Overview
Encanto Alebrije aims to bring a blend of familiar, affordable Mexican fare and higher-end options to downtown just south of Monument Circle. The menu includes familiar Tex-Mex dishes and street food like tacos, in addition to upscale surf and turf such as tomahawk steaks and seafood plates.
The venue that houses Encanto Alebrije seats more than 350 people in the upstairs restaurant space and 80 more in the private basement. The restaurant's name pays homage to Mexican alebrijes, vividly colored folk art sculptures that depict hybrid animals; the restaurant's walls are adorned with murals depicting different alebrijes.
