Sol Taqueria Albany Reviews
Great spot to come and watch the game! Excellent mix drinks and food! Back patio is the plus but if you more quick to come and go they have indoor seating.
Update 7/25/2025 Delivery: Had to try the tacos and burrito this time after a long work week. This time it was the Regular Burrito w/ Carne Asada, Tacos - Carne Asada and Pollo. Grilled just right. Not too dry or juicy. Ummm I'm weeping w/ pure joy. 7/2025 Dine-In: Super delicious breakfast. Breakfast burrito with potatoes, eggs, cheese was fantastic. Friend had the chilaquiles. Everything was hot, fresh, reasonably priced. Extra points for the salsa bar with fruit. Can’t wait to return. ps. I saw a super cool patio w/outside bar
I picked up a special order 3 speed bowinkle gangly wrench with all the factory attachments at the tool shop, and asked the guy there if the food next door, at Sol Taqueria was good. Any good, he yells..It's about the best in Crazy Town, just ask anyone! Well, since I was parked right in front of the joint, and had a great recommendation, I blasted in and had the most amazing pork tacos ever, but it was the refried beans that were out of bounds! They were extremely flavorful, creamy, and as smooth as smooth can get. Sol Taqueria is a 5 star experience! ☆☆☆☆☆
First time here- the service was excellent, portions were great and balanced, loved the patio with multiple screens! Will definitely be coming back.
Amazing food and service. Friendly staff and helpful when you walk in. Seems trivial but you don't see that everywhere anymore. Definitely will be coming back.
10/10! Great customer service and delicious food! Very nice staff. My boyfriend and I got the taco plate and it was delicious for a great price too!
Just stumbled here and got tacos. Their al pastor was good especially with the salsa on top. chips and salsa in the self serve were really delicious. I’ll come back for the orange salsa next time!
Very good food, clean atmosphere. I got the taco plate and it was delicious. I will be back!
Favorite new spot--delicious food and friendly staff. Chips, salsa, and fresh fruit free of charge! I can't think of an establishment more generous and welcoming. Happy taco tuesday!
Amazing food and a great vibe on the back patio. Staff was friendly and we loved our meal here. Will definitely come back!!
Free chips and salsa! The huarache is delicious and huge, definitely can be split with 2+ people. Staff is super friendly and restaurant is clean. There’s street parking and also a shopping center lot across the street. Coming back for sure
Easily the best Mexican spot in Berkeley! Excellent food, wonderful service and a great atmosphere (especially in their back patio). We got a bowl with a generous serving of fish, plus a chicken taco which was fantastic. A must try if you’re in the neighborhood
Very great atmosphere! Came for my birthday and had a tasty drink and a shot! Loved the comida!
This place is delicious!! Very filling! Love the chips and salsa bar, the atmosphere on the back patio, and the super friendly staff!! Highly recommend you try this place!
Fast, well-prepared, clean Mexican food in a comfortable traditional bistro style place. Restaurant gets great western aspect sun in the afternoon. Situated near a major parking lot and shopping district.

The best burrito in Berkeley! Salsa that’s out of this world, and plenty of great drinks to wash it down. Fun outdoor porch is a vibe too

Love the atmosphere and the customer service. Our food came out fast and was delicious. My mango margarita was phenomenal. Will visit again.

Fun back patio with a bar, TVs, space heaters. Great food & drinks! Tacos are substantial. Carnitas is legit. Great place for dinner before seeing a show at Ashkenaz next door. We’ll be back!
Very kind and attentive staff made the whole experience even better. The food was delicious and filling. They have a variety at the salsa bar including fresh fruit. You can refill your horchata at the front counter along with other cold refreshing drinks. The outside patio feels far away from the busy street and has many heaters. My wife and I love this place and will come back many times.
Best spot in the area. Veggie burrito no cheese no sour cream is excellent for vegans. Staff are all super sweet. Atmosphere is great!
Food was a good price and super tasty. The service was really friendly. Love the included chips and salsa bar. They even have fruit!
I ordered the Super Bowl (Fish) and it was very delicious and portions were perfect after a long hike. Will definitely recommend coming here for lunch or dinner. Will be back (:
Huevos Ranchero was really good. It came with refried pinto beans, rice, 2 kinds of salsa, guacamole, sour cream. The chicken burrito was good, big. Ingredients are fresh. Super friendly staff. Very warm, bright, welcoming place
Been here twice the first time my girlfriend ordered pozole she enjoyed it a lot, she told me it reminded her of the one she makes 🔥... But I don't quite remember what I ordered so that says it all 🫣... the second time we went she ordered a shrimp cocktail it lacked in flavor and octopus was chewy. I ordered the large Huarache and unfortunately it was cold but at least the meat on top was warm... I thought I would have enjoyed it more considering it's what they advertise the most. The micheladas are good, the service is great, the salsa bar has plenty to choose from but unfortunately some of chips were stale,the second time we went. Very nice patio in the back. 10/10 agua fresca orchata and jamaica

Breakfast burrito is the weakest I've had on San Pablo. Absolutely no flavor. The contents were what I would confidently say was less than 2 slices of sandwich meat and 1.5 eggs, and bland unseasoned potatoes with a pinch of cheese. The breakfast burrito was so underfilled that the tortilla was bunched up along the middle of the "burrito". This has the girth of a Costco hotdog with 1/4 the substance. 80% potato. Zero flavor. $13.20 after tax For a place that loudly advertisers breakfast burritos, this is beyond the most disappointing I've had in a long time. Also got two tacos that were by far the blandest in on San Pablo.
