“Good atmosphere Great food and service“

“Overall the food was ok

🌯: juicy and flavourful
🌮: small but tasty nevertheless

The “house chips” i.e. crips is the one to avoid😐it was waaaaay too salty and you can visibly see salt grains 😒

Bonus: you get a good view of the Alcatraz 😅“

“I came with my family here, very clean place, clean restroom, clean everything, good food. Fast service, but please ladies from the front (customer service) smile, you take care of the customer like robots, next, thank you , next, thank you next. I was looking at every single person that was receiving their orders to make sure that chips are given to some odres or to every order. We order two burritos, one pupusa and twelve tacos. We did not received chips at all. I saw people that purchase tacos , receiving their chips, this wasn’t my case. No one gave us our chips😟“

“Came to eat here because we wanted to try something new and we were not disappointed. We tried the chicken, carnitas, lengua, chorizo, asada and pastor. All were flavorful i think my favorite was the chorizo :) the only Down side is that it’s a small place 4 spots to sit inside and the rest of the tables are outside. I’m not sure of they have bathroom either but I will definitely be back to try the other items on the menu !“

“Very nice restaurant with plenty of room for indoor/outdoor gatherings. The food and service was excellent. I will be returning soon! 😊“

“Seriously, best burrito in North Marin. Repeating this post because 1) Facebook asked me to write a formal review and 2) it's too empty when I've gone and I want people to keep them in business!“

“Best Mexican food I've had in a long time!“

“Great food, service and atmosphere!!!“

“My partner and I came into the location today on a whim. We were pleasantly surprised. We loved our super burrito and horchata. Both were delicious and some of the best we have had in the area for sure. Will definitely be coming back to this location in the future!“

“Fantastic artisan food. Handmade corn tortillas & quesadillas made from organic corn ground daily in house. Farmers Market ingredients & sustainably sourced proteins. Local new chef/owner & partner are committed to building a community hub around food made with LOVE!“

“This place was so cute and tasted amazing! We came to visit Tiburon for the first time and came across this cute spot. The staff/ owners were so sweet and helpful. The ceviche and arroz con leche were 5/5. I would definitely come back when we’re in the area. 10/10 spot!“

“Went here for a somewhat large family gathering. While not the best Mexican food I've ever had the quality was good. Every one in the group seemed to enjoy their meals and my steak burrito hit the spot. Margaritas were pretty good too. Staff were friendly and attentive.
I would suggest you guys take orders at the table like a normal restaurant instead of making us go up to the front desk and order. I get that you are probably short staffed but getting our group of over 10 people to the front of the restaurant and ordered took way longer than was necessary, and we ended up making other customers wait while we got everything sorted.
While I don't mind paying for my meal before I eat it, if you are paying with a credit card it means you have to tip before receiving service, which just seems backwards to me (a tip should be a thank you).
Would go back again.“

“I loved it. Great Mexican food. Miss this in Hawaii“

“Started going there in 1980 and have never stopped❤️🙏🏻♥️“

“Good food, good service, and an excellent value. I've been going to this place for over 20 years and the staff know me very well. The salsa bar and fresh chips have always been a nice perk that set its apart from other places which have come and gone. It's always busy around lunchtime and parking lot can packed but they get orders out quickly. I usually get my food to go but dining in is a pretty comfortable experience. They've steadily upgraded the interior over the years and recently got all new tables/chairs.“

“Made a lunch stop with good friends. We had the restaurant almost to ourselves. Great decor and great service. I’ll be sure to go back if I’m ever in Novato!!“

“It was super busy the other night and getting seated inside took a bit, but oh man! Super tasty, as always, and tried the chicken Torta, which was the best I have had.“

“Wow! This place is so charming. My party of 4 went here last min before going into downtown and it was not disappointing. The server was super respectful that we were on a bit of a time crunch. We were the only ones there which must have helped to get our food out fast. Love the decoration on the wall and the big windows!“

“My family and I have been going to El Sol since 1984. The food is excellent, reasonable, large selection, quantity and the staff are so friendly, it’s like one big family. Their enchilada sauce is my favorite!“

“Wanted to try the quesabirria & birria tacos. We were not disappointed! Will go back and want to try the mole buffet on weekends“

“Wow! This place is great. We had the Chile Verdi Plate and a salad with shrimp. The plate was a good size portion and both were delicious. I loved the vinaigrette dressing on the salad and the flavor on the shrimp. We’ll be back to try more- in saw the nachos as we were leaving and they looked devine.

The outdoor area was really pleasant as well. We had a very good meal here.

