We had a birthday dinner here and it was a wonderful evening. The food was very good, well presented and the service was great. Definitely not cheap but I think the overall dining experience was above average. We'll be back.
I found Encanto here on Yelp and we decided to give a try for lunch. Our lunch was fantastic and the service was incredible. While having lunch we watched a near by table being serviced cocktails in fashion! So I decided to make a reservation for when my friends visited and we had a delicious meal.
At dinner we ordered a bunch of small plates and all were delicious. The cocktails however stole the show! I highly recommend the Mexican Old Fashion! It is amazing.
We also got to meet the manager and the staff understands service and make you feel so welcome and appreciated!
Can’t wait to try their Sunday brunch.
First, I would like to say they just recently opened so keep that in mind when coming here. The service was pretty good. The waiters were super nice but do need to learn the menus a bit more. They didn't seem very knowledgeable on some things they probably should. Also, the water glasses were so small that we had to ask for water 5 times. The problem being, that at no time during the dinner did we ever get asked us if we wanted a refill. Mind you, there was only 3 other tables there so that should've been problem. I did have a problem with my pork meal but it was fixed in a timely manner and it was perfect when I received it. We also ordered the ceviche trio, which we loved. My friend didn't care for the ketchup one but to me it tasted like a big mac lol! So, that was ok with me. Also, the food however does need a bit more salt and I don't like salt so thats saying alot. In regards to the drinks, we didnt care for the ones we ordered. They were off menu so maybe next time we will try their signature drinks to see if they are better. The atmosphere was fun and had a nightclub kind of vibe. They have a dining side and it looks like a bar/dancing side. I would definitely say Instagram ready! Overall, I would say they have a few things to improve on but again they just opened. I'm definitely gonna come back and try it again because the food was muy bueno. Last note, I think you should put a door on the kitchen because it ruins the vibe.
Such a stylish restaurant/bar in an inconspicuous old strip mall. The mood lighting inside is great for date night and the LED lit bar section is great for hanging out with friends. They also have lots of small plates to choose from. Our party opted for the sharabled and the fried calamari with artichoke and shrimp was a bomb. The beef slider was well made as well. The seafood taco trio and sticky pork belly sliders were the ones I would skip.
New hidden Gem in San Jose.
The food is just perfect, very well presented and delicious. 1000% recommend the cocktails. The ambience and decor is very nice. The staff is very welcoming.
I simply cannot wait to be back
