"At Enzo’s, nobody will give you a dirty look if you drunk-laugh too loudly. This old school Italian restaurant on Arthur Avenue is for big groups who want to consume a boatload of wine and argue over which pasta shapes to order. (The answer is bucatini alla carbonara and cavatelli with broccoli rabe.) With four big dining rooms, the place always feels packed but always has room, and you can still hear uptempo Sinatra numbers over the noise. Go ahead, get another bottle. These servers have seen everything." - willa moore, sonal shah, bryan kim, will hartman

"There’s a lot going on at Enzo’s. You’ll hear conversations in both Italian and big Bronx accents, a playlist pulled from the Rat Pack’s Spotify, and someone scolding someone else for watching the game during dinner. All of that can be fun if you come for the right occasion. This restaurant is best for big groups who want to drink a boatload of wine and argue over which of the 12 pasta shapes to pair with which sauce. (The answer is bucatini alla carbonara and cavatelli with broccoli rabe.)" - neha talreja, molly fitzpatrick
"Someone once told us that fried calamari is an appetizer for children. They’re wrong, but we also have a very adult version to introduce them to. At Enzo’s, on Arthur Avenue in the Bronx, you have the option to order your calamari “Alla Enzo,” tossed in white wine, hot cherry peppers, arugula, mushrooms, and honey. It’s salty, sweet, and spicy all at once—order it so you can teach your kids what “umami” means." - bryan kim, neha talreja, molly fitzpatrick, will hartman, willa moore, sonal shah, molly fitzpatrick, will hartman, willa moore, will hartman, will hartman, will hartman, bryan kim, willa moore, neha talreja, sonal shah, neha talreja, bryan kim, neha talreja, bryan kim, molly fitzpatrick, neha talreja, bryan kim
