I have only been to Arthur Ave twice now but this place is amazinngggg. It was a sneakily large restaurant with wonderful bottles of wine on the wall and Italian cooking in the air. The service was exceptional and the food was top notch. I understand the hype of Arthur Ave. My family and I had some wine and rice balls to start. The wine was delicious and the rice balls were so delicate and crispy with amazing flavor. My wife had the chicken Francese which was sooo flavorful and lemony. I had the veal sarentino which was easily the best dish on the table. I could drink that sauce. We also shared so homemade cavatelli with vodka sauce which was of course, outstanding. My mom had the special which was pork rolled up with prosciutto, cheese, breadcrumbs, etc. and my dad had the veal parm. Everything was OUTSTANDING. 10/10 will be back read more

Food was very good. I would definitely go back. Very crowded and tough to get inside is my only complaint because it was snowing and raining. Great place to eat read more

Enzo's is right in the heart of Bronx Little Italy on Arthur Avenue with a large nice outdoor seating option. Using umbrellas if rain comes be ready to move or sit out a bit of rain.. as we did.. no biggie weather was warm. Service is good, food is good.. went with Linguine and Fresh Clams on white clam sauce.... Calamari was excellent.. Super light and fresh. Broccoli Raab and sausage was not bad. Good bread, olive oil. Really like Enzo's but not my go to stop.. Sort of a Wine Trap.... no carafes... spent $60 /$75 on a very basic Italian wine that was way too dry, and headache giving. Waiters were quick and energetic bringing all that was needed. read more

Enzo's - Enzos little Italy in the Bronx Arthur Avenue - Italian Near Me - Bronx, New York

Came back to Enzo's after a Bronx Zoo trip just about a month after my first visit, and again had a delicious, generously-portioned pasta meal. I ordered the gnocchi with pesto this time; both components were some of the best I've had. The gnocchi is pillowy soft without being gummy or soggy, and the pesto is amazingly creamy with the taste of pine nuts coming through. Great service again, with our server bringing us a second basket of bread unprompted probably knowing we'd want to scoop up every last bit of sauce. We came later than last time at around 6pm and did have a bit of a wait (only larger groups can make reservations), but it was easy to kill time perusing the street outside. Enzo's solidifies its place as my go-to pasta spot on Arthur Avenue, not that I've tried any other! read more

Fantastic meal! My wife had a personal pizza( which I had 1/4 of) and I had the chicken parmesan. Both were delicious. The homemade spaghetti with my meal was amazing, I could have eaten a huge bowl of that alone! We were seated right away, and service was great. There was always staff nearby if you needed anything. read more

I had an opportunity to visit Arthur Avenue in the Bronx for the first time. Had a business lunch at Enzo's. Started well with muni parking right next to restaurant. We were seated promptly and service was excellent. Bread and drinks appeared quickly as did the listing of numerous specials. For appetizers we had meatballs and calamari. Both OK but not special. No marinara sauce with the meat balls. Foe entrees my guests had veal special. They loved it. I tried a chicken panini. It was OK. The chicken cutlet was thin and overwhelmed by cheese and peppers. Bread so thick it was hard to eat. For desert we went across the street to a bakery.. overall Enzo's was OK. Not great but good. I will try it again. Ambiance was lively and noisey. read more

Calamari was amazing and the pasta bolognese was also great. I'll definitely try it again

Went back last Saturday and again tonight. Food is still outstanding. Tonight we ordered a few different dishes.., Polenta was excellent Calamari was good.. could be a tad bit crispier. Salad with pears and goat cheese was delicious. Dinners Veal chop parmigiana (pounded down) melt in your mouth tender. Stuffed chicken was very good. Gnocchi..., omg!! Little pillows of heaven. So light and delicious. And of course... my usual... veal parmigiana... phenomenal as alway!! Service was excellent also!! read more

I was there last Saturday w my family, we spent a fortune, the Bronzino was tilapia or some other bland white fish, but NOT BRONZINO that you over charge for. The artichokes were disgustingly with a bland gross breading, your service was terrible, we waited 1/2 hour just to get our check! Way over rated, way over priced, try the other restaurants on Auther Ave, I wish we had! Total rip off! read more

At first, we were very much looking forward to our 5pm dinner reservation. When we did get seated it took over 1 1/2 hours to simple receive our appetizers!!!! This is not because we delayed putting our orders in either. Upon receiving our meal, two hours in the making...it was simply average in terms of flavor and presentation. We had to ask numerous times to have our drinks delivered as well. EVERYTHING took FOREVER! When they finally apologized and said they would take care of us, they complimented our table of 8 with one measly glass of wine. Hospitality was not their strong suit and I hope that anyone else receives better. read more

