Enzo's Of Williamsbridge

It was my second time at Enzo’s and once again it was a great experience. Our waiter was excellent. The food was delicious and the prices are reasonable. I highly recommend you go eat at Enzo’s you will not be disappointed.

Exceptional food, amazing customer service and a beautifully clean atmosphere.

As I entered Enzo's, I was welcomed by a family atmosphere: wooden window frames, wine bottles on the back wall, and family tables set up. It was early dinner time - I arrived at 5:40; I observed families and some couples already sitting and enjoying. After a vaccination check, I made it into one of the indoor tables. Immediately, a basket of fresh bread, butter, salt, pepper and olive oil was setup, and water served.  I went for the Baked Polenta for appetizer, their Classic Gin Negroni for a drink, and their Chicken Sorrentino for the main dish. I confirmed I am definitely not a fan of gin - I did not like the cocktail, although I did appreciate the mix of flavors despite my distaste. The Baked Polenta was definitely the star of dinner overall: soft, creamy and delicious - the contrast of the Polenta and bean textures plus the cheese and tomato on the sauce were a tasty combination. The Chicken Sorrentino was delicious - the sauce was definitely what stood out in this dish; the chicken itself was not juicy, but the sauce makes up for it very well. As I finished the Sorrentino, I was unable to reject the waiter's American hospitality with an Italian twist: "I'm sure you have space for dessert!" I replied: "Well, I will have to see the dessert menu." A minute later, he brought a big tray filled with dessert samples - no paper menu, just choose from the samples, and they will give you a fresh dessert. I went for the Torta Della Nonna, which is similar to a lemon pie; I added a coffee to wash it all off.  Admittedly, I'm not a fan of desserts, especially in US because of the big portions - despite that, the Torta wasn't bad: the lemon filling was a bit light, while the sweetness stood out on the crust.  The coffee was just perfect, and a great way to finish this visit to Enzo's. As I left the restaurant, more tables were setup with many groups, mostly adult families - something nice to see, considering we are slowly leaving the pandemic crisis in NYC.

Overall, great experience here: warm atmosphere, good portions, delicious Italian dishes, friendly hospitality. I would recommend Enzo's if you crave Italian and are particularly hungry, if you need a place for date night or a small family gathering.
