Encanto somehow just keeps getting better. The views alone are worth the drive, but they've really built up the patio area and it is gorgeous now. There's so much seating, so it feels open and relaxed even when it's busy. It's one of those places where you immediately want to grab your phone and take a few photos. The food is still just as delicious as I remember, and the service is unmatched. Everyone is attentive without hovering and you feel really taken care of. Honestly, it's worth stopping in even if you just go for a drink and soak in the scenery. Great cocktails, stunning backdrop, and such a good overall vibe. I'll definitely keep coming back. read more

I recently visited Encanto in Ensenada and unfortunately had a very disappointing experience. When the bill arrived, I noticed that one of my dishes was priced incorrectly. I politely pointed it out to our server, Daniel, expecting it to be corrected. Instead, he casually dismissed it and said, "It's only 100 pesos more," which I found unprofessional and disrespectful. It's not about the amount it's about accuracy and customer service. Because of this interaction, I decided to remove the $20 tip I had initially left. When I did, he took the receipt to his manager and claimed that I hadn't tipped at all. I explained the situation, but he responded with a smirk, which felt mocking and made the situation even more uncomfortable. Additionally, the service overall was slow. We asked for water multiple times before ordering, during the meal, and even after finishing and it still took a long time for it to arrive. Unfortunately, this experience left a very negative impression, despite the setting. I hope management takes this kind of behavior seriously and works on improving both service quality and professionalism. read more

We stopped by Encanto after having drinks and appetizers at Los Portales de Garcia, mainly just to check it out and get a feel for the place, and I'm glad we did... This restaurant also has amazing ocean views and is perfect for a romantic date night... They have tables on balconies overlooking the ocean, which I thought was really cute and adds to the overall ambiance... We only ordered drinks and sat at the bar since we mostly wanted to vibe, explore, and see what the place was about... Just a heads-up: the bar was cash only, and I'm pretty sure the entire restaurant doesn't take credit cards, so come prepared... The place was decorated for Christmas when we visited, and we walked around a bit to explore, it was really cute and nicely done... The bartender was friendly and welcoming, and our drinks came out quickly. It wasn't busy at all, but we did go on a Sunday morning, so we were seated and served pretty fast... I ordered a gin and tonic with cucumber, and it was good... Pricing was reasonable for the location and views. Compared to Los Portales de Garcia, Encanto has a more chill, relaxed vibe and isn't as popular, but it's still very charming. It's also pretty spacious, making it a nice option if you're coming with a larger group. Overall, a cute spot with great views, a romantic atmosphere, and a laid-back feel, definitely worth checking out if you're already in the area!!! read more

Had a chance to visit here and just like most say the views are AMAZING!! The atmosphere can b sexy and grown but also family friendly. The drinks were pretty good.. the service was not the best but it wasn't the worst, don't expect to get blown away lol.. the food was pretty decent, I got the encanto molcajete, and it was good but needed a lil more salt, the beans and rice were pretty decen. The shrimp cocktail was solid. The vibes are really the draw here in my opinion. I definitely am gonna go back and try the bacon wrapped shrimp cuz those looked amazing lol read more

This place was gorgeous. We came here with our family to just get out. I was a little disappointed as this place only does cash luckily they did accommodate card. The servers were very slow and not as attentive as I would like being that where we sat it wasn't quite busy at all. I felt as if they were distracted. The food was a little disappointing it was more a presentation than flavor or seasoning. The drinks were better than the food but again maybe it was what we ordered. The next time we come back I hope we get better service and the food will be better. read more

We were told "cash only"... They accept cards if you don't have cash. The girls at the hostess stand are adamant about requesting "cash only"...just say okay and talk to the waiter before ordering - cards should be permitted. (but still no Apple Pay). You do need some cash to tip the Encanto parking attendants. It's better to park in the Encanto parking lot. Avoid parking across the street ($10-$15) Drinks didn't disappoint, the food and entertainment tonight was great. Today's entertainment was a wonderfully talented singer @diegobzmx The red velvet cake was delicious!! If you are celebrating a birthday - be careful at the end of the song! All the birthday treats kept coming - a song, a shot , cake and a surprise!! They love a celebration here! read more

This was one of the most stunning restaurants I have ever been in! Stunning oven views all around, and everything about the interior of this place was BEAUTIFUL. We had amazing service as well. Where I was sitting was getting too bright. One of the servers saw me covering my eyes and promptly moved a whole umbrella for me without even having to ask! 10/10. Food was fresh and SO DELICIOUS. I cannot wait to come back! read more

