My sister CJ treated me to a birthday lunch on Tues, Aug 20,2924. The owner graciously greeted us & prepared a delicious lunch which incl. fried calamari appetizer- light and delicate flavor. Veal Enza and my dish, a layered veal, prosciutto, thinly sliced eggplant and fresh mozzarella in a light sherry sauce. Portions were generous allowing us to bring home a treat for later in the day. The restaurant is comfortably cozy in size - about 12 tables, spotlessly clean and a super clean bathroom and kitchen. I know that might sound funny but as someone once in the culinary field I consider it a reflection of your work . Santo’s kitchen is fresh smelling, no odor of left over grease- his counters were shiny and floors clear. Since it was not yet dinner time I told him my background & asked to see his kitchen. It amazed me! If you dine at Enza’s you know your food is fresh, owner keeps it clean and his prices are reasonable. Great spot!Thank you for an enjoyable meal Santo!
Good food at very reasonable prices.
Amazing food ,, real family environment , my niece from DC came and raving about their sauce ,, she even bought a bottle of sauce to go. Eggplant was cooked to perfection ,, we will go here quite often from now on
My family picks this restaurant for every occasion! It feels like walking into a second home. The food is delicious and we enjoy the intimate service.
We went on a rainy Saturday. Santo, the chef, was there alone. He served 3 of us by himself and was wonderfully pleasant and engaging. The food was excellent. It's now on our list of local go-to places.
Our absolute favorite restaurant, we have bern coming for 35 years and it's the absolute same! The family is so nice with the best service! Thank you Enza’s for always being GREAT!
First time ordering here. Picked up Valentines Day dinner - chicken parm, shrimp parm, tortellini special and 2 hot antipastos - generous portions and the food was excellent- would definitely recommend and we’ll definitely order again
