Now Accepting Reservations For July 9th and beyond,
The crew from Northside Bistro are now going to provide some amazing Italian cuisine, Top notch Steaks, and delightful seafood. Expect to see some of the great cooks and friendly staff you expect at Northside along with some great new team members we are excited to introduce to the area.
Chef John and his team are excited to bring you some takes on classic Italian cuisine along with some expected twists and turns to keep things current and we will always hunt for the highest quality ingredients we can find. Service promises to be warm and inviting never taking our focus off the details that matter while still keeping it fun and light hearted.
The decor here at Encore is a polished but comfy, the environment will create great energy and a sense of community but still provide some romantic corners for a Romantic evening with loved ones.
Carol and John are so excited to bring their second offering to the North Raleigh area!

    the service was top notch, friendly and efficient. tables were spaced not too close, so noise did not interfere with your table conversations. Food was terrific with a nice variety. Entrees were not overwhelming large, which was perfect. drinks and wine choices were varied and interesting.

    We love Northside Bistro so we were excited to try Encore and it didn’t disappoint. The service and food were exceptional. Definitely a hidden gem and closer to our home. I think we found our new date night spot.
