Il Vicino Wood Oven Pizza

Wood-fired pizza is the main offering at this contemporary Italian pizzeria. Pizzas range from Margherita to varieties topped with ingredients such as goat cheese, shrimp, or roasted chicken. The menu also includes calzones, baked lasagna and pastas, panini, piadine flatbread sandwiches, and signature salads. Drinks include premium wines, microbrewed beers, and homemade root beer, with desserts also available. The first location opened in Albuquerque's Nob Hill in 1992, and the restaurant has expanded to locations in New Mexico, Colorado, and Kansas. Its menu draws on traditional Italian fare and wood-firing methods. Albuquerque is among the cities served.
