    Chef Denise is on fire with her summer offerings! I have to say, I was wary but curious enough to try the beet filled ravioli - genius dish! Loved it and would suggest trying it as an appetizer for the table. Service was excellent. We never had to search for our server and observed how the staff helped each other whether clearing your plates, or asking if they could get you anything. You could tell they truly are a team. A great evening all the way around and will be back soon!

    Food was great. Only reason it wasn't 5 stars all around was because it was a little loud inside. It was hard to hear my husband talking across the table. The desserts were delicious too.

    I'd just like to say what a pleasant surprise it was to find such an exceptional restaurant like Solare. But equally as great as the food was our waitress Kareen. She was especially friendly, upbeat & knowledgeable about the menu. She also kept up very well with a demanding dinner session as we never felt forgotten. But again, the food was outstanding and we can't wait to go back!

    We love Solare! It’s great to have a Michelin Guide restaurant in our neighborhood. We keep coming back. Service is wonderful; food is always delish!!; and prices are reasonable. Plus, we went on Wednesday discount wine night, so a bonus!
