Ennio's Pasta House

Terrible resturant

What a terrible place. I paid 90$ for my meal with my husband and I last night, and I came home with leftovers, turns out they were not mine but a strangers meal from the restaurant. I called to inquire about it and the owner Andrea was so rude and I explained her the situation beside one of my coworkers and she asked me why I was being so short. I replied what! I'm not even being short I'm telling you what happened" then she continued to argue didn't comp my meal & said that I was the rude one

very enjoyable Th...

very enjoyable The food and service was great!

Went for MIL's Bday and she is tough to impress and yet she was. She often doesn't finish her meal and ate the whole lugini and even ordered cheesecake as well! Husband had pizza and hurt himself eating it all (to be fair he also had 3 pieces of bread). My kids both had children's pizza which was a great price ($7 for pizza and drink and ice cream!). I had gnoccis and it was wonderful! I also had the most decadent chocolate cake afterwards that I didn't mind sharing with the kids as it was too much (and I am not a light eater). So rich I wish I had ordered milk!

We took my girlfriend out for a Saturday dinner to the Waterloo location. A really nice famliy style Italian restaurant. The food was very good.

Decreasing in Quality

When I first came to Ennio's in my first-second year of university, it was amazing. Service fast, food fresh, and presented in a timely manner - not too fast and not too slow. However, since going back a few times in the past year, the service and food have seemed to take a turn for the worst. Sometimes I even feel like I am getting the 'student deal'. My pasta, which I have the same of every time I'm there, seems watered down and chicken not so cooked. Last time I was there the entree came out very quickly after the salad and before the bread. It was overwhelming to have our table full of everything. The atmosphere has remained the same over the years: very loud. If you're looking for a quiet Italian place, this is not it. This is definitely geared toward families. (It's a student town, so what can you expect!)
