The food was alright and the service was nice, but the pricing did not make any sense. We got a carne asada burrito ($12.90) with salsa and beans ($3.10) then also got 2 carne asada tacos with salsa, beans, rice ($28.85). They didn’t explain the charges and we were very confused and disappointed. How are tacos so expensive? Not sure if we will be back after that experience.

When we first moved to North County San Diego from NY in 1980 we asked our newly found painter where was their most favorite restaurant. Without hesitation they recommended Fidel's Mexican restaurant in Solana Beach and it quickly became our go to stop especially when friends visit. While we left Carlsbad in 1985 we returned each year making sure we went there several times. In 1997 we moved back and quickly found this was the only place for Mexican food. We have tried dozens of Mexican restaurants around San Diego but always return. Fidel's located at 607 Valley Av Solana Beach CA 92075 constant wins Top Restaurant of the year and there is good reason. While from the street it looks small but built on a hill the downstairs has numerous rooms including two outside patios and two bars. The sign says it will hold 380 and I believe it. The smaller rooms allows a better setting than one big room and it feels more private. As the history goes it was an original barber shop in early 1960 and the owner Fidel Montanez added tacos to serve his thriving hair cutting business and those waiting. It was a quick success and seeing it had a future he converted his two story home adding patios and two bars. Looking inside you can see the internal set up of a home only to imagine him and his family living there. It is decorated with wonderful pictures and makes you think of many places in Mexico An interesting story when we left for 12 years and moved to Florida I was introduced to a family who also relocated to Florida. When we learned the actually came from the same town in CA I asked "what is your favorite Mexican restaurant and they quickly said "Fidel's" Now back in San Diego it is still our go to place and if you have never been there it is a must.

First and last time visit. Upstairs, downstairs and then upstairs again just to get in! Seated at hard wood high back pew seating, uncomfortable. Chips too thick and salsa too runny. Waitress passed us many times before even getting a menu. Opening the menu we got sticker shock, expected better tasting food than we got served.

It's a beautiful spot with great ambience. But a bit too authentic for us as everything almost was cooked in lard even the chips! Luckily we asked and it turns out majority of the food is cooked in lard. So left us with very little options. Could not even have the chips and salsa. But the server was very helpful and gave us the options that avoided lard (even lot of the sauces had lard). Food: 3 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

The personal is very helpful and very nice, the place is kinda confused when your get in. The food it’s okey, I mean it’s definitely texmex, so if you’re Mexican this is not the place. It’s definitely not authentic Mexican food, but in general was okey. I recommend the beef taco, I really enjoy it.
