    Crust
    Keat K.

    Came here on a Wednesday evening with friends to check out the pizza buddy promotion. The deal is buy 2 slices with a partner and one is free, and with the quality of the pizza, it's a steal! We ordered the sausage slices, the pickled fennel with the ricotta brightens up each bite. We also got 2 slices of the spring pie, the flavors of the cream of spinach, leaks, crème fraiche, and lemon juice blend well together. Thin crispy crust, but firm enough to support the toppings, there's little to no flop! The crumb was airy and bread like. Solimar serves up artisan style pizzas, which are well thought out and intentional. I'll definitely be back, and already looking forward to trying out the rest of the menu on a future visit!

    Carrots and polenta
    Kristina M.

    Our friend Lex discovered this place on IG and we decided we would check it out before a double date night for a movie. It was a Saturday evening and apparently it's best if you have reservations. There were plenty of seats open when we arrived and the vibe given from the host was as if she didn't want to seat us. Once we were seated, others seated after us were asked what they wanted to drink and had the opportunity to order an appetizer. I'm not sure what this was about but we eventually were acknowledged and were able to place our drink and food order. The best thing I got was a cocktail for $9 which contained Mexican coke and red wine. It was delicious! Our table was not impressed with the price for the fries and asparagus. We also didn't care for the pickle plate. The pizza was good. The carrots and polenta plate I got seemed overpriced. There was parking out front and this place was easy to get to. No one ordered food outside but between the indoor and outdoor seating, there's plenty of spots to enjoy a decent meal and beautiful ambiance. I'd like to go back to try different drinks and see if their menu will change. If I go back I'll make sure to make a reservation as it seemed like the staff preferred this.

    Chicago Tavern Pizza
    Suraj P.

    The food here was excellent and it is definitely worth trying! All the pizzas were super tasty and they came out very quickly. The outdoor area is also really cool! The only downside was they had closed the kitchen without letting us know, we wanted to order another pizza but were unable to. Overall great experience otherwise and would go back again!

    Spumoni cake

    I was so excited to try the newest gem in Oak Park by the talented team behind Faria Bakery. Their slow pizza is made with fresh, clean ingredients and a fluffy-yet-thin crust that screams farm to fork! Truly appreciate how fresh all ingredients are. They add a unique twist to their whole pizza by giving you scissors to cut your pizza slices however you like. However if you're craving a greasy traditional pizza this might not be your spot. I wanted to try their Chicago tavern but was sold out on a Friday night. The vibes here are perfect for a cozy date night. Think dim lighting, candles on every table, and a menu full of delicious bites. It's simple, romantic, and totally worth a visit. The Solimar Dessert was a showstopper in presentation, with great icing and flavor, but the cake itself was a tad dry for my taste. This would be the biggest area of improvement on my end but still worth a try if you're a dessert lover. I would definitely be back and would love to see how they grow as a restaurant. What we tried: * Bread & Butter * Cucumber Salad * Pistachio & Rosemary Pizza * Garlic Potato Pizza * Sausage, Confit Tomato & Ricotta Pizza * Spumoni Cake Overall review: 3.7

    One of every dessert
    Mariangel R.

    Solimar is one of my favorite pizza spots in town! You can tell they use the most local, seasonal ingredients in everything they make. The restaurant interior is super cute and well decorated, and their outdoor seating is spacious and so nice on a warm summer evening. The workers there and at faria are very kind and attentive. They always strike up a conversation and didn't rush us when we stayed a little past closing. I also love their BOGO slice on Wednesdays when you bring a friend!

    Sausage pizza
    Julie S.

    Having been long time fans of Faria, we were excited to try their restaurant next door. We were not disappointed. Everything we tried there hit it out of the park in terms of flavor, creativity, and freshness. Our server was awesome. She explained the menu and was attentive to our needs throughout the evening. We tried the roasted carrots with polenta, beets with buttermilk, and the sausage pizza. I had a glass, ok maybe two, of the chilled Lambrusco. I loved it! The ambience in the restaurant is cute and hip. We would definitely return to try some of their other offerings.

    My understanding is that Faria opened this pizza restaurant, thus I had high hopes for this place (and it certainly is an improvement to the mediocre pizza place here before it). Solimar really shines in it's farm to table style pizzas with fresh and interesting ingredients. Very nice interior though some areas like the bathroom are far from finished. I hope it does well as I am a big fan of revitalizing Oak Park. Nonetheless, areas for improvement include it's not-good-at-all Chicago "Tavern" style pizza. It was burnt a decent amount and, even if not burned, was not much like true Chicago Tavern style at all (I am a born and raised Chicagoan). The cake dessert was also on the dryer side. Hope the place continues to improve and worth a visit!

    Cucumber appetizer
    Corinna R.

    New pizza place from the creators of Faria. We got three pizzas and some appetizers to share and loved the Margarita the most! We will definitely be back for this one. Wednesdays does have BOGO slice night, but we got there too late (it stops at 7).

    Beets
    Nicol D.

    The beets & buttermilk: roasted, salted, & pickled beets in light herb buttermilk vinaigrette to die for, the dressing was so good! I wanted to put it on everything. The spinanch tortellini & broth semolina pasta dough with housemade ricotta, nasturtium flowers, & basil oil - so simple yet delicious! I would go back just for this! Sausage pizza: red sauce, mozza, onion relish, ricotta, pickled fennel - I liked the pizza but wasn't a huge fan of the ricotta and pickled fennel. If I ordered again, I would hold those items. The crust was delicious, but left me wanting some spicy oil to add that kick. My wife got slices of the vegan pizza and cheese. Both weee delicious, the vegan was super spicy which I loved and wished it had translated to the sausage pizza. We finished it off with tiramisu, which they say is the best. I have to agree, it was massive and very very good! Super smooth and flavorful. I had 2 glasses of wine, each $21 - a bit of a high price point for wine, but it was good. Overall, great new place and would go back!

