Meet Our Partners
Jeff Spiegel & Katie Gardner
Owners / Founders
In 2013, Jeff and Katie decided to open another restaurant--this time in Albuquerque. This was a dramatic decision, having left behind the restaurant business in 2006 after 23 years and 11 restaurants in NYC. Now, fully committed to building their business in NM, the two, together with partner John Haas, opened M’tucci’s Italian, M’tucci’s Moderno in Rio Rancho, and M’tucci’s Twenty-Five at I-25 & Jefferson.
“We are building a retail food business that we are defining by our commitment to perfection!” - Jeff
John Haas
Founding Partner / President
John is a Founder & Partner at M’tucci’s and the company’s President. John has a passion for food, having served as the company’s Executive Chef since M’tucci’s inception. One of the greatest driving factors for him is seeing the success of others around him. John is most proud of the amazing talent that M’tucci’s is able to call its work family. His focus with food is bringing overall approachability and familiarity built around clean vibrant seasonal flavors. Many of the dishes are inspired by his time with Italian born chefs in the Midwest and Italy.
Before joining the M'tucci’s family in 2013, John spent time as an Executive Chef and General Manager for much of his career in Des Moines, IA. He relocated to Albuquerque with Bravo Cucina prior to the start of M’tucci’s. He has more than 25 years of restaurant experience. We are proud of John’s natural inclination to produce food that Italians and New Mexicans recognize and love while continually bringing exciting new tastes to our plates and our palates.
