Brothers Encore Italian Restaurant & The Pub 5135 Waterway Drive, Montclair, VA 22025

"First time here, might be back because it’s fairly close and I like supporting small businesses. The service was great, it was pretty slow because I was eating early. My server was really attentive and super polite and friendly. Luckily I did ask if the chicken parm was frozen patties and she said that they were. I appreciate that kind of honesty. I’m a sucker for chicken Parmesan but I like it to be house-breaded. I ordered cheese sticks which came out really fast, but they were still solid inside. Otherwise the sauce was decent and they tasted good. The bread and salad were pretty good as well. I ended up ordering manicotti. A little disappointing, sauce was thin and tasteless. Plenty of cheese but it was barely melted. Manicotti is one of these things that’s so simple you have to get all the ingredients right or it’s not that great. But the service more than made up for the food."

"Want a friendly, local, family-owned neighborhood Italian place? That is what Brother's Encore provides. The pizza is good NY/NJ pizza that is hard to find in Virginia. The pasta dishes are hearty and delicious. The salads are straight forward but fresh and generous. The atmosphere is homey with regulars greeted by name."

"Brothers Encore has been one of our favorite places for over 20 years. We love the Chicken A la Encore and so many other dishes! Their pizza is a staple of our family Fridays!! Wonderful people that own it and staff it; they’re also generous in the community!"

"First time visiting this restaurant, and I have to say that that quality of the pizza is really good and cheesy. I’ll consider coming back again. I recommend this venue for family dining."
