Sol 626 Mexican Restaurant — Restaurant in Whittier

An Extraordinary Hidden Gem in Whittier!

I hosted my mother's 80th birthday celebration at this aesthetically, beautiful restaurant about three weeks ago, and let me tell you our guests are still raving about it! This place is truly a hidden gem in Whittier.

From start to finish, everything was exceptional. The Oaxaca-style food was outstanding, rich in flavor and beautifully presented. The dessert was a definite hit with everyone, and the ambiance was exactly what we had envisioned-warm, inviting, and perfect for such a special occasion.

Xotchil, one of the owners, was an absolute pleasure to work with-professional, extremely accommodating, and incredibly responsive to every question and request I had. Her team-Liz, Ines, and Raul-were equally amazing: friendly, attentive, and very professional throughout the entire event.

We were also grateful that the owners allowed us to bring in a Mariachi band, a Dueto band, and even a photo booth to make the night even more memorable. It was truly a magical and heartfelt evening, and I couldn't be more thankful for how everything came together.

This milestone celebration meant so much to our family, and choosing this venue was one of the best decisions I made. Thank you to the entire team for your excellent service and for helping create such a beautiful and unforgettable memory for my mother...

my wife and i were musing about how we havent really dined at a restaurant that wowed us in a while. We tend to dine in a lot, cuz we're frugal and are discouraged by the cost of everything these days. But we do go out to our "fancy" restaurant's, from time to time, like Brea Chop house, reunion and other restaurants of that nature and usually leave feeling like "that was pretty" good, but not like," wow, that was a great experience." Know what I'm saying? But today, we visited Sol 626 for the 2nd time, and it. was. perfect. My chilaquiles had the right amount of crunch, flavor and texture, my margaritas we're masterfully concocted and the service by Juan Carlos was top notch. What sweet man he was. Also, there was a great Spanish language duo playing music and they played and sang like angels. It nearly brought a tear to my eye. I mean, everything was great, their food presentation, the ambiance the pride in the Oaxacan food and its country or origin. We left feeling fat, full and happy. I look forward to many more visits. This is a great spot and i hope they're around for a very...

We gave it a try to this very new restaurant. The service was great and they were very friendly. The food here is very authentic and delicious. Most of their dishes are from south Mexico. My son and I ordered a traditional oaxacan "Tlayuda with cecina and tasajo", It was flavorful and by putting on one of their tasteful salsas, it enhanced the flavor even more. My husband ate "mole with chicken" and when I tasted its flavor transported me to Oaxaca state. My youngest son ordered "empanadas with chicken" which are his favorite ones. As an appetizer we ordered a "ceviche" that was served with "plantain chips". This tasteful ceviche was very fresh with its unique flavor. I highly recommend this place if you want to try unique traditional Mexican food from South Mexico. So far for us, it is one of the best restaurants in the city of Whittier con...
