What People Are Saying About Encanto Restaurant
The Editor

Citysearch
In Short – Northwest industrial architecture and southwestern warmth blend well in this high-ceilinged restaurant, which features an open kitchen and large bar area. Bold green and mustard walls are sparsely decorated with glowing devotional candles, kachina dolls and iconic art. NoPo neighbors feast on heaping plates of slow-cooked sofrito lamb, fried sopapillas stuffed with chunks of red-chili beef and spicy enchiladas topped with fried eggs. The signature dessert is a sweet, milk-soaked tres leches cake.

Encanto closed in December 2008. Cafe Cubano has now opened in the former Encanto space. Cafe Cubano doesn't seem to have its own listing yet in Citysearch.
