Sol Mexican Cocina ( Dining / Mexican ). Located at 251 East Coast Highway, Newport Beach, 2 miles from the center of Balboa. The idea for SOL grew out of our many surf trips down the peninsula. We ate wood-grilled tacos, and fresh seafood ceviches at roadside stands. We camped under the stars on pristine beaches, and caught fish and lobster to grill over driftwood fires. We created SOL to share the uniquely fresh, simple coastal cooking of Baja and bring you the same wonderful feeling of relaxation that we love about Baja.
