El Encanto became a favorite for its enchanting setting and great food. The business grew rapidly and eventually needed a more developed and improved infrastructure. In 2003, Bill implored his eldest daughter Christine, a lawyer living in Washington, to come back to run the business. Christine developed new operating systems to manage the increased volume and built a management team to implement
them. They focus on improving consistency and enhancing the level of service. Christine and Chef Hernandez also developed a new menu maintaining many of the old favorites, while adding more fresh seafood and several of Chef Hernandez’s specialties from his hometown, Mazatlan.
