Overall very tasty food. Most of our table for some sort of Fajitas & each were very filling. It is a standard American-Mexican restaurant. Prices are extremely reasonable. If your goal is to get a very hefty portion size that is tasty then this is the place. However, the reason for the 4* instead of 5* was the service. It wasn't awful service but you could tell most of their staff that English is not their main language. So it was hard to hear the waitress when asking us questions. Two of our guests would speak Spanish to them so it helped, but not for the rest of us. When we asked for waters, we didn't all get waters. When we asked for (& paid for) the additional tortilla chips, they were brought after we got our meals. We had a table of 12 & for how much the tip would be expected, you'd expect to see the waitress more than 1x outside of taking our drinks then dropping them off/getting order, dropping off food, & dropping off the bill. Great place if you just want the good food. read more

Sad. A once very good locally owned Mexican restaurant - is now just crap. Happy hours used to be very busy - now maybe 2-4 people. The service used to be awesome - they knew you (or acted like it). The bartenders are rotated in from the dishwashers now. ZERO knowledge, no ability to pour anything other than their "house" Margherita mix. The food is just pure crap. Sad read more

Food was really good ,the service was really good everything was a amazing Everyone was really nice when we came here a hour before closing read more

Was very disappointed in the meals we had We a four vietnam veterans All of our servings we not hot Plus vacuuming around Was not good I realize It isn't electric vacuum Whatever is wasn't good read more

We stopped in on a Saturday afternoon for lunch. The service was spectacular and the food satisfied our craving for tacos. We were slightly disappointed in the yellow cheese on top of the enchiladas. The beef enchilada was quite tasty regardless. The tacos al pastor were super yummy. As my "go to" at most Mexican restaurants, the tacos here were up there with the best. As far as the location, it is a little outdated. It is a bit dark but for being such a large place it is quite cozy. read more

This Solea is terrible. I have given them 3 chances. The food is mediocre at best. Ordered and was out in 5 minutes. Met friends and the waiter was upset because we took so long and there were tons of open tables. Dropped our food off without saying 1 word. Never checked back. Not friendly at ALL! 3 rd time with bad service and the food is not worth it. Go to the one in Menasha. They are so nice and the food is awesome. read more

Went there on recommendation from family. Was not disappointed as the selection, service and quality of the food was great.

Well now, what a difference. Talk about FAST! The food was good and the service was so much better. The best waitress that I have had there. I believe her name was Veronica. We had the chicken fajita for 2 and we didn't get 1/2 of our chips eating and the meal was being served. The only thing that kept this from being a 5 star is the cleanliness. Table was sticky, and dirt on the carpet. read more

I just have to say, do not ever go here! First and foremost, my daughter had about a inch piece of rubberband in her food. Others saw her take it out of her burrito. However, when I just called to complain about the fact that I was charged for my cheese and pico de gallo, my taco salad was 14$ and ended up being about 25$, so I wanted to talk to the manager.... Well check this out, he said that they found a rubber band on the floor. Yes, we know. It was a red one, our friend was given a banner and the rubber band that was on it went flying. This one however was blue and cut into about a 1 inch piece. I was accused of putting it in the food. YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME!!! My daughter had to ask several times for her pico de gallo and lettuce, which were not even on her plate. I have NEVER been charged for extra cheese there nor the pico de gallo, I wasn't even advised that I would be. Absolutely disappointed and dissatisfied. I will never go back to eat here. I hope you do the same!!! I will be calling the better business bureau tomorrow. I have never been accused of doing such a thing, nor would I EVER do anything of the sort.!!!! Shame on them!!!!! read more

Lets just start by saying .i am much pleased Great food Friendly service Great prices Who could ask for more Well done Silvia bravo read more

Man this place is awful. Zero flavor at a Mexican restaurant?? I'm surprised with how terrible this place is and it is absolutely shocking people actually return here. If you like Solea, you have not had decent Mexican-American food. Mexican American and Texmex food is my favorite and this place is shameful. Jaripeos is much better. Especially el jaripeos in Oshkosh, go there and spend your money on a local restaurant with good food. Please don't give your money to this BS chain. Even my farm grown dad thought this place was awful and he likes pretty much everything so... this place is bad. read more

