This place is a gem. The service is first class, the food is unbelievable, and the ambiance is great. Trust me, it's the best in Ketchum. You're welcome! read more

Tonight I came to conclude that, in my humble opinion, one of the top two chefs in the State of Idaho is running the show at Enoteca! I ordered the olives, burrata, and the rack of lamb with some ice cold beer on tap to boot. Burrata is a dish I order often and the execution of this one immediately got my attention. This was all prepared exquisitely and the flavors played a symphony. The exact same description applies to the rack of lamb, served with some berry reduction, mint, local mushrooms, and an out of this world potatoes au gratin. Of note, the potatoes were a true homage to the state's most famous crop! And the lamb, sourced locally, of delightful quality. Please see my pics of the perfect pink lamb chops that I cut down from the rack. That ambiance is warmly lit, dim, and very cozy. I had a booth by the window decked out with multiple soft pillows. Not knowing any restaurant in Ketchum, the ambiance I saw in online pics was a big draw for me and it didn't disappoint. Service was on point; enough said: it's 5 stars! read more

This restaurant is run well, with excellent service and generally very good food. BUT... An heirloom Caprese salad is simple stuff, and for $17, making something this simple awesome should be easy. Not here! It is absolute sacrilege to serve heirloom tomatoes ICE COLD, along with mozzarella that isn't meant for a Caprese salad. If the heirloom tomatoes were good before they went into the refrigerator, we'll never know. Fresh mozzarella is readily available, with multiple brands to choose from, and it's inexpensive. The mozzarella served here is the harder kind that may go well on a pizza, but NOT on a Caprese salad. Then the whole thing is served on a bed of bagged mixed greens, with little thought or finesse. The chef should be embarrassed. Has he ever seen a Caprese served that way in a decent restaurant? The poor tomato was wasted! Take it off the menu or do it right. This restaurant is better than this...or is it? This is more than an oversight and needs correcting ASAP. read more

We split a lot of items but the star of the show was the Brussels and the pizza that had honey on it. Not sure what it was called. They do need to get a bar. A cocktail would have been nice but the peroni I had paired well with the pizza read more

This was my second time here and it's wonderful. The Ambiance is simple but classy, the service is top notch period! The food is as expected from one of Sun Valleys top restaurants. We started with a pizza that we shared and it was amazing. They get the ingredients from Italy and cook them in a wood fired pizza oven. I had the Asiago-Pesto Meatballs as my entree. It was in a light red sauce with Basil and just fantastic. The meatballs and I think there were Four were cooked perfectly and full of flavor and the noodles I heard are made in house! Make reservations as we were there on a Thursday night (pre season) and it was packed. read more

An absolute culinary Jewel in our town. Service, food and ambiance are quite perfect. We always enjoy our visits here, many daily specials are available in addition to great menu and wine list. Very enjoyable to dine and visit with friends here.... read more

David and Tiff made my fiance and I's experience so memorable!!! He and I talked about how we never leave reviews but have to because of how great they are. We will always come back when in town. Food was great too! read more

I called to place a takeout order, but the girl who answered said they weren't offering takeout. I asked if I could come in, order a pizza, and take it to go, but she said there were no available seats and the wait was over 30 minutes. Since I was already two minutes away, I decided to stop by anyway. When I walked in, I asked the male host if I could order takeout, and he said, "Of course." Then he asked if I wanted to sit, which confused me because I had just been told there was a long wait. He said there was plenty of seating. I placed my order, and then he mentioned that a mandatory gratuity was included--even for takeout, ridiculous. Was the pizza good? Yes. But the hassle wasn't worth it. There are better places to spend your money--ones that actually make it easy to do so. read more

Great food but taking off a point for ambiance and seating. First time I went I put a credit card down to make a reservation. We were given such a small table it was hard to relax. Second time, I put my name down for a bar seat. Waited around 2 hours, as people were just sitting there forever, long after they were done. Bar seats were also closely packed together. Loved the food including the trout and the pizza. Panna Cotta dessert was amazing. Would recommend but not for big groups (more than 2 people) read more