Classic Italian. My wife and I had the price fixe which included the calamari arancini penne ala vodka and chicken parm. Everything was delicious. Exactly what you're looking for when you go to Arthur ave read more

The Arthur Avenue corridor of red sauce restaurants can overwhelm the non-Yelp-toting interloper. Fortunately, I was with a local who guided me to this reliable and unpretentious Italian American standard. Snagging a table outside early on on a nice Sunday afternoon was a cinch, but we got there just as they were opening. For starters I decided to share an Eggplan Rollatini (rolled with ricotta and Parmesan in a tomato sauce) and for my main I got one of their homemade pastas al forno (meatballs, sausage sopressata, ricotta, and mozzerella). Both dishes were sort of overwhelmed by the ricotta and in my "garbage pie" of pasta's case, carnivorous goodies. The pasta itself was chewy and good. The house wine does the job and the tartufo for dessert was excellent (recommend!). I haven't had a bad dining experience yet on Arthur Avenue, and I don't plan to. read more

Came here with my family for a impromptu early birthday dinner. Very cozy and intimate. I ordered a sprite for my son and it was super flat and sweet, I couldn't bare the taste. Otherwise all the other sodas we tried were ok. For appetizers we got the enzo pizza, calamari, and the baked clams. Enzo pizza was delicious and we all enjoyed it along with the baked clams, super good. I personally thought the calamari was a little too soft and lacked flavor. My sister and i ordered the carbonara pasta as entrees. I thought the pasta was a little soft and soggy. Each time I tried to grab some pasta it would just break apart. Not what I would've wanted in a pasta. My mom got the zuppa de pesce with linguini and she seemed to enjoy it, the pasta didnt look soggy there but too much work to take apart the shellfish, she was hoping the dish came deshelled. My dad got the oil and garlic pasta with grilled chicken and he ate it all and my husband ordered the rigatoni bolognese and he only left the sauce. Dinner was ok and inexpensive for 6 people, it was nice but I probably wouldnt come back. read more

Dining outside at Enzos of Arthur Avenue with my Veal Cutlet Parmigiana, if loving you is wrong then I don't wanna be right. The restaurants on Arthur Avenue have done a great job serving guests during the pandemic. I'm here at Enzos for lunch. Our waiter seated us quickly at a nice outdoor table. I've had a light breakfast because I am craving Italian comfort food, a huge veal cutlet parmigiana. This dish is something I used to eat as a kid, I can still see my grandfather pounding out the veal cutlets on Sunday morning. And Enzos make a KILLER veal parm! It comes with a side of spaghetti but the star of the lunch show is a pounded thin, veal cutlet. This thing is huge. YUGE! Fried to a golden perfection, topped with sauce and hot melted parmigiana cheese, this is why the Yankees keep winning. I haven't have a veal cutlet this good in years. If you're in The Bronx, I highly recommend dining at Enzos of Arthur Avenue where they are still making Italian specialty meals very well. read more

Enzo's - Veal parmigiana, perfecto - Italian Near Me - Bronx, New York

Old school Italian food with all pasta made in-house and delicious. We shared the Al Forno pasta baked with ricotta, mozzarella, little meatballs, sweet sopresata, and sausage in a tomato cream sauce. My wife had the sole Francese, and I had the veal alla Enzo with cippolinis, peas, and sausage in a brown wine sauce. The veal was tender, and my wife said the sole was very tasty. The portions are ample, and the quality was excellent. The waiter was pure old school and said we ordered enough, as I am so used to being upsold these days. All in all a terrific meal. read more

It was alright. I had heard a lot about this place and was dying to try, but prefer other Italian spots in comparison. It did not impress me and (I am not an Italian snob or anything)! The service, however, was very good. The salads are probably the best thing on the menu. read more

Only our favorite spot on Arthur Avenue for lunch. Anytime we are in the area it's always Enzo's. As you can imagine think old school Italian vibes. The food is always delicious (both pizza & pasta). Call ahead and you can reserve a table, on a busy day during peak times I highly recommend this. They have high chairs and seem to be kid friendly - a major plus. Can't say we have a favorite dish, it's all good. read more

