Sol Cubano - North Highlands

Fantastic family-owned Cuban restaurant! The food is incredible—try the Cubano, platanos, maduros, and lechón. It’s hard to find such authentic options in Sacramento, so we’re thrilled to have discovered this place. The portions are generous, and the prices are reasonable. The restaurant is clean, and the service is quick.

My sister's coworker frequently visits this restaurant after work. It's one of those hidden gems that only the locals know about. Situated in Sacramento, it offers an authentic Caribbean and Afro-Latino experience—a genuine taste of Cuba. Every single dish is delicious, so you really can't go wrong here. Whether you try the fresh coconuts, pastellitos, savory empanadas, or appetizers like yuca fries or plátanos maduros, you're in for a treat!

I ordered the empanadas, and they were absolutely perfect! The meat filling was seasoned just right, really enhancing the flavor. The only thing that was even better seasoned was the stuffed potatoes. The cumin added a fantastic touch, though I wish there had been a little more of it. It was so delicious that even if I had received the wrong order, I would gladly pay for a new one. The customer service was excellent, and I definitely plan to come back!

Small room, but great service and amazing food. It was my first time to try Cuban cuisine, and now I'm sorry I didn't try it earlier! We tried the sampler plate and some other dishes, and everything tasted fantastic. I'm back.

They are the best. They stayed after closing for us to come get our food. And it was soooooo freaking good. Not a good picture but we will be back
