The Final Plate: Celebrating Enzo’s Ristorante’s Journey

After working his magic in the kitchen for four decades, Enzo Fazzari is preparing to hang up his apron.

As the curtains draw close on Enzo's Ristorante, we bid farewell to a 25-year journey of gastronomic delight that has been a pillar of Adelaide's Italian food scene. Serving the final dishes on May 3, 2024, Enzo’s Ristorante has been a loved food destination serving many meals to the most discerning foodies for over 25 years, celebrated by dignitaries, sports figures, families, and friends.

Recognized with numerous awards including the prestigious Ospitalita Italiana accreditation, Enzo’s Ristorante has stood as a beacon for authentic Italian cuisine. With gratitude for the past and anticipation for the future, Enzo reflects on the unforgettable experiences shared with patrons and staff alike.

Please note, Enzo’s Ristorante is now permanently closed, and no bookings are available at this time.

New Culinary Chapters

As we close one chapter, the Fazzari family is excited to embrace new beginnings. Enzo and his wife Teresa, along with their family, are eagerly anticipating the next phase of their lives, exploring new culinary and personal ventures. As they take time to unwind and enjoy some personal space, their children are stepping up to continue the culinary legacy.
