My wife had the chicken cacciatore the chicken was 1/2 a chicken very hard to eat the flavor was very good but forget the ambiance cut the chicken up. I had the spaghetti and meatballs very good flavor but small portions how much does pasta cost. Again service was very good 👍 but for the amount of food it is pricey

49th Aniv..said it in OT rez...not acknowledged by restaurant--nice ambience..nice host. Wine--14 for a large pour--pricey Manhattan-$8 just ok... not perfect....watery...maybe sat on bar too long. Antipasto salad...$15 we split Not very good..Lacked good flavor from dressing...has huge amounts of pepperoni it it??? and cubes of turkey??? Didn't eat leftovers the next day. Bolognaise...$20..i would give it a 5...good portion but lacked real Italian tomato sauce flavor...would not order again. Penne ala Vodka..about the same...a 5...good portion but just an ordinary dish that lacked flavor. More like a jarred pasta sauce. Service good but payed more attention to tables with younger crowd. Break--ordinary...nothing to rave about even they say it is made in house $78 plus tip..not sure I will return.

Food was good. It was a little windy so sitting outside it was warm and the misters were rendered pretty much ineffective. Regardless, it was a positive experience and I would go back.

We are regulars at Enzo's La Quinta and have been since it opened. Their food is consistently excellent, the staff - from the busboy up - is the best (great attitude, friendly, efficient, accommodating, etc.), and the prices are more than fair. We always try to take out-of-town guests there - even if it can only be for happy hour. The bar atmosphere is very relaxed but not raucous and the bar menu is not the usual fare.

I love Enzo’s vibe. Lively and fun! My favorite is their handmade pasta. It is far better than from any box. I had the Veal on this occasion, it did not disappoint. Matter of fact I just had my leftovers for lunch. YUM! It was my birthday, they surprised me with a piece of tiramisu that was delicious. I highly recommend to anyone looking for an Italian meal that is super fresh, beautifully plated with amazing pasta.

Cannot cater to any food allergies/needs. Items ordered came with cheese on top and mixed in even though I specified, had the waitress confirm with the kitchen, etc. What we did taste was good, and many people seemed to enjoy the food and ambiance.

Be careful of this restaurant. They used my American Express card to charge two additional charges and I had to contact Amex to dispute the charges. I called the restaurant and left a voicemail, but received no response. Also, I booked outside patio seating and the manager said he had no staff to service the area and put me inside next to a noisy party and I could not hear my wife talking. Also, the waitress charged me full price for the bottle of wine even though it was half price night.

This was our third time dining at Enzo’s we really liked the other 2 times but this time was just ok . We ordered the oysters raw . They were not very good this time . Looks like they went up on the round hill wine but it was 1/2 off all wine bottles so ok . Our main was ok again. Some of the bread was a little dry and hard . We both ordered the linguine with clams .

Ordered linguini and clams…. Awful! Clams were mediocre. But the sauce wasn’t sauce at all, I think the cook used the pasta water and threw in some butter. It was more like soup, but no flavor…. No garlic, no herbs, or shallots. And pasta was so over cooked it was just mush. I have eaten at the Enzo’s in Palm desert and have not had a bad there. Not sure about how this one run?? Wouldn’t risk it.

We decided to eat inside for the first time. Nice ambience as we sat by the wine wall near the bar. I had a steak because I saw the meat being dry aged in a refrigerator. I am glad that I ordered the steak. Cooked exactly the way I wanted it. Service is was great. We enjoyed our cocktails.
