   Encina is always one of our favorites for dinner and for brunch. This weekend they made a special brunch even more special. The food was out of this world (that french toast with fresh peaches) and the favorites of biscuits and gravy were a hit for our special family meal. Highly recommended. Would go for any meal anytime.

   Still dreaming of the burratta and Texas peach salad. The blue corn hotcakes were (as everyone who is in the know is aware) are FABULOUS! Matt and Corey, and your staff; you continue to knock it out of the park. Thanks for another wonderful meal.

   Had brunch with my mother and it was a wonderful experience. It is a bit loud on the patio for our little 2 person party but all was well.

    I found Encina from an Instagram page and knew I had to add it to our anniversary weekend plans. Encina was perfect! We made reservations to ensure I spot. We were promptly greeted and seated. Our serve was kind and patient as this was our first visit. We enjoyed everything and could not finish the meal. We were surprised by the large portion sizes. We ordered the pork belly grits, migas with chorizo, and the pancakes. The pancakes were our favorites and has set the standard for all other pancakes! I look forward to coming back to try their dinner menu!

    Encina food is AMAZING. We had the cheese platter, the comeback creek tomato salad (to.die.for!!!), my husband had the off-the-menu beef tenderloin and I had the duck confit. Everything was so so good. We were celebrating our anniversary and they brought us complimentary champagne! I also had the flower patch cocktail which was so yummy. The server was kind and efficient, didn’t rush us at all. The restaurant has a modern vibe - very much dress it up or down. It was quiet quiet when we arrived at 6:30, but the volume picked up quite a bit as it got busier.

    Great,quaint restaurant with amazing food! This was our first visit and everything was great! From being greeted at the door to the ambiance and service. I had the blue corn pancakes and words cannot describe how delicious they were! My husband had the brunch burger and it blew him away! Although this was our first visit, it will not be the last.

    My birthday brunch was handled professionally, from the initial reservation to adding more people at the last minute to our waiter, Jeremy. Service was a little slow, but Jeremy was attentive for the most part. Thank you, Encina, for good food and vibes.

    I personally enjoyed my spice pork belly dish for Sunday brunch. Wish the menu was a little bit bigger and had side options for bread or a single pancakes to go with the savory dish other wise despise it being little cramped with the table next to us I enjoyed the experience and will be back to try other dishes

    Encina consistently delights. The food is unique and fantastic quality, and is actually worth what you pay for it (unlike some other high-priced options in the area). The ambiance never disappoints. Can't wait until our next visit!

    Simply the best brunch in Dallas. We live a 20 minute drive away and make the trip 1 - 2 times per month. Pancakes, pork belly and both salads currently on the menu are off the charts.

    This is the kinda of place you can take your SO, family or out of town friends for a casual evening or a fancy night out. We went Saturday night and loved it so much we went back for Sunday brunch (which was mind blowing). Can’t say enough about this place
