Enzian Theater

Looks like I originally reviewed Enzian about eight years ago. I've been coming several times a years since then, so I reckon it's time for a review update. Really, though, I don't have much to update. I still love it with the same enthusiasm that I did back then, if not more.

The food is about the same. That's my only gripe with the place. It's been the same exact menu for many, many years. I would like to see something different, but honestly, the food is so good, it's not necessary, though. They have the 2nd best chicken tenders in town, the best black bean burger I've had in town, and some of the best layered nachos I have ever seen.

So yea, food still banging.

The service is still top notch. They have added a new communication system that involved flipping up or down signs on your table to signal that you need assistance. This is greatly appreciated, so you can get a server's attention without making a loud ruckus in the middle of a movie.

As for the ambiance, this is something that I'm very glad hasn't changed much after all these years. The dark, intimate vibes they put on are so nice and calming. There isn't a bad seat in the house. And they actually just replaced their already comfortable chairs with even More comfortable chairs. I could sit there all day long.

And sometimes, I do. One habit I've picked up is attending the Florida Film Festival with the Film Lover pass, so I can watch all movies possible when I'm not at work. I love the FFF. Don't get me wrong, I'm down for a good Mission Impossible movie with explosions and copious violence, but I also hunger for foreign films, short films, documentaries, and the FFF satisfies that hunger over a week-long bender that is full of those aforementioned chicken tenders.

So overall, if you just happen to be reading this, and have never been to Enzian, you have to check it out. The food is top notch, the movies are top notch, and you will come back, repeatedly.
