Wow, this place has some amazing food! The Old Fashioneds were delicious, with three different options to choose from, and the service was truly next level. I love that they transformed an old house into such a beautiful restaurant, complete with gorgeous lake views and an incredible sunset. With both an indoor and outdoor bar, a beautiful setting, great drinks, and incredible food, it made for such a great night. We'll definitely be back! read more

Disappointing Anniversary Celebration My husband and I chose Enzo's on the Lake for our first visit to celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary, and unfortunately, the experience was extremely disappointing. From the moment our server introduced himself, he appeared overwhelmed and distracted. We understand it was Magical Dining season and restaurants are busier than usual, so we tried to be patient and understanding throughout the evening. After placing our drink order, it took some time for the drinks to arrive, but since we weren't in any rush, this wasn't an issue. In fact, the drinks were excellent and were one of the few highlights of the evening. We ordered the meatballs and Caesar salad as appetizers. Surprisingly, they arrived only a few minutes after ordering, which may explain why the quality was lacking. The meatballs were only room temperature and not particularly tender, while the Caesar salad was wilted. For our entrees, I ordered the Fettuccine Al Aragosta e Gamberi and my husband ordered the Ravioli della Casa. The meals arrived just 5 to 7 minutes after ordering. Although the plates themselves were hot, the food was barely warm. The ravioli had decent flavor, but the fettuccine was completely tasteless. Overall, we were left with the impression that the food was not freshly prepared. What was equally disappointing was the lack of service. Throughout the meal, our server never checked on us to ask whether everything was satisfactory or if we needed anything. We were never offered another round of drinks. To make matters worse, when he cleared our table to bring the dessert menu, he took my drink even though I had not finished it. He then offered to bring me a "half drink" as a replacement, which was confusing and inappropriate. Between the disappointing food, inattentive service, and overall poor dining experience, our special anniversary celebration fell far short of expectations. Unfortunately, this visit did not leave us with any reason to return, and we will not be dining here again. read more

Enzo's on the Lake - Italian Near Me - longwood, Florida

We went for Magical Dining Experience to try Enzo's. The prix fix fare is a nice selection for the money. We each chose an appetizer, entree and dessert. I chose the salad and my husband chose the antipasto, both were very good. I had the catch of the day that was a decent size of a white fish over polenta with broccolini. It was a very tasty fish and some of the best polenta I've ever had. My husband upgraded from an 8oz strip steak to a filet. He said it was delicious. For dessert I had the panna cotta which is a cream mold and very light in texture and flavor, but oh so good. My husband tried the cake slice and it had bits of fresh fruit in layers. Also very good. Service was quite attentive and friendly. Every few minute we were checked on. We were seated towards the back of the house overlooking the lake and our little room only had three tables in it. A much more intimate dining experience. We are both very happy we did this and will have to come back to Enzo's again. read more

We celebrated my MILs bday here, which was right in the middle of Magic Dining. The menu is phenomenal, the food delicious and the service top notch. I love the ambiance and decor as well. It's on the pricey side so if you can, wait for magic dining to come around and try it. The view to the lake is beautiful and it's also perfect for a romantic occasion. Quick edit to let everyone know that they bring AMAZING Italian cookies at the end of the meal. read more

Came here for my friends birthday. For a group of 7 the seating was a little squished, the interior setup isn't the best for a big group. The waitress was attentive and everyone was happy with their meals and drinks. The interior is unremarkable but the exterior is gorgeous. I highly recommend a reservation just before or after sunset and plan to spend some time sitting out enjoying the lake view. I had the filet formaggio and it was a very good cut. The potatoes and green beans were also delicious! read more

I would love to do a 3.5 to a 4 for this one ! We went for my birthday dinner and I hadn't been to Enzo's since 2022. The service was great everyone was really really nice and obviously the view is OUTSTANDING. We went outside after the meal and drank our wine by the water and listened to the live entertainer playing guitar. I also didn't know, but they have a new outdoor casual bar outside on the water which I will return to soon! The soup was the best party of our meal and we tried the special which was pasta de carne type. It was just okay. Like I said the soup was better . But I think the trend with most places is that the quality has gone down and prices continue to go up. read more

