Encina offers a pleasant dining experience with excellent service, though there have been mixed reviews about some staff. The restaurant is known for its value-packed happy hour cocktails and a varied menu. Standout dishes include the flavorful cornbread, pierogis, blue corn pancakes, and brunch burger. The pancakes and French toast bread pudding are especially praised, with guests noting the outstanding quality of these dishes. The fried catfish remains a consistent favorite among regular customers. The Dallas-based eatery provides ample parking and a cozy atmosphere, making it an ideal spot for various occasions. It is also recognized as a local neighborhood gem that cares about quality and consistency, with family-friendly options that kids enjoy, such as burgers and flatbread. The Garden Gimlet is highlighted as a refreshing brunch drink, further enhancing the experience. Recent visitors have praised the food, cocktails, and impeccable service, often mentioning how delicious and hot the dishes are, especially during brunch. Some guests have noted the presence of dogs indoors, which they found unsanitary and problematic for allergies, but overall, the atmosphere remains inviting and suitable for different occasions.
