Sol Food Petaluma - Puerto Rican Near Me - Petaluma, California

I have had their food twice and it's been a delight to stop by at this location. I had went to an event in San Francisco and the company catered the food from Sol Food and I was wondering why did they cater from so far away? Well I just gotta say, the Rotisserie chicken is just out of this world! Yummy in my tummy! Oh yeah! And being in person with the atmosphere and seeing the chicken there in the kitchen just made it even more special and tasty and did the say good customer service as well even though they are busy? This location inside is like a warehouse setting gray with long communal seating or some tables scattered. There are also seating outside the plaza in the back with a shared fountain out in plaza. I could just sit and lounge outside as it's so relaxing on a nice warm afternoon. So for first timers be sure to order the chicken. Yummy. As the summary online states it has delicious and flavorful Puerto Rican food, with popular dishes like Pollo Rostizado, Bistec encebollado, and Cubano sandwiches. The portion sizes and the reasonable prices for the quality and quantity of food is nice. Guests mention the lively atmosphere, the clean dining areas, and the friendly, attentive staff. This is definitely worth a stop by or if you in rush, order to go! I promise you won't be disappointed. read more

Sol Food Petaluma - Puerto Rican Near Me - Petaluma, California

"I left my soul...near downtown Petaluma....high on a hill, it calls to me..." Okay Tony Bennett this location of Sol Food may be no where near San Francisco, try as they might, or a hill, but it is centrally located near Sonoma wine country, which makes it the perfect place to grab a quick bite there or for the road with a meal filled with authentic Latin cuisine with a true emphasis in Puerto Rican cuisine. Open for over four years since 2022, this location of Sol Food is symbolic of the success that founders and owners Marisol "Sol" Hernandez and her husband, Victor Cielo have found themselves in ever since they opened back in 2004 with their first brick and mortar location in downtown San Rafael after being such a success with their Farmers Market stand. After a second location opened in Mill Valley, many other cities have been clamoring for Sol Food to open in their neck of the woods with no such luck, but somehow Petaluma got lucky as the perfect confluence of factors presented themselves with this huge location in a still relatively new complex that previously hosted Sauced BBQ for a number of years. This location along Petaluma Boulevard South and D Street is perfect for both locals and out-of-towners to make a beeline for their third location. What brought me here finally was the fact that I was in town to meet a friend, but somehow managed to get in the area so early that I thought to myself what if I finally get to this location of Sol Food and order some food to take home, but also casually nosh on a little bit of my order beforehand? Parking along Petaluma Boulevard South was surprisingly easy, as I think I got here early enough to find enough decent parking available. When I arrived at Sol Food they had a decent amount of customers sitting inside their dining room, but they were not filled to maximum capacity. The takeout ordering counter is actually located towards the rear of the restaurant towards the inner courtyard where they have additional outdoor seating. With a fast-casual kind of vibe where visitors can order from a kiosk screen, everything was super orderly at this vast location. The menu at Sol Food is separated into categories including Desayuno (Breakfast); Caldos, Sopas y Guisos (Soups, Stews & Broths; Combinacions (Combinations); Sandwiches, with a majority served on French Roll; Ensaladas Frías (Cold Salads); Ensaladas Calientes (Hot Salads); Plátanos y Cosas Fritas (Plantains & Fried Thangs); A La Carta and Sides; Postres (Desserts); Refrescos (Beverages); and Café (Espresso Drinks). With this big of a menu, obviously there is a lot to choose from. Since I have been to their San Rafael location, and having the knowledge that Sol Food is famous for their Pollo Al Horno which is their signature baked chicken thighs, I decided to gear my appetite towards the sandwich section of their menu, and their Sándwich De Pollo which was made with baked chicken, ham, sautéed onions, Swiss cheese, tomatoes, organic greens, and spread with cilantro-lime mayonnaise was calling my name. After clicking through my lunchtime order with my sandwich, there were additional items on their Specials of the Day section of their menu that I didn't even know existed and their Spicy Coconutty Stew, that had the benefit of being served with cooked shrimp at an additional cost, of which I passed on, sounded appetizing thanks to the spicy and coconutty broth that was topped with fresh cilantro. Served with steamed rice and their deep fried plantains on the side. This dish put the spice in a spicy Puerto Rican inspired meal! My total bill was $29.66 before gratuity was added in, which made for a rather moderately priced lunchtime meal considering how much food I was about to get in my brown paper bag. It wouldn't take too long for my food to be brought to where I was patiently sitting along a small counter with stools that seemed made for people waiting to pick up their orders. I could not resist and I decided to eat half of my chicken sandwich right there outside in their courtyard area and I was not disappointed as it was juicy, flavorful and piping hot with every bite. I took a few spoonfuls of my stew and it too was a real tasty winner and upon returning home and reheated this daily special menu item was just as flavorful when I first tasted it earlier. I am so glad I not only got the opportunity to try the wonderful dishes at Sol Food Petaluma finally, but even with them opening here with this prime location, I now have a spot to make a brief stop to get all my favorite savory dishes ordered in quick succession. "When I come home to you, Sol Food Petaluma, your golden sun will shine for me..." never sung so true when visiting Sol Food Petaluma! read more