Wow! What a lovely night! Rudy was an excellent waiter making wonderful recommendations and providing outstanding service. However, everyone we encountered was helpful, friendly and cared about our experience. We started with the Antipasto Della Casa was lovely! Cannelloni beans, marinated shrimp, cheese. Salami, olives, and more! For dinner we had the Bucatini Alla Enzo and the Filetto Con Formaggio. The pasta was outstanding! The mushrooms made the dish but the quality of all the ingredients--excellent! Rudy's recommendation of the Chianti paired perfectly. The steak my partner had was cooked perfectly and was melt in your mouth tender. The slice of cake for my birthday and the cookies were a great ending. Be sure to go outside and sit by the lake. We listened to the guitarist for a while and watched the sun set. A perfect special occasion place but also somewhere to have a few drinks and nibbles and enjoy the sunset and music. read more

Complimentary valet to start, so make sure to have some cash to tip. They started us off with warm bread and breadsticks with butter. We asked for another basket because it was so good to eat with the meal. We tried: Two specials: the stuffed filet with blueberry and spinach served with mashed potatoes and a black truffle sauce and the Chilean seabass with polenta. Both were fantastic, and my favorite dishes of the meal. The fettucine with shrimp and lobster is a staple here, so got 2 dishes to share with the table. The shrimp was just slightly bland to me. The sauce was great to dip the bread into. The bucatini was also good as well as the veal scallopini which had a lemon fruity sauce to it. The Cab Sauv (Roth from Sonoma) was very good, very fruit-forward, almost sweet. The Chianti was also delicious, more balanced dryness. We came here to celebrate my birthday and they gave us a complimentary slice of cake! There was also some Italian cookies that usually comes with each meal - gingerbread sugar cookies and a lemon powdered sugar one. read more

I am so in love with this Central Florida Gem! Amazing food accompanied by beautiful lakeside views. I love having them prepare a special plate from the appetizer Buffet. My favorite dishes are the Agnella and the Formaggio Filet. I love when they have special events on the lake dock. That's when you can try their famous pizza! Staring over the water while enjoying a fancy beverage in the garden is one of my favorite places to be . read more

We came in for dinner and had a lovely experience. The restaurant is beautiful and cozy. The view of the lake is stunning. Service was fantastic and very attentive. I enjoyed a fat glass of red wine and fresh baked bread and butter. For my entree, I got the carbonara. The pasta was fresh and perfectly cooked. The bacon was tender and not too salty and paired perfectly with the cheesy buttery noodles and cracked pepper. This is a great spot for a special occasion. It's a smaller restaurant so be sure to get a reservation. read more

Enzo's on the Lake - Spaghetti Alla Carbonara - Italian Near Me - longwood, Florida

Years ago, I used to work close to Enzo's on the Lake and would drive past it all the time. It's a very unassuming place that you'd never know was there. One day I googled it and was surprised what I discovered. A beautiful upscale lake house / Italian restaurant with an indoor and outdoor bar overlooking Fairy Lake! Well, that day finally arrived. To celebrate our nuptials, I decided this was the perfect opportunity! I made a reservation online a week prior using 'Open Table" and was only able to get a 5:15pm rsvp. My advice would be to RSVP well in advanced because the place isn't large and tables fill up very quickly. We arrived about 10 minutes early but we were not immediately seated. They seem to be very methodical here. They also have self-parking and complementary valet. Enzo's is very beautiful and well-maintained inside and out. Our waiter, Ernesto, was very polite and attentive. The entire staff was nice and welcoming. To our surprise the Magical Dining promo was still in effect, so we were able to order from the pre-fix menu which included an appetizer, main course, and desert for $60/each. We both ordered the Bruschetta al Pomodoro, which was good. My wife ordered the Filetto con Formaggio and I ordered the Braciole Di Maiale Alla Saltimbocca. Everything was excellent! For desert, she ordered the Tiramisu and I ordered the Zuccotto (Italian wedding cake). I feel the star of the show was the back area, which was meticulously manicured with a stunning view of Fairy Lake. The sunset was magical and capped off our wonderful evening of celebration. There was also live music which added to the already incredible ambiance. read more

