Sol De Nayarit - Best michelada I've had in a long time ! - Mexican Near Me - San Jose, California

I hadn't come here in the past 5 years. Decided to go yesterday, and oh boy I will never again go here. This place looks like a bar NOT FAMILY FRIENDLY! People making out and touching each other. Waitress drinking with the men. Going through cloths not paying attention to customer's. Que lugar tan asqueroso. Esto no es un restaurante familiar si no una cantina con meseras corrientes read more

Great food! Michelada with shrimp is a must. Homemade tortillas and excellent service.

Been coming with the family here for a few years, great food !! Amazing drinks! I recommend trying a "sol chelada" . Place is very clean and the staff is always friendly. If you're in town looking for a great place to eat and have some drinks then try this place. You'll be back I guarantee it!!! read more

Sol De Nayarit - Michelada!! - Mexican Near Me - San Jose, California

really good drinks and pretty good food too. We had the micheladas with the shrimp (more like jumbo prawns) on the rim of the glass. Very tasty, even for those who do not like seafood. My shrimp cocktail was pretty good. This place looks like a whole in the wall type place but it serves up great menu items. I'll be back at some point. read more

The TAMELS are just dry and hard I don't recommend them it doesn't have taste and I honestly wouldn't buy it again it's bad and stiff I would rate the meal a 2-10 it's hard and dry with no taste it took them 30 mins to bring me the e TAMEL so DO NOT RECOMMEND read more

Sol De Nayarit - example it took along time to cut in half - Mexican Near Me - San Jose, California

I'm definitely not a fan - overpriced, low-quality Mexican food with bad service. Chips are store bought, the meat in the burrito was sour (it gave my sister food poisoning), and everything else was bland and needed to be drowned in salsa. The server was not very nice and completely un-attentive. We spent over $40 on two plates of unappetizing food - do yourself a favor and go elsewhere. read more

The food is great and delicious the customer service is above and beyond they are really friendly and have your food and drinks out really fast read more

I arrived with my family to have dinner Sunday at 830pm and as soon as I arrived the waitress who made eye contact with me which i asked nicely if we could get a table for a family of 7 she instantly gave me a rude and badly attitude responding that she couldn't help me that she was too busy to help me and the place was closed but they had the sign still on and other people were still seated. read more

The chicken enchiladas sucked. The chicken meat was nasty, hard and appeared old. It really takes a lot to screw up enchiladas. When I returned them she asked if I wanted something else and I said I will just eat the rice and beans on the plate. She charged me for the rice and beans. Also, during our entire meal, the employees were just sitting there drinking beers not providing service. I went to the jukebox to possibly play a song and after a few seconds of browsing, someone who worked there immediately played an annoying song. Don't bother coming here there is much better Mexican food else where in SJ. Keep your nasty food and poor taste in music to yourself. read more

Food is good(in past visits). Prices on their website are not accurate.i ordered over the phone and they even charge me some extra tortillas!!!!even when I ordered 2 sides of frijoles!how I'm supposed to eat them??? With spoon??? I ordered garlic shrimp wich i pay 19.99 ( and price online is 15)with only 5 shrimps!!! Also I got a shrimp cocktail and it was pretty much tomatoes and onion,not enough broth...And the excuse..they need to pay for the lard!!! Very disappointed and most of it very mad to spend 45 dollars there. read more

Ordered takeout and waited an hour for our food. The take out was messy when she handed it to us, containers hadn't been closed right so everything was spilling. There service is horrendous. We were totally ignored by all the worker the whole time we where there, when we wanted to order and pay each time we had to actually get up and look for an employee in the back. And I attached some pictures of our food. If I could give no stars that would be perfect. read more

I shall never visit again. I ordered a steak salad and it was horrible all lettuce, paper thin avocados and tomato. Ranch that was worse than Hidden Valley. I asked for a Margarita and they had none, asked for Pina colada they had none. My boyfriends food was bland. Customer service was ok, highlights of the night was the corn tortillas. Entertainment was awesome. Their food is not great but for beers and music it might be your cup of tea but not mine. read more

