Delicious Pasta Options

The heart of Il Encanto’s menu lies in its pasta dishes, which cater to a variety of tastes and preferences. Whether you’re a fan of classic pesto or creamy Alfredo, Il Encanto has something for everyone. The Tagliatelle con Pesto ($14.25) features fresh tagliatelle pasta tossed in a rich pesto sauce with toasted pine nuts and sun-dried tomatoes, delivering a flavorful punch. For those who prefer a more vegetable-forward dish, the Penne Verdure ($13.95) includes seasonal vegetables and fresh herbs in a butter sauce.

Seafood lovers can indulge in the Fettucine Alfredo ($14.25), which comes with options of grilled chicken, spicy shrimp, or Italian sausage, while the Linguini Melanzane ($13.95) offers roasted garlic, roma tomatoes, and eggplant topped with gorgonzola cheese for a satisfying vegetarian option.

Panini Selections

Il Encanto’s panini menu is just as impressive, with offerings that highlight the truck’s commitment to fresh ingredients. The Al Funghi panini ($12.50) combines house-made focaccia bread with portabella mushrooms, spinach, roasted red peppers, and goat cheese for a savory and earthy bite. For a heartier option, the Petto Pollo panini ($12.50) features grilled chicken breast, roasted bell peppers, basil oil, and mozzarella cheese, making it a perfect lunchtime pick.

Each panini is served with a side of either spicy roasted red potatoes or a side salad, giving you a complete and satisfying meal.

Fresh Salads and Build-Your-Own Pasta

If you’re in the mood for something lighter, Il Encanto offers a variety of fresh salads, including the Caprese Invernale ($10.50), which highlights winter greens, fresh mozzarella, and basil pesto. The Spinaci ($9.95) salad adds a flavorful combination of spinach, roasted red peppers, pine nuts, and gorgonzola cheese.

For those who prefer to customize their meal, Il Encanto’s “Build Your Own Pasta” option starts at $10.99, allowing you to choose your noodle type, sauce, and add-ons. Options include everything from classic marinara to more exotic offerings like spicy cream sauce or pesto. Toppings range from green peas and caramelized onions to premium options like grilled chicken, Italian sausage, or fresh mozzarella.
