    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!
