They have two salsas a spicy red - it had great flavor but was very spicy and a flavorful green mild salsa I took a seat and waited for my order. There are several tables to sit at and A TV with soccer playing. My order was done fairly quickly and packed very well. The tacos were all labeled The tacos were stuffed with meat. At other places I usually order four so that is what I got here but I was full after three! The rice and beans were very tasty as well. I reheated my fourth taco later that evening and it was still good I definitely want to go back and try the tortas and other items

The flavors were great, portions were generous, and everything came out fresh and delicious. The service was also outstanding. Our server, Leo, was very welcoming and made us feel comfortable from the start.

His recommendations were excellent--the carnitas were delicious, and the Watermelon Hibiscus Margarita was amazing. Overall, the combination of great food, friendly service, and a welcoming atmosphere made for a wonderful family dinner. We'll definitely be coming back and would highly recommend this place to others.

I only saw a bar tender who doubled as a server, and one busman in the front of house. I don't know how many were in the back, but this explains why the wait was so very long. Once seated, it was another 15 minutes to get our orders in. Once the food arrived, it was served hot as expected. My friend's chicken chipotle was delicious but my birria wasn't great. There wasn't much of it, and what was there was largely tasteless. I was given two tortillas which wasn't enough. Their salsa was outstanding though! I wanted more of that and practically drank it. Unfortunately, given my experiences, I won't go back. Management needs to hire some employees so the wait won't be so long.

If your family has different dietary preferences, this is the perfect place because everyone will find plenty of great options. Whenever I'm in the Santa Clarita area, I'll definitely be coming back. Highly recommended!

The place already had great reviews, so we figured we had to give it a try. I'm so glad we did! The gentleman who took our order was incredibly kind, welcoming, and accommodating from the moment we walked in. I also appreciated that they offer slightly lower pricing if you pay with cash. We all ended up ordering chilaquiles--one plate with green sauce and the other two with red sauce--and got our eggs over easy. Let me just say: these were hands down some of the best chilaquiles we've had in the area. The flavor, texture, and portion sizes were all top notch. I also loved that they have an open salsa bar along with complimentary chips for every order. Little touches like that really make the experience even better. There's also plenty of seating inside, and they have a restroom located in the back, which is always convenient when dining with kids. The ambiance is very casual and laid back, making it an easy and comfortable brunch spot. We'll absolutely be coming back again soon!

But we were also very pleasantly surprised by the service, which i remembered it to be ... not memorable. When service in so many sectors have gone the way of the flip phone, Faith is a breath of fresh air, or 5G to continue the cell phone metaphor. She smiles genuinely and seems to really enjoy helping her customers. The wife ordered the Grilled Corn Elote and Faith expertly carved it a the table for us. I was expecting a lot of corn to be left on the cob; good for me because I hoped to nibble on the detritus. But it quickly became apparent that this wasn't Faith's first rodeo. To my wife's pleasure, while crushing my hope, the cob came out whistle clean from Faith's expert hand. I also appreciate it when service is pre-emptive and anticipatory, not reactionary. Ordering a coke, then having to hunt down the server begging for a refill has become the status quo for most restaurant experiences. But Faith's attention is refreshingly anticipatory, asking if I needed a refill well before the straw's guttural wail when more air than liquid passes. Good food tastes better with good service. Solita is great food with great service (especially if you're lucky enough to have Faith help you). Try it out again if you've been away awhile like us.

Plates here all are priced around $16-$20 a plate, with lots of different traditional flavors, and a host of specialty drinks with a full bar. It's not huge here, but it's one of the few bars in the area, and I would probably make it a staple given the cantinas in Newhall. I tried their sopes, which was 1 for $9.99 and was so friggin huge(I didn't even finish it), and the flavors were dialed in. Fresh and robust ingredients. Salsa was enjoyable too. I was initially craving a Michelada, which was what brought me here, and they happened to have the "Michelada Loka" which was pretty epic for $20. A Modelo and a Corona Michelada, upside down, in a large glass, adorned with shrimp, tajin, and chamoy. Totally my style, and reminds me of "Dos Pistolas" from "Los Originales" down the street, but I digress. I loved the drink but it was a bit pricey, but will definitely be back for it again. All in all, worth the $30 something bucks, I will be back, and if I was in my 20s I'd be here weekly. You should've try it if Hispanic bars are your thing. To each his own. Cheers'

I went to this place last Tuesday. I ordered myself Steak Tacos and my wife wanted fish tacos. I was trying to order fried corn shelled tacos, but they talked me into trying small taco sized flour tortilla grilled on the flat top for both types of tacos. I have to say, all the ingredients were fresh & tasty. The place is clean and staff is friendly. My complaint would be that the value for what you get is overpriced, but tasty. Steak Tacos were $5 each and not stuffed and fish tacos were $6 each. It gets 4 stars for the freshness, tastiness, cleanliness and good service. Respectfully, Taco Man Wedo!