Encanto was an amazing experience. The atmosphere was beautiful and energetic, with an old European village-style design that creates a warm, rustic charm. The architecture and lighting make it feel like you're walking through a historic town plaza. The food was exceptional and full of flavor. The only drawback was the service. Our server came to our table only twice once to take our order and once to drop off the check yet still expected a tip. Throughout the meal, I had to rely on other servers for tortillas and additional items, so I got up and tipped the two servers who actually assisted us. read more

Los Pórtales de García Review It's exactly what all those Instagram reels promised - vibes for days. We weren't even hungry when we stopped by (tragic, I know) so we just walked around, snapped some cute pics, and soaked up the scene. We wandered into Encanto for some shots of the water - so dreamy it made us feel like we were living in a rom-com montage. ‍ Definitely planning to come back for some lobster because this place is too cute not to eat your weight in mariscos. read more

Just wow. I was really blown away! First the atmosphere is everything. You feel like you are in encanto the movie or coco! Flores everywhere. Great views. Mariachi. Very grandiose! The cocktails are fuerte and tasty! The seafood is fresh and so much of it. Charola de mariscos serves "5 people" but I think it could serve 8 people! It did have 5 lobster halves. But has so much more! You will not finish this! If you do- I respect you. Service was great. We had multiple service members check in us! This is an INSTA worthy restaurant. It had a great moment take your picture with the mirror that faces the water! read more

I wanted to share my wonderful experience at Encanta restaurant. From the moment we arrived, it felt like a magical place. Although we had a 20-minute wait for our table of eight, we enjoyed taking photos and admiring the beautiful outdoor setup. Once we were seated outside, the service was impressively fast. We started with complimentary chips and salsa, which was a nice touch, and then our mix grills arrived - they were fantastic and certainly didn't disappoint! We were so satisfied that we even had enough leftovers to take four boxes home. Beyond the delicious food, the view was absolutely amazing. There were so many picturesque spots perfect for capturing the sunset. read more

I invited a friend to celebrate a birthday, the server too a long time to acknowledge, when I told him that we were celebrating a birthday he mentioned a "birthday package for $30 dollars" them I ordered a whole fried fish that was served without pico de gallo, when I asked the server to bring me some, he told that it was an extra charge. So they charge you for everything!! It is a beautiful restaurant but I will never hi back to this place. read more

I'm not saying the dis was bad, it was just strong with garlic. You need to check out Encanto restaurant. Oh, did I tell you the prices are really reasonable!!! read more

HORRIBLE! This place is extremely OVERHYPED! The view is a 10/10! But the service is Suuuuper SLOW! You're lucky if the food comes out lukewarm. The most important thing here, the food, is also a FAIL! The food is very BLAND! I ordered the Rib Eye and Eggs and the Chilaquiles Rojos and only the chilaquiles were ok. The sauce had some flavor. The rest of the food was tasteless! I never leave a steak behind, but I left more than half of it this time! I felt disappointed, but I just couldn't bring myself to eat more of it! The Corico's were fire though! Look at the other 1* reviews. They are very accurate! read more

I saw this place online, and it looked so pretty I had to go check it out. I would like to point out the restaurant does offer limited parking, I believe it's free since literally had a line to go in as it is limited and you have to wait until somebody leaves to be able to go in. It is also a compact parking space. However , for $200 pesos = $10 USd, you can park very quickly right across from it. Right next to it, sharing the parking is another restaurant as well. Which does make it crowded. The view is beautiful as per the pictures. I seems they are in the process of adding more stuff as well as there was some construction going on. The service in the restaurant is slow. During the time we were dining, our server came 1x to see how we were doing. The food was okay. Nothing to be wow about. The big wow is solely the view! read more