This is the Petaluma location of Sol Food. The menu is so extensive that it's hard to make a decision! They even have multiple soups of the day. The chicken star logo can be easy to miss, but you won't be able to miss the line of people waiting to be seated! You order and pay first, then bring the number to your table. The server helps you find a table, so don't worry about securing one while your group is waiting in line. SERVERS ARE SO NICE. -Bistec sandwich $14.95 is a good first-timer choice. The sweet plantain may be overpowering though. -Camarones criollos $15.95 had good flavor. Good to share with good portion size of shrimp. -Bistec encebollado $16.45 was a piece of steak that was thin. Ask for the sauces that aren't on the table. The habanero one is good. Parking structure two blocks away is free. read more

A chain restaurant specializing in Puerto Rican food. I've had a Cuban sandwich and an order of happy hours papa's fritas. Both were good and filling. Decent prices. 4 stars bc they have 2 entrances and 2 registers one for dine in and one for take out, I accidentally ordered take out at the dine in register (how was I supposed to know?) And they made a big deal out of it. Also no true kids menu. You can order sides for small eaters. read more

I can't tell you how glad I am that this place exists. I have been coming to this location of Sol Food since they opened a few years ago. I love the location and how spacious it feels. I love the large, communal tables. I love the servers who work here, who all seem like they really love working there. The food is consistently excellent and affordable. Plus, their house made hot vinegar sauce is probably my favorite hot sauce in the world and I put it on everything. I almost always get their Pollo al horno. My wife and I share a plate of 3 piece chicken with pink beans and both sweet and savory plantains. Sometimes I'll also get their camarones which are also delicious. I can't say enough great things about this place. It is amazing! read more

Both my daughters love Sol Food. I've been to the newer San Rafael location a few times over the years. I think I enjoyed Sol Food the most was when it first started on the corner of 4th and Lincoln. The shop was very small - maybe 3 seats. Anyway... I've wanted to like Sol Food more than I do. I think the problem is that I order the wrong thing. My two favorite items are the bistec sandwich and the veggie sandwich. The plantain chips with the sauce is good also. I will continue to go back since my kids like it and I will hope that my review can improve. read more

Pretty solid overall, but nothing mind blowing. Ordered the 2 piece pollo al horno $23, costillos combo $17, tostones con queso $9.50. Quality food, good portions, somewhat healthy. The tostones con queso was highly recommended by the cashier but it was nothing special and I regretted ordering it since my other dish already had tostones. It's an order at the register, grab a number, and they will bring your food to you type of place. Open seating with indoor and outdoor tables. Nice open space read more

