Had a wonderful time at this restaurant. The staff was super friendly and they helped make our friend's birthday even more special. And the food was really good. Very authentic.

My family and I have been coming to El Sol since it opened well over 20 years ago. We even went to their first location on O’Connor before that. The food is so good and the quality excellent. We always get the guacamole and love to share the platters for 2. The food here is authentic Mexican, made from the heart. Yes, service is slow, but have you been to Mexico? As I said, authentic!

Pretty good Mexican food in a really fun environment. Stopped by for lunch and got the tacos aguilenos, tacos adobados, and guacamole. Both tacos had a fair amount of meat and the mole was tasty and earthy. The guacamole meanwhile was rich and smooth. Food was a bit pricey for the portion sizes but everything is expensive these days.

The star of the show though was the place and the people. Decor and music were so colorfully vibrant, and the people were so welcoming and kind. This place definitely has a great vibe!

The worst service ever! Don’t go there ! A very rude chef who doesn’t understand its customers! Regrets I spent my money

Delicious authentic Mexican food, perfect amount of spice. Margaritas are a must. Accommodated our group of 11 people last minute. Fun atmosphere. Thank you!

Our family spontaneously went out for dinner. We found El Sol by accident. We had such a good time! Service and food were excellent. We did not feel rushed which gave us time to catch up with our adult kids. We would absolutely visit again

We had the meat platter for two and it was delicious with great portions. The tostadas could have had a bit more flavour but everything else was absolutely phenomenal. Our only issue is that we asked for the pork parts (we dont eat pork) of the platter to be replaced with vegetable versions (which clearly exist in the vegetable platter for two) but the restaurant refused to do so...
