If you complain about this place, you're just looking for drama bc they don't miss here. Communal style seating is efficient and pretty cool unless you're lame and don't like to socialize.
The food is fresh as can be and delicious every single time. The black beans, the plantains, and even the white rice is special. The bistec is delicious but in flavor, just be prepared for a good chew.

I was really craving Puerto Rican food. My husband and I had finished our hike and was wondering what was next. He say he was game so off we went to Sol. We first stopped at the Mill Valley location but that is not dine in. I live to far away to make this a to go meal so we opted for the San Rafael location.
The ambiance is nice. It can be communal seating. Meaning you sit near strangers But I recommend going. The food was good. It is right now in the top three Puerto Rican spots in the Bay Area.
Yes I recommend. I had a jibaro. I was very good. Very large. The limeade is huge and worth it.
Absolutely delicious! We were greeted by (who we assumed was the owner) and he was extremely friendly and welcoming, and explained how their menu worked. The eating environment was so upbeat and lively, both of our meals were very promising, and although not the main course, their fries tasted fresh. Definitely worth a try if you enjoy or have interest in trying Puerto Rican food.
The food here was amazing. I was a little uncomfortable with the family style seating and sharing a table with random strangers, but I understand the genre they are trying to serve. This experience did not stop me from enjoying my food 100% though! The food was so good!
Customer service was wonderful which goes a long way in my book. This lively atmosphere uses their space creatively to accommodate more people by sharing tables. Great place to have lunch. I hade the camarones a la diabla and pineapple bread pudding, which both were very tasty. The shrimp is spicy but not unbearable especially with the side of avocado that comes with it to tone it down if you need to. I will definitely come again because the host made us feel welcomed as a first time customer and the food was delicious!
everything here is delicious—from the combo plates to the sandwiches to the drinks. great portions and tons of fun sides. plus i love their special sauce. highly recommend the plantain-crusted prawns.
the space is cozy with friendly service and communal tables. you will probably have to wait in line but it moves quickly!
If you’re in Marin and looking for amazing food this is the spot. Note: all the sandwiches are AMAZING, you can’t go wrong with any one you choose. Our go to is the Paraíso sandwich. It’s the first on the list. Savory Sweet and filling. Also the beans and rice are must.
Note: seating is all communal seating so if you go during Peak hours it’s going to suck to find immediate seating if you are with a group.
Stopped by this place for lunch and was not disappointed. I had the Cubano sandwich with fries and it was a mouthwatering delight. My friend ordered the Victor's Crispy Tacos that were a burst of Mexican flavors, with the crispy shells filled with tender meat, fresh toppings, and zesty salsa. Lastly, we shared the Mofongo Relleno De Camarones that was a Caribbean treat, with the savory plantain mash and the succulent shrimp creating a delightful combination. The flavors were rich and well-balanced, leaving me craving for more. I highly recommend visiting for a satisfying lunch experience.
I can’t believe I haven’t visited this place before.
We decided to stop here on our way back to SF after doing some wine tasting in Sonoma and will definitely be making the drive up just for Sol Food. The entire experience was great. The man working the door was so friendly and walked us through the menu but also asked us about our day. When we left he even gave us recommendations for an upcoming Mexico City trip.
The food is exceptional. We had the el bistec encebollado with plátanos maduros and shared it between the two of us and were very full. The flavors are perfect. You must try the house made pique. I liked it so much i left with a bottle. We also had the ponche, which is a limeade, orange juice mix. It’s a big drink and we each left with a to go cup.
I can’t wait to come back, 10/10 recommend.
We went to San Rafael and we wanted to try something new, we choosed Sol food. We saw the picture of Pudin de pina on yelp and it looked good but after I tried, it was simple and not amazing much as I expected.
I tried some of the Cubano that my friend ordered, I felt like nothing special. The most impressive one is Costillas de cerdo. Pork ribs was so flavorful. I ordered 3pcs. of ribs but it's was not enough, so I would recommend you need to order 6pcs.
The service was fast and friendly. Staff was very nice and attentive.
