Encima Roof Deck is on the SP floor of City Gardens Hotel \/ IMAGE from City Garden Hotel<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">On 2017, it was just a simple restaurant that happened to be on the roof deck of City Gardens Hotel. Now, they elevated themselves into becoming <strong>Encima<\/strong>. Their new name, which means <em>above<\/em> in Spanish, also inspires their Tex-Mex menu and interiors. Embracing the outdoors, they kept the roof deck open to allow diners to both eat and enjoy the Makati skyline at the same time.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Tex-Mex cuisine is mostly characterized by Mexican staple foods with milder substitutes replacing traditional ingredients. In Encima, not only do they balance the American and the Mexican dishes together but they also listen to their customers and offer a special menu that they spice up every month.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-24339\" src=\"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/food\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2018\/08\/nachos-suprema-encima-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/food\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2018\/08\/nachos-suprema-encima.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/food\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2018\/08\/nachos-suprema-encima-290x218.jpg 290w, https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/food\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2018\/08\/nachos-suprema-encima-800x600.jpg 800w, https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/food\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2018\/08\/nachos-suprema-encima-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;font-size: 10pt\">NACHOS SUPREMA (Php 410). Nachos loaded with beef, salsa, black olives, cilantro, spring onion, guacamole, sour cream, pico de gallo and cheese sauce. It is surprisingly crunchy yet soft and easy to chew, thanks to the sauce. Once the chips absorb the sauces, you will be able to taste the interesting flavors of the toppings: savory, tangy, and spicy.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Many also find it enjoyable to admire the cityscape during the afternoon, watch the sunset, or look at Makati&#8217;s skyscrapers at night. Other than having blinds and a roof above your head, Encima is very much a rooftop lounge with smoking areas and non-smoking tables. At night, they have beautiful outdoor lights perfect for both a rooftop party or a classic date.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-24337\" src=\"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/food\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2018\/08\/encima-salmon-mexicana-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/food\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2018\/08\/encima-salmon-mexicana.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/food\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2018\/08\/encima-salmon-mexicana-290x218.jpg 290w, https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/food\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2018\/08\/encima-salmon-mexicana-800x600.jpg 800w, https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/food\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2018\/08\/encima-salmon-mexicana-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><span style=\"font-size: 10pt\"><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">SALMON MEXICANA (Php 790).
