I recently visited Encasa for a friend's birthday after not having eaten there for a couple of years. The food was just as good as I remember. We had a set menu as there was quite a few of us and there was LOADS of food. Tapas and some really tasty pizza! The sangria is always a hit there too... More

I was a lone diner and was treated very well by two staff and a bit awkwardly by another. food was quick and reasonably priced. the port pate was a bit bland and needed the honey to give it some taste. the squid was octopus and quite nice with aoli. I had a nice spanish red wine for $8. More

A tremendous tapas restaurant that's been at it for years. Noisy, bustling, with plenty of staff ready to jump to your needs - really! Helpful and friendly, which is not quite what I expected after reading some of the reviews. Great for parties and groups, and would be great pre-theatre. The portions are large, and all really delicious. We also... More

We popped in for a 6:30 reservation before an 8:00 show at the Capitol Theatre Tapas came quickly, and was tasty and good portions. The sangria was quite lovely.

The service... More

I love this place as it was near where I worked and the food was always good - so much to choice from when dining as couple you have to dine there many times to be able to sample all the food on offer. More

Best paella ever, awesome flavour, not soggy or dry and loads of seafood, The sangria is an awesome accompaniment to your meals. As for the tapas, garlic prawns, chorizo and garlic mushrooms are also tasty dishes, but don't expect huge servings for tapas. Better to book ahead as it gets overly crowded. And when dining, it gets VERY loud, sometimes... More

As far as tapas goes, it's ok. Not bad, but not mind blowing. More

This was the first spanish cuisine I had ever had and it was definitely worth trying! I'd heard many good things about Encasa and walking past it each time, it was packed, so I decided to try with friends and it definitely didn't disappoint. The staff were amazing and very attentive, checking up on us every once in a while... More
