    Dining room.

    I had driven past their street sign advertising a Gyro and Fries for $9.99 for over a month and teen and I happened to be out in this are and we decided to give it a shot. I love a good gyro. It's a order at the counter type of spot. Even though a bell rings when you walk in it took several minutes before we saw anyone come to the counter. Their menu has a large variety of items from pizza, gyros, seafood, cheesesteaks and more. I must say the photos on the menu wall do not look the most appetizing, mostly because they're all faded and discolored. We both ordered the gyro special. It took a bit to get our order but it came out piping hot and that's how it should be. Fries were typical fries. Gyro was good. Not the best I've had but it had good flavor. I think it needed a little more spice to the meat and it would have helped. My biggest complaint is the meat was very greasy. I took a few napkins and blotted as much as I could off of it prior to eating. It helped a bit. I wasn't that pleased with the Tzazki sauce. I found it very bland and not tangy at all which I've come to expect. I don't think it added anything to the gyro. We saw several people come in to pick up to go orders. It looks like they do a lot of take out. Mostly appeared to be pizza so maybe we'll try that at another time.

    Was not impressed. Had Gyro lunch special. $11.00 for a Gyro fries and a drink. Now the Gyro was good lots of meat. But drink choices were ice tea(sweet only) lemonade.or a can of soda. They don't have soda machine so only refills were on lemonade and ice tea. Place was clean. They have counter service. Won't go back because of price vs value just did not match up. I have had much better lunches for $11.99

    Chicken Alfredo and garlic bread

    We found this gem on DoorDash a few months ago and just cannot stay away! Bassil's is a favorite at our house now. We have tried the chicken Alfredo, white pizza, Stromboli, wings and fries, cheesecake, chocolate cake, mozzarella sticks, fried ravioli, and garlic knots and ITS ALL SO GOOD. The chicken Alfredo is more like a white baked ziti with ziti noodles and not tossed in Alfredo, but still very good. Bassil's will continue to have our business and we are so glad we stumbled upon it. Can't wait to try more of their menu!

    The food is ok, but the best thing on their menu is definitely the Stromboli, the pizza sauce is a little too sweet for me.

    Catullo's is phenomenal Italian. Probably the best in Jacksonville, if not all north Florida…read more Catullo's would rival even some of the top Italian restaurants in south Florida. Not only am I quite picky, I'm also Italian, and Catullo's absolutely gets it right. No corners are cut here as everything is made with quality and care. I HIGHLY recommend the lemon mascarpone cake. It is absolutely insanely delicious and reminds me of being back on the Amalfi coast. The meatball appetizer is also something truly special. Last time I went I had the scallop lemon pasta and it was perfect. Everything I've had is so good at Catullo's that merely writing this review is making me hungry! The restaurant is always busy, so show up early, but they treat every party with a personal experience. It's a small spot in a strip mall, and the inside has a fun sort of New York Italian American theme.

Well, I have to say that this restaurant can compete with the best in NYC, New Haven, and Providence or Boston! First and foremost, the service was top notch. The attentiveness and efficiency of our waiter was the best, but to top it off, 2 of the owners each came to the table to check on things. This is something that stands out today. I love it. The atmosphere was comfortable yet refined and the place is very clean. The dim lighting is a point that my wife appreciates in a restaurant setting, but our seats were probably the least lit, (our backs to the front window) and our old eyes needed our phone lights to read the menu, haha. The Arancini was perfect and we loved the marinara. My veal dish was magnificent with it's perfectly cooked, large and very tender cutlet. My wife fully enjoyed the Pappardelle con Vongole nero and I thought it was phenomenal. We can't wait to visit the best Italian restaurant in JAX again, when we return in October.

    Probably the BEST BIRTHDAY so far that I could wish or ask for. Thank you god for everything that…read moreyou have given me in life. Having said that what an awesome way to end my birthday with this amazing dinner that I had at this place. One of the best Italian restaurants in Jacksonville I must say. As soon as me and my wife walked in to the restaurant we were greeted and sat right away. The ambiance of this restaurant is truly amazing and very Italian vibe. We were greeted by our server MORGAN who was fantastic from beginning to the end. She suggested some incredible stuff that as a vegetarian I tried and was just amazing. For drinks we had mojito and pinacolada which was nice and refreshing. For appetiser we were recommended with Pomodoro Caprese which was amazing especially their Pesto sauce. For my entree she suggested me Luingini Josephine which was unique and nice pasta. Morgan surprised me with a dessert which was very kind of her. Overall this family owned small business is an amazing must try Italian restaurant. I can't wait to back and try more stuff. I highly recommend this restaurant.