5 Stars for re-discovering this local GEM that feels like a true IYKYK spot. Enzo's is the kind of restaurant that's been around for 40-some odd years and still flies under the radar. It's a place that you won't see plastered all over social media, instead a low-key perfect Italian restaurant inside a historic house on a lake. The folks who dine here seem to be those who have dined here for decades. It feels really special. Reservations are a must for this old-school white napkin restaurant and should the weather be nice- try to get a spot outside on the newly-renovated patio! In terms of food, I haven't had a bad dish yet. The pasta is made in-house, the meat is top notch, and the staff is your best bet to help you pick the right dish. Plus, their bar is ready to make you a perfect martini. Just be sure to save room for dessert! This is a special occassion spot that just made it back on my rotation after forgetting about it for over a decade! Never again! read more

Enzo's on the Lake was nothing short of amazing for our family. We reserved a table a week in advance, but would have had no issue getting a table at 5:30pm on a Wednesday. For an appetizer, we all enjoyed the soup of the day which was some sort of mushroom. We all enjoyed our pasta dishes as well. The service was great and the restaurant is adorable. The view of Lake Fairy is priceless. Looks like they have a really nice backyard area as well. We will be back! read more

I'm rating this review somewhere between 3.0 to 3.5. Read on to know why. Enzos on the Lake! A classic Italian restaurant in terms of the vibe and setting (the restaurant is out of an old house that sits on lake fairy in Longwood and the menu has mainly traditional classic items). I had the opportunity to eat here twice in one week (Wednesday and Saturday) so I'll blend parts of both into this narrative! Both visits I was sat by the windows that overlook the backyard of this house. There is outside casual seating with live music (certain days) with the lake and sunset views just behind. I don't believe full service is offered outside. On the Saturday visit I requested a window seat and it appears the note I made on my reservation wasn't there anymore so we had to wait a little longer which was no big deal. Inside immediately to the left after the front door is a small bar area that you can walk up to and order a beverage that also provides drinks to the staff to take to tables. There is a small area to hang out but if you have time, I'd try and go wait outside in the backyard area. Side note: their Enzo's Old Fashioned is $25 and the only spin is they put in some Disarrano! Get any other drink and save yourself $10. Both times we were greeted by older servers that seemed both experienced and with the company for many years! We ordered a few appetizers that were ok (I've had better caprese and burrata) the tomatoes on the caprese were ok. We opted for the beef filet which was cooked well but not an impressive cut or large portion for $51 which comes with a few potatoes and broccolini. My other visit I had the mixed grill special which was underwhelming in portion (around 1-2 bites for each item) and the flavors were adequate. We of course went with the Enzo's cheesecake which was surprisingly not overly sugary and was softer cheesecake which on this visit was welcomed. All in all this was noticably a much more expensive experience compared, to say, another lakeside restaurant like Hillstone. I think Enzo's misses out on almost every comparison (views, style of restaurant, quality of food, price to value) unless Italian food is your defining factor in which venue to select. Enzos sold sometime in the last year or two and my guess is new owners have slowly increased cost. Check out Luca Turci, Romes Flavors, or even Prato instead. read more

This was my first time at Enzo's on the Lake. I heard really great things about this restaurant. The atmosphere was the best thing about this restaurant. It's aged and on the water. The ceasar salads had a ton of dressing but tasted good. The carbonara tasted like pancetta. Would probably recommend something different. The fettuccini was great. The halibut was also nice, perhaps a little over cooked. The desserts were also nice. The service was nice. Brandon was very accommodating. Would I return? Maybe if it wasn't an hour long drive for us. We will likely not return but had a nice experience. read more

Such a cute and charming spot--perfect for a special occasion. We came here for Mother's Day and absolutely loved it. The restaurant is set in a former residence turned into a cozy, authentic Italian restaurant back in the 1980s, I believe! The Ravioli Della Casa which was stuffed with ricotta, chicken, and spinach was TOO good. Truly chef's kiss! I ended on a sweet note with the salted caramel gelato, which was the perfect finish. Overall great service and awesome vibe! read more

