ristorante enrico

this establishment is fabulous. the perfect setting next to a beautiful beach. be sure to dress warmly just in case.

arrive early to avoid disappointment. they can get very busy.

our food was really tasty and well prepared. portion sizes are very generous from our point of view.italianwine at very reasonable prices.

surely worth a visit.... or two....☺️

wow! loved this restaurant. it is perched on the rocks above keuromstrand beach just north of plett. a true italiano trattoria with ocean views and excellent service. all the traditionalitalianfavourites you would expect plus some indulgent surprises. the bomba is a unique floating focaccia, the prawns are to die for, pastas are out of this world, so many trulyitalianveal options to choose from and the desserts are traditionallyitalianwith a modern twist. bellissima💋

i love the vibe of this restaurant and it's beautiful location right next to the keurbooms beach. lovely spread of authenticitalianfood, and well made! my pizza was divine and my partners fish of the day was of the best we've tasted! we come here every year while on holiday and will continue to do so for a long time to come !

the only way you could get closer to the sea is if you physically went and dove into it. a lovely venue to enjoy sundowners and perhaps share a pizza with a group of friends for an appetizer, but unfortunately i felt the food wasn't that great. i was expecting genuineitalianfood, but i got a typical south african version of pizza and pasta.

i'll get straight to it - the food wasn't that bad, but it wasn't good either. it's a very "local is lekker" kind of place and i suppose you get a good idea of the local vibe if you dine here. my better half had the porca pizza with avo and i had the seafood linguine. the pizza was good and had generous toppings. my pasta was also quite a generous portion (i couldn't finish it), but the sauce was very watery, so i ended up having to spoon it over my pasta to give it some taste.

i definitely recommend you try their desserts, especially the sorbets - very refreshing, especially on a hot summer's evening. i had the tiramisu, which is also quite a big portion and tasty, but i've had better.

overall, a nice evening, but not something to cry home about. we enjoyed the relaxed vibe with live music playing in the background, the waves crashing on the rocks beneath us. nice venue, but don't expect too much from the food.

love this place by the sea ! awesomeitalianfood while on holiday. both their pizza and pasta are good, we really enjoyed the food and the view !

great atmosphere, on the beach! really friendly and helpful servers. the food is great. out of season so the service quick. they have a good wine list, with lambrusco and prosecco on the list. i had a cocktail, mojito was brilliant, original made from scratch! they don't have a cocktail menu, but the barman will mix what you need. the pizzas look divine. i had the ravioli, was very tasty. we shared a dessert of tiramisu, so light and fresh, a must if you have space left! a lovely, windy, cool night out in a warm cozy interior, spoilt with anitalianinspired menu.

we loved enrico's so much that we ate there on 2 out of 3 nights in plett. the menu was great, as was the service, wine and delicious food.

the menu isitalianwith a great choice of pasta, pizza and many other dishes. they were happy to change one of the dishes to cater for my fussy daughter.

the view over the ocean is outstanding as was the ambiance in the restaurant.

we were in the area for 6 days and managed to visit 3 times! it was gooditalianfood with fresh ingredients and lotsa love. we tried oysters, mussels, line fish, pasta and pizzas and all came up trumps. the mussels is done theitalianway, white wine, parsley and garlic (no cream) which really highlights the flavour. the meat ravioli and penne bolognese all great and the line fish fresh and simply grilled. the zonin prosecco was perfect to accompany the meal and my daughter reports that she enjoyed the tiramisu

nobody visits plet without paying enrico's a visit. a large terrace overlooking the beach and friendly waiters. the menu with options for everyone.italianfood excellent, that goes without saying. plenty pizza and pasta options. paired with a draft beer or a glass of wine, you can sit here for hours and eat and drink while enjoying the sunset. prices very reasonable, food very good.

enricos is one of my favourite spots in plett. you have to make an effort to get a table outside on a warm day to watch the sunset as the view is spectacular. this can be very tricky over season and you can end up standing in the queue to be seated for over an hour.

the food is great and fresh. a bomba for a starter is a must try. the staff are super friendly and efficient for a place that gets so busy. if you're lucky enough you might even spot the owner in hisitalianbirthday suite apron!

not only is the location of this authenticitalianrestaurant beautiful, but the food is delicious especially their special 'enrico special' being a rump, and one must have a 'bomba' garlic pizza bread. one of the best spots to go in the garden route.

great location right on the beach. unfortunately we were there when it was raining so couldn't enjoy the outside veranda. inside cosy and warm with a fireplace. great menu with some unusual (but tasty) options i have not seen before in anitalianrestaurant. a lot of unique and personal touches to the dishes which makes for an interesting and delicious meal. we had the oysters and whole baked fish. both incredibly fresh and tasty. the service from the staff was fantastic. attentive and readily available.

bestitalianrestaurant in the garden route. wonderful friendly staff and excellent food with great views. best place to go on the weekend to have a long relaxing lunch.

ristorante enrico was a great dining experience that had everything a star costal restaurant should - excellent service from well-trained enthusiastic staff, delicious, interestingitalianfood and a fun atmosphere overlooking the indian ocean from an outdoor deck with live music from a local busker. having the flamboyantitalianrestaurant owner himself interacting with diners made for an amusing as well as authentic dining experience. being right on the beach, a leisurely walk after dinner was well worth it. even through the restaurant was a bit of a drive from knysna, it was well worth the drive there and back. enjoy a glass of their fine local wines and make sure that you're early for dinner else you can expect to wait for the hotly contested tables.

it's a very good restaurant with a magnificent view. i don't know of a betteritalianrestaurant in the area. it is well run with excellent service and a nice ambience.
it also has a lovely outside area even if a bit exposed but perfect on a still day.
it serves the normalitalianfare.