Worth the wait! We enjoyed their menu, ambiance, and waitstaff. Great teamwork of staff and food was spot-on! Delightful evening

Great service while sitting at the bar during our visit earlier this year to Ketchum. We had a pizza and cocktails and everything was great! We would return if in the area again. read more

This was our best meal during our stay in Ketchum. There were 6 of us and we sampled a variety of appetizers and entrees and they were all amazing. I had the duck confit and it was amazing. Overall this was a nice cozy restaurant with attentive service. We were very happy with our experience here! read more

Cozy wine bar with wood fired pizzas and more upscale entree options as well. Service was excellent and the food was delicious. For a starter, we tried their winter salad which was also amazing - topped with squash, beets, pecans, Gorgonzola and likely one of the best salads I've ever had. We tried the special pizza which had chicken, shrimp, bacon, banana peppers, and a pesto drizzle. It was perfectly crispy on the outside and gooey on the inside. Tip: definitely make a reservation. This place is very popular among both the locals and tourists! read more

We had a terrific dinner here last night. The bar seating is tight, but the service was outstanding and the pizza and salad were excellent. Great selection of wines and N/A options, so something for everyone. If you can't get a reservation, they have a terrific texting system for letting you know when bar seating is available. The restaurant is very popular, so don't dally at the bar...people will be waiting! read more

Had dinner there last night. We used to love having dinner there but the service was terrible. I did not touch much of my meal and the waitress was too busy to ask if something was wrong etc. Food quality not great and the service was worse! read more

Enoteca is an adult-oriented experience for sure. If you're coming to drink wine, I'm sure it's a five-star experience. I came with my family of six, ranging from 12-47 years old, and none of us were super pleased with the food. First, there is nothing to drink but water, San Pellegrino, and homemade root beer and ginger ale. I loved the san pellegrino, personally, but the 12 and 15 year old wanted a Dr. Pepper. Haha. It was then that I scolded my mother for not looking at the menu more closely before making a reservation. I definitely wouldn't come to this restaurant if you have kids. I had the Wine Auction pizza, and it was decent, but not great. Way too peppery, but I loved the grapes. I've had better pizzas at other restaurants. My boyfriend had a side of their mac n' cheese, and he didn't like it much. I tried it and agreed with him. Very bland and didn't even taste that cheesy. My mother, her sister, and I, all had the brussels sprouts as a side, and all three of us didn't like it at all. I was really sad about that too, because I love brussels sprouts. My mom and her sister had the Margarita pizza, and they enjoyed it. My 12 year old cousin had the spaghetti and meatballs, and he thought it was decent, but not great. Overall, we wouldn't go back here. If I wanted to sit down at the bar and drink wine, I'd definitely come back. The ambiance was beautiful and low-lit, but the tables (and the restaurant) were pretty cramped. The bar area was beautiful, though. The service was good, though. I know this restaurant has great reviews, so maybe we just ordered the wrong things, or maybe we just have bad taste! The price is way too high for the experience we had. Needless to say, we probably won't be back. read more

Absolutely delicious, one of the best spots in town! First of all, make a reservation! A week in advance is good. However, they were kind about trying to fit in newcomers. Bacon-wrapped dates were phenomenal! Salmon special was perfectly cooked. read more