    Fig Pizza
    Sibel A.

    I have been a longtime Faria Bakery Lover (i honestly think it is the best bakery in town) SO I WAS SO EXCITED TO WHEN I FOUND OUT ABOUT SOLIMAR! Solimar did not disappoint my very very high expectations! I love the indoor/ outdoor seating options because both are very comfortable for smaller or larger groups. We had nonalcoholic drink: the fizzy lemonade and Mexican Sprite (the liquor license is coming soon!) For mains, we got three pizzas: Carnitas Pizza, Potato Corn Pepper Pizza, and Fig Pizza! The Carnitas Pizza was my favorite because of the fried beans on top with the chili oil butter. All of the pizzas have an amazing crust (I think they use a version of their miso sourdough base)! Moving to dessert, I consumed the BEST TIRAMISU OF MY ENTIRE LIFE! I mean the so sincerely because it was better than tiramisu from Italy, and the Grove. I will definitely be returning and ordering tiramisu for my birthday!

    I was skeptical about $27 pizza. But let me tell you, Worth. Every. Penny. The fig and burrata pizza was my favorite, everyone also really loved the grape pizza. The corn potato pizza was also amazing. The 6 of us shared 3 pizzas and left very satisfied. The outside area is large and nice. The inside is sleek and nice. The pizza isn't quite thin or thick crust, it's a really nice chunky sourdough. Can't wait to go back.

    Fried squash
    Nora J.

    10/10!! Everything was absolutely divine - from the ambiance, the service, the wine, and the food. We ordered a few appetizers to share, including the Chicago pizza, fried squash, and bread and butter. So so tasty, and we were impressed down to the butter served with the bread. My main course was the lasagna, which was heavenly and served with a fresh mini baguette. The lasagna had some unique twists, including a base of what tasted almost like scalloped potatoes. The portions were perfect and we had leftovers to take home. Excited to come back when the weather starts warming up to enjoy the outside patio.

    Hard to see that sausage... but gooey ricotta
    Bonnie C.

    So glad Faria folks took this over. Seems like I think about going & its closed-- only open weekends beginning Thursday. We did take-out & got the 12 in sausage-ricotta pizza. I love their sourdough crust to begin with. Flavors of each ingredient came through-- delicious ricotta, yummy baked garlic and sausage. My criticism is they were stingy with sausage-/ barely tasted it. In a sausage pizza, you need to have a good amount of sausage!! My husband liked how they redid the space, tho he said it was bit cold (temperature wise). We will be back-- and go early like we did for takeout

    Found La Porta Restaurant & Bar on Yelp, and between the great reviews and the awesome-looking food…read morepictures, we decided this was the spot for dinner tonight. Great choice! We were staying at the DoubleTree by Hilton nearby, so the location was really convenient. La Porta is tucked right behind the Mercedes dealership, and there was plenty of parking, which is always a nice bonus. Once inside, we were greeted and seated right away. The restaurant has a modern, comfortable feel with a full bar. There was even a colorful group apparently headed to an Indian wedding, dressed in beautiful silk finery and enjoying cocktails at the bar. It added a fun splash of color and energy to the evening. The menu had plenty of tempting choices, but the three of us quickly settled on some favorites. My mother-in-law ordered the Spaghetti Bolognese, while my wife and I shared a 12" A16 Napoli pizza with pepperoni and an order of their lasagna. Everything was delicious! The pizza had a thin, nicely crisped crust with fresh mozzarella, tomato sauce, basil and plenty of pepperoni. The lasagna arrived bubbling hot in its own dish, covered in beautifully browned melted cheese and surrounded by a rich tomato sauce. My mother-in-law's Bolognese was equally well received. Portions were generous enough that we had a little left over, and you better believe it came with us. It was sooo good, there was no way we were letting it go to waste...! I kept my drink simple with pear flavored Grey Goose vodka and soda, and it was so refreshing! Our server was super sweet, funny and attentive without hovering. She stopped by regularly to refill our waters, check on the table and make sure we had everything we needed. Great service can really make a meal, and she definitely added to the experience. Good food, generous portions, friendly service, plenty of parking and a convenient location made La Porta a really enjoyable find. If I'm in the Sacramento area again, this will definitely be on the short list of places I'd happily return to. Great little find, and those leftovers aren't going to make it very long tonight...!

    This is one of my favorite spots to stop for lunch. The food is always high quality and delicious…read moreand everything from their regular items to specials are made with thought and care. You'll find street parking in the area, and it's typically easy to find a spot with parkmobile right by the restaurant. They have plenty of seating, including some booths and seating on the windows. It's great for a quick meal solo, with another person or for small groups, but anything more than 6, you're going to want to take your food to-go. I typically take my orders to-go and they're always great at packaging items for the journey back to wherever you're heading. Our number one item is their pepperoni squares, but everything is delicious. I love trying their sandwiches and will often order a salad to pair with our pizzas. The salads are always elevated and super fresh and flavorful. Keep an eye out for their specials on social media and their website. They made some fun, and delicious, combinations and it's always nice trying something new from them. It's always a treat when we get to stop by.

    [Sis takes first bite of her pepperoni slice.]…read more *KRONCH* Woah. :o! This is it. Pizza in Sac that actually has a crispy undercarriage. I had the hawaiian slice and yup the first bite was ASMR crispy goodness! Very tasty red sauce as well but I'll say as a negative not enough topping amount (didn't really taste the spam and the pineapple gave only a slight sweetness edge). Next time I'll probably just go with the cheese pizza slice. No-fuss chill vibes. Interior and outdoor seating. Definitely a food spot to check out if you're near the state capitol!
