Okay so I went here thinking this was actually a real restaurant. As I enter it’s a freaking bar!!! No warm welcome from bartender lady as she was very into her conversation with the guys sitting at bar! So after five minutes I finally ask for a menu to place an order!! Food took about 20 minutes which was not bad!! Looked good and taste good! Not sure if ingredients were fresh expired or not a clean cooking area but I got really sick later in day!

I think this may be the first review I have ever written…
What is this place? A) An Italian Restaurant, B) a tacky night club, C) a bar/lounge, D) a store front for money laundering?
Food: It took 30 minutes for our lunch to be served and we were the only 2 people in the restaurant.
My friend ordered the chicken parmigiana and his chicken was well over cooked. The sauce was nothing note worthy either. I ordered shrimp and it was heavily battered, deep fried, and still completely cold and raw inside.
Service: The host sat us in a booth and we sat there for at least 5 minutes before anyone said hello to us. The bartender appeared confused when we approached him and said we needed a menu. After our food was delivered, the bar tender never checked on us. Which means I sat there for 10- 15 minutes, with my raw shrimp prior to me getting up and going to the bar to get his attention. He asked if there was anything else I would like to order and I realized my hour lunch brake was over and I didn’t have time to order anything else.
Atmosphere: A joke!
A few cheap Italian printouts hung on the wall, large white geometric shaped tiles on the wall, modern day disco lights, white plastic cocktail tables/chairs propped along the wall… the host said they were renovating, the bar tender said they are always changing the place. The decor was tacky and cheaply thrown together- they are certainly not trying to attract the usual Italian lunch/dinner crowd. I think they are going for the Night Club Shooting crowd- which occurred in July 2023.
And my tummy is rumbling…. Gotta run (pun intended).

I grew up with the pizza from Sol, and my family always loved it because of how well it resembled classic NY pizza. The pizza I had last night was not that pizza. I don't know why they changed their dough, but it was dry and flavorless. Very disappointing.

I order pizza from Sole's all the time, my mom loves the Lasagna and the wings. Today the pizza was Burnt to the point that anyone that grabbed a Sliced, spit it out. I called, asked for manager and they hung up on me.. look at the recent pics, (bottom photos). Not sure what happened to this place, guess they care more about the Bar then the food now, IDK. Deleting my 5 star review.. Thanks for a Burnt AF pizza Sole's..

Ok pizza with plain ingredients but terrible spaghetti (they don't seem to know what al dente is) that is super soft/soggy. Their meatballs are more like weird shaped tasteless meatloaf pieces. Maybe we just ordered the wrong items but they shouldn't serve this in the first place. At least fries are good
