Customer Reviews
What an amazing night at Chez Mansour! We went to watch Terga Group, and everything was absolutely wonderful. The music was incredible, the ambiance was vibrant and welcoming, and the food was delicious. On top of that, the owner is extremely kind and made us feel right at home. You can really feel the passion and care behind this place. A perfect spot for a great evening with live music, good vibes, and amazing food. Highly recommend, we’ll definitely be back!
Wow a Wine- Bar with 1920’s ambience! A truly amazing discovery of the hidden jewel of boring Solano.. I got their special wine, not from the menu, and it was mind blowing. They have live music and entertainment on weekends! Local regulars are amazingly friendly folks, and don’t forget to ask what is chef special on Thursdays. We will be back !
Two times I went there, both times I ordered large lamb chops, the second time the owner Mansour served me and I realized the first time his wife charged me the large portion but she gave me the smal portion. Mansour was a good guy but I don't know why his wife cheated me, it was very disrespecful I never go there and I don't recommend them to anybody.
This establishment, while offering a full menu, identifies itself as a wine bar. This was made clear to our party as we were deciding what to order. It's best to consider this location as a wine bar that also serves shareable, tapas-style food. Our group of four sampled the following: Meaza Platter: A good starter. Due to an eggplant allergy, we requested the baba ghanoush be served separately. This request prompted another reminder that the focus is on wine, not food. While they wouldn't serve the baba ghanoush on a separate plate, they offered to substitute it with more of another item, like hummus. Chicken Shawarma: This was the most popular dish among our group. The chicken was flavorful, and the portion size was generous, suitable for one person or for sharing. Beef and Lamb Shawar
We went on fine Sunday evening with little to no people around. At first glance, the place had the middle-east charm. Started with my favorite Labneh and multi-wheat pitas/Zaatar which was absolutely amazing. Experimented with Grape leaves mezze which was little on sour side and mild. Then main course of perfectly seasoned grilled lamb chops, scallops kebabs and lamb kebabs. Out of all the tender lamp chops are must try. Roasted potatoes and basmati rice on the side plays well. Ended up with another favorite Baklava (unexpectedly had right sweetness) and tea.
