Reservation was recognized and effort made to honor our request for a quiet(er) table. Nice touch: waitress brought a coat tree for our winter coats.' Took a little longer than one would expect to get the bottle of wine we ordered but worth the wait as a very nice Montepulciano at a reasonable price. We shared the whipped ricotta with honey on grilled sourdough starter. She had the cacio e pepe with chicken and I had it with Italian sausage. Both were enjoyed. This is a neighborhood favorite and walkable from our home, but while we enjoy it more at lunch and on slow weeknights, it's great to see a chef-driven, family operated restaurant succeeding.

The food is excellently prepared and plated. I had the grilled octopus entre and it was perfectly cooked / moist and juicy. My friend had one of the most beautiful presentations of beef short ribs I have ever seen. Huge bone in. And the veal meat balls appetizer was also great 👍

Only complaint was being seated close to the door, it felt like we weren’t in the actual restaurant. Everything else 10/10!!!!

The wine bottles are priced at a great value as well. While most restaurants charge 3-4x retail, the wine prices here are a breath of fresh air. Highly recommend Enoteca!
