Quinto Sol, Redwood City CA

An excelent Mexican restaurant. I yet have to try a dish I didn't like. One complaint: it's a little loud.

I love coming here. The service is always nice, the food is delicious, and the margaritas do exactly what they should.

Great location, fun space, excellent food, tasty good drinks.just a great place to go with friends or fun date.

The soup, YUM, great appetizers and any other food item is excellent.

The venue is better than the best. A beautiful place to enjoy flavorful Mexican dishes. The bar is a must see piece of art. I tried the carne asada burrito dish which was delicious and more food than I could eat. Along with this, the Cadillac margarita was mixed well with an overall balanced flavor, not too tart, not too sweet. If I can identify a weakness in the force, I was pleased with the guacamole and hot sauce choices though the chips were a bit bland and possibly commercially produced. The service was impeccable, with attention to presentation, professional and friendly attitudes. Please note dishes are somewhat priced above the average. $$$. Check on line prior to sticker shock.
Overall, this place is awesome and I recommend in the strongest way.

This restaurant was absolutely amazing! I took my 17 year old son for dinner this evening and he thanked me multipletimes for treating him to such an exquisite meal. The service was great, food was phenomenal (super fresh) and flavorful, and the ambiance was so cozy. From the chips and salsa to our entrée, everything was so delicious. We will definitely be back!

This place is unbearably mediocre. The service isn’t very attentive, the food isn’t very good, and the prices are ridiculous. The chips aren’t very salty and aren’t as good as Chipotle’s across the street. The salsas are like soup. The rice is incredibly bland and not worth eating. The mole has a complex flavor but not one that makes you want more of it. The pork in the enchiladas is tough and in huge chunks that are hard to eat. And for this middling quality, no stand out dish meal, it’s $50 a person without apps or desserts! This is why people hate the Bay Area. Save yourself the underwhelm and go get some actually good Mexican at Milagros instead.

High quality upscale Mexican
I get the camarones Al cilantro, which are fantastic. It’s a small portion of shrimp and high priced, but the whole plate is a good deal as it comes with beans and rice and a rice salad (plus tortillas)

Ordered Camarones AL Chipotle OR with Nueva Sauce - spicy and savory! And of course, we've got Margaritas, yes it was real Margaritas - they have so many different types and styles! I'd love to try everything on the menu. We’ll come back for sure.

After years of walking past Quinto Sol we finally visited, and we will definitely be back. It's pricey, but the food and service were excellent.

I had the mushrooms-with-chili's. It was absolutely superb, but note that it is heavy, with a very rich cream-based sauce. My wife had the fish tacos, which were very good, with large chunks of fish, although I honestly don't think they were worth $27.

She had the spicy margarita modified to be only half as spicy, since she's sensitive. It was really, really good, with a complexity of flavor that is rare in a margarita. I had a mescal, which was served in a traditional gourd cup and was delicious.

I definitely recommend Quinto Sol, for a special night out.

None of the appetizers (Guac, Quesadillas, Salsa, Elote) were particularly noteworthy or well seasoned but the enchiladas and burritos were decent. Nice ambience and fast service

Food is ok, margarita selection is decent, but they put cheese on their tacos which is a bad sign.

We came here after work, 600pm, for HH and dinner today. I couldn't decide between the camarones but finally went with the camarones al cilantro from the Google pictures/reviews. I paired it with the anejo tequila flight cuz I've been wanting to try the La Familia. The camarones al cilantro was very good but short on wow factor, barely grazing a 4.5/5 overall for platter. As for the price, I would have to agree with some reviews as being pricey for what you get. Guacamole seemed fresh and good, 4/5.
The coctel camarones was delicious and fresh, 4.5/5. All items we had were quite good but seemed to be over price for the food. The drinks, margarita, Hendricks Tom Collins, and anejo flights were very reasonable. Our server, Godinez, provided 5/5 service.
Overall, 4.5/5.

Amazing place with great food. Not to mention the endless list of liquor and cocktails. However, it is a bit on the expensive side compared to most other rmexican places.

Very nice ambience and decor, staff was nice. We ordered only appetizers which were good and decent size.

Food was very tasty but a bit pricey for what you got. Service was very good with the exception that it took quite a while to get chips and salsa in the beginning and when we asked to have a cocktail (Tamarind Margarita) exchanged for a different one (blue margarita) because the tamarind margarita was not very tasty and was very weak. The waiter said it could not be exchanged, instead he offered to add more tamarind flavor which made it even weaker. The blue margarita was very delicious and strong, definitely recommend that.

Other than that food is delicious, the staff is professional and courteous and the atmosphere is upbeat. Will probably not go back but it's definitely worth a try if you've never been there.

Quinto Sol is a lovely spot if you’re looking for great Mexican/poblano food. The atmosphere is so fresh, and the service is so warm. Angie assisted us and was so sweet and attentive to all of our requests. The inside has light-up trees and stars alongside beautiful floral pieces. The music is relaxing yet energetic. I recommend you stop by for the vegetarian rice, bean, and cheese burrito. Here’s an emoji summary of my experience: ?

Worst food in Redwood City
I ordered a salad with pork, no seasoning at all and that mozzarella cheese made it worst. Too expensive for a simple ordinary salad
I also ordered a Tamarindo margarita not good at all
The taco plate, OMG $26.00 where was the meat? Never going back

Just the very best tortilla soup… after a movie we went to get dinner. Usually there is a wait but not this time…walked in and was seated. They just have dinning down. Don Julio Blanco margarita was the bomb…. If you an get in you must if you crave the very best Mexican food!
