Cantina Del Sol - Albany

What a wonderful addition to the street! We had been going to a cozy Mexican restaurant on Solano for ages. We thought we’d try their happy hour, and we were pleasantly surprised by the drinks and snacks. I typically find happy hour tacos to be lackluster, but these carnitas tacos were packed with flavor and absolutely delicious. We ordered tacos, chips and salsa, and queso dip, and with a couple of beers, our total was under $25. It was a fantastic deal!

I visited for brunch and was pleased with the extensive menu. The food was delicious, and I was really looking forward to it.

We will definitely be returning! While there are a few areas that still need improvement—such as the service, food presentation, ambiance, and drink options—it's surprising that these issues didn’t detract from our overall experience. The food was delicious, and they served complimentary homemade tortilla chips and salsa, which were fantastic. However, we felt that the salad could use a bit more dressing, so if you’re like me and enjoy your salads well-dressed, be sure to request extra! Personally, I found the black beans much tastier than the pinto beans, but that’s purely a matter of personal preference.

Delicious food, spicy salsa and great drinks. So happy we tried this place!

The chips and guacamole were delicious. I ordered the the enchilada and taco combination, and really enjoyed it. The Cadillac margarita was so so. This time i gavr it 4 stars. I returned 2 weeks after my first review and had a really delicious beef taco and veggie enchilada, and also the strawberry margarita. Everything was spot on, and this time around they deserve 5 stars.
