    This is a joyful place, festive with excellent unusual dishes. It’s also very loud and lots of birthday singing. All good - but it’s not for a quiet conversation, romantic dinner, unless you sit outside.

    The room to the left can get get loud, especially with kids running around, but it is still pleasant. The mushroom hummus is insanely good, though at $19... welcome to the new world of dining out. The rib eye skewer is delicious and enough for two to share. My only wish is the onions were grilled or cooked more. They were almost raw. Still a good compliment to the meat, but... The service is very friendly and easy going and overall, this is still a great place to eat.

    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!