Appleton Solas was good but NOT here in Neenah. The last waiter we had, the 2 times before, in this location, was more aggressive and rude. Today not good. Taco salad and chimichanga was 100% meat with no taste, so only tasted like meat and was hard to chew. Had a coupon for Dining Discount through Restaurants.com (see picture below) but this restaurant would not accept the coupon because they said "we were already getting a discount drink for happy hour." Wow and it never said that on the coupon. I guess we are done coming to Neenah Solas. Food and service is not good there. And on on our 30th wedding anniversary of ours too, disappointing. WE HOPE THE OWNER STARTS PAYING ATTENTION TO THESE REVIEWS BECAUSE THEIR IS ALOT OF NEGATIVE ONES ON HERE NOW SAYING THE SAMETHINGS read more

oh my god,this place sucked...One star for the staff being really nice and attentive, but honestly. Food sucked!!! Chips were ok, and salsa was ok, but not OK. Now here is where it goes down hill. I had the enchiladas suizas, which is green chicken enchiladas. Lets start. The green sauce on top of the enchiladas sucked. Wasnt flavorful. The chicken inside, was red in color, but didnt have any flavor, and the tortilla that wrapped the chicken, didnt taste good. Rice and beans were ok. One star....Wouldnt recommend... Sorry. read more

Food and service was excellent, price and quantity very good. Atmosphere of the restaurant was great; even full we could have a nice conversation. We will be back often! The only improvement I would suggest is no smoking in the outside walk way. Not a good smell after such a good dinner and it seems to be a gathering spot for drunks with foul language. read more

I highly recommend this restaurant. I had Fried tacos. Flaky, crisp and delicious. The fish was very fresh. My family had burritos that were equally great. Chips and salsa came to start with a homemade bean dip. Staff was friendly too. Food came quickly. read more

Solea Mexican Grill - Ordered the fish tacos. They were amazing! The fish was battered and fried- it was so flaky and fresh. - Mexican Near Me - Neenah, Wisconsin

Food full of flavor!! Ordered the Barbacoa burrito. Came with rice and beans. Everything was great

Hasn't let me down at all! Great tamarindo margaritas! Good service and atmosphere! Huge place with tons of seating options.

Very disappointed. We are a family of 6 and were charged a 24% "surcharge." If we are charged an automatic surcharge, I would expect stellar service. It was just ok. We only received 1 basket of chips and salsa for our "group." Again, if you charge the surcharge I expect top notch service and definitely more than one small basket of chips for our "group." in my opinion the prices are also more than I would expect. We won't be back. read more

This is a consistently good place I like to eat at when I'm in town. I've never had a bad meal here. In addition to the staples, they offer a nice menu of more adventurous fare. Last time I was here, they offered a California burrito with french fries inside and coconut shrimp tacos. The chips and salsa here are very addicting, and service has always been good. A nice quick place to eat lunch if you're stopping by on a lunch break from work. read more

We had a bad experience for lunch, twice! Loved the margaritas & the food was okay...but the service was lacking. I thought the place was very dirty as well and the bathroom was a mess. We won't be back. read more

Always a great experience! Love the food (chimichangas are my go to!) Best Mexican in Neenah!

Very friendly service. One of the better locales right off the highway for those driving throuhh to points north. The Bell street ramp is closed so you have to get off at Winneconne and circle back. Patron margarita is very yummy at $6.50. I also liked the chips though not the bean dip. The Mexican cobb salad was great. My Mom said her burrito wasn't as good as the last time she was here though. Hopefully just a isolated mishap. read more

Great staff and the food is always tasty and authentic. We have company happy hours here and they take such good care of us. read more

Solea Mexican Grill - Mexican Near Me - Neenah, Wisconsin

What a terrible experience. The worst Fajita I've ever had.. The pork was SO tough you couldn't cut it or even pull it apart to try to chew it. The plate it was on was SO hot it scorched everything that touched it..The pork was hard to find under a huge pile of green peppers and onions... they must be a lot cheaper to put on a plate than even the tough pork. Now add a waitress who is asking if we want take home containers just minutes after bringing out our entrees; and, taking every plate, cup, bowl "out of our way" before we barely had any thing off of it... Felt like we were getting bum rush to get out. No sooner had she brought out those containers she was back with out bills. There were lots of empty tables, but I asked if she needed us out to free the table. A friend with us also ordered a fajita, steak; and hers too was so tough she had same problem trying to cut it to eat. Very disappointed indeed! read more