Edit to add- both the grilled chicken burrito and the butternut squash burrito were fantastic. The squash had a delicious char to it.“

“I lived close by and dropped in one day to check out the eats. The Chile Colorado peaked my interest, and it was like "Heaven"! . So pretty much every time since, the friendly staff would remember me and my passion for it. They'd see me walk in the door and instantly know... Chile Colorado! :) ( pro tip- while you wait, walk over to the painfully slow Safeway next door , buy Jardine's ghost pepper salsa and add a generous portion on top)“

“Glad to have found this restaurant. Since moving to San Rafael, I’ve been missing and looking for authentic Mexican food. The other Mexican restaurants I’ve tried in San Rafael don’t compare to this restaurant. Fast and friendly service. Clean interior with cheerful decoration and atmosphere. Finally, the food is well seasoned and flavorful. Definitely hits the spot!“

“Todo está muy delicioso recomiendo las enchiladas de cangrejo el salmón ala parrilla y también los huevos rancheros las quesabirrias están muy buenas también sin contar que fin de seman tiene barbacoa de borrego con consomé y menudo“

“They're refried beans are the best most authentic homemade beans you can find.
Get the burrito.
You won't be disappointed.
Also their homemade salsa is always fresh and delicious.. it tastes freshly made every day. The workers are very efficient and friendly..“

“Excellent food and always high quality. This is one of my favorite places to order from!“

“Always outstanding Food & Service we going to this place for over 15 years :-)“

“The food was served Hot and Fresh and the serving was very generous! I ordered the Steak and Nopal and my girlfriend ordered the Tacos Birria. We chose to eat outside and they had Vicente Fernandez playing on the speaker, We both rate it 5 stars! Gracias ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Flores has come up with excellent new vegan items recently. We came with a party and they had created a pre fixe menu for us. Everything from the chips and guac, oyster mushroom ceviche to the veggie bowl and beyond meat parrillada was very flavorful, fresh and generously portioned. Ask for the vegan menu!“

“Visiting from Adelaide Australia best Mexican we have had. Great service.“

“la comida es deliciosa, tienen muy buenos precios y el lugar es espectacular......los baños están súper limpios y decorados ..... la gente del servicio es muy amable, realmente lo recomiendo !!“

“Been eating at Celia's for over 30 years. It's been a few years, but went there recently and it was still awesome. The food has never changed, simple but delicious. And one thing the staff has worked there forever, they are friendly and always welcoming. 😁😋“

“absolutely the best tamales I have ever had at a restaurant. I'd swear they were home made if I hadn't ordered them myself... super find!!! I'll never order from anywhere else again.“

“After dropping off the Winghavers Barleyhoot to Gilligan Wormwood out at his ranch, the Wicked Minnow, I headed straight to the Taqueria Mi Familia for one of their famously amazing quesadillas!
Simple yet complex in flavors, the ingredients meld together perfectly.
5 stars all day long. ☆☆☆☆☆“

“Best food superb service quality mix with authentic flavors“

“Recomiendo este negocio para cualquier evento. Un sabor único, las personas muy amables y responsables. La comida está bien sabrosa.“

“La mejor cochinita que he probado, unos ricos panuchos de Cochinita“

“visiting from Portland and trying to dine local. This place was clean, prompt service and the food was so fresh and delicious. Looks like a place lots of locals come, always good. Good dog watching.“

“The best in the neighborhood! Affordable, fresh, delicious Mexican food. The tacos are great and the seafood dishes are awesome. Highly recommended.“

“Had just arrived in San Francisco, and hit the road heading to Sonoma for a wedding this weekend. Looking for a place to have lunch and we found Avatars on line. So, we decided to try it, and we are glad we did. Our meals were cooked fresh to order and they were delicious! Friendly staff and a place we will fondly remember and look forward to trying again on our next trip out here!!“

“Excellent place to try! Great staff and great food“

“Such a hidden gem on Pier 39! The customer service here is truly amazing—everyone was so kind and welcoming. I believe the owner took our order, and he was incredibly patient, friendly, and made us feel right at home. You can really tell they care about their customers.

The location is unbeatable with a perfect view, and the space itself is super clean, calm, and relaxing—such a nice break from the busy pier. We weren’t very hungry, so we ordered the nachos and a quesadilla, and both were delicious. Definitely recommend them!

This place deserves way more recognition. If you’re on Pier 39 and want great service, good food, and a beautiful, relaxing atmosphere, don’t skip this spot. We’ll for sure be back! 🌊✨“

“The chicken is good sometime dry , I come often today was the same family meal, the only decent side was beans the rest mash potato and Mac and cheese was half full, was not busy day but I don’t know very disappointed!!! When I opened at home !!!!“
