After someone RAVED about the carne adovada on Chowhound, I knew I had to have it. Unfortunately, I wasn't awed at all: the pork wasn't very tender and the sauce was really rather bland. I wanted to try the posole, but the server almost refused to let me order it, saying it was a "meal in itself." The portions were pretty big, and it's funny how prices fluctuate from 8$ (the soup) to 30$ (the fish specials).
We went on a Sunday night and there was no wait. The atmosphere of the restaurant is cute and homey, with a fireplace that's looks a little strange next to the huge flat-screen TVs behind the bar.
I don't get it. Maybe it was an off-night? Maybe I ordered the wrong thing? Hum.
