    Bolt

    Absolutely unacceptable. Ordered the loaded nachos and found a bolt. Luckily I saw it before my family started eating the nachos. Had to throw them away just in case. Be careful ordering from here.

    Tom's Tailgate is our new go to for Mexican food. Generous portions of delicious food. Helpful friendly staff. Clean space. We love this place. I tell everyone. I'm walking around town in their merch like a billboard. Gotta have the chips and loaded nachos!

    Puffy tacos
    Alisha O.

    One of my favorite Mexican style restaurants. I always tell people about the massive amount of good you get and it's all so good ! This time I tried something new I got the puffy taco plate and they were really good and very filling. I will be back again.

    3 fried tortillas and a small jar of guacamole for $8.

    WTF?????? I have been coming here for years and couldn't be more disappointed. I wanted some chips and guacamole to watch the game and I got a little jar of guacamole and chips for $8. No mames guey. That's straight up robbery, how do you justify this price?

    Half Size Nacho
    Marc L.

    Have been a craving for a while. They offer lots of options from loaded fries, nachos, and other standard fare. They have also made changes inside with digital menu boards and a bar with several hi-top tables. I had the half order of nachos which is plenty. The chile verde and shredded beef with habanero salsa. Yum ! So why three stars you ask ? The service was slow. I am patient and understanding but when I see a suboptimal processes and then people standing while you have a customer line 15 deep. Well not good. My opinion they kind of need to define what experience they want customers to have. Maybe take the order and then run the orders to tables. I am glad they survived the pandemic and I like the quality, but just need to tighten up the experience.

    Welcome to Tom's Tailgate.

    The best nachos ever! Thank you Krishna, Vidya and Ian for introducing me to this place! My only wish is that I knew about Tom's Tailgate sooner. Pros 1. Nachos are loaded and just the way I like with all the fixings 2. Portions is huge 3. Fair pricing 4. Chips stay crispy even though all the toppings sit on top 5. And most importantly, the taste is supreme! Cons None

    Crazy good drink prices!!
    Andrew C.

    Are the beans vegan? Or what options are vegan friendly? thanks!!

    I didn't even consider to think beans other than "vegan" if you wanna lable them? I wouldn't know how beans wouldn't be? Are there beans that aren't vegan?

    Are there onions in the guacamole ? I'm dying to try their taquitos but I hate onions :(

    There didn’t appear to be onions in the guacamole when I was there a week ago

    Do they serve alcohol?

They were fresh, crunchy, with ample green tomatillo salsa that was flavorful, making for a very authentic bite. The beans were very good and complemented the chilaquiles perfectly. Authentic Mexican flavors showcased well. Service: The waitress was friendly, attentive, and joyfully answered my questions about the menu. I also asked about the traditional colorful head piece located behind glass next to the register and learned that it is a Chinelo, a traditional iconic carnival character from Morelos, Mexico. It is clear, the restaurant owners are proud of their heritage and are sharing it with everyone. Ambiance: The small but cozy restaurant features an incredibly vibrant, maximalist indoor garden vibe that immediately makes you feel like you are dining inside an enchanted greenhouse. Dense artificial greenery blankets the walls and ceiling. The cozy, casual neighborhood layout is packed with personality, featuring playful multicolored floral tablecloths, festive flags, and unique lived-in accents.

(See attached picture). This restaurant is in such an obscure location, I can't believe I was going to a Burrito Track across the street for so many years not knowing this place existed. Friendly staff and prompt service. The unfortunate negative is it's location and I'm referring to parking. There must be 8 business crammed into this lot. With a bar to the right and a laudermat on its left finding a parking spot is like winning the lotto. Now layer in one driveway and you have to make a 3 point turn just to navigate to leave. The short answer is I will absolutely go back to this place as long as there is a parking space to be had.

Their moles are definitely worth trying. We've had the mole negro and the mole pipián, and both were delicious. The mole negro is a little sweeter, while the pipián has more spice. They also serve tortilla chips with mole, which is something I haven't seen at most Mexican restaurants. The reason I can't give 5 stars is because the service has been hit or miss. We've been here three times. The first time was shortly after they opened. The food tasted decent but came out cold, and the service wasn't the best. It was during the week and not very busy, so we figured they were still working out the kinks of being a new restaurant. After some time, we decided to give them another try. We went on a busy Friday night and were seated right away. The service was much better and everything seemed to be running more smoothly. We talked with the owner who was working as well as his wife who was bartending. They were both really friendly, and the owner seemed genuinely happy that we came back after we told him about our first experience. He even gave my husband a free beer after we moved to the bar to keep drinking after we finished our meals to allow for other guests to dine at the table we were. There was also a trio playing that night which added to the ambiance and was a nice way to end the work week. Our most recent visit was a couple of weeks ago for my husband's birthday. It was during the week and once again they were short-staffed. There was only one waitress taking care of the entire restaurant. She was so sweet and hustling the whole time but she was also bartending while serving every table. We definitely had to pack our patience because she was doing the best she could. Overall, Sol 626 has so much potential to be a great spot. The food, drinks, and atmosphere are what keep bringing us back. They need a little more staffing so the service can be as good as everything else.

Even though the restaurant is small and busy, we were seated right away, which was a great start. Our waiter Washington, was fantastic, friendly, attentive, and made our whole experience even better. The atmosphere was perfect too. They had music playing at just the right volume and a big TV showing the live Dodger game, which the kids loved. We started with chips and salsa. The salsa had the perfect level of spice for everyone at the table. The kids ordered horchatas and were excited about the unlimited refills (something you don't always see at other restaurants!). The drinks for the adults were just as impressive. My wife's watermelon margarita on the rocks was perfectly made. It was not overly sweet or syrupy like at some places. Our friends had the "El Jefe" margaritas, and they definitely didn't skimp on the tequila! For dinner, everything was a hit. The kids loved their meals. Albóndigas soup, shrimp tacos, and street tacos--all served with rice and beans. The adult dishes were just as good. The carne asada arrachera was cooked perfectly, the chile verde was full of flavor, and my chicken mole was delicious with a great balance of spicy and sweet without being overwhelming. The portions were very generous, and everything came with rice, beans, and both corn and flour tortillas. The only small thing I would've preferred differently was the chicken in my mole. I personally would've liked a leg and thigh instead of sliced chicken breast but the dish was still very good overall. What really stood out was the hospitality. At the end of the meal, Washington offered us "holy water"-house tequila shots on the house--and it wasn't cheap tequila either! Then after the bill came, he surprised us again with another round of "holy water". That level of generosity and care really impressed us. We also learned that the restaurant has been there 20+ years and is family-run by him and his siblings, which made the experience feel even more personal. You can tell they have a loyal customer base--one couple even said, "See you tomorrow Washington!" The only feedback we'd offer (coming from a customer service background) is that we noticed a few guests waiting at the entrance without being greeted, and one couple actually left the restaurant. A simple "Welcome, we'll be right with you" would go a long way. That said, it didn't take away from our experience. Overall, amazing food, great service, generous portions, and a welcoming family atmosphere. We will definitely be back to try more of their menu!
