heights, and it was an unforgettable experience! From the moment we walked in, the staff were friendly and accommodating. We had a large party of 12 and arrived 15 minutes early, but they seated us promptly. The ordering process was efficient, with each party ordering separately at the front. Our family of five shared a delicious cheese pizza, salmon salad, and a specialty pizza with Alfredo sauce. The house wine was a great value, but I opted for the more expensive glass at $10, which was well worth it. Our family in the party also tried the lasagna, salad, panini, and tiramisu from the rest of the family's orders, and everything was top-notch. We also got complimentary birthday dessert! It was very nice! What truly made our experience stand out was our server, Grigori. He mentioned it was his first day, but you'd never know. He was attentive, knowledgeable, and provided exceptional service! I highly recommend Il Vicino Wood Oven Pizza for special family events, date nights, or simply a delicious dinner out. We can't wait to come back!

I come to this sweet spot at least once a week on date night with my son. We order margaritas pizza, Pasta and salad. Food is always consistently great and service is amazing. If you are looking for a brick oven pizza place. This is it. They have sandwiches, salads and other healthy options too. I rated ot 5 star because its has not failed me since I have been consistently there for last 3 years.
