We come here pretty often. We came tonight and they were just so busy. There was an estimated 30 minute wait and people lining up outside. I can't express how efficient, quick, kind and friendly the staff was. We got seated relatively quick. The team updated us frequently, they were honest and said they were full and had catering orders as well but that would get situated promptly. We got our drinks and bread super fast. The food didn't take too long either. Everything tasted so delicious. I absolutely love their tomatoes basil soup. And our picky eater genuinely enjoys the chicken Alfredo. Lauren, Evan and Savanah were so great to us. Huge props to these three for their hustle and amazing customer service. We'll be sure to return soon.

We stop here twice a year when we are passing through Las Cruces for the night-- have done this for several years and neglected to write a thank you-- this is a wonderful restaurant that makes you feel like you're part of the family. All the staff are friendly and attentive, and they handle the crowds calmly. I love the spaghetti with meat sauce while my husband loves the fettucine alfredo; the bread is addictive and the Caesar salads are superb. Looking forward to returning again in November.

Came here for the first time tonight and it was busy. The server was very kind and food was amazing. I love how they all help each other. Vince also walked around greeting customers which was amazing he is a great owner. Definitely give this place a shot.

What a wonderful dining experience at Lorenzo's. We are on a spring break roadtrip and chose this place. On entering at 5pm on a Thursday the place was pretty much full, but we were seated within 5 minutes. The menu is extensive and well thought out. Prices seemed very reasonable, but the magic was on the back page. There are for choices where you can order a trio of samples that may up a full meal. I had the spaghetti and tomato sauce, with chicken Alfredo and green chili lasagna. It was amazing. The bottomless homemade bread was to die for!What made this place extra special for us was our server Tony, who was also one of the owners. Where do you see this, an owner actually working the dining room.? He was warm, friendly and busting with personality. I believe his brothers are the the head chefs. To top it off was when his Mom, Mary, came out from the kitchen to say hello, bring us a portion of tiramisu, that was actually made in Sicily and flown over regularly! Don't leave without trying it! There's a lot of love, passion and tradition that goes into the food at Lorenzo's. These's a reason a restaurant has been around for 30 years. We will be back if we are ever in this area. Don't pass by without stopping in.

This is now one of my favorite restaurants in Cruces. Presentation, atmosphere, and quality were all five stars. You can tell pasta is made in house and it is delicious! I had the ravioli this time and it was incredible, but I can’t wait to try others when we go back. If you are looking for a variety of food in Cruces, start here.

So because it's in the middle between where you want to go, spend no expectations. But woah, this place is one piece of southwest gem. From their flavorful exquisite Italian in the desert menus (who would've thought) to the staff, sincerely great and amazing eats..

LORENZO'S had great food. The service was excellent and not too long of a wait. We had the green chilli lazanga it was very good however the sauce was oddly sweet. It tamed a bit with the dish. I would eat there again.
