    Eat at this restaurant regularly and I’ve never had a bad experience or meal. Last night being two days before Christmas it was very busy so noise level was high. Had a great meal , sea bass and short rib bolognese. Highly recommended. Service was excellent.

    Love everything about this place. Good Italian dishes on the menu, with specials offered nightly. All are always very good. The veal meatballs is one of our favorite appetizers, along with pasta specials. Restaurant is comfortable and inviting. The icing on the cake (or filling in the canolli) is the warm welcome from the owner, Giorgio, and staff to all their customers. A neighborhood gem. We wish Solo continued well-deserved success.
