FARINA DOES NOT MISS. This place is incredible. The atmosphere is incredible, the staff is incredible, the freaking food is incredible. I have never once been disappointed by Farina. It’s really challenging to find a good salad in Albuquerque. Farina, however, has salads that are always delicious with the freshest ingredients and they change up daily. The pizza, their specialty, is obviously amazing. It’s truly one of those restaurants that deserves all of the love.
Cozy pizza bar with a genuine Italian feel. Service is incredible. Tables are tightly spaced, so we heard everything our neighbor table had to say. A great menu with options for everyone (including GF pizza dough). Funghi Pizza crust was delish (especially with the cream sauce), but the onion overpowered the flavor (and I love onion). Be sure to tip your car attendant outside.

GREAT FOOD! My husband and I agreed the shrimp pasta is amazing and the best pasta we've ever had. The pizza was light and airy too, you can easily eat a whole one between the 2 of us. 🍕
The mozzarella and tomato salad wasn't the greatest but I'm not a huge fan of tomatoes. We were also elbow length away from 2 other couples sat right next to us, but I guess you have to have tables right next to eachother in a limited space like that. Just be aware you could sit very close to other people and they'll hear you're whole convo if they're busy! The only part of the experience we didn't like. but no fault to them, glad we were able to get a table.
The pizza was phenomenal. I ordered the meat pizza with salami, pepperoni, and prosciutto and would highly recommend it. The 14” pizza is more than enough food for one person.
The service we received was outstanding, and I really enjoyed the atmosphere. Definitely a gem of Albuquerque.
Great experience here. My only recommendation would be to switch from the tiny greasy pepperonis to Old World style aged pepperoni. They taste much better, have a better spread across the pizza, (You don't have to use as many) not as greasy and better for the establishments investment. This would be my only recommendation and I have no complaints. Our order was 2 Pizzas which were the Margarita for my daughter and the Carni for myself. My wife had the pork shoulder sandwich on ciabatta and it was phenomenal!!! Everything was great. For dessert, I would definitely recommend the Tiramisu. It's house made and fantastic as well.
The Funghi and vegan special pizzas were both delicious and paired nicely with the dry Italian white wine we tried. We were seated within 5 minutes despite being in the middle of the dinner rush around 7pm, and our server was quick and friendly. We got the last tiramisu of the night which was delicious 😋. It was beautiful on the patio. I will definitely be back.
Wonderful place with excellent pizza! Highly recommend some bread and olive oil! The spices and garlic they put in the oil is out of this world!
Visiting Albuquerque and came across this gem. The Meatballs Al Forno Balsamic is amazing and tried their special avocado salad and verde salad. Pizza we ordered Salsiccia and it was really good. This is a great place to eat and the ambience is casual and inviting. Definitely recommend this place.
This is the pizza that dreams are made of. Took my parents here for their 36th anniversary lunch April 5, 2023. La Cumbre on tap, great wine selection, house made fresh mozzarella, very high quality ingredients, and expert pizzaiolas. We ordered the caprese appetizer, carni pizza, special chorizo pizza, and the pepe caldo pizza. Everything was amazing, pizzas were cooked perfectly and looked beautiful. The head chef was extremely nice and answered all my crazy pizza based questions. If you’re looking for pizza in Albuquerque, this is a must try.

Good pizza, but don't take my word for it. Run down to Farina's and let your taste buds enjoy happiness!
