    Over the last few years, Solano‘s just gets better and better. We are never disappointed with our meal or the service. Dined with friends last night and everyone loved what they ordered; Butternut squash ravioli, Cajun shrimp with risotto, pizza, and chicken fettuccine. All were fantastic. The menu is varied with some lower priced, smaller dishes, which we like for those times we are not in the mood for a large meal. Would recommend making a reservation now that the season has started, as they are becoming more and more popular.

    I had the Pappadelle, pesto with chicken. Very little flavor . I thought I read sun dried tomatoes but I got 1 cherry tomato. Needed some garlic and maybe red pepper flakes. My husband had the pasta with Italian sausage and it was ground sausage instead.
