Arrived a few minutes late. Seated immediately. Bread butter and queso fresco on table very quickly. Queso fresco very pleasant surprise and an entirely Portuguese experience. Next I ordered a lovely bottle of Portuguese red wine (list is compact but excellent) then order my favorite items on menu. Caldo verde. Pasteis de bacalàu. Cabrito. Relaxed pace. Food utterly delicious. Superb kind and attentive service. Highly highly recommend. Service is like eating with family. Food is elevated grandma food (that’s a huge compliment!).

So very disappointed that I made reservations for Saturday night and they didn't have Catalpana de Marisco as advertised. They advertise it as the "STAR" of the "seafood festival" but it's not even on the menu. I asked the waiter and he said it was too difficult for the kitchen to prepare. I went to this restaurant specifically for that meal, why even advertise it?

The food was nice, but the service seemed a bit rushed. The atmosphere was decent, although it didn't feel particularly welcoming to me. However, the prices were steep – a platter for $235 seemed excessive, even with fresh and authentic food. A more affordable option might have attracted a larger crowd at the seafood festival.
Our waiter and his coworkers were always around when we needed something.
Looking forward to trying out other menu items.

Double tipping not cool. 20% tip for one person at bar not cool. I want to tip what I feel not what management tells me. Food was so so. 20/25% auto tipping only for 6 or more people at table and they need to state it upfront. Watch your receipt to avoid double tipping

Great service (experienced staff), food not consistent (some items are good and some not so great), similarly not all rooms are good. Large portions when ordering for 2.

The squid dish was delicious but a bit salty. The wait staff were friendly but some not English speaking. Took a long time to get our check at the end of the meal. An awkward moment, a homeless lady came in asking for food or money for her children, and the staff did not blink an eye. We gave her our leftovers.

I had heard great things about Sol-Mar, but my experience was disappointing. The food was bland and didn’t live up to the authentic Portuguese flavors I was expecting. To make matters worse, the service was inattentive, with long waits to place an order and to receive our food. The staff seemed overwhelmed, and the overall atmosphere felt disorganized. For the price, I expected much better quality and service. Unfortunately, I won’t be returning.

I’m not familiar with this area, but I needed a spot and chose this one based on the glowing reviews. I went in expecting a fancy setting or perhaps something with a truly authentic ambiance. While the experience was decent, it didn’t quite live up to the expectations set by other reviews. For the price, I was hoping for something a bit more special. It wasn't bad by any means, just not as impressive as I'd anticipated.
