Enzo Bruni La Pizza Gourmet

Where do I begin, this place is not a restaurant, it's an experience by itself. We celebrated one of our friends birthday as a girls night out and couldn't have done this at better place than this. Gianni, the owner of the restaurant treats all the customers like his own guests. Not only the food was amazing, but he made a very special pasta. I am uploading a picture of it and I bet you have never seen it anywhere else. I have dietary restrictions and he made sure to serve me the food of my need. I super recommend this place and can't wait to bring my husband there again.

My friend celebrated her birthday at this restaurant, and everyone, including me, was absolutely delighted! The dining hall is very cozy, the menu is diverse, and the dishes are incredibly delicious. I especially loved the rice balls! The service was outstanding, with the restaurant owner himself kindly assisting us. I’ll definitely come back here for a date with my husband!

A few blocks from the NYC skyline, this cozy Neapolitan gem truly feels like stepping into Chef Enzo’s home in Naples. The romantic atmosphere, authentic food, and BYOB option (bring your favorite bottle 🍷) make it even more special. Standout dishes included the speck-topped butternut squash soup, an authentic Neapolitan frittata (a rare and delicious pasta rice ball), and Il Panuozzo a must-try Neapolitan sandwich made from pizza dough. The La Karina pizza was incredible, topped with mozzarella, artichoke cream, imported mortadella, ricotta, Parmigiano Reggiano, pistachio, basil, and EVOO. The Rigatoni Don Giovà, with rich ragu, guanciale, eggplant cream, and Parmigiano fondue, was absolute perfection Every bite felt heartfelt, soulful, and unmistakably Naples. This is a must-visit for anyone who loves true Italian cuisine

What an amazing Italian gem in the neighborhood! This will definitely become your new absolute favorite Italian restaurant to visit. The atmosphere is so welcoming, and the food is incredibly delicious. The interior design pairs perfectly with the presentation and flavors on the plate, and the overall experience will take you back to Italy. Truly something to write home about!

Had the most incredible dinner with my family last night. Started with the Cod Fish fritters and meatballs, each bite was simply amazing. I choose the ricotta and lemonchello ravioli which took me right back to the Amalfi coast. The live music the romantic lighting and the quaint atmosphere made this place one I will come to again.

Came in for a birthday dinner. We made a reservation on a Friday night. Had a pizza to start. She had eggplant parm. I had carbonara. Dessert was great too. Service was outstanding, even tho they were packed. 10/10 would eat again!

Maryam Fatemi

Great local spot with quality food and plenty of options! We had the La Karina pizza (delicious!) and chicken cutlet (a bit salty but still good). The Tartufo with cappuccino for dessert was perfect. Definitely coming back to try more!

If you want good and authentic italian food I highly recommend this place. Not only do they have good food but also an amazing staff.

Absolutely delicious food! Very tasty, home-made, fresh and a good variety of pasta and pizza. Giovanni provided a great customer service by being very attentive, warm and friendly, making us feel very welcomed in the restaurant and in the city. We were served some warm bread as a mini-starter and that was delicious! Also the place it’s very cosy and has some nice music and atmosphere. I would definitely come to eat here again!

We recently visited Enzo Bruni while in town with our family of five, and we were blown away by the experience! The atmosphere was warm and inviting, perfect for a relaxing family dinner. The variety of pizza flavors was impressive, offering something for everyone—from classic favorites to creative combinations that we hadn’t tried before. The staff was outstanding, going above and beyond to make sure we were well taken care of. On top of that, the prices were fantastic, especially for the quality of food and service we received. If you’re looking for delicious pizza and a welcoming vibe, this place is a must-visit! Also, don’t forget the desserts!

Nestled in the quiet Park Avenue in Weehawken, this restaurant offers an elegant environment. The decor is matched by the attentive service. Our order of fried Calamari arrived within a few minutes and was delicious. The brick oven excellent was very good, as it reminded me of Brooklyn style. The only suggestion would be to cut the pie into 8 for easier serving, instead of 4. Overall, this was a pleasant experience.

This is a small pizza place located in West New York - we've just found it by chance and decided to go there for dinner. What a lovely surprise! The pizza is simply amazing. Lots of options and so hard to pick one. Size is decent, enough for 2 people. And it is simply delicious. Ok, it is a bit pricy, but it's another level. We'll go there again to try the pasta.

