Best Restaurants for Birthdays in Auburn

Another delightful dining experience at Pimienta! Every few weeks my partner and I meet for dinner here on Sunday after spending the weekend with our families. This time we were the only customers in the place (!) and every aspect of the experience was wonderful as always. Our cocktails were delicious, both the non-alcoholic and the house special tequila margarita. The soup de jour was a rich, spicy tomato basil bisque and the Pimienta salad was tasty and refreshing as always. We had the Pollo Rostizado and the special rigatoni with beef tips, prawns & mushrooms in a bleu cheese cream sauce and they were wonderful. But really, the whole menu is excellent! The service is warm and friendly. We always enjoy the music here - this time it was very nice Mexican pop music. Other times it's Sinatra or Italian, but always uplifting. Pimienta is a true hidden gem! Not a place for mass-produced meals from a laminated menu or mediocre portions so huge you'll be lugging home half of your dinner. Just really delicious, creatively crafted food and beverages in an inviting and intimate space hosted by welcoming people who do an outstanding job every time.

Came here to celebrate my sons birthday and he brought a few friends. We all had fun and enjoyed ourselves.

Very good food & service! We will be back in no time.

Everything was great. Need prices on drink menu especially specialty drinks. But everything else was great!

Never disappoints whenever you invite family or friends for some chow.
