Pialon Restaurant Tapas and Bar
Tucked along Ventura Boulevard, Pialon brings Mediterranean-inspired small plates to a warm, string-lit outdoor courtyard. The vibe leans social, with shareable dishes built for lingering over drinks with a group. Open daily from 5pm, it's an easy pick for a lively dinner outside.

Davenport's Restaurant
For a more upscale evening, Davenport's patio comes with fire pits and a well-insulated setting just off the 405 on Ventura Boulevard. It's known for steaks, seafood, and a dog-friendly outdoor space that regulars call one of the best in the neighborhood.

Coral Tree Café
A daytime favorite, Coral Tree's indoor-outdoor space is built for organic coffee, healthy brunch plates, and a daily happy hour from 3 to 6pm. The patio has a relaxed, community feel that works just as well for a laptop afternoon as it does for weekend brunch with friends.

Vino Wine & Tapas Room
Vino's outdoor patio, complete with a cabana and lounge area, brings a Spanish getaway feel to Encino. Expect tapas, an extensive wine list, and live guitar music on weekend evenings for a slower, more romantic outdoor dinner.