    Back to back reviews everyone we are here again with the same group. Got my good buddy Bezos,…read moreogre, bs wife, and tragic.. Initially, we were going to Coopers Hawk, but forgot we had to make a reservation a year prior. We were told a 2 hour wait! That is wild given how big the place is. But again it is a Saturday night, and people were smarter than us and made reservations, and thus we left. After giving the news to ogre she full on had a rage attack in the parking lot screaming for those classic Coopers Hawk egg rolls. While we were consoling her I heard a soothing sound coming from behind the restaurant and we landed in front of Enzo's. We were greeted by the kindest owner ever who thankfully along with the help of her staff got us in with no wait, given how packed it was.. We were greeted by a very nice waiter who seemed all over the place though. I think he was definitely new, and was forgetful at times.. Anyways! We got three apps which were all fried stuff. Fried ravioli, Fried mozzarella sticks, Fried calamari. Honestly looking back kind of gross.. but they were solid tasting! Nothing out of the park at all on the apps just your standard.. a little tasteless on the calamari, but then again I had like 3-4 pieces because the ogre consumed them.. but then I got clarification from my good buddy bezos that it was kind of tasteless. The most tastiest was the fried mozzarella! Which shouldn't happen. Onto the entrees! Actually wait side reference note I initially ordered mussels with linguini. It was the worst dish of seafood and pasta I have ever had. I literally NEVER send stuff back, like literally never.. it feels inconsiderate and I feel like a bother even if it is just a little edible I would eat it with no complaints but I literally could not. It was so fishy I am now writing this nauseous. Some of the mussels were also closed, cold or broken.. it was just very very poor and I'm mad I had three mussels. The first one was crazy fishy, but I gave it another shot and then another, because I believe in second and third chances. But no, I was grossed out. Not to mention consuming all the fried prior. I also ordered a soup that was forgotten, and didn't get my cocktail sauce, but not really an issue if the dish was made to torture people with. Eventually I did get my soup and it wasn't bad! But now onto the entrees! Bezos: Chicken francese Tragic: veal parm Ogre: Chicken parm Doctor B Wife: Chicken Caprese Me: after the swap I got Veal Parm (thanks tragic) Oh and we had some garlic bread, but it needed some sauce or added flavor with it idk.. Reviews! Ogre: The chicken was good Wife: Mid Bezos: *yawn* ummmm Tragic: Italian stallion Me: the veal was solid, but that dish was so bad before that I lost all my appetite and I am just bleh.. and our waiter seemed a little lost.. again nice guy but come on. All in all we are grateful we were taken in by Enzo's and that owner seemed like she was a hardworking person that definitely can inspire her staff. I loved the piano playing, and the environment was really pleasant. Although me personally I disagree with the food, that dish was the worst ever, and our waiter again although nice was extremely forgetful. I feel sick to my stomach and I probably am going to vomit. But thank you again you gave us a good night and a place to eat..

    The first time I've come here for an actual meal (rather than just a seat at the bar with maybe a…read moresnack) and I enjoyed it! We came for a birthday dinner. I had the very simple rigatoni bolognese. Pasta was cooked to a perfect al dente and the sauce was really good. It was a little on the sweet side for me, but tasted pretty fresh! They also brought us out an "on the house" mushroom appetizer that was delicious. If you like mushrooms, get it! I also sampled the lobster ravioli (on special) and enjoyed it. I am not a huge lobster anything fan, but even I thought it was pretty good! I also had a glass of the house red wine blend they have and that was one of the best house wines I've had in a long time! Super smooth. Teeniest bit sweet. No aftertaste at all. The service was wonderful. Our waitress was attentive and very knowledgeable and just generally great. I had only sat in the bar area previously and thought it could get a little loud but I felt less so about the restaurant itself. The tables are nicely spaced from each other so you have your privacy. My only complaint (and not really a complaint a just a warning so no one is surprised if it comes up... ) is that they charge a $30 cake fee if you bring your own cake. It's just a little bit of a bummer, but I totally understand why. They were super polite about it when I called. Anyhow... food and service was great. Would go again!

They knew what they were doing when they designed the interior. We sat at a large booth, but next time I'd enjoy the vibey bar seating. For drinks, I got a gin martini with a lemon twist, which was perfection! But I also got to try some other cocktails around the table and really enjoyed the creativity in the bar program. Nothing was overly sweet. All of it was balanced and felt fresh. I didn't get any wine, but saw some familiar bottles of natural wine in their visible cellar. I imagine they have some good ones to pair with a rich pasta! Some favorites from our order were the carpaccio, the sourdough focaccia (DROOL), and the 'nduja arancini with a goat cheese crema. I also loved the rigatoni bolognese, which was rich and had a deep flavor that comes with slow cooking time. The staff were a DELIGHT. Not only our server (tiny blonde whose name I can't remember unfortunately), but also the bartenders who we also had the chance to chat with. Even the owner came by to say hi to our table. It took the experience to the next level and made me sure I'll return for more pasta and cocktails!
