Hearing stories from coworkers and friends and people that use to work there they were right. First time trying it and it was awful i got food poisoning there. The stories were right undercooked meat, and unwashed produce. Never going again.

El Nopalito had very good food for very reasonable prices. My favorite is the Chicken Enchiladas. Food is always hittin the spot! The counter ladies & gentleman running the cash register are always welcoming and polite. Anytime Im in Soledad, I make this a mandatory stop for some food.

Wow such a good vibe in this place! Felt really welcome and the staff went above and beyond - letting us try the agua frescas and bringing us salsa refills. The barbacoa burrito was so fresh and fulfilling. Definitely coming back every time we pass through Soledad

This is my go-to Mexican spot in Soledad. The enchiladas are sooo tasty, very authentic and always fill me up. Depending on who’s behind the butcher counter, you can sometimes get birria in the enchiladas!

Just ate here with my brother and parents. The sandwich was bomb!! Thanks. Very cozy place with lots of seatings.
The food is traditional, wholesome and unlike anything found this far north.

Important!!! Always Ask for a Receipt (Cash or Card), especially in this restaurant for the following reason:
The food here is delicious, and the prices are reasonable, leaving a great first impression—until I encountered an issue during the same visit.
We initially ordered four entrées and received a bag with handwritten labels taped on it from the food prep staff. I paid in cash but didn’t ask for a receipt, which I usually do. The cashier, an older gentleman who appeared to be the owner, completed the transaction after checking the food and the order label.
After eating part of my meal in-store, we decided to order more food to take home because we enjoyed it. I placed another order, showed the food to the cashier, and paid cash again. However, just as I was about to drive away, the food prep lady ran after me, claiming I hadn’t paid for my first order.
I explained how much I had paid in cash and the change I received, but claimed that neither she nor the cashier could find a record of the transaction. I suggested they check the CCTV footage or their computer records. It seemed the cashier might not have printed the receipt for my cash payment. Additionally, he appeared forgetful, possibly due to age or other reasons. Finally, the lady said it's ok. Probably she found the transaction inside the computer with the amount I told her. It was the first time in my life being accused of eating without pay. They had very few customers from the time I arrived to left, could count with my 2 hands. So, you can't really say the guy didn't remember because of too many people. Customers were staring and it's quite embarrassing!
This situation might stem from disorganized workflows. The food preparer should hand the bag directly to the cashier, who is a few steps away from prep station, this might not have happened. However, it underscores the importance of always requesting a receipt, regardless of how you pay. It can save you from unnecessary misunderstandings and inconvenience.

So much better than any of the chain restaurants on the other side of town. We’ll be coming back again the next time we drive through Soledad. Friendly staff and great burritos.
