I’ve stopped by SOL in Newport Beach a few times to charge my car, but this was my first time actually sitting down for a meal. The space is bright with good lighting, and the restaurant has a paid parking garage. If you have a Tesla and the code, the first 45 minutes are free, which makes it really convenient.
The food was decent overall. I ordered the Mexx Chop Salad, which was big and filling. Chips and salsa were complimentary, and the red salsa was the standout for me. The chips were thin, fresh, and crisp. I also tried the carne asada tacos. They were okay, not amazing, but still enjoyable.
Service was friendly, the environment felt relaxed, and the convenience of being able to charge while eating is a big plus. I’d give it a solid 4 out of 5 and would come back again.

We wanted to try out this new Sol. The food was contemporary Mexican , creative and good but didn’t knock my socks off overall.
1. Cadillac margarita: 4/5 – very smooth and right sweetness, nice flavor. Personally I could use abit more lime juice. Still very good.
2. Blackberry ginger margarita: 3.5/5 – good, refreshing with gingery flavor and taste.
3. Pineapple Serrano margarita: 4/5 – another refreshing margarita, not too spicy, Pineapple was subtle. I would order it again.
4. Guacamole Sol 4/5 – pretty good and creative with toppings. Fun.
5. Mexx chopped salad: 3/5 – good but could use abit more acidity or cilantro dressing vs “avocado Caesar” dressing cuz it got lost for me. Not much flavored. We waited quite abit for salad … it ended coming out the same time with our entrees…
6. Goat cheese enchiladas: 3/5 – was ok for me. Sauce was not robust and the end of enchilada was hard like carton board. Glad my hubby added carne asada to give flavors.
7. Chile relleno: 3/5 – was good but not so special. I was glad to add grilled shrimp agave to give some protein and flavors.
Our server was great except the kitchen was behind for our salad so we chowed down salad and entrees the same time….
We haven’t been back to the Sol in Newport for a long time but my memory thinks the food there is more memorable than this one…
There is a 3.99% surcharge for worker health.

SOL Mexican Cocina has a great atmosphere and the food is flavorful, but the portions are on the smaller side. During my visit, a few menu items were also unavailable, which was a bit disappointing. They do validate parking, which is convenient, though we still ended up paying an additional $3. Overall, it’s a nice place with good vibes, but something to keep in mind before you go.

Second location of this local chain.
We had fun and eat way to much!
Order the fajitas Shrimp and steak. Just right amount of food. The chips and guacamole was excellent. Round tortilla chips as their table chips.

Had a great time dining at SOL Mexican Cocina in Irvine! The vibe is lively, the service is friendly, and the food definitely delivers.
We started with the chips and salsa — super fresh and flavorful, and the surprise addition of black beans made it even better. For drinks, the Paloma was a standout: refreshing, perfectly balanced, and dangerously smooth. The Margarita was a bit on the tart side, but a splash of agave made it just right.
Food-wise, the Viper Tacos lived up to their name — fiery but delicious! Chicken Fajitas were solid and satisfying, and the Calamari (served in fillets, not rings) was a nice twist — crispy and well-seasoned.
To top it off, they brought out a complimentary birthday dessert that was a sweet and thoughtful gesture. Great place for a fun night out with good food, bold flavors, and a bit of heat!

We came here for NYE dinner and were a large party of 15. Angel was our server and he went above and beyond to make sure everyone was well attended to and that all the food came out fresh and hot. The food was amazing and ambiance was great. We are so happy we came here on NYE and will definitely be back.

Loved everything about this place. My husband took me here for the first time for my birthday dinner and it did not disappoint. The service was excellent, the margaritas were on point & the food was top notch. We highly enjoyed our outing and will definitely be back soon.
