El Encanto’s father-daughter team has been winning over locals with chef Regino Hernandez’s saucy Mexican cuisine—so much so, the duo recently opened another location in Fountain Hills.

Cave Creek Rd., Cave Creek, 480.488.1752, www.elencantorestaurant.com.
Don’t Miss Dish: Chile Relleno con Pollo, a large, fresh roasted Anaheim chili stuffed with refried beans and grilled chicken, topped with entomatada sauce and Jack cheese.
