Exquisite Onsite Dining At Encanterra Country Club

Explorations Café and News:

A reference to the Old World meets New World heritage of Encanterra, Explorations Café & News is much more than just a pick-up counter and paper cups. It is a neighborhood gathering place. A mix of comfortable tables and chairs as well as lounge-style seating is paired with heavy, colorful ceramic mugs and dishes to project a “sit down and stay awhile” message. Healthy light fare, fresh baked goods and smoothies complement the coffee menu to expand the café’s appeal; this all in addition to access online and to newspapers from The Times of London to The Arizona Republic.

Apps and Après:

Apps & Après has the feel of an upscale wine bar inside combined with a favorite resort patio outside. Its layout and design will give the guest the feeling of a warm and comfortable tavern that could be found somewhere in the Mediterranean – Spain, Greece or Italy. The experience culminates in warm, comfortable seating with a contemporary edge. Custom-made furnishings accented with rich leather, wood, and glass – along with outstanding service – create a distinctive and inviting atmosphere.

Bistro 1528:

Bistro 1528 harnesses all the best aspects of La Casa – comfort, location, animation – and combine them with the unique elements of a free-standing dining experience – intimacy, menu diversity and service.  Bistro 1528 is upscale Mediterranean, offering a casual yet sophisticated feel with emphasis on delicious continental cuisine, superior service and genuinely friendly team members.

The atmosphere is also a bit hip and blends well with the Mediterranean architectural theme of the entire community.  The layout and design segue to the outdoors, offering Members and guests the opportunity for casually intimate evenings. With multiple dining experiences available including multiple indoor and outdoor private dining spaces, a Chef’s Table in the kitchen and little alcoves with views of the open kitchen, Bistro 1528 is the perfect place to dine and relax.

The Vault at 1528:

The Vault is that special, little-promoted but exceptionally well-known aspect of 1528. A place to relax alone or with friends, the Vault is one part wine storage, one part tasting room, and one part sanctuary. The service experience delivered here would best be described as the “royal treatment”.
