Tucked in a corner alleyway of Newton Center, Cafe Sol Azteca is a cozy and enchanting authentic Mexican mainstay for over 20 years. Featuring cuisine from the Mexico's capital you'll be won over by their cilantro and mole sauces that will make you think you just stepped back into the old country. A full bar features the classic requests of sangria, margaritas, and cervezas while adding plenty more like Mezcal drinks and their "to die for" Mango Mojitos. Nightly chef specials along with an extensive traditional and specialty menu leave your taste buds with plenty to experience. Catch them in the warm weather and join them on their outdoor patio featured on local television programs as the place to be.

Good atmosphere!
Jason Bonneau
We only had drinks here, but the margaritas were good and the server was quick and efficient.
Thomas Best
Always a great meal in a casual space - either inside or out.
Gui Freitas
Best karaoke ever! Food is great too.
Kenn Soendergaard
Really good Mexican Cuisine without a large menu. All the dishes we have had there come out pretty quick and cooked to perfection. Really good tortillas and homemade salsa! Worth a visit. If you can get a table in the courtyard in the summer, that is the way to go.

The place is awesome!! Enjoyed karaoke night Friday with friends and had great food as well! A must go place in Newton. You are sure to have fun. The staff and owners are just great people.

I like the food though the chips used to be fresh and the prices are high. Outside seating in the good weather is wonderful and there's a full bar. Been here for years so something must be right. Hard is you're mobility challenged.

Such a nice, cozy restaurant. Outdoor seating when the weather is nice. Great portions of tasty food. Margaritas are on point also.

We ate outside on the patio and loved the atmosphere and the food. Margs were good too. The owner's greeted us the door and we're super nice. Highly recommend the fish tacos.
Abby Bernstein
Incredibly cozy, friendly and delicious. Gabriel (the manager) is so lovely and welcoming. Great for kids and late night dining, too. Highly recommend the black bean soup, the Pescado Cilantro and the More Poblano. Absolute perfection!

My wife and I have been to this restaurants a half a dozen times. Food is good, service is excellent, and love the atmosphere. It can get a bit busy and cramped as it isn't a big restaurant. Also, you'll need to look around for parking. There is a paid parking lot on the other side of the block. Recommend.

I celebrated my graduation yesterday in this great restaurant. Well it was a awesome evening and the restaurant was absolutely one of the reasons for this outstanding meeting. The waiters helped in a gorgeous way, the food was very good and my buddies were extremely overjoyed. We shall absolutely return for more celebrations. Thank you very much.

Extremely slow guys

Went on a Friday night with my buddies. We out outside. There’s great ambience. The waiters were super nice and the food was excellent
Allan Wechsler
I love this place, so I can't be trusted to be objective. They have all the classic Norteño dishes, but they also have less familiar specialties ... try the puerco en adobo, or the Veracruz regional dishes (in the seafood section of the menu).
Karl Bower
Great margaritas, great food. They have a wonderful patio during the summer. Can be really busy, but well worth it. Reserve ahead. Highly recommend.
Tom Best
Great atmosphere, very prompt service, lots of menu options and specialty cocktails.
Sarah Farnsworth
I've been coming to this restaurant for years and it is my favorite Mexican food in the area. They are very consistent and the service is always great. It's a little hidden, but follow the signs and you'll get there. They have a great outdoors patio in the summer. And the sangria is better than anywhere else! Really, get the sangria. You won't be disappointed.

Very cute café situated apart from the main street feels like entering another country. Wonderful music outside, great food and drinks.

Food was great. Some, creative. Outdoor under the umbrella,was best for the day visited. Service was prompt. A couple of paintings hung was eye catching
Charles Negus
Best fajitas I've ever had.

Quick service. Excellent Mexican food. Awesome atmosphere.
Jonathan Starr
Authentic Mexican made extremely well and fast in comfortable surrounds. The owners and wait staff are very personable. Awesome back patio to boot!
Dianne Galanis
This place feels like stepping into Baja! Loved the ambience and decor. The guacamole, salsa, tortilla chips and the veggie and chicken tamales were excellent! My husband ordered the tacos rancheros and he smiled with every bite. He also had the Cadillac Margarita which he very much enjoyed. The chocolate mousse was heavenly. The waiter was very friendly and attentive. Would definitely recommend this place to others!
Seth Kessler
Very authentic Mexican! Very nice owner! Great outdoor patio
Alex Vargus
Good food, friendly staff, and great atmosphere.
Chuck Werber
This is a wonderful place especially in the summer when the outdoor seating is available. The food is really good. I mean really good. The the waiters are quick and efficient. The atmosphere is relaxed. It's not a formal atmosphere. It's not that kind of place. But it's clean, quiet, relaxed, and inexpensive.

Beautiful service and enough food for a few days.
