Enjoyed it

by MHJ at Citysearch

I came here last weekend with my family and it was a surprise hit. At first I was worried the place might be too "stuck up" but once we got there the atmosphere was fun and laid-back. Tons of menu choices, even my picky kids didn't order off the kids' menu for once, and no pressure to spend lots of money. The food was wonderful with lots of variety and our server was friendly. I will be coming back for another visit.

Pretty good.

I really liked the salad. It was the fried chicken salad, but I got grilled chicken. IT was kind of chopped and already mixed well, so I got lots of stuff in each bite.

My hubby got a blue cheese wedge and added a filet, which came out to around $18. His steak was DELICIOUS. I think that his salad had a lot of calamata olives, which I think got on the steak too! YUMMMMMM...

Downfalls:

The only thing either of us wanted on the menu was a salad. Usually, this is not the case....kind of limited selection.

• Pros: Add a filet to your salad
• Cons: Slow service, hard to decide what to get

Perfect place for a night out

by Jenni P at Citysearch

My boyfriend and I went here last Wednesday and had a great time. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a fun night out. Encore has a cool atmosphere with colorful artwork, fast and friendly service, and great food that isn't too expensive.

I had the pimento pasta and my boyfriend had the rib eye. They were both delicious and we look forward to coming back again and trying more items on the menu!

Not a great pic for lunch

by NJ2NC at Citysearch

I had lunch here yesterday and was not thrilled. Call me cheap, but i have a hard time paying $14 for a chef salad at lunchtime. I ended up choosing the chicken and brie salad for $11 and got only that - chicken, brie, and lettuce. And the cheese was melted and cold and honestly - a little weird. The service was great and i've been here on a weekend evening where you can sit outside and enjoy the music. So i believe that that warrants the prices. But for lunch I was just not impressed.

• Pros: Live music in summer, patio seating
• Cons: pricey lunch menu