MUST READ!!!! This is one of the worst places ever and not because of the food but because of staff. It deserves no stars but anyway, the food is okay its very authentic.The service is really bad on the other hand. I noticed my food was ready but they took for ever to bring us our food. My wife was very dissapointed and the food was extremely cold. One of the waitress was scratching her head named Sugey and was always on the phone. Gossiping with the owner i believe. She works weekends in the morning. She needs to be more attentive with customers and more clean if they want to become a better restaurant read more

Their version of "carne asada" was a soggy pile of small pieces of beef with very little seasoning and no char at all. The carnitas smelled old and gamey and the cabeza looked terrible. I ate the carne asada and that was enough to know it wasn't worth finishing the other two. Even the refried beans were watery and smelled old. The small amount I ate tore up my stomach, and I eat a lot of Mexican food from random places. This has been the worst since moving to California. read more

I came here today with a group of friends, I ordered tacos and the meat was blaah. My friend ordered a burrito without rice and pico de gallo. When he got it he had to return it because it had rice and pico de gallo. When he got the second one it didn't have pico de gallo but it still had rice! Upon complaining again the lady had the audacity to say it wasn't her fault. That she had written everything on the note to the cook. WTF kind of customer service is that? Don't eat here, go to Tacomania instead. read more

My family and I went there on a Saturday. It was not busy. The waitresses were in the back talking, didnt seat us until I had to walk up to ask for a table. (No biggie) we were sat down on a booth as requested. We were visible to the waitresses. We ordered drinks and food at the same time. We drank our drinks while watching the soccer game. A different waitress came by to ask if we ordered already, I said yes. Didn't realized the time passing while waiting for the food. The same waitress that took our order came by and asked if we already had ate?? I told her we never received our food. Turns out they never put the ticket in the kitchen! We waited for about an hour!! At this point I was more irritated than hungry. Once the food came out the order was incorrect. They corrected that right away, but seem bothered by it. I asked for a to go box for my plate and as I paid I noticed the waitress that took our order was drinking a beer next to the register. We weren't hard to miss or forget about because we were the only bi-racial family in the restaurant. We won't be eating here again. read more

Best micheladas around! Beware!! It's always at least 100 degrees in here. They don't have ac but the food and drinks are amazing

Last week we were looking for a good restaurant and we found Sol De Mexico, Food is good, price good, excellent service we definitely go back again... read more

Another Mexican restaurant, another good super burrito, this one had avacado. Just know that the menu is all in Spanish with some English. read more

Came here this past Saturday night and the place was a little busy. But we were seated right away and they took our drink order. We ordered Sol chavelas first, then the food, enchiladas suizas, a campechana and tacos, one each of asada, pastor, chorizo and birria(goat). The tacos would be the only thing I recommend, especially the birria taco. They served them with hand made tortillas, a side of onions and cilantro to fix them up how you like and plenty of meat. The flavor of the birria was really good and flavorful. The rest of the food was ok. The service was good. Would come back to try other dishes but definitely be back for the Birria tacos. read more

Came here with fam from San Jose (I'm from out of town)... Overall good experience. I had the birria de chivo en caldo, really good. tortillas were bomb... also had an order of uchepos (corn tamal) bomb... we also ordered tacos de pastor cause they were recommended on yelp (way overrated)... the service was good but they are understaffed. we waited for a while to be attended too.... read more

Authentic ... the tortillas are handmade, served hot, and delicious! The chile relleno had great flavor with a little bite, did not skimp on cheese in the enchilada ... and the service was great!! We were attending another event near by, stumbled onto the place and were not disappointed. Clearly a neighborhood favorite. Do have to say that I never been to a place like this that didn't serve iced tea ... but the horchata was a great substitute. read more

Absolutely non existent service, but the food is good and the prices are decent. There was literally just two other people in the restaurant when I went with the SO for a few beers and guac. Ended up getting enchiladas suizas (good!) as well and the portion of guac was hearty and very tasty. I was disappointed that even though there was only three dining parties (a total of 6 people, me and the SO included) I had to repeatedly get up and ask for more beer and lemons and stuff. Like, the only time I saw the waitress was when she delivered my food and when I ordered it. Need another beer? Get up. Need an extra place setting? Get up. Water? Get. Up. *egh* I came to relax, not do a server's job. read more

