Our Bloggers Love the Enoteca

Cindy Zhou from Chubby’s New York Food Diary has good things to say about Enoteca Maria.

I know what your thinking, all the way to Staten Island for food? Totally understand, I never thought I would say this either, but I truly found this gem a ferry ride away. People who are lucky enough to have a Nonna (Italian for grandma) always brag about how great their meal was. I’ve always been jealous, and tried to invite myself to such dinners, unsuccessfully. But hey, their nonnas got nothing on me anymore, I found 6 nonnas who will cook for me any night of the week at Enoteca Maria…beat that! Love owner Joe’s concept of having a different nonna cook traditional local dishes from family recipes each night. Every nonna is from a different region in Italy and everything is made fresh from scratch.
