Reviews for Quinto Sol in Redwood City, CA
After years of walking past Quinto Sol we finally visited, and we will definitely be back. It's pricey, but the food and service... were excellent. I had the mushrooms-with-chili's. It was absolutely superb, but note that it is heavy, with a very richcream-based sauce. My wife had the fish tacos, which were very good, with large chunks of fish, although I honestly don't thinkthey were worth $27... She had the spicy margarita modified to be only half as spicy, since she's sensitive. It was really,really good, with a complexity of flavor that is rare in a margarita. I had a mescal, which was served in a traditional gourdcup and was delicious. I definitely recommend Quinto Sol, for a special night out. Read more
This place is unbearably mediocre. The service isn?t very attentive, the food isn?t very good, and the prices are ridiculous.... The chips aren?t very salty and aren?t as good as Chipotle?s across the street. The salsas are like soup. The rice is incrediblybland and not worth eating. The mole has a complex flavor but not one that makes you want more of it. The pork in the enchiladasis tough and in huge chunks that are hard to eat. And for this middling quality, no stand out dish meal, it?s $50 a personwithout apps or desserts! This is why people hate the Bay Area. Save yourself the underwhelm and go get some actually goodMexican at Milagros instead. Read more
This restaurant was absolutely amazing! I took my 17 year old son for dinner this evening and he thanked me multipletimes for... treating him to such an exquisite meal. The service was great, food was phenomenal (super fresh) and flavorful, and theambiance was so cozy. From the chips and salsa to our entrée, everything was so delicious. We will definitely be back!

We came here after work, 600pm, for HH and dinner today. I couldn't decide between the camarones but finally went with the... camarones al cilantro from the Google pictures/reviews. I paired it with the anejo tequila flight cuz I've been wanting to trythe La Familia. The camarones al cilantro was very good but short on wow factor, barely grazing a 4.5/5 overall for platter. Asfor the price, I would have to agree with some reviews as being pricey for what you get. Guacamole seemed fresh and good,4/5. The coctel camarones was delicious and fresh, 4.5/5. All items we had were quite good but seemed to be over price for thefood. The drinks, margarita, Hendricks Tom Collins, and anejo flights were very reasonable. Our server, Godinez, provided 5/5service. Overall, 4.5/5. Read more
we went here for Friday dinner. The ambience is great and vibe is lively . We had to wait for around 30 minutes for a... table. Server staff is great and friendly. The food on the other hand is mediocre, it?s Tex mex not authentic Mexican food.Cheese in everything. They give complimentary chips and salsa. Salsa is creamy liquid like not chunky. The only option of fishtacos you have is $25 entree under ?specials? and not anything less than that. Not worth the price in my opinion. For a comboof $19 the tacos they serve has only meat options which is interesting that obvious choice in taco is not fish. It seems likethis is great place if you want to grab cocktails/drinks with some light appetizers. Read more
Quinto Sol is a lovely spot if you?re looking for great Mexican/poblano food. The atmosphere is so fresh, and the service is so... warm. Angie assisted us and was so sweet and attentive to all of our requests. The inside has light-up trees and stars alongsidebeautiful floral pieces. The music is relaxing yet energetic. I recommend you stop by for the vegetarian rice, bean, and cheeseburrito. Here?s an emoji summary of my experience: ?? ???????????? Read more
Visited my family and friends. Loved the bar and bar staff. The vibe was fun, we had a few pitchers of margaritas served in a... large tequila bottle to pour ourselves. The decor was really cool! Read more
The venue is better than the best. A beautiful place to enjoy flavorful Mexican dishes. The bar is a must see piece of art. I... tried the carne asada burrito dish which was delicious and more food than I could eat. Along with this, the Cadillac margaritawas mixed well with an overall balanced flavor, not too tart, not too sweet. If I can identify a weakness in the force, I waspleased with the guacamole and hot sauce choices though the chips were a bit bland and possibly commercially produced. Theservice was impeccable, with attention to presentation, professional and friendly attitudes. Please note dishes are somewhatpriced above the average. $$$. Check on line prior to sticker shock. Overall, this place is awesome and I recommend in thestrongest way. Read more
