Ristorante da Enzo

An unassuming place right off the square, but make no mistake, the food is amazing. Those little fluffy bread thingys were incredible. The best 5 euro i've spent this entire trip. The minced pork was also top notch.

Very traditional cuisine and atmosphere, bringing back to the Italian traditional restaurants on the ‘70s. No frills, just good old home made pasta, great buffet o of antipasti with good selection of vegetables. Cold cuts were “ok” but could be improved in terms of quality, given the goodies in the region. Service was very friendly and professional!

Ok, it's hard to find a restaurant that doesn't taste good in a city like Modena where, pretty much very place, offers incredible food, but Enzo is really a gem in the city center. The restaurant was founded in the 1950's and kept the original vibe! At the entrance you'll see a old lady (probably a relative of the original owner) rolling pasta. Pretty much everything is hand made in this restaurant and tastes incredibly good. Maybe the only downside is that if you're looking for vegetarian options they might be really few. Emilia has quite a strong meat base in every dish. If you don't have any of these problems than do yourselves a favor and stop here!

Friendly service and fantastic traditional food. This place is a little gem in the Modena town center. You will see the ladies to make fresh tortellini and preparing the gnocco fritto. Highly recommended!

Very nice and cozy restaurant with good quality home made food. Service needs to improve as they have 2 waiters for around 60 people. Try the tortellini in crema di parmigiano as it’s a Modena’s classic

The description of the restaurant said „homemade pastas“ so, my expectations were high - especially since this is Italy we are speaking of. I ordered the Bolognese Tagliatelli Pasta and Tiramisu. The „layout“ or presentation of the dish was very poor. The plates were partly dirty on the sides of dish and it looked overall quite bleak and bland - and the taste wasnt really any better… Overall it looked like it was thrown together quite hastily and was quite small…. It lacked really any flavour or spices and I have eaten bread with more flavour and taste in it than that pasta… At least the price was quite cheap - 10-14€ for each pasta dish - but I would have very preferably payed more for a proper dinner and even for this price it was barely ok. The tiramisu tasted like it was warmed from a frozen one.

I ate here years ago. Not much has changed. Good food. Friendly service. Easy access. Family feel.

A fantastic restaurant - excellent service (they were particularly tolerant of us as English speakers, with our best attempts at Italian). Very reasonable prices - we had two dishes, a side dish, half litre of wine for 36 euro! The food was fantastic too. Definitely worth a visit.