I came here with friends following a cheese tour at a local dairy farm. We were looking for a place that had veggie options and this seemed to fit the bill while also catering well to the meat eaters in our group. We came by for lunch. It was very busy but they were quick to seat us, even though it wasn't the most comfortable seating. Food got to us very quickly, within 15 minutes. It was a big space and had lots of people. Very buzzy and a pretty fun place to eat -- the decor was amazing! My partner and I ordered the Vegetariano, Tostones Mojo (I think), and the Coconut Stew. First, the coconut stew was DELICIOUS. Definitely get this. Really flavorful and not too spicy at all! The Vegetariano and the tostones were good, but nothing amazing. The Vegetariano was a lot of food and came with fries. We liked everything here. The salad was amazing as well, the dressing was great! The beans, rice, and avocado were all delicious as well. I think the tostones were fine, not too flavorful (even the Tostones Mojo). Would recommend! read more

I mostly door dashed the food from here and it was always so satisfying. I came in tonight and found out that they have Happy Hour Monday to Friday from 2 pm to 5:30 pm. 50% wine all day Tuesday! The service was great dining in. You ordered at the counter first and find a table. The staff will bring you the food to your table. I love their chili sauce. It goes well with everything. My favorite is chicken with rice and garlic plantain! I can never get tired of it! The coco-mango smoothie is so good. Feels very refreshing and not overly sweet. read more

I've been to Sol Food in San Rafael three times and really enjoyed it so I was expecting to like my lunch in Petaluma today. Sadly I was mistaken. I don't know what happened but this was nothing like I remembered. I got the same dish every time . I got the chicken with fried plantains, rice, beans snd salad.the chicken was utterly boring with bits of fat that were very unappetizing. The plantains were not sweet at all and the whole thing was bad. My husband ordered salad with shrimp and he didn't like it either. We were both disappointed. We went right about noon ( on a Friday) and there was no line and the place was pretty empty the whole time we were there, If we ever go back at all we'll go to San Rafael but not here. The people working there were very friendly and the communal tables are fun. But I don't know what's going on in the kitchen.! read more

The service is hard to comment on because you pay at the counter and they bring you your food so you're on your own from there. The ambiance is lively with lots of space indoors and outside in the back. Although I came on a date I noticed it was great for families and kids. The pork chop was good, it tasted like good quality meat but it lacking in spice & herbs Or marinate. It was good but it tasted like plain pork. Same with the Bistec it was underwhelming not the most flavor blast in my mouth but it was good quality. The rice was salted very well & the beans were good and sweet plantain was good. I really enjoyed the mango orange iced tea and the fries were perfectly crisp. I think I was more impressed with the French fries & drink than the meat idk what that says about me. But I think there's lots to try on the menu I will be back read more

Can't believe I waiting this long to try Sol Food. The pork ribs with the hot pepper sauce is amazing. The combo plate comes with a bed of rice, beans, salad, and 2 plantains (1 sweet, 1 savory). The ribs and chicken is what they're known for so that's definitely what I'll always be ordering! The indoor is spacious and clean. It feels like you were transported to a new place. The staff is very friendly and makes sure you're well taken care of. We got our food in less than 15 minutes, even with the busy crowd. Can't wait to come back! read more

Sol Food Petaluma - Rotisserie Pork Ribs - Puerto Rican Near Me - Petaluma, California

Im so glad they opened a Sol Food here in Petaluma. It's in downtown so parking can be tricky during the weekends. You have to order first, then find a table, and they bring the food out to you. Their pollo al horno is delicious. The chicken is very tender and seasoned well, and I love dipping it in the pique sauce and eat it with their rice and pink beans. I'm a huge fan of tostones so I am glad they have it as an appetizer with cheese and you can add avocado or tomatoes. Their sandwiches are also really good, especially the busted and the Cubano. I just realized they also serve breakfast. Their coconut latte is to die for- I usually get it iced. I rotated between the sol stack (tostones with beans, eggs, avocado) or the PR hash (rice topped with ground beef and eggs). It can get pretty busy during the weekends or dinner around prime time, so just be aware of that. read more