Sometimes it pays to be a solo diner. I am in Sun Valley for the Writers' Conference and it had been a long hot, intellectually stimulating, but very busy Sunday, for the record i looked like a rag-a-muffin. A local friend recommended this wine bar and I remember coming in with my dad in 2017 and getting the most awesome pizza and wine. This place was clearly booked solid and groups without reservations were getting turned away in droves. I decided to be bold and inquire about a spot for one at the bar anyway, prepared to be turned away. The lovely hostess frowned at her reservation book... "I will eat fast. " I prodded and i think i committed to being in and out in 25 minutes. She smiled and said she would see what she could do. A guy, who I think was the manager came to tell her that chef was slammed and laughed when she told him I would be gone in 25 minutes... " Are you eating , or just here for a drink?" I confirmed the former and things were not looking good for me. Then he looked up and took pity on me. The hostess led me to a bar stool and I contemplated the menu wedged between two couples. I was so happy to be there and the bar staff was phenomenal. I ordered one of the Specials- Northwest Petrale Sole with Basmati rice and a watermelon/ jicama salsa. My iced tea glass was refilled constantly and I just kept gulping it down. My meal was the best one I have eaten this summer. I have always been impressed with the restaurants in the Ketchum/Sun Valley area and particularly innovative pairings of local fish and game and produce. My plate was gorgeous and the fish was perfectly grilled crisp, but flaky/ delicate, just as sole should be. The piece was small but quite thick. The added crunchiness from the cool watermelon and mild nuttiness of the jicama played well with the delicate fluffy rice. Watermelon alone would have been overly sweet and adding light starchy jicama and slightly bitter wilted spinach was a revelation. Tiny pecan pieces sprinkled on the edge of the plate brought more crunch and especially complimented the fluffy scattered rice. Being a Bsy Area girl, I am often underwhelmed by meals when I travel. My plan had been to hit a grocery store and put together a quick charcuterie paper plate to eat in my room. I am so glad that I didn't shrink away from having a great experience, just because I was traveling alone. If I had come in with a date, or friend, I never would have gotten to try Enoteca again! Thank you so much to the awesome staff. This place seemed to be a good mix of tourists and locals. I feel super lucky to have had the chance to have a seat at the table... er sorry at the bar. read more

Food was amazing - ordered one of their specialty pizzas and it did not disappoint. Over I'd rate it a 4.5/5 . Service wasn't bad but was a little chaotic and unorganized. (I think a server was unexpectedly covering the host stand too). Overall it was a good experience and I will be back. read more

Enoteca was our favorite restaurant in Ketchum. The atmosphere and service are awesome. I had the lamb chops, they were some of the best I've ever had. My friends had the duck confit, they licked their plates, also the chicken dish was a hit. Our salads were excellent as well. The wine list had some good Italian wines, we had two bottles. Our server was so good, she knew her wines. I wish this restaurant was in SF, I can't wait to come back on my next visit. Although we didn't have the pizzas I will order next time. Do make reservations ahead, was hard to get in. We ended the meal with a nice glass of port. read more

Hands down the best restaurant we ate at in Ketchum. Service was excellent, food was great, atmosphere was fantastic. We had a group of 5 (plus 1 vegan), and the 5 decided to order family style so we could try a little of everything. There wasn't a single dish that disappointed! I can't recall everything that was ordered, but highlights include the pizza of the day, bison ribeye, lamb chops, bacon wrapped dates, and most importantly a side order of potato a gratin. It came out in the shape of a slice of pie, and was so delicious! read more

Delicious food with attentive servers! We were well taken care of in a busy restaurant with good atmosphere. Seats were a bit close to neighboring patrons, but we will be returning for another visit! Wine prices seemed a little disproportionately pricey compared to entree and pizza prices. read more

Had a 7:45 reservation, and we were tired and hungry from a long day of traveling, so we showed up early.... At 7:20. They sat us, without problem. Hostess was friendly and our server was an unexpected treat. Great wine list, and they will give you a taste of something if you aren't sure what you want. I had a great glass of Prosecco. My husband had the pork scallopini with polenta and it was the best scallopini dish we have ever tasted! I had the pizza special- steak, red peppers, wild mushrooms and bechamel sauce, it was very good. Plus my side of brussel sprouts! I thought about making a reservation for another night as well!! Insider tip- make a reservation in advance on Resy! read more

The service was very good. They kept the table cleared in between courses. The restaurant small but the big mirrors helped to create a bigger feel. It started off with bacon wrapped dates and prosciutto melon. We highly recommend!! We had the pork chop and the Idaho trout. It was very delicious. A nice finish was the gelato!!! read more

