Came across this place while trying to grab a bite to eat. This wine bar is so adorable! We arrived pretty late on a Friday night and there were only two tables full in the restaurant. The waitress explained that everything was made in house from the noodles to the bread to the sauce. I was pretty excited because I miss real Italian cooking! (On my honeymoon all I ate was pasta lol). The bread that came out was good but not warm which is fine. I ordered linguine del mare which is a seafood based pasta with calamari, clams and shrimp. The pasta was softer then I would like but had a good texture. It came with a bunch of seafood which tasted great! And the spicy tomato sauce over the noodles really complimented the whole dish. Delicious meal. I gobbled up every bite! Glad we found this place  !

What a bummer.  If you read my previous reviews, I have been a big fan of Enzo and his restaurant.  The only reason I haven't visited more often is that I've moved out of state.  For Valentine's Day this year, I had the chance to return, and sweetie and I were so excited.  Spoiler:  It didn't go well.  First, I tried to make an electronic reservation.  Enzo's apparently uses Google.  Google sent me a message saying they'd reach out to Enzo's to confirm.  A few hours later, I got a message saying Enzo's hadn't replied, and they couldn't confirm my request. I figured no big deal--I'll just call.  So I did.  I reached a person, who gladly took my reservation for prime hours on Valentine's Day.  I felt a bit sad--thinking maybe Enzo's wasn't doing so well, if it was so easy to get a spot 2 days in advance. Valentine's Day arrives, and we are prompt and ready for our feast.  And pleasantly surprised to see the place is packed--with more tables than we remember.  A hostess greets us and says "Ten minutes, please".  No problem!  It's Valentine's Day.  She doesn't ask our name, and doesn't have any list to check off our reservation.  Oh, well.  However, we note that no one one seems to be wrapping up, and we wonder how this timing is going to work.  Sure enough, 10 minutes pass, then 15.  At 20 (and no movement, and others are also arriving--but not greeted) we wonder how long we will wait.  Meanwhile, things don't seem to be going very well.  We note someone asking for a check, and waiting and waiting to receive it.  Someone else does get their check, and there's apparently an error.  Another table waits this whole time with no water, bread, or menus. Yet another is picking at their food.  There's one waiter and one bus person. Worse, there's no Enzo in the kitchen.  One chef.  Clearly, no one can cope. No one looks like they're enjoying an evening of excellent italian dining.  Finally, at 32 minutes after the hour, we are seated, along with perhaps three other tables all at once. Not greeted.  No water.  No wine.  No menus.  But a table.  We wait another 15 minutes.  We watch one of the newly seated tables get said water, bread and menus.  And then their order is taken.   That was the last straw and we walked out.  We ate burgers down the street.  Big bummer.
