I came here the first time with my friends and their family. The staff was so friendly and accommodating! All of the food was delicious. The complimentary chips and salsa has the right amount a heat. I had the carne asada, and it was perfectly cooked. The margaritas aren't too sweet, which is perfect for me, because overly sweet drinks give me heartburn. I highly recommend supporting this family-owned business!

Amazing experience. Adan was the best server!!The drinks are so good and kept flowing. I had the steak fajitas and i didn’t even need a knife, everything was soft and cooked perfectly. My friend got the enchiladas and they were so flavorful! Definitely come here!!

If you want great service, delicious margaritas, flavorful authentic Mexican food this is the best spot to go to. One of my favorite Mexican restaurants that never disappoints. They even have mezcal & tequila flights if you are feeling bold! Everything is made fresh and delicious!

If you’re looking for a great place to dine with family or friends I highly recommend Mas Allá del Sol! The service and food quality is top tier whether you’re there for brunch or dinner, you can’t go wrong!
We have been to Mas Alla del Sol numerous times and it is one of my wife's favorite restaurants. She typically gets the red snapper (huachinango) and I get the lamb shank. They do a great ceviche, and the mixed drinks are also great.Kid-friendliness: Crayons are provided for kids

Really pretty place, food and service is good, also drinks are strong 5 stars on that. Only thing is that in my opinion it's really pricy for what it is. I love a good Mexican restaurant and I've been to many, many of them in the area and you can get similar quality, atmosphere and service elsewhere for a much more affordable price. I came here before, during the covid Era, and I remember that being my only complaint. But I thought you know covid.. you wanna support local family owned business. However, went back again today and honestly that's still my only complaint. Pricy.

Edit; I’m pouring over all my reviews and downgrading any 5 star I can’t remember to 4. This place fell victim to that. I’m sure it’s good. But it’s not 5 stars.

It was a great ambience, the chips came immediately and we very well done. The salsa was the perfect consistency for most people. I prefer mine a little thicker and hotter but I'm a little different. We had ceviche which I love, but I'm more of a barebones ceviche guy, so the additional tomato paste gave it a sweetness that wasn't my preference. Freshness was amazing though. The margaritas were good. I had the blood orange and pomegranate, while my friend had mango. If you want something a bit sweeter, definitely go with mango. He had the salmon while I had their specialty the Tampiqena. Mine was the clear winner, but I typically do not order salmon from restaurants. It was good, but I feel they have so many better options. Great meal with great service. Bear in mind if you go with a bigger group, they don't split checks, so get Tab or something ready.

I recently dined at Mas Alla Del Sol restaurant, and the experience was nothing short of exceptional. The staff displayed incredible attention, particularly towards my grandmother and parents, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The food was not only delicious but surpassed expectations, with standout cocktails adding to the delightful experience. The nachos, in particular, are a must-try—forget the ordinary, these are a flavorful departure that alone justifies the one-hour drive to this wonderful establishment. The genuine care extended to my family made the visit truly special, and for that, we are immensely grateful.

I have eaten at this restaurant many times, ordering many different items from the menu, and am never disappointed. The service is friendly and professional. Some people may find it a tad loud, but I think it's the right combination of lively and fun, and I have never had an issue having conversations with dining companions. If you haven't eaten here yet, add it to your list for 2024.

Maybe we need a more extensive dine-in experience with this place as other reviewers have recounted. Due to the late hour because of a flight delay, we opted for take-out of chicken enchiladas with molé sauce and found the sauce along with the beans to be on the thin and runny side, an unfortunate surprise given that (as others have pointed out) this restaurant is a tad pricier.
