Marco Polo Ristorante, the red-sauce standard-bearer in Carroll Gardens, last month swapped its takeout operation for a new wine bar called Enoteca on Court. The space retains its gargantuan wood-burning oven and sized its international wine list to match. There’s charcuterie and cheese plates, sharable small entrées from the oven, and pizza and panini. With a traditional menu in a modern setting, Enoteca on Court may be the kind of restaurant that brings the neighborhood’s old and new residents together. The menu and wine-flight list are below, as well as a visual tour via slideshow.
