Sola's works because the comfort food has clear anchors, not just broad categories. Dill-brined fried chicken, birria beef, fish and chips, poutine, wings and stone-oven pizza give the menu enough weight for repeat beach meals.

The kitchen's centre is sturdy comfort food: wings, poutine, loaded nachos, burgers, fish and chips, schnitzel, souvlaki, and a veggie curry. It is broad enough for a mixed group but still reads like a beach-town bar-and-grill.

The menu is concentrated in a clear comfort-food lane: burgers, dogs, chicken fingers, Fries, Poutine, Onion Rings, and Sweet Potato Fries. It is not trying to be broad; it is trying to be the reliable beach-day burger-and-sides stop.

The seafood side has comfort built in: Lobster Mac and Cheese, Old Bay Fried Chicken, Smash Burger, and Steak Frites give the menu heft for diners who want more than oysters and patio snacks.

SMASHED is built around the comfort-food lane, but the current menu keeps that lane focused: pressed-to-order Angus burgers, chicken sandwiches, tenders, fries, onion rings, and enough sauce-driven builds to feel intentional.
