Food was okay. Menu prices are wrong. Never heard of fajitas not coming with salsa/cheese/pico sides, you have to pay an extra $4 if you want more than just store bought tortillas and meat.

Wish I could say ANYTHING. But I drove to go here for a date and get a PERFECT parking spot right out front. And then ended up having to take her home because she thought this was the "ghetto" lol. Will be back to try the food. Just ugh. Worst date

5 stars EVERY.SINGLE.TIME!!!! I can’t say enough good things about this place, from the jalapeño margaritas, to the tacos on happy hour, to the molcajete! I’ve never had a bad meal, service, or drink, and that’s with probably at least a hundred visits!

Excellent food and really solid service at a price point that I can’t argue with. I come here a couple of times a year for work lunches and try to order something other than the smothered burrito before just ordering the smothered burrito because it’s a smothered burrito. They’re a solid place to go for reliably delicious carbs.

Happy Hour at El Sol is the perfect way to end a work week. Excellent friendly service at the bar with very reasonable prices. The food is also well prepared and fresh. Enjoy!!

My order was take out so Im unable to truly speak on the service but online ordering was easy and my order was ready very quickly. The restaurant is located downtown but that didn’t impede on me finding sufficient parking. The staff greeted me upon my entering and quickly gave me my order so for those limited mins, the staff was great. I ordered the portobello mushroom and mixed vegetable tacos. The portion size was perfect. It cane with a side salad and beans. The food was plated well but it just lacked flavor. Food doesnt have to be salty but it needs to taste more than like the vegetables im eating. The mixed veggie taco was the worse and it didnt help that the shell wasnt cooked. The mushroom tacos had better flavor but still not enough for me to return. If in the area I still recommend going and deciding for yourself if the food has enough flavor. Lastly, this is my first experience ordering Mexican food and chips and salsa are not included. Minor issue but I was disappointed when it wasn’t a part of my order. If you are a chips and salsa fan like me, make sure you order some.

It was our first time here. We got seated after a short wait. The food smelt delicious. We waited for our server to greet us more than 10 minutes. We put our drinks and appetizer in. The appetizer came first and shortly after a while so did our drinks. No utensils and no napkins. The app was delicious. When we finally got to order our food, we still had bad service. Our food was unseasoned and not flavorful. Our waiter was young and obviously busy playing on his personal phone so we had to ask other servers for help. The only good part of this experience was the appetizers. Don’t waste ur time or money

Wow this place was incredible from top to bottom. The staff was super friendly and funny. They had good recommendations without upselling. The atmosphere and decor was great. No wait time even though the place was packed.The food was the star of the show though. The guac and salsa was great. The birria tacos were incredible, totally incredible. We'll definitely be back.

Food was great. Fajitas where sizzling for a long time. Extra hot sauce was provided on request and house Margirita was very good. Seemed authentic to me. !!!Parking: Parking free after 5.00pm.
