Taqueria La Soledad — Restaurant in Concord

I’ve been coming to this little corner of Concord for years, and nothing about it ever changes—and thank god for that. Walk in the door and before you even sit down, the señora is already yelling across the room asking what size your menudo is going to be. That’s hospitality here: loud, unapologetic, and perfect.

The menudo? Hands down the best in Concord. I’ve tried them all, and none of them hit like this one—rich, honest, soul-soothing. Consistency is the secret weapon. Every bowl feels like it was made for a Sunday morning hangover or a homesick heart. Her husband’s in the kitchen keeping the wheels turning, the waiters rotating year after year, and those handmade tortillas… easily the best in town. Thick, warm, chewy—little edible passports back to the homeland.

As an avid menudo-hunter, I ordered the menudo with pata and was far from disappointed, as this bowl of menudo was probably one of the best I have had locally and across California.

Full of well-prepared tripe and all perfectly cooked. Broth was towards the lighter side, but packed with flavor (only to be further enhanced by the toasted chilis they have on every table). The soup comes with freshly-made tortillas that are continuously made; slightly crisp and fluffy in texture with wonderful corn flavor.

Seek this place out. It truly is a hidden...
