Sol Food

This place is amazing! The sandwiches, especially the bistec and cubano, are the most famous items, but the main dishes also shine in this restaurant. The portions are generous, and the drinks are very tropical and fun. They don't serve alcohol, but it's not needed because the food itself is the main highlight here. I loved the gluten-free option for the sandwich; it was a clever twist, rather than using bread, they serve the sandwich between two tostones. I would rate it a 10/10!

If you like Puerto Rican Food, run so not walk to go try Sol Food in San Rafael. We loved it so much we have already set up visits with family over the next 3 months. I can go in and try every single dish for a year if I could. If you go. Get the ribs and thank me later. The Cubano was also really good. Though not filling, so the appetizers helped seal the deal. My wife got half a chicken, and it really was half a chicken. Which was even good the day after for the leftovers. What we liked was that all the food could be ordered gluten free (not the cubano) and especially the breaded shrimp which was made with Plantains! It was a nice location, but the seating was little weird given that you could sit with other people if you did not fill up the space. Which given the way communities function it is expected, but not if you walk in thinking to have an intimate meal.
