    My husband and I celebrated our wedding anniversary at Enzo and we enjoyed every bit of our experience! Our server, Tony, was so attentive, personable, and helpful with any questions about the menu! We ordered a few different items off the menu, and everything was incredible. The staff wished us a happy anniversary and served us a complimentary dessert. We are so happy we chose Enzo to celebrate our special day and we look forward to coming back!