Since my review was taken down for what ever the reason My recent experience here was extremely disappointing. The Cubano sandwich was poorly made--only one piece of ham and barely any filling overall. It was mostly bread, which is unacceptable for something that's supposed to be a hearty sandwich. The service was mediocre at best, but what stood out in a negative way was the management. The supervisor with black and red hair was rude, condescending, and frankly offensive in the way he spoke to me. That kind of behavior has no place in a customer-facing role. To make matters worse, another employee with tattoos on his arms walked around in a way that felt intimidating, as if he was looking to start a conflict. It created an uncomfortable atmosphere that no customer should have to deal with. If this is the standard of service and professionalism here, I won't be returning. Negative stars if I could. read more

Honestly, I really don't think it gets better than this in terms of quality, flavor, and satisfaction for your dollar than Sol Food. When they were only in San Rafael, I would gladly drive down for their delicious versions of plantains, incredible coconut flan, and fresh dishes that never disappoint. When they opened a second location in Petaluma, I was and continue to be, totally thrilled. Everything on the menu is good, but my favorite is the vegetarian combo with sweet plantains. A glass of ponche on the side just ties everything together, and the coconut flan is the chefs kiss to the meal's conclusion. Their house made spicy vinegar is meant for everything - I literally put it on the beans, rice, plantains, avocado, even the salad! It's so delicious, I always have one or two bottles at home too While I love the food here, there are some downsides. The first is the acoustics inside - it's massive and echoes hardcore. If you want a conversation you'll have to go when it's dead or sit outside. Secondly the parking situation is pretty rough if you want to park on the street, you may have to wait a long time. Overall though, this really is such a delicious, filling, nutritious and flavorful restaurant. I never leave regretting my choice to dine here, and I can't say that about almost anywhere else anywhere! read more

A classic go-to lunch spot! When I heard they were opening a Sol Food in Petaluma, I was ecstatic. It somehow took me this long to actually get there! I was not let down. The bright spacious interior has such a nice airy vibe, and I love the outdoor patio in Theatre Square. The service was great, I had a lovely conversation with the girl at the counter. She recommended me the Bistec Sandwich, so I ordered it. It didn't take long at all for the food to arrive! The sandwich was huge and it was soo delicious! It's a French roll with thinly sliced steak, sautéed onion, Swiss cheese, avocado, and pink mayo. The avocado was ripe and the steak was tender. I ordered the side salad as well, which I thoroughly enjoyed. It was not overdressed, and was a perfect pairing for a warm day. If you haven't already visited this location, get there ASAP! read more

Sol Food Petaluma - Puerto Rican Near Me - Petaluma, California

Out of the three Sol Food locations in the Bay, the Petaluma location is easily the nicest location. It's not only the most spacious -- with plenty of seating both indoor and outdoor, but parking is also very easy to find in the parking structure a block down from the restaurant. My wife and I ordered their grilled pork chop (chuletas fritas) along with a side of pressed, fried plantains (tostones con mojo) to share. The bone in pork chop is super thin, so it does get a little dried out after it's pan fried. The included black beans run a bit salty, but they're more manageable when you combine it with the rice. Overall a good dish, but it's not large enough for two to share -- you'll definitely want your own entree. What caught me off guard is the wacky pricing. You can get a pork chop platter with one piece of protein for around $15.95 but to get an additional pork chop, it's going to cost you $28.95? $13 for a thin piece of pork chop is robbery. Even more absurd is if you order shrimp as your protein. The difference between 3 pieces of shrimp versus 6 pieces is also $13. Even by Bay Area standards, $4.33 for a single shrimp is a bit ridiculous. Overall, Sol Foods is a great spot to have lunch if you're stopping by the Petaluma Downtown area. Just be mindful of menu prices before you stop by so you can do a bit of planning beforehand. read more

Walking in the ambience feels like your transferred to Puerto Rico. When placing your order you agreed by friendly staff and are giving a number to when, then you can take a seat anywhere in the restaurant. After we were seated or drinks were served to us the cocoa mango smoothie was one of the best I've had definitely would re-order! Shortly after our meal was brought out and was fantastic. Once we were finished, the manager came around asking if we would like a complementary order of chicken wings, which I could not resist the wings were nicely cooked and tasted delicious with the sauce. An amazing experience for a date night or just a regular dinner definitely will be back. read more

