Sol Cubano — Restaurant in Citrus Heights

Sol Cubano is an unexpected and total DELIGHT!! Very friendly greeting as we walked in. Felt like coming into a home, fresh, clean, cozy and lovely. We ordered the oxtail. So absolutely filled with flavor from the first uber-delicious bite to the very last of it! Never have I had such a comforting beefy, tender flavor filled oxtail as this!! The rice with beans was just as amazing with a completely different array of mouth-watering goodness!! Tostones were the sweetest, tender and had just the slightest crunch!Everything arrived fresh and steaming hot! Nobody does that anymore! Amazing accomplishment. Loved their chilie sauce on the table - which Mama Mia needs to be sold separately as take home. If all this wasn't enough enjoyment, then came the flan. I guessed it would be good. I was NOT prepared that it was actual perfection! I could eat it all day!!! If it were possible to give Sol Cubano 10 STARS it wouldn't be enough. Go get some NOW, before I buy all the...

Sol Cubano is like a little hole in the wall burst of flavor. It literally is the only caribbean restaurant in Sacramento. If only we had more like Miami but who am I kidding :o .. I do love the dinner plate Ropa Vieja,(shredded beef in a sauce) however, the times I've come it has tasted different each time. Some really good, some not the greatest. So I have now been ordering the Carne de Res con papa (beef chunks with potatoes) so far so good. I always order an order of Tostones (fried green plaintains) y Maduros (fried sweet plaintains) & my dinner always ends with a Cortado ( cuban espresso) & un pastellito de guayaba (guava pastry). Being a Puerto Rican/Cuban in Sacramento is so hard because there literally are NO restaurants with our food. So when I am feeling homesick I always drop in! Give it a try! The downfall is they are ONLY OPEN 4days/wk (Wednesday-Saturday) #FriendlyService #Welcoming...
