My coworkers and I are here from New Jersey doing a job on Butterfield and have gotten La Soledad Restaurante 3 times in a row. The food is amazing and the staff is super friendly and helpful. I want to give a special shout out and thank you to Patricia who has been very kind, patient, and attentive to us as we are a group of 5 and order a lot of food. Thank you so much Patricia!

Great salsa, decent burrito, and horchata is the powdered type which never tastes good. Nothing spectacular about this place to call out from my visit.

I’d highly recommend this place if you’re looking for authentic Oaxacan cuisine. Their menu has different options and aguas frescas. The shrimp tacos were delicious. My partner and daughter ate birria tacos and couldn’t get enough. This place has karaoke and music. Come on the weekends if you want to have a Sunday Funday. We also got an Aqua de piña- they offer free refills. They have a Oaxacan sample and other typical Oaxacan dishes.

Authentic Mexican/Oaxacan food in Morgan Hill finally! Second time here and they’ve only been open a month or so. Great little place, for dine-in or take-out. Be sure to brush up on your Spanish!

I highly recommend the Tlayuda with a cold beer. The owner is very friendly and the staff as well. Great place to have a small bite or a full dinner.

This place is by far one the most authentic Mexican restaurants I’ve been to. The micheladas are a MUST the grilled shrimp are really the cherry on top. And so far, the food has been delectable. I’ve had the enchiladas verde and the Tlayudas, a Oaxaca dish. I recommended!!!