I usually don't give bad reviews because I like to give people the benefit of the doubt but today I was just extremely disappointed. My boyfriend and I come to this restaurant pretty often and always get the same order. Today we put our order in like usual and it went something like this... 1.) I ordered a small plate of rice for my daughter and it comes back cold and some pieces were too hard meaning it was probably sitting around and they just reheated it and served it. 2.) they give my bf a wrong order. we kindly tell them and the waitress came with an attitude saying "give me the plate". EXCUSE ME!? 3.) when they do finally bring the right plate out, it's missing items. He ordered the camarones mariachi which come with white rice, a side of salad and some oranges. We get a plate of rice and burnt ass shrimp. Im obviously annoyed so we don't say anything at this point cause my bf's really hungry. When I go pay, I ask if it would be possible to get a small discount on that plate since it was wrong the first time they brough it out and the second time it was missing a side. The waitress says "well let me tell the OWNER since he's the one who cooked it" didn't even let me finish speaking when she started walking away. Comes back and says "The OWNER said he'll give you the orange if that's what your complaining about but he isn't gonna give you a discount." At this point i'm livid. I tell her "you guys can't get the order right and when you do you cant even cook it right either?" tells me the plate doesnt come with a salad and i'm annoyed bc I've clearly been there numerous times and always get that dish, how are you gonna tell me what I eat? It's really sad how rude and careless the waitress AND THE OWNER HIMSELF handled this situation. Not once did they apologize for the mess up or inconvenience but instead the owner mocked me. Definitely not going to be coming here again. Fuck the rude ass owner and the rude ass waitress. If I could give this review 0 stars I WOULD!!!!! read more

Great authentic Mexican homemade food, with my favorite homemade tortillas and Birria, fast and efficient service, try more of their many menu dishes. read more

Food is really good the only bad thing is the service I placed my order and the waiter brought my food after an hour.

I love this place!!! Everything about it is awesome the staff, food and the delicious chavelas which cure the worst hangover . I always leave satisfied and the best thing is I live 3 blocks away read more

We had the mariachi shrimp (bacon wrapped, stuffed with cheese and chile) as well as the shrimp empanada, a shrimp tostada, and a shrimp chavela! It was a shrimp fiesta :) the food was all very good. The shrimp chavela was my favorite. The waitress was having issues with the computer so they comped our meal! Overall great service, I will be back soon. read more

Solid mexican food in this plaza. Much better than taco mania, that's for sure. The burrito mojado definitely hits the spot. Perfectly packed with meat and the red sauce really compliments the burrito. The regular burrito is ok and the Carne Asada plate is also alright. I like this place and have been treated with good service. Definitely come back. read more

I called on Friday to placed an order. And they say to pick up in 15-20 min. I drove from Gilroy took me 28 min to get there. To find out they haven't even started my order read more

Great service very delicious Food nd drinks it's a beautiful family Restaurant. Planning on Going back very soon.

Horrible customer service. Came here on a Sunday, it wasn't too busy. The waitress took over 20 min to take our drink order and bring them to the table. Finally when she took our food order and after an hour just to get our food (which wasn't that great), the waitress also wrote down the wrong order and told us it would take a while to place the order again! Now I would understand if the restaurant was packed on a Sunday night and being short staffed, but neither was the case. The waitress was very inattentive and unconcerned with how long our wait time was by not bothering to check in on us or to even take responsibility for taking down the wrong order, let alone offer to make things right for her mistake. Definitely not coming back to this establishment with such poor customer service. read more

Food was excellent, very authentic and the restaurant is family friendly. I liked that the menu had Spanish first and English second - and I felt like there were definitely more Spanish speaking clients there. There was limited staff that day, so the tables weren't bussed as quickly as I'd usually like - but the food and kind service was worth it. read more

Me and my friend wanted some Mexican food, we found this place by her house. This was one pf the best Mexican places I found in San Jose. Our waitress was super nice and checked on us a lot. Food was GREAT! Definitely a repeat if I'm back in the area read more

Horrible service. Restaurant is self-seating but there is no sign indicating that, people are walking in looking around for several minutes until they realize you must seat yourself. Waiters and waitress are not friendly or interested in customer service as they are also cashiers and busers. Took over 20 minutes for our order to be taken and 30 minutes to receive our food. Food was mediocre at best. read more