This was my first time in Arthur Avenue and I went I try Enzo's because it's apparently one of the big staples of the area. Very cute (large) restaurant with attentive staff - we didn't have a reservation and the lunch rush was already getting pretty crowded (probably especially because people were coming in to escape the cold snap), but we were seated pretty quickly. We got the polenta cake appetizer, which was hearty and savory and perfect for the winter. My dining companion got the veal capricciosa from their lunch menu, which was a very generous portion and covered with a well tossed arugula. I got their pappardelle pasta with cheese and sausage in red sauce and unfortunately this was the one misfire of the day. The pappardelle was very overdone and some of the noodles had stuck to each other. The sauce helped hide the lack of noodle texture by just making it into what tasted like a lasagna deconstructed, but considering this place is known for its handmade pasta, I'm sorry I didn't get to taste it at its best. read more

For dessert I had the crème brûlée, espresso. We ended our meal w a strong espresso martini. The atmosphere was lively and fun. Loved the 50s & 60s music as well. Our waiter was sweet and attentive.

Service staff worked hard very busy restaurant. We were seated in the back garden room which we appreciated since it was less noisy then the other rooms. We arrived at 3.30 Pm. First my glass of white wine was not chilled. We were a party of 6 several of our meals were not hot, barely warm. We did not complain as we did not want to embarrass our friend who made the reservations. I had the shrimp scampi over risotto. It was barely warm. The 6 shrimp were cooked nicely but both the shrimp and the risotto were not well seasoned. Rather bland. I found no pieces of garlic as I expected and usually in a scampi sauce. I do not think I will be back. read more

Oh. My. Gosh. The food here is so good. Don't even bother with the other little Italy. The little Italy here in the Bronx is the real deal. The atmosphere is relaxed. The food here at Enzo's rivals any fine dining restaurant anywhere on the planet. Our server was Sebastian and he was Johnny on the spot and he and his associate who backled him up had great team work. If you want delicious food and drinks, combined with impeccable service, you need to come to Enzo's. read more

We had no reservations and they were quite full but the charming hostess quickly organized a table for 10 of us. Very nice. The bar made some really yummy cocktails. Extensive menu of authentic Italian dishes including salads, pastas and pizzas. Everything was delicious. The kids enjoyed their meals and desserts. The adults lingered over their wine and cocktails! We were served by Ardee and Violetta. Both were very friendly and attentive. It was a pleasure to watch them work as a team across the entire dining room. Highly recommended. read more

Enzo's has filled some Really big shoes. Who even knew the Bronx has a Little Italy bigger than the one in Manhattan? The Arthur Ave. Retail Market is the oldest enclosed market in the Bronx (it's worth a visit all its own), and Enzo's is in the back where Cafe Mercato used to be. Man do they serve a pizza. I was having a hard time making a decision because the display case was full of so many good-looking pies. At the chef's recommendation I got a slice with fresh mozzarella and sopressata. I tried to order pepperoni but he politely explained that pepperoni is a trashy imitation of sopressata. They say you should always follow chef's advice, so I did. And glad I did. 2 slices and I didn't have to eat again until the next morning. If I threw in a glass of red wine, it would have been first date worthy. Price, very fair. Chef has opened up high-end pizza restaurants all over the world. The counter guy was as friendly as could be. Attention Mr. Enzo: hang onto those guys, they're as good as your wonderful food. The Market and surrounding neighborhood is a great place to pick up your Italian deli things, fresh vegetables, and cigars hand-made on site -- fun to watch. You can get an authentic gelato and a serious espresso without taking too many steps from Enzo's -- make an afternoon of it, splurge a little, you'll not only have great pizza, you'll have an experience. Well done, Enzo's! read more

My son who goes to Fordham insisted that this restaurant is the best on Arthur Avenue. We had the truffle mushroom pizza and tricolor salad. For our meals, we got the chicken parmigiana, short rib pasta and pasta with white clam sauce. Everything was delicious!! The only reason I'm giving a four instead of a five is that we ate outside and every so often we could smell urine wafting over from the area next door. I'll definitely be coming back here, I'll just always eat inside from now on. ADVICE: EAT INSIDE. read more

Went on Saturday with my wife, 3 adult children, 1 daughter-in-law and 1 grandson. The nearby table of ten+ acted like they were the only people in the restaurant, hooting and hollering and generally yucking it up at a ridiculous volume. People at every table in the room looked their way in alarm more than once, and the waiters just rolled their eyes. I asked the manager to intervene. Reluctantly she said she would and we noticed she approached someone at the offending table. Nothing changed. If anything they got louder. On the way out, I told the manager that our outing had been ruined. Her reply: "Well, they come here all the time, so what can I do." When the host of the loud table kissed the manager on the way out, thanking her for such a good time, I knew that the fix was in from the beginning. read more
