Sol Food - Petaluma (CA)

4 /5 Angela Courter: Vegetarian sandwich, bowl of lentil soup, and plantain chips all sharee with a friend and more than we could finish.. So delish. Service is great but it is counter ordering and then help yourself. They checked on us several times to make sure we were doing well. Lively atmosphere and we aat at the high top bar overlooking the kitchen. Fun to watch.

5 /5 pamazing: Loved the spacious outdoor patio at this location! Sol Food has been on our radar to try for a while and Im glad we came to the Petaluma one because of the dog-friendly outdoor seating and it being less busy during the day. We had brunch instead of opting for the dishes theyre known for - the chicken. But that just means well need to come back another time for lunch or dinner! The tostones under the benedicto were perfect and the ham was not too thick which is what I preferred. The pan frances was a huge amount and was also very good.

3 /5 Michael Lott: The Arroz con Pollo was a bargain. Great quality, flavor and price. The Cubano was very good. The pork was very good, the ham was sparse, the bread was the real star. Nose is a factor here. Its loud. Service was informed, fast and attentive.

5 /5 Suguitan Leonard (Len): Best part of our experience was the food! We ordered the Pollo Rostizado (whole chicken), large sides of the rice and the beans, sweet plantains, and Mofongo Relleno De Camerones (shrimp with mashed plantains & salad). All the dishes were very good! Party of 5, and it was enough for all of us. Spent about $110 before tip. The chicken was tender, moist, and very flavorful! I guess we couldve ordered the combo, but we wanted larger sides of beans and rice. My parents really enjoyed everything! They also appreciated that some of the food was soft, because it was gentle on their teeth. For example, the beans, plantains, and chicken were tender and it was easy to chew for them. I thought each dish complimented each other when all the items were on my plate. I really enjoyed the bottle of vinegar sauce on the table. I out it on my chicken, and it brought out the flavors even more. The seating can be difficult for larger parties, because the place is really busy on the weekends. I commend the workers for their efforts, because its such a busy environment, and they probably have so many requests from the patrons like we did, lol! The food is very good, and Id drive from San Francisco to the San Rafael location if I start to crave their food. The Petaluma location, however, is larger and newer. The decor is inviting and feels like were in a tropical location.