We've been to Enzo's many times over the years and we like to save it for a special occasions. It's a charming, old house on the lake with beautiful views and rich Mediterranean vibes inside. In the evenings, the place does get a bit cramped and fairly loud, so be mindful of that. The food is good, though it's fairly traditional. Service was a little slow, but I think they have have been understaffed a bit, or maybe they had some new folks working this past year. In case you're looking for a quiet date night I might not recommend this for something quiet, but might be better for groups or celebrations. But they do have various rooms that have different styles, and even just opened up a new bar area that looks really nice. We definitely want to come back and check that out some time. read more

I'm from central Florida and this was my first visit to Enzo's. Do not be like me and let the outside/location fool you! They were packed on a Friday night. We had reservations, which I highly recommend. There is a bar in the front that you can order from while waiting to be sat. Our server suggestions was incredible and made sure we had the best night. We were all blown away by the food! Our table ordered the lamb, the carbonara, steaks and a vegetarian dish. For dessert we had gelato. Everything was amazing. I can't say enough good things about our experience except that we are looking forward to the next one read more

Was here on Mothers Day.. got a lovely table and had a great waitress.. unfortunately the food too a long time to get and I was hungry, did not eat breakfast or lunch, had a wine and got very sleepy, ate a lot of bread. Finally got my carbonara and could not believe how little pasta I got on my plate.. after all the waiting! Had enough prosciutto but not enough pasta.. you'd think pasta is cheap to add a bit more.. the price on my pasta wasn't! It was $31! For what? Never paid that much for pasta. Will not be coming back! read more

I admired the homey, family, vintage atmosphere. We had a lovely view of the lake. Service was great!

The lamb chops were cooked perfectly. We had a great experience. read more

Wow! Excellent Italian fare at this waterfront spot. The restaurant itself operates from what was formerly a lakefront house. White linen service, with tables placed far enough apart to mute conversation and not feel crowded even when every table full. We were seated at the window overlooking the lake, tranquil until a squadron of jet skiers took turns jumping wakes. Thanks to the double pane windows, the action on the water was a silent side show as we enjoyed our food. An extensive wine list accompanies a half dozen specials, plus the full menu. Service is professional yet relaxed - we weren't rushed. Orders, including special requests, accommodated with a flourish. Started with burrata. A ball of burrata is served surrounded in roasted tomato & garlic with a sprinkle of Kalamata olives and slices of crunchy grilled ciabatta. The cheese is luxuriously smooth and creamy, perfectly complemented by the sweet roasted tomato, salty olives and crunchy bread. I tried Fettucine al'Aragosta e Gamberi. Outstanding house-made fettucine is cooked perfectly al dente and tossed with alfredo sauce uniquely enhanced with saffron and green onion. Then topped with beautiful shrimp and lobster meat. They shrimp are huge, halved, curled and succulent. A nice crunch to each bite, they aren't rubbery or mushy. Lobster is a tad disappointing because it's more slivers than chunks but still sweet and tender, perfectly complemented by the rich, creamy sauce. YUM! I tried a bite of vegetable ravioli. House-stuffed ravioli are stuffed with a mix of perfectly seasoned mix of ricotta, chicken and spinach, then boiled to al dente perfection. Topped with a wonderful red sauce, slightly sweet and flavored with veal. Delicious! Also sampled Bucatini alla Enzo. Bucatini are thick, hollow spaghetti, served topped with a light cream sauce and then tossed with prosciutto, bacon, mushrooms and peas. It's a hearty mix with the distinct flavors of each ingredient in each bite. Bucatini is a unique texture - you're expecting spaghetti but it's hollow. Really good! Even though there was no room for dessert, a plate of cookies tops off the meal. Outstanding ginger snaps and powdered sugar wedding cookies were the perfect end to an excellent meal. Recommended! read more

Went here for my best friends bday and to celebrate new years. She had been talking about going here for some time now. We were running late for our reservation and I called and they were very accommodating in moving it for a little bit later. Once we got seated the service was very good and waiter was very personable. The place is an old house that was transformed into an Italian villa with lots of windows overlooking the lake. Very cozy and rustic, we loved it. Now onto the food.....OMG. She got one of the specials which was a Chilean sea bass over polenta and green beans. The sauce was the star of the show, so good. I ended up getting the butterfly shrimp and cheesy risotto and broccoli. Again this was amazing as well. We split the tiramisu and each got the nutty Irish coffee. It was a great all around night. Very special. Unfortunately I did not get any pictures of the food. Only us!!!! Lol read more

