Encuentro

  • 550 2nd St. Oakland CA 94607

Encuentro began as a wine bar in Jack London Square in 2009; it later made the move down the street to a larger space, with an expanded menu of vegan and vegetarian offerings in 2014.

Now, almost three years later, the restaurant will shut its doors due to “the rising costs of doing business.” It’s a familiar phrase these days as minimum wage rises (now $12.86 in Oakland as of January 1, 2017), and rents follow suit.
