The Eden Gardens neighborhood of Solana Beach is the launching point for many Mexican eateries that gradually grew from tiny cafes into successful restaurants. Among them is Tony's Jacal (Tony's Little Hut), a spacious place that serves a… Read More

Tony's Jacal Restaurant Review

The Jacal family has owned, managed and staffed this Solana Beach Mexican eatery since 1946. The setting is festive, especially the garden patio with its gurgling fountain and twinkle lights; the margaritas are consistently tasty; and the food might be prepared with a twist, with several dishes made with turkey instead of chicken. We like the crispy turkey tacos or the healthful turkey salad...

Editorial Review

Traditional Mexican specialities served spicy and authentic in the same hacienda-style abode since the 1940s.

I've watched Tony's Jacal grow from a small one room cantina to a bustling restaurant without sacrificing quality. As authentic as it gets, this is my favorite place to eat. Great burritos and turkey tacos....it's all yummy!

The food is so so yummy! It's a bit expensive for Mexican food, but the crab quesadillas and turkey flautas are really good.

Tony's is excellent core Mexican food served in a family environment. The chips and salsa are addicting. The menu is very extensive and one of my favorites is the turkey tacos with a side of rice, the pot of beans and cabbage salad.The service is outstanding, and it is amazing how fast the food is a your table. Highly recommend this beloved little spot. There's even an aviary outside with a ton...

enormous options! I like the flavors and the sharp taste of the food in here, the fusion really did them some good because they have the best of both worlds.

Down the street from where I work on occasion, I went here after being told another place nearby was better. HOWEVER, I didn't regret my decision to try it. Fantastic service, salsa is amazing, the birds on the property are really cool, nice outdoor patio, quiet neighborhood, and awesome food. GO and you won't regret it.

Tips about this business (5)

Traditional Mexican specialities served spicy and authentic in the same hacienda-style abode since the 1940s.

Fun Fact: Tony and his wife Catalina originally opened the restaurant over 40 years ago on the site of his parents' home. The couples children and grand children still operate on the same space today, though extensively expanded and remodeled over the years.

What to Order: The Mexican meatball soup called Albondigas is done very well here, and the chef is also famous for perfect chile rellenos.
