    I am astonished that this place is so inexpensive! We got enchiladas for 10.99 which has four enchiladas and rice and beans. Tacos for 2.99 and they are just delectable. They are very authentic if you are looking for a real mexican meal. Great staff in the place as well; service is amazing and very sweet people. The place is very nice and small and quiet. Very clean and chill. Highly reccomend this. The red sauce on the enchiladas are DELICIOUS. Way different than other places I've eaten at!

    Caldo de res

    Ordered the Caldo de res. BEST caldo in ALL of Orlando!!! Great price, nice size, enough meat, not 2 little pieces like most places. Very herby. I'll be back!!

    Vegan enchiladas made to order! Veggies in two and nopales( cactus) in two others

    It's a hole in the wall near a laundry mat and it's the best Mexican traditional food. Everything was real and delicious! Home made tasting and I saved this place as a favorite. Prices are less than 15$ a plate average $10. The owner was so nice she came to the table and asked why my daughter wasn't eating and I told her she's vegan and she started thinking and came up with a whole vegan meal for her! Veggie green enchiladas and rice and beans!!!!! . The beans are made with oil not lard and the rice is vegan too. So amazing the offered to make it for her off menu! Can't beat this place but if you want bottomless margaritas or Texmex this isn't for you!

    First time here

    I had been planning to stop by this restaurant for a while, and finally pulled the trigger. This is your typical small, hole in the wall Mexican Restaurant, just like the ones I was used to in Nashville. No regrets at all! The food was really good, portion sizes were good and the prices are VERY reasonable. The Camarones a la Diabla dish was delicious and so was the Pollo a la Crema. The staff was great and the owners are very nice, humble people. I will definitely be a repeat customer, no doubt about that. Before I forget....try the Horchata. It was delicious and very refreshing.

    New location! Bigger space!

    Don't let the shady area get you. I love this place! This is my go to place for lunch during work. Their portions are relatively big and shareable. I always go with one of my colleague and we always order the same thing. I always get the nachos with chicken. You can get anything on the nachos that's available for the tacos. I have tried every single one and the chicken is by far the best one, no fail. Fajitas is also a good to share dish. I did did chicken. If you don't like chicken, then the chorizo is the next best thing. The steak is decent for the fajitas, not the nachos. I love this place! It is the best price for the food for lunch!

    Great! I was nervous reading the review about the neighborhood, and the only thing that was a little intimidating was the bars on the window and doors of the restaurant. Neighborhood was just fine. Great food, great service. You can dine in or carry out. Really cheap food but good quality!!

    Great Mexican restaurant... Staff is very attentive and friendly. They have an open kitchen, so you can see everything they are cooking. Tacos are only $1.50 - what's not to like? And they are not cheap with the meat. We only ordered two chorizo tacos. I tried the Pozole, a traditional soup. It was wonderful. It had hearty chunks of pork, and I loved the hominy corn. I liked them and I would go back. Also, they are open for breakfast.

    Todo perfecto!!  Pollo el mole.  Delicioso.
    Mark P.

    Yea, I'm sort of a fan. They could be one of my new favorite Mexican places! Everybody's so friendly and nice. Warm and welcoming. And with the open kitchen, you kinda sorta of feel like you're in someone's home. Until very recently, for me, the only very best Mexican was found in a flea market food truck in DeLand but this is almost on the level. Oh, and there's not much of a language barrier here too as sometimes can be with small Mexican places, Spanish and English menus on spot. $1.50 tacos are always awesome, and these are tender juicy plump ones. Love those chorizo tacos! I also went in for the chicken mole, which I liked; wonderfully rich in all its mole bliss, but I half expected something somewhat different.

    Shrimp fajita
    Sheng L.

    Affordable local Mexican restaurant. Very friendly staff. The food is ok... portions are just right too. There's tamale available but it's not on the menu. $1 each. (Pork or chicken ) the pork one is well seasoned. Chicken tamale doesn't taste like anything. Try it with their sauces. If you like spicy then use the red bottle. Otherwise the green bottle is a cilantro sauce and has just a tiny bit of spice. Drinks - pineapple, horchata (rice milk), and Jamaica( hibiscus tea). I ordered the shrimp fajitas to share with my friend. It comes with 4 corn tortilla. The shrimp was good. The tortilla edges were a bit hard and dry. The plaza seems a bit shady (there's metal bars on the windows) but the restaurant is spacious inside and clean.

