Soledad by Chef Julian Medina and partner, Meghan Manzi, celebrates the Mexican family table. Medina named the restaurant after his grandmother – Soledad Diaz – in tribute to the family matriarch and the dishes she began cooking in Michoacan, Mexico
“I don't have enough good things to say about this place. I've been coming since they opened. They have a wonderful menu with a new age mexican feel. Food is excellent, as are the drinks, but what truly sets this place apart is it's wonderful staff. They are all kind, courteous and thoughtful. Soledad has a wonderful, welcoming atmosphere and I will continue to recommend it to anyone interested.”
“Their guacamole - chips, and prime ribeye tacos are highly recommended. The prices during Happy Hour are unbeatable. Happy Hour is from 4 to 6 p.m. and is only available for bar seating.”
“What an incredible dining experience! From the moment we sat down, everything about this restaurant felt warm, welcoming, and thoughtfully curated. The food was absolutely amazing — every dish that came to the table was beautifully presented and packed with flavor. You can truly tell that a lot of care goes into both the quality of the ingredients and the presentation. It felt like every plate was crafted with attention to detail. Beyond the food, the service made the experience even more special. Our server Pablo was outstanding — attentive, friendly, and professional. He made sure we were comfortable the entire time and gave great recommendations. Nicolas, the runner, was efficient and kind, making sure everything arrived promptly and checking in with a smile. And a special thank you to the Manager, Rebeca, who was incredibly lovely and welcoming. She took the time to make us feel valued and ensured everything was perfect for our table. It’s rare to find a place that delivers both exceptional food and such genuine hospitality, but this restaurant truly does. We left happy, satisfied, and already looking forward to coming back. Highly recommended! 🌟”
“We had a great meal at Soledad last night. We had a reservation for four, and were seated promptly at wonderful table at the front windows. Rafael took great care of us, considering he was also tending to a rather large group sitting on the other side of the door. Modelos were fresh. Drinks and cocktails were delicious, but took a while to make their way from the bar. We had the Carnitas Sushi to start. Then the ladies both got the Loma Saltido, while I had the Carne Asasa, and my friend ordered the Pato Mole. All dishes were so delicious and different from most other Latin fare that we’ve enjoyed. The desserts were also top-tier- churro sundae and Zanahoria (Carrot) Tres Leches Cake. I highly recommend this place for an elevated date spot- prices weren’t cheap (just under $100/pp) but the food and drink were memorable, and the female manager who stopped by our table was so hospitable and invited us back with our dogs to sit out front. All four of us can’t wait to return!”
“Came here for a few weeks ago and loved it! I think it's relatively new to the area but I would definitely come back again! For a Tuesday evening it was pretty lively which bodes well for its popularity I think. Despite being busy, the service was efficient and staff members were friendly! We tried a few different items including the tuna tartar tacos, ensalada de verano, enchiladas soledad, pato con mole (duck carnitas), and pasta seca. I have to say the tacos and enchiladas were my favorite but there's so much more on the menu we didn't get to try. For a group of 5 people this was a good amount of food though I'm sure we could have finished another entree if we tried. Will definitely return in the future!”