Some friends brought us and the food was fabulous. Unfortunelty on this night the poor waitress had too many tables and the service was just lousy. Waited 45 mins for drinks, wrong drinks arrived, waiting another 30 mins to order food, then food was parsed out and we all eat at different times. Not a great experience, but the food was GREAT! And, I understand from out friends it's no normally like this.. so the four stars. read more

Hands down one of the best dining experiences I've ever had! Food was incredible and so was the service. I knew this place would be good as soon as we pulled up and it was packed on a Wednesday night. Valet parking only btw. Quaint, charming building with a view of a lake. Our large group from work came in to experience their five course menu offering: Bread service, Pear salad, scallops, pasta, beef Wellington and tiramisu. All courses impeccably plated and the flavors were amazing. Every bite a treat and the meal was the perfect size. Our waiters were on top of everything. Pacing of the food was spot on. Can't wait to go back! read more

I have wanted to come here for years and it didn't disappoint. I only wish I had been able to stay for the live music. Food was wonderful.

If you are in central florida, Enzos offers the absolute best Italian food and overall experience. Homemade Pasta that is delicious .

We enjoyed a wonderful romantic evening at Enzo's on the Lake . We made a reservation and we were seated shortly after our arrival. We were honestly still full from an earlier meal so we took most of our entree to go. We started with drinks and bread. Our first round of drinks were the mule and the Rosemary lavender smash . I loved that the straws were pasta noodles. our second round was the espresso martini and old fashioned. All the drinks were great. We then ordered an appetizer Bruschetta Mozzarella, it was so delicious & full of flavor ! For our entrees we decided on the Filetto Con Formaggio & Linguine e Vongole we took a bite, but as I stated before we were full so we let our amazing waiter know and he boxed and bagged our plates to go. He brought us over some complimentary homemade cookies that were delicious . I'm not a huge fan of ginger snaps but the ones here were spectacular. The ambiance is so Romantic . They have live music on the outside patio/bar area . So we walked out there after dinner and enjoyed some music while looking at the lake. It was a perfect date night. The staff , food , customer service & ambiance were great . We ate our entrees the next day and they heated well and tasted delicious. My pasta could have used a little more seasoning , but I still enjoyed it . read more

We were greeted with a door covered in rewards. Invited by word of mouth. Reviews looked good. Yikes. I will never be back. It's a cute building. Kitschy. Bad location though... Way better italian options in the area. Or even just go to olive garden. I so wish we had gone to olive garden. We celebrated my friends birthday here and what a disappointment. the tables were haphazardly pushed together and had a weird cushion? squishy and awkard. i feared my drinks would spill and my gf's drink DID spill. they also left all the empty wine glasses on the table throughout service. everyone else ordered cocktails. multiple ! give up on the bottle up sell. Service was VERY lackluster. Our server treated us like the bane of his existence. He couldn't even split a check. It would have been 4 checks for the table which. That's normal. He made it seem like the most difficult thing. Why complain. He got his auto gratuity. Speaking of service the looks and comments i heard from the the valet as we waited to leave... Inappropriate. Comments on our looks and homophobic behavior. keep it to yourself. drinks? good. hard to mess up a glass of wine. food? AWFUL. especially for the prices. i'm a disney gal. same price range. but disney with its quality is leagues better. which. you know. portions are small here. carpaccio was oily and like scraping residue off the plate. it was also doused in pepper. what it needed was some salt which wasn't brought for our friend who also ordered it waayyy later. also no bread or cracker to eat it with? burrata was awful. jarred sauce quality for the tomato. the bread was OILY and full of holes! also thin. the burrata its self? dry. i thought it was basically a ball of mozzarella on my plate. and the main entree.... goodness. it tasted like tap water! that's the only flavor i got. it was cooooolllldddd. so cold and dry. yet overcooked. pitiful amount of meat. our friends also complained about cold food. and the small portions. read more