    Disclaimer: this review is for the lunch buffet only…read more I went with my family to try the $18.49 all you can eat lunch buffet. This was my first time experiencing a buffet for hispanic food and for this price point in Orlando, this is an amazing value deal. The server regularly brought us out silverware, napkins, and refilled our water. The place is decorated very fun and plays latin music which was lovely Not only was there an unlimited assortment of lunch foods, but an entire bar of fresh toppings for tacos (or rice bowls) and made to order desserts which were included for free! Not everything on the buffet line was the best but given the amount of options, price, and how good the great items are this is still worth a five star rating. I unfortunately did not take pictures of the food before I began devouring everything in sight to the point of near-collapse, but I will do a quick rundown of the buffet highlights: The best meats were the fajita steak, chicken, and shrimp made fresh in cast iron skillets, as well as the chicken lengua which was super flavorful and tender. The mexican rice, beans, fajitas, plantains, and street corn were also excellent. Fresh quesadillas, chips, and corn tortillas on standby with homemade queso and salsas. The flan and mini churros were the best I've ever had. Super rich, decadent Carmel flan. Mini churros hot and crisp on the outside, filled with a gooey soft milk chocolate center. They were delicious. Items that were disappointing: the tamales, mini chicken flautas, and beef chimichangas were just okay, lacking the seasoning and flavor that other dishes had. The beef barbacoa was not as tender or flavorful as the shredded chicken surprisingly. The mixed seafood was itself a mixed bag with some shrimps / scallops overcooked to much while others were perfectly cooked. The chicken mole and beef tri tip were room temperature despite sitting on hot plates. The tri tip also varied widely in doneness throughout the slices and not super tender. The rice pudding was pretty standard, and the tres leches cake was weird as they crumbled the cake into pieces before soaking it.

When I sat down, I ordered the frozen Margarita flight, which came with a watermelon, mango, and strawberry Margarita. All of them were pretty good, but by far the mango was my favorite. It tasted just like you were drinking mango nectar. For my entrée, I ordered the Carne Asada tacos. They had such a great taste, and the portion size was quite generous. I ordered it with rice and beans, and it all left me feeling quite full. The atmosphere is also quite nice. With it being in the heart of downtown orlando, I thought it might be loud and busy in there, but it was actually quite quiet and relaxing. The service was also very quick and prompt to get all of our food. Our waitress made sure to check in with us throughout service to see what we needed!

    I was really looking forward to trying Solita because I had looked over the menu multiple times…read morebefore visiting, but unfortunately the experience was disappointing from start to finish. When we arrived, the restaurant was practically empty, there was no hostess, and we had to wait to be acknowledged. Our server (a Hispanic woman with heavy goth-style makeup--I didn't catch her name) was polite enough, but there were several missed opportunities to improve the experience. The biggest issue was that they were out of multiple menu items we specifically came to try. We had also planned on ordering the duck-themed cocktail that was pictured online, only to be told, "We don't do that anymore." If that's the case, the menu and promotional photos should really be updated. Food: * Chicken Nachos - 3/10: Mostly burnt chips with hard, unmelted cheese. There was barely any chicken, and they lacked flavor. * Watermelon Margarita - 0/10: It was extremely sour. I sent it back and ordered a frozen margarita instead. * Frozen Margarita - Average at best. What was frustrating is that happy hour started about seven minutes later, and our server never mentioned that nearly everything we ordered would have been half-price. A heads-up would have been appreciated. * Street Corn - 6/10: The tableside presentation of cutting it off the cob was nice, but that's really what you're paying for. It could have used much more seasoning, and only two small pieces of corn were served. * Shrimp Tacos - 2/10 * Fish Tacos - 2/10: Both were soggy and lacked flavor. * Spanish Rice - 1/10: Bland and disappointing. Overall, the food was underwhelming, several advertised menu items and drinks weren't available, and the service missed opportunities to enhance the experience. For the prices, I expected much better quality, better communication about happy hour, and a menu that matched what was actually being offered. Unfortunately, I don't see myself returning.
