My family took me here for a birthday lunch (we let the hostess know as such, but there was nothing special done for birthdays apparently). The ambience is somewhat rustic. The waitress was nice and attentive. They brought us some chips and salsa (a little on the salty side, and almost tasted like a marinara sauce). I had the shrimp enchiladas -- asked for the pico de gallo on the side, but it somehow made its way inside; fortunately, it tasted good enough for me not to mind it. My wife had the carne asada plate. The flavor was good, she said, but the cut of meat was a little chewy and fatty. The black beans and rice was okay, but a little too much tomato flavor in the rice for my taste. The cost was a little on the expensive side, now that I think about the value of the meal. Overall, the experience was simply "okay."
