| - Ok...I understand the Tapas trend...really, I do. But honestly it is getting old. If I wanted to share what I want to eat with somebody else I will but in all reality I just want to sit down and eat good food.
My wife's friends have been raving about Eno Vino for a long time and it was time for us to try this place everyone raves about. I will be the first to say, the food was VERY GOOD!
Myself, my wife, and a couple of others went to Eno Vino this past weekend and immediately upon arrival I knew this place had fell in the rating points when I could not find a parking stall. I had dropped my dining party off at the door as a good boy should do and then drove around the tiny parking lot that was amassed with cars with no open spot for me. Hell, I even found a spot and some jerkoff swung into the spot I was clearly waiting for (blinker on and all). So, 15 minutes later a spot finally opened up and boom...time to drink.
We were seated immediately and Eno Vino has a nice look. it is decorated well and was very inviting. Now, I just want a drink. Waiter....waiter...hey, where is the waiter? Unfortunately the waiter did not come for our drink orders at least 10 minutes (if not longer) after we were seated. This was disappointing especially after the labyrinth of cars I had just maneuvered through (not to harp on parking but, people who park in places that are not stalls should die). Well, he finally came and although I do love wine I was not in the mood. Crown Royal for me tonight. After the waiter finally arrived the service was good for the rest of the night.
My meal was very delicious. To start the Bruschetta was both amazing and eh. Depends on what one you had. For example, the Fresh Mozzarella was very good. The Brie one however was not.
After the Bruschetta the meals arrived and i ordered MY OWN meal not to be shared as that is how I roll. I want what I want and it is mine...sorry plate pickers and appetizer hogs. I had an order of the Day Boat Scallops that were delicious. I found it odd that it came with French Toast but it worked. Along with that, because I am a pig, I tried the Skirt Steak (kinda like make your own tacos) and while everything was very very good I feel it could have used something more like sauce or something. But it was very good.
So, overall Eno Vino was Ok. I did not hate the place and did not love it either. Would I go back there for dinner, probably not but I would go sit at the bar while munching a few things and sipping some wine as long as I can find a parking spot.