I had lunch here with a larger group on a Saturday afternoon. The place was wide open for us to grab a table without a reservation. They have a wide variety of Mexican food options including many that are healthier which is super important to me. The service was super friendly and attentive. I had a salad with shrimp which was large and very fresh. The atmosphere is much like your typical Mexican joint. I would definitely come back if I needed a quick bite in the Neenah area. read more

Everyone always told me how great Solea was and I finally caved. I got my favorite meal from Durangos (fajita burrito) so I could compare the two. I wasn't impressed. For one, guacamole was extra. Two, it cost more. Three, it was smaller. And four, it tasted alright but wasn't that great. The El Rey on the other hand was actually really good. The problem with that was it was $16 for a burrito... The table side guacamole wasn't flavorful either. The salsa was runny and had a strong onion flavor over anything else - not a fan. The chips were good though. Overall, 2.5. read more

Great staff and the food is very good. I have been to this location on many occasions and I leave content and happy every time. I see one review stating the food to be sub-par. I have no affiliation with nor do I know anyone personally affiliated with this restaurant location / chain. IMHO he must have gone on an off day because I can tell you from my personal experience on many occasions that the food has been very good. read more

Been meaning to write a review for a while. If you like tropical drinks and ask for a coconut margarita, it will be the best drink you will ever have. Tequila dinners are awesome too. read more

This is my one of my all-time favorite restaurants! My family and I have been dining here regularly since they opened about a decade ago and we have never had a bad experience. The staff is friendly, the food is amazing, the atmosphere is great and so are the prices. Whether it's having a few drinks with friends on the bar side, or sitting down to a family dinner on the restaurant side, Solea is always excellent. The whole family loves it! read more

We went there for a Mother's Day take-out and were a bit concerned about social distancing, but for the most part they are doing great! One person at a time enters the lobby to pick-up the order and they have a plastic shield between the worker who takes your credit card and you. The only issue was he had to handle the credit card & the pens you sign with are in a little box. After I signed, I left the pen on the receipt (thinking he'd wipe it down before returning it, but no). Bring a wet wipe and you will be fine. Same fabulous food, we were not disappointed other than we enjoy the chips at the table which we didn't get any, but I wanted to make sure we had some, so I ordered the guacamole, which was even better than the food! I would recommend supporting this business and looking forward to being able to sit in the restaurant and enjoy a margarita! read more

Very terrible service, not good food. Didn't get fresh food. Rice was microwaved. I wouldn't even give this place a star.

Service was nice and friendly, however, food was very bland. Asked for hot salsa and they do not have any!? Only this sour bottled hot sauce. I got white rice with my meal? Not at all what we were expecting. Husband got solea enchiladas and again, very bland. If your looking for alot of flavor, go somewhere else. read more

We've been coming here to celebrate our daughters' birthday for the last few years. The food is good, the service is good, and they let us sit at one of their bigger tables for much longer than they should. We are grateful for that. and will continue to give them our business. read more

Delicious food and great drinks. My boyfriend and I have frequented this Mexican restaurant for years. We have tried other ones in the town of Oshkosh and Neenah and this one by far is the best ! Very attentive staff as well. I would recommend the steak and cheese burrito or any of their fajitas with added mushrooms and cheese! read more

We had a excellent meal, great service, good margaritas. We were there at noon on a Sunday, the place was pretty empty, which would have been e red flag for me, but I had eaten there before, so I knew it was good. Our friends had 2 young children, they ate free, so that was a nice surprise. I have ate at all the Solea restaurants in appleton area, and they are all good. The one in Menasha is more "authentic". We had been there on a Wednesday evening and it was packed. I recommend this restaurant. read more

Really good chips, bean & salsa dip. From what I can tell the salsa is NOT "ketchup". The pastor burrito is excellent. Good service and reasonably priced menu items. Food portions are huge so no worries there. There are a good amount of flat screen TV's for all you sports fans & a nice bar to order your favorite beverage. read more
