We had lunch here twice, the food tastes really nice & service is also fast. The only problem, I have is they are having very limited Veg options They should include paneer dishes in their menu. It seems incomplete with very limited options.

All the staff at Enca were really nice, patiently explaining some of the dishes to the kids, a couple of them prefer less exotic food. The food was excellent value and very nice. We were there our first night and returned on our last night as we'd enjoyed it so much. We'd definitely go there again if we're back in... More

Beautiful food every time we ate here. The staff could not do enough for us. The indian food was a great price and tasty. We especially loved the butter chicken, naan and basically everything we tried. Located right across the road from our hotel, it was convenient and delicious. Penang truly has wonderful food....

I read the reviews on this restaurant before we got to Batu Ferringhi and knew we had to try it. We went out looking for it and what a walk it was as we were staying in the Rasa Sayang which is quite a distance away but so worth it. The food and service was first class, we had the... More

We found this place by accident, because we earlier had stuffed ourselves with street food and wanted something 'light' so we just drove around and came across Enca Cafe. We noticed they have tons of different type of varities on the menu which can be over-whelming (chefs must be really talented, they even have mexican burritos on the menu, imagine... More

This cafe is a little gem - it is opposite the Bayview Beach Hotel and I used to have a light lunch there every day - the freshly squeezed juices were yummy!!. I found that there was 'service with a smile' at all times and received very good advice regarding their menu and also had dinner there a few times... More

We have tried lots of different meals from Minestrone soup to curries to chicken chop with pepper sauce and fish and chips and all are... More

Enca Cafe became a regular place for us to eat on our last trip. We stayed at the Bayview Beach Resort Hotel which is opposite and found that it was very convenient and good value for money. They have a large variety of local, indian, italian and western foods to choose from, and every meal we had was fantastic! I... More
