The food and drinks were delicious!
Every bite is impeccable, elevated comfort. Service is unmatched; the absolute definition of hospitality. Everything here from the wine list to the cocktails to the lighting to the duck confit (an important aside - when this gem makes duck, lamb, or gnocchi, GET THOSE DISHES) is beautifully polished without pretension. We are so lucky to have Encina in Oak Cliff 💖
Great service and food...
