“Nice vibe! Bright, airy and you can smell the fresh lime zest..I had breakfast with my son and it was top notch! Delicious. I am excited to try happy hour/dinner next. The service was great and such a nice surprise in a lovely spot. 🌸🙌“

“What a great experience! Had a long Memorial Day weekend, and decided to head down for a quick dinner. They were empty and it was 9pm. I actually felt bad about asking it I could eat at the bar. Patricia was so gracious and accommodating. I tried the special mini street tacos, which were amazing. She brought me a selection of hot sauces and even laughed at my stupid jokes. It was exactly what I needed after a long weekend and a long day at work. Thanks!“

“Great place with good food. I love it.“

“I usually go to the 7th Street location, but tonight I didn't want to fight downtown traffic. My waitress, Alejandra was AMAZING. Request her, seriously. The did was amazing. We ordered quesabirria, tempura tacos, guac and queso. Everything was 😍.“

“Taqueria del Sol leans more Tex-Mex than strictly traditional Mexican, but what keeps us coming back is how fresh everything tastes. It doesn’t feel like a chain at all—more like a place where the food is made daily with real ingredients and a lot of care.

We usually start with skinny margs while waiting in line (which is part of the experience). It’s surprisingly social—we’ve ended up chatting with people almost every time, and even made a few friends there.

Food-wise, we almost always kick things off with chips, fresca salsa, and queso. The guac is also really good. From there, we’ll either try the weekly special or go with a favorite: the Memphis taco. It typically comes with pork, but I always swap in roasted chicken—“Memphis, sub roasted chicken”—and it’s perfect with the jalapeño coleslaw and turnips.

A quick note: the slaw can be spicy—sometimes more than expected—but that’s part of the charm. You can tell it’s made fresh daily, so the flavors can vary a bit from visit to visit. Personally, I love that—it keeps things interesting while still being consistently delicious.

And we can’t forget the staff. Even if the food weren’t this good, we’d still come back every week for them alone. They’re fun, engaging, and part of what gives the place its unique, community feel.

If you’re looking for fresh, flavorful food with a fun, communal vibe, this place delivers every time..“

“I will definitely go here again.“

“When I first came in I smelled the aroma of what I will soon to know of the best food I’ve tasted in a while. I was greeted with a welcome home which instantly made me comfortable. I ordered the big back burrito and the man behind the counter offered me to try their new lemonade FREE OF CHARGE. Customer Service was amazing. The place was clean and well lit and the bathrooms were extremely clean. I got my burrito in 5 - 10 minutes and it was the BEST burrito I’ve ever had. 10/10 would recommend.“