Sol Food is one of my favorites- you can't miss it especially if you're visiting from out of town! This Petaluma location particularly is lovely as well. They have plenty of both indoor and outdoor seating,. I really love that soul food offers great portions and fresh ingredients all at unbeatable prices. I have never had a single disappointing meal here, and I've eaten here dozens of times. My favorite is the fresh organic chicken and salad, and of course the fried plantains as well - I can never decide which is better between the Tostones and the Maduros, so I happily will take both! PS - their orange juice is so fresh and amazing. Now I am craving more Sol Food just writing this review! read more

So they only sell the fried fish on Fridays. But if you are a seafood person, it is so freaking fresh and good. The actual fish is super flavorful and you can always ask for a lemon on the side to eat it. I have made it a thing to come here on Fridays when I do decide to go to soul food because this is our special of the day and I think it is just that good. Of course you have to get their ponche which is also a 10 out of 10. Anyways, I thought I would update this review to let everyone know that they should try the fried fish special. Service was pretty OK. This last time I went the server kind of forgot to bring something to us so we had to ask somebody else for it. However, the ambience is always super mellow and chill. We ended up having a sit next to other random people and it was OK. We made casual conversation. The food here however never disappoints it. It's so good. read more

Solid food, massive portions! Got the small ensalada de pollo and it was definitely at least the size of a regular portion I'd expect at other restaurants. Chicken was tender and seasoned pretty well. Also tried the fried plaintain which was really good. Casual dining but really fun decor inside the restaurant! Napkins are held down by a massive plantain. You order at the counter when you enter then grab a number and sit down, where they'll deliver your food. Would return to try more of the meat options! read more

Highly recommend! I've been to the Sol Food in San Rafael and was pleasantly surprised to see a location while I was visiting in Petaluma. The decor is boho and trendy! They have communal(?) seating so you most likely will be seated at the same table as another group of guests or the bar for faster service. We had 3 adults and 2 toddlers. The service was quick and attentive; the host was so nice and communicative to get our group seated as soon as possible. (It was about a 15 minute wait around 6pm on Saturday). There's both indoor and some outdoor seating. When the table was ready, we went up to the cashier to place our order before getting seated. The menu is pretty big with lots of options! We got the Camarones Criollos ($28.95 for 6 pieces of saucy creole prawns) and the Pollo al Horno ($22.95 for 2 pieces of chicken thighs). They come with rice, side salad, and you get to pick between plantains (sweet or garlic) or fries. You get 2 plantains and I recommend doing 1 of each sweet + garlic. The dish also comes with beans or avocado. The portion is on the more generous side though it seems a bit pricey for the meat/if you want more pieces. Everything was so tasty, juicy, and full of flavor! Side note - I'd come back and try things a la carte to make my own entree. Also had the Té Helado (Orange-mango iced tea) which was not too sweet and refreshing and a beer. Total was about $70ish which is not bad for two entrees and drinks. We walked here but I believe there's only street parking. Come here for some great Puerto Rican food! read more

Portions are large and in charge. The space is big and bright at this fast casual spot. The menu is 2 sided and options for everyone. I went with a huge chicken salad salad and I was hungry and ate it all up. It was solid. A heaping portion of chicken salad on dressed greens, a half of an avocado and some tomatoes. They have a happy hour of both food and drink and the crispy chicken tacos were a nice crunch side to the salad. Overall a solid spot for a fast casual meal. read more

The tostadas and bistec cebollada were both delicious. The hot sauce is also really good.

