He best restaurant in Rio Rancho! I know anyone familiar with
the area is thinking "that's not saying much!" Hold
on though,
it's the best restaurant in Rio Rancho, and even more, it's
the
best Italian food in the state! The food is spectacular, the service
is ALWAYS outstanding, and the atmosphere is worth going out
of your way. Personally, just as a suggestion when there, start
with a bottle of the Luna di Luna Merlot/Cabernet (60-40), I understand
it is exclusive to Pasta Cafe, & the Fried Ravioli appetizer,
it's served covered in a magnificent, Marsala cream sauce, created
by one of the immpeccable chefs. Salads? Tough decision, there
dressings are all home-made and wonderful, just make sure you
leave plenty of room for dessert! As far as the meals go... You
can't go wrong with anything available from their extensive
menu. (if on the off chance nothing quite catches your eye, ask
your server for a suggestion, or Owner Joe, who's frequently
there, they are always more than happy to find something not on
the menu, or more in line with your tastes.) I will however say,
i've loved everything i've ever tried there, but my favorite
has got to be the Shrimp Francese, THE BEST! Now the sinful part,
Real, fresh made, (usually by the owner's father) honest-to-god,
Cannoli. It's very rich, and i'm sure has 9 gazilion calories,
but who cares!?! One Cannoli, Would be worth a month on the treadmill!
By now you'll be stuffed full of the best meal you've had in
a LONG
time, and with the deserving tip, can leave for probably, $70-$80.
(2 people with wine, appetizer, and dessert.) which is well worth
it, the only trouble will be leaving itself, trust me you wont
want to, & the staff would never let you know if you were keeping
them. It is sincerely the best dining in New Mexico, you just might
not find better this side of Italy!
