I've been coming to American Deluxe for 11 years. I was previously going to another barbershop in Encinitas that was cheaper, but they spent 1/3rd of the time on the cut, and I'd always have to fix my sideburns or lineup when I got home. Ever since coming here, I can't go anywhere else. I have since moved down to North Park and still insist on driving twice a month up to Encinitas just to see my barber. All the barbers are fantastic. Rico, Gino, Ant, Brian, Alex, Zach, etc - you can't go wrong. The shop has a great modern vibe, while still having the classic barbershop touch. I highly recommend this shop to anyone in a 30+ mile radius - they're that good! read more

Friendly, great service and atmosphere. Nikko is an excellent barber. Would recommend read more

Niko does great short hair. Thank you it's was good. Would recommend. Good environment

Great cuts, a community vibe, and awesome people. When you walk into Rico's shop, every barber greets you. You feel welcomed and at home. The prices are great, they stand by their cuts and make sure that you look great, before you hit the door. Over the years, I have made friends with team and I look forward to every visit. read more

Rico and team are top notch!!! Best in SD and always leaves me and my son looking sharp and fresh. read more

Awesome BARBERSHOP I forgot the person who cut my hair I like my haircut.. but the only thing I don't like they don't accept credit card. They only accept cash only. need to change that. read more

I have finally found a place that I can call "my barber shop". I found it a little difficult to find a shop close to home that was fast, affordable, and preformed. I have come twice now and plan on coming when needed. I like that they have multiple barbers available which cuts a line down quickly when waiting. I will say the only downfall is that the wait can get long if you go at busy times. I try to go early or on off times. Check em out! read more

I've been coming to this barbershop for over a decade. Rico is my go to barber, but everyone has been solid if he's not around. Good vibes and I never wait more than 15-20 minutes for a cut unless it's the weekend. Prices are reasonable, location is awesome, and the bartenders are friendly and talented. Highly recommend. read more

Simply the best haircut I've gotten while living in North County, always consistent, no matter what Barber cut your hair. Today was no exception, I didn't know who was going to cut my hair, but I walked out as happy as I always do. Yes, sometimes there's a line, but it's worth it. $30 for a haircut plus a nice tip and you will walk out feeling like a stud. read more

Been going to Rico for almost a decade ! Cuts the whole family! Hands down best shop in Encinitas!

great place. Brian and all the gang cuts great hair. Super friendly. Clean. Short wait time on walkins

Best shop in Encinitas. Always open chairs and the barbers are all high skilled and approachable. Prices are fair. Highly recommend.

I am so disappointed in what my father, a 79 year old veteran of the vietnam war and decorated Navy enlisted man told me about this place and how they treated him. He said he walked in and it wasn't very busy and he asked a barber who was sweeping up if he could get a hair cut, and the barber nastily remarked to him, "I'll get to you when I'm done!" I understand that everyone has a bad day, but my father who is visiting a few months of the year goes to this place every time he gets a chance and besides being rude, it was flat out disgusting to treat the elderly this way, nonetheless a veteran who served his country. I will find another place to take my son and Dad going forward, even though we have been going there for years. You might consider the same. read more

Rico and the crew are legit. Thank you for the cut and I always enjoy the atmosphere of the shop

Rico is the best!!! Highly suggest this shop. Great cuts, solid pricing, and good vibes. All the barbers are welcoming!!!

We always go here for my boys haircuts. Good vibe and quick service. Highly recommend

Awesome place, Rico and his staff are fun and do a super job!! They keep the wait time at a minimum and I always walk away with a great cut!

Rico, Gino and the crew are the best. I've been going here for years and the haircuts can't get any better. Great cuts and even better people..... read more

Rico and ANY barber here hands down will take care of you. I've been coming here for a few years now and can only say the best experience from any barbershop i've had! read more