The building is old, but the ambience inside is nice. The bathrooms are a problem though, because as a 5'1 woman why were my knees against the stall door while I try to pee? The appetizers were okay but the burrata was very disappointing. It wasn't juicy and creamy like it should be and it was also a very small portion. The carpaccio was okay, but definitely needed a little seasoning and should have come with bread on the side. We got one entree to share and the pasta was overcooked (for a $38 plate at a nice Italian place that is a problem). The pasta was not even lukewarm, but room temperature :( (again, $38 plate of food) My friends at our table said most of their dishes were cold as well. The pasta was dry and flavorless and there wasn't enough lobster or shrimp to justify that pricetag. Drinks were good , but you really can't mess up an espresso martini, so I'm not impressed The service was sub-par, not awful, but not good. No one checked to ask how everything was. Our server acted like splitting our checks was the hardest thing he has ever done. The one redeeming factor of the meal was the complementary cookies at the end. Those were amazing, Nonna made those herself! One other strange thing was the tables were uneven and squishy for some reason (definitely a hazard when it comes to drinks).

Enzo's is a fine dining experience. Elegant, yet very homey. They have different dining areas that are very quaint and intimate.

They have a private terrace for customers and large groups. Even if you do not partake in the spirits, you MUST take a look see at their separate bar area, which is cozy and intimate as can be.

This is a hidden gem in Longwood. It just warms the heart and if you're a long time local like me; you know it's a true staple. The atmosphere feels like you've left the area and went to the most romantic date spot in a different town but you're still in central Florida. I highly recommend getting a drink and listening to music outside then going in for dinner. The service is impeccable and makes the experience even more enjoyable. Food! The bruschetta has the perfect combination of thick, rustic buttery olive oil bread with chunks of mozzarella cheese and cherry tomatoes. Worth every bite! We also tried the Penne alla Vodka which had great flavor. But the star of the show was the Linguine e Vongole, clams in a light tomato sauce with pasta. It was heaven in each bite and never felt heavy. Everything on the menu looked like perfection so venture out as nothing will disappoint. I can't wait to return. read more

It's been years since we've been able to come back into town AND have time to stop at Enzo's, and we haven't been back since the ownership changed in 2022. Fortunately they have continued with excellent service and quality. Rustic lake house inside with good lighting. They do not have a kids menu per se but the fettuccine Alfredo and meatball Polpette appetizer actually worked well for our picky 9 year old, and of course the meatballs are delicious. We had the Bruschetta Al Pomodoro E Mozzarella, I had the short ribs toscana, my son had the 8 oz filet special, and my wife the Fettucine Al'Aragosta E Gamberi (shrimp and lobster in a saffron cream sauce). Everything was delicious just like we remember. Dessert, the four of us split the Tiramisu and Soufflé chocolate cake. Complementary valet parking. Compared to Nonno's in Altamonte it's a little more upscale but they are both excellent choices if you are on that end of town. Enzo's is absolutely worth the drive if you can do it from the resort area. read more

Enzo's on the Lake is not related to Enzo's in Disney Springs, and that's a good thing. It reminded me of a few California restaurants with an old-school feel, solid food choices, excellent service, and charm from a previous era. One issue is the noise level, it was harder to hear the server or our dinner companions. It's not shouting level, but dampening the noise should be addressed. Our server was excellent, and she could hear our requests over the noise. I ordered the Dover Sole, which was the priciest item on the menu, being a special that was market price. It was the most tender, lightly flavored white fish with a light batter, and I was fortunate to take some home with me, for the dogs, yeah right. My spouse had the vodka penne, which she said was excellently prepared. Sadly, she took most of her entree home because she filled up on the Mozzarella Caprese, Caesar salad, and bread. Her father always gives the admonition; Don't fill up on the bread! She said that the bread and appetizers were so good she couldn't help it. One of our dinner companions felt that the Veal Scallopini was made to perfection, to quote Scollozo in Godfather I, try the veal, it's the best in the city. I will return and recommend this restaurant as a casual upscale alternative to other Italian restaurants. read more
