I was one of a group of 8. We had such a good time at a round table. The server was attentive and fun. We all enjoyed the food. I had the mahi mahi sandwich and loved it.

Always love Solare. The food is very good and the prices are reasonable. They can do a better job in having more California Chardonnay, however.

The tiramisu is my main reason to go there. It’s prepared at your table with crispy ladyfingers, espresso poured over them, lots of marscopone cream on top, amaretto cookie crumbs and cocoa powder top it off. Nothing I ever had compares. Also, the food is great

The restaurant was the perfect spot for Mother’s Day! My Wife and I enjoyed every bit of it. The service was wonderful. The food was great and it was a perfect day outside to be outside! We love the garden atmosphere of the patio area. We definitely will be coming back! Thank you so much!
