Pepperoni pizza
Kay-Lee H.

My family has been coming here for years and they've always had incredible food. Their pizza is the best! They also have a great selection of other foods such as appetizers, salads, subs, pasta, etc. Overall great Italian food!

Pathetic meatball sub and customer service! I have ordered a meatball sub numerous times from this place. They give 3 meatballs, but they are large enough to fill the roll. What I got were small meatball, very little sauce and the cheese not all the way melted. I called and was told the manager not there and nothing they could do. What waste at $12 plus delivery fees. I will think twice ordering from here again. Maybe stick with the cheesesteaks or pizza. Note, i have a pic to post but Google doesn't allow it. Will post this review in another place too.

This place is just okay. Crusty bread and Italian meats (pepperoni, sausage, meatballs) are very good. Tomato sauce really bland and thin. Panini burger was pretty good for the price and tastes better with bacon added. The Italians working here are awesomely talkative and loud -- probably the best part about stopping here for food!

Dined on 10/13/2012 We have driven past this place for years without realizing what a decent pizza place this is. I love it when you can order pizza by the slice, and better yet, they let you custom order the slice. My wife and I enjoyed their pizza very much. We had a side of sauce as well, and it is not too sweet. They have a pretty substantial Italian menu, while it is counter service ordered, it is not fast food, and the food is served at the table. We will be back!!!

The Lasagna + chess garlic bread (side). The lasagna was terrific.

The owner here is truly a stand‑up guy. While we were waiting for our table, we watched him be…read moreincredibly kind to a patron with Down syndrome--she came out absolutely beaming because he let her make her own espresso. The restaurant was packed. It was a very kind thing to do. That moment alone set the tone for the night. The food was outstanding. Better than we remembered it being. The bread arrived warm, and the oil had garlic in it. I never dunk in garlic oil, but tonight I was dunking everything. The bolognese was the perfect balance of creaminess, meat, and cheese. We also ordered two pizzas, both very enjoyable, and the lasagna was a hit as well. Our server was attentive and quick with requests, and the owner made a point to stop by most tables, which added a personal touch. We will definitely be back.

Nothing really ever changes here...I've tried it every few months going back 15+ years. I go in…read moreevery few months for lunch and a drink because it's very close and convenient...figure I'll give it another chance. I had the "beef ravioli" a few days ago...the "marinara" sauce is sugary Ragu out of a jar at best. Still the same cheap bread that so obviously came frozen and fell off the back of a Sysco truck. Nice enough people I suppose and the service is perfectly adequate...I guess the family that owns it is trying...but I sure wish the food quality was 3x better at Enotria. Hire a far better chef, charge a couple bucks more if you need to, and buy far better quality ingredients. I'm no restaurant owner, but perhaps the solution is to cut the menu size by a 1/3rd and do the remainder far better. I'd be a regular at Enotria 2-3 times a week if it were actually high-end, fresh, quality Italian. There are carry out places in the area that have significantly better food than Enotria (Italian Sensation being a long time example). Vito's in Cockeysville is 3x better every single time. Drive to Reisterstown and Kecco's is excellent (a bit far away, admittedly). Liberatore's in Bel Air, while not close to as good as Vito's...is certainly better than Enotria and has picked it up during 2025 with a new chef. Enotria is in a tie for dead last Italian food in its area with Basta Pasta in Fallston...that would be the other slop Italian place in the area. I'd gladly pay more for a lunch or a dinner at Enotria if it were much higher caliber Italian food...and I suspect a lot of others would too. Enotria as it stands is completely cliche, marginal, "least common denominator" Italian food at most. Just because you play the same Dean Martin songs on repeat and yell "Bella Bella" to every woman that walks through the front door doesn't mean the food is any good.

