We had eaten at Castle Hills Tu Asador several times, and were looking forward to a great meal at Encino. They didn’t disappoint! In fact, they exceeded our expectations in almost every way. We chose rib eye medium rare sliced on the board. It was delicious and cooked exactly as requested. We also chose potatoes, and roasted veggies as sides. Next visit we will order 2 sides of veggies. We also chose to order desserts (unusual for us) — which complemented our dining experience perfectly. Our server, Brian, was attentively helpful. He even honored my request for a Veterans discount! The only ding I would give was the excessive noise level, but that was understandable given the fact that there were several large dining parties, and live music. On a final positive note, all of the servers moved about the room quickly, as if they were on a mission. They were, and succeeded admirably. We will be back! Excellent!

The food quality was excellent, the only reason I rated it lower on certain things was because it requires a card on file for a reservation, but when we arrive there, it was clear we didn’t need one. They require you to put a card on file and if it’s a no-show, you will be charged $25 per person for that reservation to that card. Maybe it was a slow day, or we just went early: Friday at 5:30 PM, but I don’t think it needed all that. Otherwise, great customer service.

It was our first time visiting the restaurant and are adding this to our go to restaurant list. The food was amazing, authentic and delicious. Ruben, our waiter was excellent. He made great recommendations on food and cocktails. This would be a good place to go even if you were just having cocktails and appetizers. Deserts were awesome too. It’s good to know there is a place to have a great evening out without having to go downtown.

We were a party of 13 and I very specifically asked two of the wait staff to hand me the check and they did NOT do so. Very noisy atmosphere even after I asked the waiters to kindly turn it down. The steaks were undercooked and the meat was extremely chewy. Very disappointing

The music was a little loud at times. And I was given the wrong plate that cost more than the plate I ordered and I was charged for it at the regular cost of the more expensive plate even though it was not my mistake.

Made a reservation. When we sat down our server was rude to us, they have complimentary chips and when we asked for salsa the server said "can't you wait until I finish pouring the water" very unprofessional. Kept avoiding us and when we ordered our drinks kept telling us it wasn't on the menu even though it was or that a blender was broken. It was really weird we ended up leaving. I never leave bad reviews because I've worked as a server but this was probably the worst service I've ever encountered.
