El Sol catered our end of season Track and Field banquet. They did a fabulous job! The food was excellent and plentiful and the catering staff was professional, friendly and made sure no bowl or pan stayed empty! Prior to the event, they made it easy to plan our menu. I highly recommend them if you need to have an event catered.

Visited on a busy Friday night during 3rd in the Burg but we were able to be seated quickly without a reservation. Restaurant was clean, if a little dated, and the staff was friendly and efficient. I was excited to see that they had finally updated their menu to include quite a few new vegan and vegetarian options.

Vegetarian options: 6-7 marked options on the menu, including delicious vegan potato and chorizo tacos.

Parking: Free street parking...