Dennis was absolutely fantastic. The best server I've had in ages. Attentive, friendly, and made…read morethe whole experience feel special. We never had an empty water or had to ask twice for anything. We started with the mozzarella logs, which were fresh, crispy, and delicious. The spaghetti egg rolls were a fun and unexpected twist, super filling and packed with interesting flavors. The pizza was solid, though cooked a bit more than I usually prefer. The fra diavola had a nice kick and came in a generous portion. The build-your-own pasta bowl was enormous, overflowing with pasta and all the toppings we picked. I also tried the short rib dish. It was good, but at $30, I'm still deciding if it was worth it. It arrived lukewarm, so I'll reheat the leftovers and see how it holds up. Dessert was fun: the homemade chip-witch! Warm cookies that tasted way better than they looked , with melty homemade ice cream in between. A perfect finish which we split 4 ways. It is much smaller than I expected inside. I would make a reservation on weekends during busy hours just to be safe. We walked in at 8p on a Saturday and had our pick of a table. Overall, the service made the night, and the menu had some satisfying options. I wanted to love it but it was just ok overall.

We had calamari as an appetizer which was good and was delivered quickly. My entree was the prosciutto pizza which was good. My mother has veal parmesan and really enjoyed it. The restaurant was crowded when we went and all of our entrees too a very long time to come out of the kitchen. This was my second time hear and the first time there were no issues with timely food delivery. I'd usually give 3 stars but out waitress Cindy was outstanding. She's definitely the reason I'd go back.

A meal to remember. We had a club banquet with about 19 people and we were all so impressed with…read morethe food and service. Our large group had two wonder servers that took care of us like we were the only one there. Each and every meal was incredible and something I didn't expect would even be possible, they served us all at the same time. Even the atmosphere was fun and comfortable. I picked this restaurant because we have always had great meals here, such as date night and client outings etc. I highly recommend this place to anyone I'm speaking with when the subject of restaurants come up. Next time you want to have a great meal, book a reservation and go. I highly suggest booking a reservation because this place is so popular now it's always hopping. Great job to the entire staff at Bacco!!!!

Good- Cream of Crab, my son and daughter-in-law claimed it was the best they've ever had. It was rich. Good- abundance of water bottles and bread & oil on table, This aided to welcoming to the restaurant. Manager was up front in a suit and that impression made ya feel like you made a good restaurant selection. Good- Pollo Fungi aka: Marsala, I e had this in the past and it never disappoints Hood- espresso martini, waitress had the bartender twist this drink with caramel. Tasty said my daughter!!!!Good- Bruschetta Napoletana which I could have ate all of it. Good- Ahi Tuna Bad- no bad. Other dishes- Calamari, Cacciuccio aka: Chioppino, Fettuccini Saffron Great meal in a very very full restaurant!

However, the Dynamite Shrimp felt like an attempted knockoff of a well-known "...Grill" version and didn't quite measure up. As someone who considers myself an Italian food connoisseur, I truly love Italian cuisine, I was especially disappointed in the chicken parmigiana. It was dry, flavorless, and completely covered in a red sauce that was overly tangy and not very enjoyable. In my opinion, the dish was under-seasoned and lacked balance. Even the complimentary bread was underwhelming and not very tasty. Service was mixed. Our main waiter was pleasant and attentive. Unfortunately, his backup was rude and pushy. When I was asking questions about a menu item, she attempted to take the menu out of my hands before I had finished. I felt rushed and unheard, which was frustrating. Overall, I left hungry and disappointed, especially given that Italian cuisine is usually my favorite.

We popped in during their soft opening, when it was just the owner and his wife in the restaurant. They did not have the whole menu available yet, but the eggplant parm pizza we got was truly delightful. We cant wait to go back. There is no dine in option available. This is solely a take away place with a small bench up front to sit on while you wait for your order.

I have seen people post on FB, it's the best pizza in Baltimore - it isn't. Like I said it is decent but Ribaldi's on Keswick is better. The wings were packed in a plastic container which steamed whatever crisp they had on them off and they were a breaded soggy mess. The Italian Cold Cut was really lacking, way too much bread, half of it didn't have capocollo, it was boiled ham, a couple thin slices of genoa and provolone, only a slice of capocollo on one half. Nope. The arancini didn't have much taste in the filling or rice other than salt and it tasted like fryer oil. The marinara just tasted like a bay leaf.