I love a cash only, old-school barber shop that doesn't mess around. You don't get to work there if you have an attitude and can't cut hair. Rico screens his barbers pretty well. Walk in, grab a number, check the number board, ask what the wait time is (approximately) and go do a couple things. Check out the scuba shop next door...have a beer or bite of food at Mr. Peabodys, grab some Mexican food, shop at the gourmet grocery store, hit up Wendy's, get a 30 minute stretch session at Stretch Zone...lots of ways to fill your time. Then head back and know that no matter who cuts your hair it's going to be good. I prefer Rico (owner) and Sunshine (cool hair, great smile) but haven't had a bad cut yet. They can do small talk, you can sit and chill and not say much as well, it's all good. Great low-key vibe and usually cool tunes jamming in the background. Place is always has always a steady flow of customers - a good sign. Plan on a 30 minute wait or so and conduct your business accordingly. ATM on premises so you can pay for your haircut in greenbacks, wampum, dead presidents, you know the drill. It's $35 - but toss an extra $5 or $10 and feel like a big spender. You will be appreciated more than you know. read more

Great stylists, great customer service. Always good to come in here I feel they are very down to earth and talented

Great cut and all barbers are awesome... thanks Rico! Super friendly and skilled with the clippers. Cheers!

Rico gave me an awesome cut! Great barbers and great shop, pretty awesome atmosphere with some good jokes.

They always cut my son's hair and make him look really great. The hot towel and head massage top it off!

I am an active duty Marine and come in for a cut every weekend. I get my hair cut by Brian, the service provided in this shop is incredible. every time I walk in the shop I am always treated perfectly and always they always engage in conversation and really make it a great place to get your hair cut. read more

So awesome! Brought my elderly father here for a walk-in quick hair/neck/mustache cleanup! Aaron was incredible! Patient and really listened to what my father wanted. His work was SO professional! Loved his kind demeanor and his skill. Trying to get my hubby to be a regular client of Aaron's! Great spot! read more

Adriana is incredibly skilled, friendly and professional. Her attention to detail is impressive! The barber shop's atmosphere is friendly and welcoming. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a fantastic grooming experience! read more

The people were friendly. No wait on a Monday. The haircut was fine. However, $32.00 was a bit much for a standard haircut. With a tip $37.00. read more

American Deluxe is a killer spot to get a haircut! The shop is modern, inviting and relaxing. The plaza can be tough to get in and out of but worth the effort. Rico has great attention to detail and doesn't mind making a few changes here and there if the final length is too long or fade is lower than expected. I would highly recommend this barbershop, the other barbers seem to be on top of their game also. They only take cash read more

First time there and it was pretty busy and had to wait a while, but well worth it! They did a great job on my haircut!

I've been going to American Deluxe for almost two years now since I moved to Encinitas. I don't have a go to barber as I think they all are great at their craft. Rico is just a solid, nice dude that always greets me by name. Patrick, Geno, and Ant are all excellent barbers. I keep my hair pretty short; however, they all spend quality time on me and my cut and it is totally appreciated. I love the pictures and artwork on the wall. It definitely has a cool vibe. I would recommend American Deluxe to anyone who was looking for a barber and I would tell them that whoever cuts their hair they can't go wrong. I love my barber shop! read more

I've been coming here for years. Never had a bad cut. I'm a guy who gets a cut every 6 months or so and they have no problem. Well this time it was 1 and 1/2 years since my last cut. Slightly embarrassed. But Marcos handled it no problem. True professional. Almost an artist. This guy took his time and I could tell he cared. Thank you so much Marcos. Keep that stuff going. Great job Marcos. read more

There is a ticket number systems they let their friends cut in front of it. So even if you're 3-4 numbers away with 5 barbers. Can take 1-2 hours to wait. read more

They do a great job here, BUT beware of the bait and switch. Their "deluxe cut" is $35 on the sign, but if you have long hair they try to charge you $45, which is not listed anywhere and was not disclosed prior to haircut. this has happened twice now. The only reason I went back was I thought maybe I just got a greedy barber the first tim. I really don't appreciate the dishonest pricing and probably won't go back. read more

This shop is really good. I tried buzzing my own hair (bad idea) and my barber fixed it right up and put a lot attention into it. All the other barbers seemed really nice and professional and the shop was super clean. Definitely will come back read more

Whenever I call they say there's no wait, then I rush over within 5 minutes and always waste over an hour waiting. Just tell me there's an hour plus wait (especially when everyone is about to go on lunch break). After coming here for a few years, this will be the last time. read more

Old-school Barber shop. Patrick is the best! Great cuts, great fades. What else do you need to know. My son and I have been coming here for about three years and never a bad cut. You know it's an awesome spot when fellas show up an hour before the place opens! read more
