What an amazing night at Chez Mansour! We went to watch Terga Group, and everything was absolutely wonderful. The music was incredible, the ambiance was vibrant and welcoming, and the food was delicious. On top of that, the owner is extremely kind and made us feel right at home. You can really feel the passion and care behind this place. A perfect spot for a great evening with live music, good vibes, and amazing food. Highly recommend, we’ll definitely be back!

Wow a Wine- Bar with 1920’s ambience! A truly amazing discovery of the hidden jewel of boring Solano.. I got their special wine, not from the menu, and it was mind blowing. They have live music and entertainment on weekends! Local regulars are amazingly friendly folks, and don’t forget to ask what is chef special on Thursdays. We will be back !

We stopped here for lunch in the midst of last-minute Christmas shopping (a procrastinating tradition) and were blown away by the food, welcoming atmosphere and charming service. There were only two other diners in the restaurant but they seemed like regulars, always a good sign. The baba ganoush was delightful and not oily and the tabouleh sparkled with fresh taste. We liked that it was light on the bulgar. We shared chicken kebabs, which were juicy and grilled to perfection. Not sure what the marinade was, but it was delicious. I was a sometime visitor to Britt Marie’s but put off by how grimy it had become over the years. The new owners of this location have managed to make it sparkling clean and new, while also keeping elements of the old restaurant.

I Highly recommend this tiny Jewel Wine- Bar on Solano. Very delicious food, fast and good service and an amazing VIP collection of wines. I prefer Chez Mansour special pick each time I go in there. They have live music on weekends and I love ambulance and positive energy of this place.

Everything was excellent! Friendly service, AMAZING food and they also have nights with live music! The pomegranate hummus was the best I've ever had. Also, the Chicken Platter with Roasted Potatoes and Falafels were to die for. They also serve beer and wine + have really cute and dog-friendly outdoor seating!

We went on fine Sunday evening with little to no people around. At first glance, the place had the middle-east charm. Started with my favorite Labneh and multi-wheat pitas/Zaatar which was absolutely amazing. Experimented with Grape leaves mezze which was little on sour side and mild. Then main course of perfectly seasoned grilled lamb chops, scallops kebabs and lamb kebabs. Out of all the tender lamp chops are must try. Roasted potatoes and basmati rice on the side plays well. Ended up with another favorite Baklava (unexpectedly had right sweetness) and tea.
