The pizza is California style which is not so good when you are a NYC transplant. Friendly service. Quite honestly the best pizza in ABQ is Giovanni's on San Pedro. Thanks for reading. The Bike Chaplain

The reviews on Trip Advisor were right - this place is really, really good. The mushroom pizza my wife and I split was outstanding and was sized just right for two. It was reasonably priced at about $15. We also split a bottle of a decent wine that was priced surprisingly low ($22). The big winner of the night though... More

I always try to eat here when in town. It's a great place to relax with your buds at the end of the day. Try to get in for an early dinner. It gets louder as time goes by. Noise gets me. But it's difficult to find a good restaurant that is not going to be noisy. Funky, artsy, in... More

Great pizza and terrific salad. Portions were large, food was really fresh and tasty. Just went once as we were visiting from East Coast and looking for fresh, healthy food and pizza for the kids and this place fit the bill perfectly. Funky and fun. Food was fast and there was no wait or hassle as others have mentioned. A... More

Great staff, great food but a HORRIBLY rude owner/host. He's the worst thing about this place. I've been a regular customer since they opened but I'm now having second thoughts about going back there thanks to this unpleasant little man. Had this been my first negative experience with him, I would let it go but tonight was the third time... More

Best pizza west of Connecticut or New York. We had the fungi and Martina pizzas. The thin crust was perfectly cooked -- just that true crisp bready taste with a hint of charred goodness on the bottom. Truly wonderful and served pretty quickly, too. Wish they'd open a branch in Seattle. I understand another one will be opening soon in... More

As a east coast transplant, I've been on the hunt for a first rate pizza for over 10 years. And OMG, I think I've found it at Farina. Salads are super fresh and quite generous. My Verde salad with a springmix lettuce, thin slice apples, gorgonzola cheese & walnuts with a sweet & tangy champagne vinaigrette was delectable. My boyfriend... More

On a recent trip, we had our first night's dinner in Albuquerque in this tiny charming restaurant. After sharing a Verde salad, I had a Fungi pizza and my daughter had a specially-created dairy-free pizza. She had a glass of local hand-crafted beer which she reported was absolutely delicious, and I had a glass of house red wine. I had... More
