M'tucci's: an Italian restaurant family in Albuquerque
Since 2013, and still made here.
From Manhattan to Albuquerque
After 23 years of culinary experience in Manhattan, M’tucci’s opened its first Italian restaurant in Albuquerque in 2013. Today, our four locations across Albuquerque and Rio Rancho, full-service catering company and intimate speakeasy share one purpose: serving thoughtfully prepared Italian food and welcoming every guest like family.
House-Made Italian Food, Crafted With Purpose
M’tucci’s is a Life Betterment Company committed to making exceptional Italian food from scratch. Our chefs craft house-made pasta, breads, cheeses, cured meats and sauces using carefully selected ingredients. This dedication has earned M’tucci’s recognition as Best Italian Restaurant from Albuquerque The Magazine readers for nine consecutive years.
Partnerships That Strengthen New Mexico
We believe local restaurants thrive when their communities thrive. M’tucci’s proudly works with Mandy’s Farm in Albuquerque’s South Valley, Albuquerque and Rio Rancho Public Schools, the Albuquerque Sign Language Academy and organizations supporting autistic individuals and people experiencing homelessness. Through fundraising, education, events and shared meals, we help strengthen communities across Central New Mexico.
Serving Albuquerque Beyond Our Restaurants
M’tucci’s is more than an Italian restaurant group. Our chefs visit local schools to share culinary knowledge, support community initiatives and introduce students to restaurant careers. This work has earned recognition from EXPO New Mexico, the New Mexico Family Friendly Business Awards, the National Restaurant Association and the Rust Award for Excellence in Ethical Business Practice.
Proud Supporters of New Mexico Athletics
M’tucci’s believes local athletics can unite and strengthen communities. We proudly support New Mexico United, UNM Athletics and other regional teams and events—and we are always happy to keep the players well fed with house-made Italian food.
Celebrating New Mexico’s Local Makers
Since opening in Albuquerque, M’tucci’s has built lasting relationships with New Mexico breweries, wineries, farms and artisans. Our pairing dinners frequently feature local partners such as Steel Bender Brewyard, Santa Fe Brewing Company, Sheehan Winery and Gruet Winery, bringing regional craftsmanship to the M’tucci’s table.
Global Inspiration, Local Italian Flavor
Great cooking begins with curiosity. M’tucci’s chefs and culinary partners travel to learn from respected food professionals, explore regional traditions and discover new techniques. From Tuscany to Lima, every experience inspires the Italian cuisine we serve in Albuquerque and Rio Rancho.
