Enzo’s Crookston opened its doors this weekend. It is the nicest looking chippy I have seen! It is on the site that was previously ‘Marios’ which had a bit of a slow demise. This was largely due to changing owners and, in my opinion, a decline in quality. So it was welcome to see new owners putting a fair bit of capital into it (judging from the exterior).
Service
The service was good. You place your order and get a receipt with an order number to listen out for when it’s ready. I thought this was a nice touch. I have been in some chippys where you can feel like you have been forgotten about or even worse asked ‘What was your order again?’ It took roughly 10 minutes until the pizza was ready.
Style
The style of pizza is interesting. On their marketing material and website, they claim that they prove the dough for 24 hours, and use a tried and tested family recipe. It has a super thin base but the crusts are big and crispy. It’s definitely not the standard chippy style pizza. It is a light pizza – when carrying the box, it almost feels empty!
Order
We went with a 16” margheritta pizza which came in at £9.25. This is roughly in line with what most places in the local area charge. The closest chippy to Enzo’s, Criterion on Paisley Road West, charge a similar price for the same size of pizza, but you get a free bag of chips thrown in as well.
Taste
The pizza was good and I would definitely have it again. You can tell it’s a quality pizza. As mentioned above, it is a light pizza. A 16” inch pizza would normally leave us struggling on the final slices but in this case, we finished it no bother. The crusts were right up my alley, but we did end up using a dip as they were a bit dry. A mayo dip would have been a nice offering.
Enzos Crookston looks like a great addition to the area and provide a good pizza.