Such an amazing place. Everything we ordered was absolutely delicious. Drove an hour to try this restaurant and it was worth the trip. Chef was incredible and his passion for his food and presentation were incredible. We will definitely be back. Don’t miss a chance to eat here.

The BEST authentic Italian Pizza in NJ! amazing pizza, every detail, the dough, ingredients and perfect cooking. I had to eat every bite of the pizza because it was sooooo good! highly recommend, 10/10, no notes!

Visited after watching a reel on IG. By far, the closest thing to real Italian food. Went on Saturday, around 4. Didn't wait much to be seated. Staff was friendly & welcoming. I bought a Pizza, carbonara, cappuccino, and calamari/shrimp appetizer. It was all delicious and the closest to the food I enjoyed in Italia. BTW: pizza was so good, I bought a pie to go hot my fiance, who also was impressed! I'll be returning with my family, soon and I'd recommend this place to anyone. They lost 1 star because the music from the radio was too high and honestly, it sucked..lol If they changed that to some actual good music, it would be perfect 10.

Enzo Bruni is a hidden gem!!!!! Just moved into the neighborhood down the street and stumbled in after an evening walk. The staff is welcoming and the food is out of this world. The lasagna is incredible and the appetizers are so flavorful. I grew up in north Jersey eating Italian food, so I would like to think I know my stuff. This place is stand out, can’t wait to bring all of my friends and family. Also- I hear they have a piano player on Friday nights and there is a great liquor store next door (they’re byob)

Wow, chef did an amazing job. We coursed it as rice balls, pizza, pasta, then dessert. I was super impressed by the Italian authenticity having just vacationed in Italy this past summer. Somehow the pasta was even better than the pizza, cooked to al dente perfection. I cannot wait to go back. BYOB & amazing!

There are countless outstanding restaurants in the world, yet very few truly suit one's personal taste. We have visited many countries, including Italy, but only this place makes me want to return again and again. Whether it was yesterday's pizza or tonight's pasta, the dough was perfectly fermented, the pasta had an ideal al dente texture, and the sauce was seasoned with unparalleled balance. Please convey my gratitude to the chef.

Delicious food, romantic ambience, great place for a date, definitely gourmet dining, other reviews say it's expensive for the area but other establishments in the district aren't as 'gourmet' as this. We were the only customers at the time on a Friday night, suspect locals spend their dining dollars elsewhere. Charming staff, food wasn't quite hot enough in the middle.

Tiny portions for the price I paid for delivery. Food was not hot upon arrival, not even lukewarm, bordering on cold. Taste is okay.

I'm very disappointed with Enzo Bruni WNY and not exactly because of the food. My partner and I dined here last week and had such a pleasant experience that we were sure that we would come back. We shared the "Mike Corleone" Panuozzo (sandwich, $19) and 'La Bruni' Pizze (personal pizza, $23), and both were delicious. Being a BYOB establishment, we also brought our own bottle of wine. The total tab for these two items, plus taxes and tip, came to be $54.82. It's true what others said about EB prices, that they were a bit high for the area but, it's fair to say also that, based on our experience, the two items we tried were not "the run of the mill" pizza and sandwich you find everywhere. Tonight (Thursday, Sept. 21, 2023) we decided to go back to Enzo Bruni for the second time and enjoy their food. We ordered to share the same sandwich we had ordered the first time (Mike Corleone, $19), Tagliatelle alla Bolognese ($22) and Pollo alla Parmigiana ($22). We brought a bottle of Coppola Claret to enjoy with the food. The total tab this time was EIGHTY EIGHT DOLLARS AND FIFTY THREE CENTS! To our surprise, we noticed that the waiter had added what appeared to be a bo gus $8 charge for "Service Bar". When we questioned it, he said that the charge was for our own bottle of wine, that he was told to do so by the wife of the owner of the restaurant whom, by the way, had been our server on the previous visit and didn't charge anything for bringing our own bottle of wine. We were in disbelief and, yes!, quite annoyed too. In all the years we've been dining out at BYOB restaurants we have never been charged for bringing our own bottle of wine. Sorry but, we find this practice to be quest ion able (see below) and, for that reason, we don't think that we would come back to Enzo Bruni again. Good luck! ***New Jersey restaurants may advertise that they are BYOB, provided the municipality in which the restaurant is located permits BYOB.
