Meet the owner

At only 26 years old, Nic Solano has already been working in a kitchen for more than a decade. Growing up in his family’s Salt & Pepper Restaurante Mexicano, which was originally opened by his grandfather in Bowness in 1988, Nic gained plenty of experience that allowed him to explore culinary opportunities throughout Calgary. Now, Nic is back with the family business, working as kitchen manager at Salt & Pepper’s Inglewood location.

Born in Tezoalta, Oaxaca, Nic’s grandfather Silvio Solano immigrated to Canada in 1969 and started making a name for himself in the culinary world almost immediately. By 1988, he was ready to open his own restaurant to showcase the authentic Mexican flavours that had inspired him all his life. According to Nic, Calgary was lacking true Mexican options, and his grandfather’s restaurant helped fill that niche – and continues to do so to this day.

Salt & Pepper is very open and inviting. The food and service was really great. The waitress recommended a few entree's to try and she was right, they were excellent.
