past solare events

Below is a list of past Solare events.

December 29 - Odd Bins! Help finish off some great wines! We buy a lot of great wines from all across Italy and all along the west coast of North America. Petra, Tommy, and I just did an inventory of our wine cellar — and we have lots of wine where we have just one or two bottles left. With just one or two bottles, we really can’t place them on our wine list – so now is the time to finish them off. And we need your help! So on this evening (and Tuesday, December 29 also) we will be opening many-many bottles and offering fun eclectic tasting flights at bargain prices. Here’s how it works: From 5pm to closing we will have a large selection of wines available in 2oz and 4oz tasting pours. Many of the 2oz pours are just $2! We also have a couple surprise “high-end” wines that we decided to include to spice things up! You can have the wines at your table over dinner … or just hanging out at the bar or lounge. If you like wine – you can’t miss this. ~~ Contact us for more details

December 25 - Christmas – Solare is Closed Solare is closed all day on Christmas to allow our Team to be with their families.

December 24 - Christmas Eve Dinner at Solare Please join us for a special Christmas Eve dinner — a Holiday Feast with traditional dishes from Sicily! Chef Accursio will be sharing family recipes that he learned from his Mother and Grandmother back in Sicily. It is a 4-course dinner that Chef Accursio designed with a couple special surprises. The dinner is $59++ for adults and we can definitely do something simpler for kids with our kid’s menu. ~~ RSVP.

December 16 - January 03 - Solare Outdoor Pizza Oven is Open! Guess What?! We are excited to announce that the Solare Team completed a new project. Yes, we designed and built a “mobile” wood-fired pizza oven and its name is “Pizzeria al Volo” which means “Pizzeria on the Fly”. We will start out by supplying fabulous pizzas for the new Ice Rink that just opened behind Solare. We will be here by the Ice Rink until January 3rd when the Ice Rink closes. Then we will be taking the oven on the road (“Flying Pizzeria”) for catering and other special events. The Solare Outdoor Pizza Oven is now on the grassy area behind Solare and right by the Ice Rink. Come check us out! Hope to see you here.

December 15 - Season’s Seasonings in Italy – Winter Our good friend, Stefano Poggi of Batasiolo Winery in Piemonte, took the lead in organizing this great dinner. 3 restaurants, 4+ chefs, and amazing wines including Batasiolo 2007 Barolo DOCG Briccolina are going to collaborate to put on a culinary extravaganza. Featuring: Chefs Cassineri Mario and Francesca Penoncelli from Bice San Diego ~ Chef Accursio Lota from Solare Ristorante ~ and Chef Stefano Ceresoli from Piazza 1909. This is the first in a series of events celebrating the seasons like only true, authentic Italians can. Wine and dine to your heart’s content on real Italian expressions. The menu will be finalized soon, but just to whet your appetite- the welcome appetizer will be a whole suckling pig paired with the new (unofficial launch in California) The Independent Prosecco. The dinner is $89++ and please reserve directly with Bice where our dinner will be located: (619) 239-2423.

December 09 - Italian Truffle Dinner We are in Italian Truffle Season! We do marvelous things with white and black Italian Truffles (Tartufo!) and we are excited to do it this night. We have an amazing source for freshly foraged Italian Truffles and we will be getting them flown in just in time for the dinner. These are fresh aromatic delicious never-to-be-forgotten Italian Black and White Truffles. Chef Accursio is designing a 5-course dinner and the price is $240/person. Yes, fresh Italian Truffles are expensive – but note that we do work to keep the dinner as reasonable as possible. The expensive part is the Truffles, of course, and we do not mark them up at all. We just divide our cost by the guests attending so you can enjoy this special delicacy without breaking the bank … too much! The dinner is limited in seating and starts at 6:45pm. Truffles! ~~ Contact us for tickets. ~~ View Menu Here
