" Was looking forward to dining at Enka but had a rather average experience. The food was good but felt like I could have gotten more value elsewhere. The service was friendly, but the wait for food was longer than expected. Might come back to give it another try, but my first impression was underwhelming. " (*Curated Review*)

" Visiting Enka was a delightful experience! The ambiance was warm, reminiscent of a Japanese izakaya. Although I found the service a bit lacking in speed at times, the food was delightful. Had some great grilled items, but I truly loved their housemade tofu. I will definitely return and try more dishes. " (*Curated Review*)

" A friend recommended Enka, and I’m glad I went! The food was generally good, and they had incredible happy hour deals. I loved trying the different skewers! The joy of sharing various small plates and the social atmosphere made it a highlight of the week for me. I’ll surely be back for more. " (*Curated Review*)

" A wonderful dining experience overall! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was welcoming. The food was delightful, with the gyoza being exceptionally memorable. The service was attentive, and they accommodated our dietary restrictions without fuss. I would love to visit again and try out some of their other offerings! " (*Curated Review*)

" Every bite of food was packed with flavors! I loved the grilled cherry tomatoes and the seasoned chicken. Each plate showcases their attention to detail and authenticity. The service staff was very polite and prompt. I had a great time and would definitely recommend it to friends looking for an izakaya experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve tried Enka multiple times and have enjoyed every visit. The ambiance is lively, making it perfect for gatherings. The service team is usually friendly, and the yakitori options are extensive and flavorful. As a sushi lover, I appreciate their sashimi as well, fresh and colorful! Great overall experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" Fantastic value! The lunch specials at Enka are incredible. I got a bento box filled with different items, including gyutan and tempura, all for a reasonable price. Each taste was delightful, and I was pleasantly surprised by the quality for the price. Definitely coming back for lunch with friends soon. " (*Curated Review*)
