The original El Encanto is a romantic Old-World Mission-style restaurant cradled in the heart of Cave Creek. It really has the sights, sounds and Tastes of Mexico. Walk through the archway and you will feel as though you have been transported to Mexico with beautiful tile scenes, wrought iron gates and furnishings. It also has a picturesque pond, where diners famously sit along the water, under a covered patio, and observe and mingle with the playful wildlife, including ducks, turtles, owls, and an amazing blue heron. Each of the El Encanto restaurants have the feel of old Mexico and each has a water feature which helps to create and warm and welcoming atmosphere in which to enjoy our fine food.

Back in 1958 when there were more saguaros than people in the desert Southwest, Monsieur Louis German arrived in Scottsdale and opened a French restaurant called Chez-Louis in the Old Town Scottsdale. The area was the perfect location. For both of his passion: authentic French food and his love for horses.
Forty years later German open Le Sans Souci in Cave Creek at 7030 E Belle Vista Dr. Le Sans Souci is a rare gem that brings delicious food and French ambiance without having to fly an ocean away.

Our Wine Bar setting is a very rare find in the Valley!
Why you ask?? Well we do not believe in up-charging you to enjoy your wines at Brix! So what does that mean?? Basically, if you find yourself at another unique combination of a wine shop and wine store in one, you will almost always be charged what they like to call a "corkage" fee in order to enjoy your wines while at the bar. Well we simply do not believe in corkage fees! So whatever the retail cost of the bottle of wine, that is the cost for you to enjoy that bottle and an evening out at Brix!
Not a penny more,
We are a retail shop first and foremost, so at Brix you have an unsurpassed selection of wines to choose from, either to enjoy during your visit here or to purchase for your cellar at home. We invite you to stop by for your next afternoon date or just to check us out...and you will be pleased to find the selection that many from the wine world have dubbed the best they have ever seen in an independent shop!
