    Margherita pizza
    Kayla A.

    Had previously had a decent experience but far from it this time! When we went in to order, we found it strange and unsanitary that the only menu for customers was on top of the trash bins counter for the restaurant. We ordered a Margherita pizza and garlic knots and they were not very good. I'm unsure as to what cheese they used but it was definitely not fresh mozzarella like the recipe calls for. The whole vibe was off tonight and between the workers bickering and them making me feel like an inconvenience just asking to pick up my pizza order I don't think I'll be back

    Can you say shrimp goodness? Yum

    This place came highly recommended and now we know why. Everything is made fresh and you can taste the goodness in each bite. The owners are so friendly and passionate we really enjoyed talking with them. Service was amazing. This is a place with a lot regulars as people coming in knew each others name. So you know it's the spot to go to. If you're thinking about getting the sausage, do not hesitate to. It's delicious and the sauce makes it even more amazing. There's several booths and tables to dine in. It's cozy and clean. You have to try it!!!

    The thing is if you don't know what real pizza is you don't understand what the real deal is ... chewy crisp dough that has not been rushed to proof, proper topping amount,excellent sauce... I go here every Friday- the family is lovely,friendly as can be and rolls out the best pizza anywhere around here by far. Don't sleep on the canolis either there are ridiculous. Thank you Vitos for perfect predictably in a world where Noone seems to d po anything with love and passion.

    Garlic knots - delish!

    Stopped here based off of yelp's review and could not believe how phenomenal it was! Super cute inside, everyone was super friendly, they baked their own bread! I had chicken Parm, which was probably the best I've ever eaten, the pizza was incredible, garlic knots fantastic, highly highly highly recommend!

    This is the color of the back of pizza I prefer.

    Pizza is excellent. You have several specialty pizzas to choose from for the pizza by the slice purchase other than cheese. Service is friendly and family oriented. Quaint restaurant with wall scenes of Sicily where the family returns to every summer. Come try it out!

    Penne Vito's (amazing pasta dish w/ ground beef mushrooms salami in a pink cream sauce)

    Amazing food! Eating at this little neighborhood gem is like taking a trip to Sicily. It is authentic southern Italian cuisine at its finest! We order take out here often and their San Danielle pizza is the best pizza I've ever had, topped with arugula, prosciutto, 1/2 cherry tomatoes and shavings of Parmesan cheese- unreal! And my husband loves the Penne Vito's it's a pasta dish with mushrooms salami ground beef in a pink cream sauce, he raves about it! Tonight for my birthday, we decided to dine in, it's a cosy place, very clean with several booths and tables, they also do a major takeout business thats pretty much non stop. Tonight my husband had his favorite Penne Vito's, he loves it I ordered a new menu item Linguine with shrimp and clams OMG it was amazing!!! Perfectly cooked huge delicious shrimp and tiny sweet clams in an amazing fresh tomato garlic sauce with perfect al dente linguine, meals served with a fresh crisp salad and garlic bread, everything is delicious. But they have my absolute favorite salad anywhere it's their special salad and it's an antipasto with pickled vegetables and cheeses and it's amazing, so I can't go there without ordering it. Also a shout out to Jess for taking excellent care of us, she was very attentive to our needs and checked on us throughout the meal. I highly recommend this fantastic family owned authentic Italian restaurant.

    Finally gave this place a try and it was tasty. They had some indoor seating and they sell pieces of pizza by the slice. There was a stuffed pizza that looked super yummy, the worker said it is not always made so I am trying to go back to try that. The pepperoni pizza was tasty and the perfect thickness. I will be back!

    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.

    I recently dined here with my wife, while visiting my son. We are from the north east and are used…read moreto great Italian food. 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!
