Palo Alto Sol

This is a great Mexican place to dine on California Street. With that street closed for Al fresco dining, there are plenty of parking spots available in the adjacent streets with a free parking garage as well. I went there with my family on a Thursday evening for dinner. The place was relatively full and it was easy to get a table. We got ourselves Chicken Chalupas, Enchiladas Al Chipotle with chicken and Camarones a la diabla. The delivery was quite fast with the chalupas arriving within 10 minutes. There were 3 chalupas there and each tasted unique in its own flavor. The enchiladas were usual as I would expect them to be with chipotle sauce. The highlight of the dinner was the Shrimp dish with quite a kick of spicyness. For people with less interest in spicy food, this dish might not be for you. However, I liked it a lot and tasted quite unlike anything I have tried in Mexican cuisine. Overall, this place is a must try and we had great experience dining here.

This Mexican place is actually pretty good! Chips and salsa are good, nachos are good, and quesadillas are good. I give this place a 4 star because I think they could've done better with the tacos. I got 2 tacos and although the toppings were fine, I dont like when the tortillas on a taco are flimsy and break apart. I want a sturdy taco that holds together. The restaurant has hard working employees however and it's a good environment. 4/5

Such a hidden gem on the California Avenue. Absolutely love the outdoor seating vibes here! The food and drinks are top-notch, and the street views at night make the experience even better. Authentic flavors and great atmosphere. Looking forward to coming back soon!

Has anyone had hardly fried tortillas chips? Not here! Had complementary, nicely fried and crispy chips! Slightly expensive but big portions. Recommend this place for good Mexican food and ambiance! This photo is for Tostada with Chicken.

Today was our first visit to this restaurant, and both my family and I were amazed not only by the delicious dishes served, but also by the excellent service. Our host, Mr. Vicente, was very professional , respectful, and with great patience and kindness, recommended menus that truly delighted our palate with the Mexican flavor. The ambiance outside was maintained with warm lights, surrounded by a typical Friday night in Palo Alto. We will definitely return to this restaurant, which we recommend 10/10. Thanks to everyone who gently attended our dinner and congratulations to the chef.

This gem is alongside many other restaurants, but you've got to stop in! Family recipes, sauces that are all flavor, and beautifully balanced sides await! I highly recommend the enchiladas El Sol. The margaritas are delish, but you can also try tequila flights or sangria. Nothing but homemade wonderfulness here.

Lovely place for dinner, outdoor seating on patio to accommodate family and dog. Mole poblano with chicken is simply amazing. Vegetarian enchiladas are also nice. Fantastic selection of authentic margaritasmade it a fun evening.