Hoping for fewer crowds, we stopped by well after the noon hour to celebrate two birthdays. This was a very memorable meal last year and we've been wanting to come back for a repeat performance. We ordered at the counter, grabbed our number, and went to sit at a table near the bar. We ordered four combo plates. These combo plates came with salad, white rice, choice of pink or black beans and either fries or plantains. 3 Pollo al Horno with 2 pieces of chicken each Costillas de Cerdo - Rotisserie pork ribs Our meals were good. The chicken seemed less moist than the last time we dined here but it was still very good and tender. The pork ribs were juicy and flavorful. I wish I could get the recipe for their black beans as they are the best. Their pique sauce on the table is delicious. I put it on my rice and chicken and really enjoyed the added flavor with a touch of spicy. We arrived at a good time but I could see that there were waves of people coming through for a late lunch. It's a fun atmosphere with friendly, helpful staff. I have fond memories whenever I think of this place. read more

Amazing!! This is my second experience to Solfood and my first to the Petaluma location. I went just before the dinner crowd on a Friday evening and during their happy hour. This place can get real busy so do expect to wait during peak times. Happy hour is Monday thru Friday 2-530 pm excluding holidays. From the happy hour menu I ordered baked chicken wings. Our party ordered the pollo al horno and chulita frita along with the ponche and limonada Fresca. Both the beverages were refreshing. Their smoothies are just as good! The combo plates include rice, salad, choice of black or pink beans (both are delicious) and your choice of fries or plantain. They make their own dressing that you can also buy a bottle or two to take home. For dessert this visit (oops we dug in before taking a pic) we had the tembleque and the flan. Their pudin de pina is also very good and I am not generally a fan of bread pudding. Beyond the food, the service was excellent, very attentive staff, and the restaurant was clean and a whole lotta great vibes! So come hungry, expect a line, and indulge in great Puerto Rican food. read more

I've been to Sol Food multiple times, and I could never fully decide between a 4 or 5 star review. Well, during my last dine-in visit, I finally settled on 4 stars. I usually order COSTILLAS DE CERDO - rotisserie pork ribs. The first time I had them, they were perfect, but every time after that, they were dry, which wasn't very pleasant. I also tried a sandwich (I don't remember which one), and it was great! Their Pique Sauce is amazing! I put it on everything: rice, salad, ribs. The portions are very big, which I love. I always get full before finishing my food. The staff is friendly, and the restaurant has plenty of seating, both indoors and outdoors. The outdoor seating is especially nice on hot days. Maybe from now on, I'll stick with sandwiches, since ordering the pork ribs feels a little too risky. read more

One of my favorite restaurants in Sonoma county for sure!! I just realized they offer happy hour! I'm so excited about that! The food is always so good! Got my taste buds dancing every time. I've tried many things on the menu. It's hard to say what is my favorite dish. I absolutely love the pollo al horno, with sweet plantains and black beans. I love the chuletta dish (fried pork chop) and the bistec sandwich is always a hit!! Once I order the pork chop sandwich and added a fried egg! It's was so good. Chefs kiss!! The service is always pleasant. And I love how big the restaurant is. They offer outside seating too! Such a beautiful Location. read more

Food was delicious. We both ordered the ground beef over rice dish with a cup of beans, green salad and either French fries or fried plantains. The dish was flavorful and fresh and the servings were generous. I had enough left overs for my dinner later that evening. Because it was still morning we both enjoyed iced lattees with our meals. Service was 5 star all the way. From the prompt greeting we received upon arrival to the friendly and helpful hostess who chatted with us, I was impressed. You do pre-order and pay, then your food is brought to your table. The servers were friendly and checked in on us often with out being intrusive. We were served on glass plates but were brought paper to go containers for our leftovers. Finally the ambiance was so wonderful here. Spacious, open and modern restaurant with plenty of seating. Either communal style tables or smaller round tables to enjoy your meal with your friends or family. Lots of greenery was displayed along with Cuban /Latin music playing made it feel completely authentic and a cool environment to dine in. I loved how you could see the open kitchen and even enjoyed watching the employees eating their meals on their mid morning break. Everyone was neatly dressed in white shirts and black pants. Small details like this make for an esthetically pleasing experience . I highly recommend this Puerto Rican dining establishment. read more
