    The new owner has really improved something that was already great. The remodel is spectacular and the ambiance is fresh and inviting. The food is excellent from the pizzas to the pastas and salads its all great. The staff is friendly and attentive. I'm glad to see this place is surviving the pandemic and I hope it continues to do so.

    First off the food was great, the drinks were good but the service to a second drink was a bit slow. Nothing to worry about. The atmosphere was good not to bark home about but definitely on the nicer end. I would definitely visit again.

    It was soo good. Had a side ceasar salad too but ate it before I could take a pic. Delicious dressing on that. Service was great too. Nice vibe. Definitely will return for more pizza.

    Great food , nice staff. We did take out and this place was really good. Had two meals both were hot when received. We will go back when in town again. A little pricey but worth it.

    Busy on a Friday night, but the pizza came out fast. Decent selection of beers, wines, and cocktails. Pizza was great; thin crust, the green chili was very mild though.

    Wanted to try something local and came across this dainty resteraunt. Great customer service and reasonable prices. Recommend if you're looking for a local Italian restaurant.

    The food is good, but it's like they don't want to serve you here. You can't order a pizza to pick up without giving them a card number first. They don't want you to pay cash for it. Also, two of us walked in for dinner the other night but couldn't be seated at one of the five empty tables I could see because they already had one table of 10 people. Evidently, they can't handle more than one table at a time. Weird. Off-putting. I'm not waiting an hour to be I seated while the one big table in the midst of a bunch of empty tables finishes supper. Like I said, the food is good, but management and the kitchen need to get their act together. We won't be going back any time soon.

    So I just tried to call in an order and was told they were accepting any take out orders but when I asked if I could go in and order to go (which is take out) the girl who answered told me yes. So I asked her then why can’t I order over the phone. She simply answered I don’t know. I won’t be going in for this reason. This place was much better when it was located on university. I rated the food a 4 star because it is good. I rated the service a 1 star because of this comment and the atmosphere a 2 star because this new location is small and congested. Was really looking forward to some good pizza but not worth the wait if I can’t order ahead.

    Got a half serving of spaghetti and meatballs. They are the frozen meatballs from Walmart.. not fresh. The girl that took the order was rude and hung up on my wife so we called again and she rudely answered. The actual server for dine in at great but over all this experience was quite disappointing.

    We got the margherita pizza for two. asked for extra fresh mozzarella but it didn't really have the extra mozzarella. It's a good pizza! a bit pricey. paid 20 bucks for pickup. for one medium pizza.

    Might be the best culinary experience in Las Cruces, the food was amazing, unfortunately the food looked too good to even wait to take a picture, you dig right into your meal. Ask for Jared, he was awesome, very professional server. Everyone had smiles when you walk in, highly recommended. The picture should speak for itself. Delicious.

  • 5/5 Rebecca W. 5 months ago on Google
    This is the best pizza in Las Cruces. Wood fired. Delicious crust. Unique and flavorful topping. The Pesto is divine. The Blanco is the best I have had in years. Even the cheese was top shelf good. Full bar and tasty libations add to the joy of this experience. Oh, and the SERVICE!! Exceptional, attentive, efficient and effective! These folks train a great staff. Just come eat, enjoy, and relax!

    Cool place to drink tea, and have a 🍺 and grab a meal. Prices are competitive with the other restaurants, if not lower, and lots of comebacks, I mean the place is happening for sure.

  • 2/5 Kent E. 1 year ago on Google
    Service was slow. Pizza was OK but the calzone was very small and the "extra extra" pepperoni was laughable. Value was low for the quality/quantity of food. They also added extra charges for paying by card. No reason to go back.

  • 5/5 Danika H. 1 year ago on Google
    Had the butter board, nosh board, the Lemon Asparagus pizza, and ended with tiramisu. (Didn't get pics of anything except the dessert.) Everything was delicious! Service was fantastic (props to Thomas)! Atmosphere is relaxed and comfortable. Highly recommend going here!!!

  • 5/5 Nicole D. 1 year ago on Google
    The service was great, in the future we will definitely be making a reservation because the wait got pretty long. The food was so good and so well prepared and the drinks were spectacular! It is on the more expensive side but well worth it!

    Can we give 6 stars? I hadn't been to Zeffiros in years and had forgotten how good the pizza is. The chew in the crust, the slight char from the brick oven fire, the fresh cheese which leads to that glorious cheese pull lol. Great staff, our waiter was very attentive and friendly. This place serves one of the best brick oven pizzas in LC.

    I've been coming to Las Cruces for several years and have never had such amazing customer service. The food was even better! Our waiter, Thomas, was very attentive and never let any of our drinks go empty. We ordered some items that were new to the menu and it was delicious! We got a spicy honey butter board along with a meat board. Words cannot describe how good the food was! Thank you for such a pleasant experience.

    I was in town visiting. I followed reviews And they were Not wrong. The food was DELICIOUS. I arrived late, close to closing time, but they still got my order to go. The girl took my order fast. Staff was friendly and even helped me out to my car with my order. I will definitely will visit again when in New Mexico. <3

    So fire! They have a ton of vegan toppings and they are incredible! Vegan cheese, pepperoni, and sausage!!! The crust is super on point. Absolutely the best vegan pizza I’ve ever had. Awesome find for any vegans in the area. Server was a homie too.

  • 3/5 Naomi L. 1 year ago on Google
    Thursday night dinner. Pizza was good. Pasta was so-so. Pasta drenched in lemon oil that was greasy without good flavor. Veggies on top were good. Server was friendly but didn't refill drinks (ice tea) or pay much attention. Not hard to get his eye but... Crowd was an interesting mix. One table of 3 older couples but most people were younger. Didn't see any children.

    Came to eat dinner on Wednesday night. Got a seat super quick. Server was very attentive. I ordered the 10" Pesto Pesto pizza with Chicken. Was DELICIOUS! Also ordered at our table was the Pistol Pete with Green Chile. That one was good as well! will definitely be back!
