Il Localetto Rossi

I will be back! Impeccable service and the most delicious food! I devoured the mushroom bruschetta and highly recommend the chicken saltimbocca and chicken parmesan romano. I'm sure everything is delicious, and I can't wait to sample the rest of the menu.

First time trying this lovely Italian spot. The food was full of authentic Italian flavors. Sky was very attentive providing excellent service. This will definitely be a regular place for my Italian cravings.

I normally never post a review online about my food experience. But I happened to be in ABQ for the weekend for a race and my brother and I found this restaurant. The location was close to our hotel so we ordered take out and ate in the hotel.
The food was divine!! We got the spaghetti and meatballs and chicken parmesan. Both pastas melted in our mouths and the sauces were delicious. I usually have a hard time finding a good italian restaurant because the sauce is too greasy, oily, heavy or filled with creme. But the food we ordered was perfect 👌.
Lastly we got the tiramisu and it was the BEST I ever had. It was light and not too sweet.
HIGHLY recommend this restaurant and we will be back the next time we are kn the area!!!

Four friends enjoyed four great meals! Each was well prepared and delicious. Server was wonderful, the room is cozy and the food is incredibly good. One of the best meals ever.

Food and Service 5 stars!! Extremely impressed with the food! Everything was delicious! Best Italian food in Albuquerque

Searching for the best Italian food in Albuquerque!

Extremely good Italian food at very reasonable prices. We ordered 3 different dishes and could not find fault with any of them.

We were visiting and looking for a great Italian restaurant. This was rated a 4.7, and I can understand why. The service was a 5, the food was definitely 👌 a 10 if that was possible. Our waitress had the prettiest smile and very, very friendly. If we're ever in Albuquerque we will be dining there again.

Went on a much needed date night everything was great except once I got home I had the shrimp scampi and been sick all night throwing up made me so sick . We totally planned on returning but after how sick I got no way.

Our first time trying Italian food at IL Localetto Rossi, and we were pleasantly surprised! This hidden gem is such a charming little restaurant. We absolutely loved the food—especially the chicken Parmesan and the spaghetti with meatballs. Highly recommend!

Great, comfortable little restaurant. Hidden off of central, but it’s quiet and the food is great, prices and portions are fair.

The meatballs are phenomenal, the pesto tortellini is my favorite of what we tried here, the cheese ravioli is also great. The caprese salad was huge and delicious as well.

Arnold palmer is made with unsweetened tea, as a heads-up, no complaints

The staff was wonderful and good with kids

I would rate higher, but a true Italian restaurant would serve at least beer and wine. It is NOT difficult now to get a liquor license. Won’t be back until you do!

This was the worst Italian food I've ever had. I don't usually write reviews but I felt that this food deserved it. I ordered the eggplant parmesan. I found that the pasta was overcooked, the eggplant was not seasoned at all, and the marinara sauce was just chopped tomatoes and onions. It was very unpleasant. Also the bread tasted awful. It all seemed like it was frozen and from Costco. I also found it bizarre that they didn't have a wine list. This was an abysmal attempt at Italian and one that I would not recommend to anyone.
