They know what they are doing with the food. Very good, authentic Italian. That’s why you might go. The atmosphere is nothing at all and the service is fine. People are nice and relaxed.

Food: Good but not great. Was expecting more given we’ve tried to ‘walk in’ several times only to find out that reservations were needed…we got lucky this time. Had the Arancini (golden fried croquettes and the Asapragi con burrata (Asparagus with burrata) for apps…both were yum, but ask for bread with the burrata. I had the Tagliatelle al ragu’, which really didn’t pack the flavor that I was expecting. Wife ordered the Orecchiette con le cime di rapa, again…not a meal with WoW. Both were OK/good, but not great. The Pacific swordfish was also ordered at our table, and that was given very positive reviews (thin cut of fish, not your typical thick steak). Atmosphere: Good place for conversation, the meal was quite long (over 2 hours)…the waiter was very friendly and made suggestions as requested, but was in no hurry. That part of the meal does feel a bit authentic Italian. Decent wine list with many Italian options.

Absolutely delicious. I had the special which was beet and ricotta ravioli in brown butter sage. Not complicated, but prepared with excellent ingredients. Pasta al dente, as it should be. My partner had the Tagliatelle al ragu and I didn’t even get a bite because he annihilated it, that good!

This is a perfect neighborhood Italian restaurant. The food is excellent, service is friendly and attentive, and the space is welcoming and unpretentious. I had the gnocchi, which was cooked perfectly and the sauce was outstanding. For dessert we shared the panna cotta with figs that was out of this world.

Fabulous place from start to finish. Amazing wine list and dishes to go with it. Fabiano was the superb server holding down the whole restaurant by himself. Quality and great service takes time. The asparagus burrata was delicious. The pasta ragu to die for. We finished off with the super moist almond torte. This gem is worth driving to from SF.

I’m really excited to try this restaurant. The appetizer was ok but the pasta is taste like boiling broccoli I’m so disappointed.

I really wanted to love Enoteca Molinari. My wife and I dined there with our 12 year old recently and sadly it wasn’t what I’d hoped.

This is my go-to restaurant. I’ve eaten here dozens of times over the years, and I have never had anything but stellar food, wine, and service. Enoteca has a smallish menu, preferring to deliver perfection. I’ve had everything they prepare, always excellent, but my favorite remains the gnocchi, which you have to spear with your fork as soon as the dish shows up, to keep them from floating into the sky and joining the clouds. Joe is always ready to help you select the perfect wine. I’ve been introduced to many cherished new vintages. The wine and food prices are very reasonable. Don’t forget the desserts, a delightfully delicate way to end a gratifying evening. The atmosphere is warmly friendly. The entire staff is working together to give us a delicious and congenial evening. My always favorite.

Super nice people. Amazing wines, good food served in a simple way. If I had to eat at the same place for the rest of my life everyday I would probably go there.
