Restaurants near Encino 5 Bedroom House-Private Pool

The food here is outstanding! The service in my previous experiences has been VERY good! Tonight ... the service was sub-par! We waited almost an hour for someone to take our order. Not sure if they were short staffed or having a staff meeting or what- but all someone had to do was explain... instead I just heard 3 times, "we all work as a team here" what does that even mean???? I will give it another chance.. but Also they brought a "complementary" desert... I LOVE sweets, but this was terrible!! So glad I didn't pay for it! Guess they can't do sweets well!

Our server was wonderful and accommodating. All the staff were very kind and helpful. They accommodated some special requests and all of our food came out delicious. Portion sizes were more than ample. There were some problems with our order and a little bit of delay in the service because things were quite busy. Without us asking they offered us a free dessert, which was neither expected nor necessary, but very much appreciated. The dessert was incredible, by the way.

This was the best experience I've had here in the last 6 visits. This time they put us in the main room where there was no dripping water. We waited a reasonable amount of time and the server was pleasant. Our chef cooked our food properly and our table mates were really fun. It's been difficult to have an enjoyable experience here but this one was actually a good one.

The menu is classic steakhouse and the service was stellar. This location is on the 2nd floor in a mini-mall area, but there's parking in the garage below, and there's a great wine list, a small bar (to grab a pre-post dinner cocktail), and the layout of the main room is very nice. We opted to start with oysters, and our mains were the sea bass (delicious) and a Petit filet, with some great sides. If you're up for a nice dinner and don't feel like driving out of the valley - this is a perfect spot.

Absolutely loved the dinner experience at Monaco Encino. Tasty drinks with a wonderful presentation, delicious homemade pasta, and I'm still thinking about their Malabi Martini dessert. The manager and servers were so nice and welcoming too! Definitely a place to try for a date night or girls night!
