   The location is beautiful. It’s very loud inside. Food is average. I would recommend going for a drink and the chips and salsa.

   I recently had the pleasure of dining at El Encanto, and it was an absolutely unforgettable experience! The spacious and inviting ambiance made it perfect for both casual gatherings and events, and the service was nothing short of superb. Our waitress was incredibly attentive, and the entire staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcomed and cared for. The food was exceptional, especially the Desherbada Benedict, which was truly to die for—every bite was bursting with flavor and perfectly executed. To top it all off, the desserts were incredible, beautifully crafted, and the perfect way to end the meal. With its outstanding food, impeccable service, and amazing atmosphere, I can’t wait to return to this gem of a restaurant!

   Seems like a typical Kirkland restaurant - expensive, small portion, but a good view. We each had two tacos and a drink - dinner was $130. The taco meats were delicious, and the guacamole was excellent. The rice is bland/plain and the beans are good, but I think you could eat the serving in one or two forks. Just not worth the price. For high end Mexican food, I’d pick Adrian’s in Bellevue.

   Carne asada was a little tough, and $9 for a beer was a little too much.

   We had a good experience. Food was good - we had Tacos Fritos, Caesar Salad, short rib tacos, smoked mushroom tacos, dobladas, churros, and tres leches cake. We also had two cocktails - Valentino and Flamingo Fizz. Everything was seasoned well and tasted amazing. The atmosphere is really cool. And the service was great. Would recommend.

   It was a great hidden gem with views of the water. The food was very flavorful and the ambiance was unique. Will come back again

    An unusual shambles of service this evening. The appetizers and hot food entrees were all bought out to us at the same time. There was no room on our small table for two, we ended up eating the warm entree cold. Smaller than usual portion of beans on the plate with our tacos they did bring another small portion to accommodate. Very rushed service, aftee all our food had been placed on the table at the same time a few minutes later our waiter asked us if we wanted our bill - we didn’t, I suspect another blip and communication mishap.
