If you ask any true taco connoisseur what defines a great meal, they won’t start with the meat or the salsa. They’ll start with the foundation: the tortilla. At the new Soliz Casa de Tacos, we’ve brought a specialized craft to the local community, one that has established us as the premier Mexican restaurant Richmond, TX has to offer.
The “secret weapon” behind our flavor isn’t actually a secret at all; it’s our commitment to serving homemade tortillas that Richmond residents can taste the difference in with every single bite.
The Art of the Daily Press

In a world of mass-produced, store-bought wraps, we choose the path of tradition. Every morning at our Richmond location, the rhythmic sound of the tortilla press marks the start of our day. We don’t believe in preservatives or “shelf-stable” bread. To us, a tortilla is a living part of the dish.
Our process is rooted in culinary heritage:
- Fresh Dough: We start with high-quality masa for our corn tortillas and a specialized blend for our flour tortillas, mixed to the perfect consistency.
- The Perfect Heat: Each tortilla is griddled on a hot comal until it achieves that signature puff, a sign of a perfectly hydrated dough.
- Small Batches: We cook in small increments throughout the day. This ensures that the taco you order at 1:00 PM is served on a tortilla that was likely pressed just minutes before.
Why “Homemade” Matters for Authenticity
As hospitality professionals, we know that the texture of a tortilla changes everything. A store-bought tortilla acts merely as a vessel, often becoming chewy or dry. A Soliz homemade tortilla, however, is an active ingredient.
Our flour tortillas are soft, pillowy, and carry a slight buttery richness that complements our savory Carne Asada. Our corn tortillas have a deep, toasted maize aroma that provides the perfect earthy balance to our spicy Al Pastor. This dedication to quality is why Soliz is quickly becoming the go-to Mexican restaurant that Richmond foodies recommend to their friends.

When you visit us at 11131 Harlem Road, you’re seeing a legacy of flavor in action. Whether you are stopping in for a quick lunch or grabbing a dozen tortillas to take home for your own kitchen, you are experiencing the gold standard of Mexican soul food.