In town to snowboard for the weekend, Read some good reviews of this place so we decided to try it. We had a reservation for an earlier time but due to flight delays we could not come till an hour later and they were very accommodating. I had the duck confit with risotto and side of brussel sprouts. The skin on the duck was crispy and seasoned well. My friend had the kale salad and Idaho trout. Everything was delicious, cooked to perfection and we all enjoyed our food. We would definitely return. Update, came here during the summer. Had the lamb chops which were pretty small compared to other places I've had lamb chops and got the brussel sprouts again. The food was cooked well and our party enjoyed our meal. All the staff wore masks and they properly socially distanced is in the restaurant from the other diners read more

Great wine bar with food to match. We went as a large group. The wild boar ragu was delicious, everyone wanted a bite. The lamb was good, typical small chops. The duck confit was also good, rissotto a touch bland.The pizza is excellent- crust could be a bit darker, but overall great flavor. Wine list is long. The server was lovely, she didn't know much about wine which was her only downfall. Understandable in a ski town. read more

Food is amazing! Employees vey nice. Very well done food. I think the food is a very good choice for date night and family time

This place was great! I'll admit, we were underdressed and a little rushed as we were trying to make a movie. The food was great, service and staff were fabulous. I'd plan to come and really enjoy yourself here. A great sit down option here in Sun Valley! read more

I ordered a Strega pizza for pickup. Just a few words of warning...(1) have plenty to drink on hand; 2) expect a salty piece of cardboard; and (3) expect a 15% gratuity charge...in addition...staff expects an additional tip for pickup!!! I have been alive for 62 years and eat pizza on a regular basis all over the U.S. This ranks in the top 1% of worst "pizzas" EVER tasted. Do yourself a favor if U plan to visit this establishment...drink heavily before ordering their dehydrated flatbread called pizza You'll thank me later... read more

This is probably the best place in Ketchum. I ate here twice on my most recent trip. Combined, I've probably been here 15-20 times over the past few years. The duck is excellent, the salmon is some of the best I've had anywhere, the trout and braised short ribs are great as well. Never skip the carrot cake. Didn't have any issues on this last trip with getting a table 20 minutes before the kitchen closed (both nights.... Sorry). I typically eat at the bar but didn't feel rushed out of there as the restaurant neared closing time. read more

The food was great, though the entrée selection was a bit limited. The atmosphere was awesome and the restaurant was full within 10 minutes of opening at 5 o'clock. But beware of the high wine prices. Most wines by the glass were $20 or more. And the only cab on the menu was $50 a glass! read more

So glad we were able to snag a reservation here during our trip. The pizza was great, but it was actually the cheese and prosciutto plate and buratta that were our favorites. Also highly recommend the trout. Will definitely eat here again the next time we are in Ketchum. read more

Enoteca served us wonderful food with great service, even on such a busy night as New Year's Eve. The clams and the burrata appetizers were great starters. We all enjoyed our dinners. The scallops were perfectly browned and deliciously sauced, the meatballs were so tender and perfectly seasoned over spaghetti. Lovely entree, but we miss having them as an appetizer choice. We also enjoyed the Mercantile pizza made with spicy lamb sausage. We accompanied it all with a beautiful red wine blend. And who could resist the chocolate cake to go? It was a full house, but the perfect place for dinner. read more

Enoteca is our go to restaurant in Ketchum and we eat here at least once a week when we're in town. Can't believe I've never left a review! The food is always delicious and the service outstanding. Bar seating is always fun. Between the servers and others seated at the bar, we've had some great conversations. Favorite starters include bacon wrapped dates, Brussel sprouts and rosemary flatbread. Love their pizza (especially the Pizza Diavolo) and their specialty pizza of the day is always interesting and delicious. Whenever Boar Ragu is on the menu I always order it and eat every bite. My other favorite is the Duck Confit with risotto. Husband also loves the oysters which come from various locations throughout the country. Chocolate Budino or Panna Cotta for dessert. Yum. Extensive wine list. We've found plenty of favorites based on staff recommendations. Reservations made well in advance is a good idea. read more
