Lino's Trattoria & Pizzeria

Food -  AMAZING pizza and salads. Great wine offerings. Plentiful and reasonable price. Would love to eat that again. Ambiance - lovely place. Great music and noise level perfect. Enjoyed having a separate room for families with kids - we didn't know they were there until they were leaving! Service - Table was small for 2 ppl. If serving pizza, should consider using pizza stands / risers since they take so much room. Table was sticky but tablecloth or butcher paper is not provided. Napkins were provided instead. Our server was animated but his service didn't match - we refilled our wine, had to ask for more silverware, disappeared for a while...

We are so glad to discover this place. We've lived in the area for 30 years now and been meaning to try it for years. The food was fabulous. We both had the Sophia Loren pasta with shrimp. The homemade fettuccine and tomato cream sauce was so fresh, authentic and delicious. Can't wait to go back.

Three of us shared a 10" pizza and one pasta entree. This was PLENTY of food! As tourists, we had no way to take anything left over. The staff was friendly, and the beer/wine options and cocktails all reasonably priced as was the food. We would definitely return and recommend this little place to others!

A cozy neighborhood Italian restaurant with wonderful food and great service. The lasagna is fantastic and the bottle of chianti we all shared was lovely at a good price. A real gem!

The food was delicious and the service was impeccable. The outdoor patio was quiet and lovely.

Excellent everything! Had dinner plans elsewhere but we sat a long time waiting for our table. Looked around online to see what was close to us and set a reservation at Lino's. That was a good decision. The salad was excellent. The chicken parmigiana was great. I loved the sauce! So good!

Why change if I like fettuccine de mare which i have when in Santa Fe. this visit, Theresa and I began with appetizer, mussels in spicy tomato sauce, possibly cilantro and red pepper flakes - a flavorful new take from the French who do wine wine, lemon. I recommend the mussels as an entree, maybe add other fish.

We dined last year at Lino's and really enjoyed the atmosphere and the food. So we made a reservation for this year's visit to Santa Fe, for 10 people. Upon arrival we were greeted with a snippy comment that the reservation was for only 6, because that's all the system would allow. She huffed a few times and said they'd have to rearrange the (half full) dining room for us.
Our server, Mike, was also snippy and short with us, frequently interrupting us to let us know that he was entirely too busy for us.
Our food was fine, but the attitudes displayed to us were unfriendly. They were obviously annoyed with our presence. I don't really plan to return there.
And people who can't serve customers courteously shouldn't be working in a restaurant where service is a requirement. Of course the tip was automatically added to our check. But poor service and bad attitudes for a table of 10 don't deserve a tip any more than poor service for a table of 1 or 2.

The food was tasty and hot. The service was mediocre. We had to ask for drink refills. We would probably not go back.

Food and service was very good. Wine and cocktails were superb. Salads and desserts were great. Pizza was tasty but a bit too floppy for me.

Burnt the chicken parm to a crisp. Tried to cover it up with cheese.
Language barrier with staff. They didn't know the menu.
Like eating inside an oven. Uncomfortably hot.
Hard pass. Would not recommend.

Thus is by far the best Italian place I have been too. You should come here when you can

Didn’t care for this spot, the food was janky and the owner was rude.

Always a pleasure to dine at Lino's! We have been there several times and keep going back.

This is a pizza take out review only. First experience was terrible and so was the second. I’ll trust most of the favorable in-house dining reviews of the food and try it at some point, but I’ll never do pizza take out again. Soggy and floppy and nothing to brag about. Overpriced for the quality. I ordered 4 pizzas —one with vegan cheese— which should have been identified. Despite the soggy pizza, I encourage folks to patronize this business and all the others affected by the extended, disruptive road construction.
