Ceviche – Peru’s Gift from the Sea
Ceviche is a beloved Peruvian dish made from fresh raw fish marinated in lime juice, red onions, chili peppers, and cilantro. According to legend, its origins trace back to the Inca civilization, where indigenous people used acidic fruit juice to preserve fish. When the Spanish arrived in the Americas, they introduced limes, giving rise to the ceviche we know today. This dish not only offers a refreshing taste but also showcases the fusion of native and European culinary influences.
At Sol Kitchen & Bar, our ceviche is made with the freshest seafood, marinated in tangy lime juice, red onions, chili peppers, and cilantro, delivering a burst of freshness and zest. More than just a dish, ceviche embodies the perfect harmony between indigenous flavors and European influence, making it an ideal appetizer to kick off your meal.

Empanadas – The Iconic Savory Pastry
Empanadas are a popular dish across Latin America, originally brought by Spanish and Portuguese settlers. As migrants introduced this dish to new lands, they adapted it to local tastes. Empanadas can be filled with beef, chicken, seafood, or even vegetables. In Argentina, empanadas are a staple at celebrations and festivals, symbolizing family and community bonding.
At Sol Kitchen & Bar, we serve empanadas with two delectable fillings:
CHICKEN EMPANADA | Chimichurri mayo