As soon as you pull into the parking lot, your breath is pretty much taken away! You see Encanto and the other restaurants nearby, your brain automatically takes you to a daydream with visions of royal Spanish villages and houses that you see in the movies. You have a full ocean view with waves crashing on the rocks! It is extremely beautiful especially because it's set off by the traditional decorations and vibrant colors. Now that is just the appearance of the restaurant. The service is just as amazing. The hostess greets you as soon as you walk up and if you have special requests, they do not seem like they might helping you with it at all. The facility is extremely clean and just decadently decorative. It is spacious inside and out. Even though the restaurant is still under construction. The beauty is definitely memorable. If you choose to sit outside, you will have a breathtaking view of waters from pretty much all directions. We come here every time we visit Baja. The food was as amazing as ever! Here's a sample of what we ordered with ratings of five being the highest. Seafood and steak mocajete: 5 full of meat, lobster, octopus, shrimp and yumminess! The sauces are deep and are thoroughly mixed in with all the meats. We didn't even need tortillas or to add anything to it. Diabla seafood mocajete 4. The comparison to the seafood and steak one, the sauce on this one seems to be lacking, besides the sauce, everything else was amazing with great flavor and texture. Lobster, steak and shrimp: 4.5 The lobster was a little undercooked but the flavor was just the bomb! The garlic shrimp was extremely on point and tender. The arrachera was favored just right but a lil dry this time. Clam chowder 4 The flavoring of the clam chowder was so good. There should probably be more clams and less bread. It is always a treat to come here. You are mentally taken away to a fairy tale land and truly can get lost in the sounds of the waves as it crashes against the rocks. The view is spectacular! read more

Chilaquiles en Salsa Roja con Huevos Fritos, Pechuga de Pollo, Papas y Tortilla con Frijoles Refritos! One of the most amazing breakfast experiences of my life. These chilaquiles were cooked to perfection in a super tasty salsa! The view of the crashing waves was spectacular with a live band playing Spanish and English hits to top it off. We arrived at 10:30am and sat at a table immediately, however the night before it was a 1.5hr+ wait. Our waiter was super accommodating and fulfilled my request to be reseated next to the ocean. Service was a bit slow, but expected given how busy it was. We didn't mind at all though because the environment was so incredible. read more

Food: 4/5 Big portions! I had the shrimp, lobster, and fish combo. The shrimp and lobster were good, but the fish was a little dry. It also would've been nice if that combo came with beans like the other combos. My husband had the shrimp, lobster, and steak combo and he said it was good. Drinks: 3/5 I came here with a group of 6 and only 2 people really liked their drinks. The other 4 said their drinks were either not good, too sweet, or were watered down. They were pretty though! Ambiance: 5/5 Lots of cute colorful decor and photo ops, perfect for social media. We got lucky with an outdoor table and loved the view of the water. Service: 3/5 Friendly but slow. It was a little difficult for us to flag down a server at times. We had to wait quite a while to get our complementary blanket to borrow and it was pretty cold. It also took a while for us to get our check. read more

The place is beautiful. From the chairs to the decorations, to the view/, everything is very nice and instagram ready. My reason for giving it 4 stars instead of 5 is because the food could be better and our waiter was never to be found. We waiting and waited for him to bring us a knife, another beer and at least 30 minutes for our check. I get it he was busy but to the point where we have to go look for him, it's a bit much. read more

This place is all about appearance great view, but that's what you're paying for. We were sat at 7:45 PM we waited 45 minutes before I flagged someone down so we could order our meal. The food was served at 8:45 and they close at 9 PM. The food was served cold and bland ordered lobsters and ribeyes. I felt as if they were rushing us to leave so they could close so I asked for a box to go, but they gave us foil. The waiter took our check and I told him that I would tip Cash, but apparently he already charged the tip on my card and still asked for cash tip. Apparently they prefer cash but they do accept the card however they would automatically add a tip. If you wanna spend your money for scenic view. This is it. read more

We were there for Muertos and it was busy probably like any other weekend with maybe an extra 50 people or so. Everything was open all the restaurants shopping. Plenty of parking. It's always a fun experience. It was easy to get into Encanto and sit in the beautiful bar area. We had a small table with three chairs on a tiny round patio overlooking the ocean. The drinks are very expensive here. Cocktail is about $15. They do however provide chips and salsa at no charge. Service was good even though they were very busy. With so many wonderful places to eat in Rosarito I may not visit again anytime soon. But you should try it out. I'm reading it low because of the high prices. read more

The ambiance is very nice. Seated outside you have the view of the ocean. Although it was a chilly day so we chose to sit inside. Food is good. While Others chose ranchera steak and it was delicious well seasoned. I would order that next time. I ordered Cameron mojo de ajo the only issue I had is that it wasn't seasoned. I don't know if this was intentional or they do it for a reason. There was salt on the table but I like my food seasoned while cooking. Other than that I had a nice Mother's Day brunch with family. read more
