Caffè Enzo

"Only open a few weeks, Cafe Enzo is a very cozy cafe located on a street adjacent to the plaza square. The coffee and food there are worthy of the 5 star rating. I had a regular Italian dark roast Latte. I paired that with their Italian pistachio orange cake. Both were great. The espresso is personally roasted and hand pressed by the proprietor, giving it a smooth, rich, full bodied flavor. Pastries are made fresh daily. The Orange cake is a family recipe, not too sweet, moist, with good flavor, topped with crunchy pistachios. Cafe Enzo is operated by a young husband and wife team who dress in period attire and make all the food items. The menu is limited, but everything is handmade and served with pleasure. The cafe is small with limited seating, however the atmosphere is very authentic reflecting a European style accompanied by light jazz music. Although pricier than most, the flavor, atmosphere and personal attention make it worth it. Note: There is no restroom due to historic building restrictions."

"We come in a few times a month. It’s our little weekend coffee date spot. I’ve recommended to all of our friends and acquaintances and everyone who has tried it has also loved it! The coffee is an extremely great quality and I love that all of the flavors are made in-house and not just store bought bottles. The kougin amann is so good! Especially when they have it with the vanilla pastry cream! And they do a lot of fun specials seasonally. Go check it out!!"

"My husband and I had the most delightful Sunday morning at Caffè Enzo. The atmosphere is elevated, yet approachable. The owner is an absolute delight with a solid vision for what he wants the experience to be, and how he wants the coffee and food to taste. The coffee was amazing. They hand press their espresso, reducing the acidity greatly. We enjoyed the mocha and orange latte’s, and two hand made pastries. Multiple times my husband expressed that this was the best coffee he’s ever had in his life. 10/10. Give yourself a beautiful experience and visit Caffè Enzo!"

"This place is gorgeous, delightful and delicious 😋 the atmosphere is relaxing and really feels like you stepped into Italy in a gourmet coffee shop. They are Albuquerques only gourmet espresso bar and they pull all their drinks by hand without electricity. It’s amazing and well worth the trip. We will definitely be back. I especially appreciate that the prices are so well set considering the beautiful imported ingredients and hand made food. Come check this place out! You’ll be glad you did 😊"

"Excellent coffee in a relaxed and sophisticated environment. The pastry was delicious and not too sweet. We are looking forward to trying the food and more coffees. The owner is passionate about his business and being authentic to his Italian roots. The flavored coffee is from real the essence of real ingredients and not flavored syrups. The lattes were smooth presented well. We will make this a frequent stop when we are in Old Town."
