The place was clean and the place is nice although the waiter did try to up sell us at all times. For example we asked what was better of the 2 plates and she ignored the 2 options and chose the most expensive plate that was on that page. When we asked for the fajitas, she said so the texan fajitas that where twice the price. I got the golden tacos and they where great with a side of rice and beans. First time good place. Employees nice but ours tried to upsell us.

Craving a stellar Taco Tuesday experience? Look no further than El Sol, where the vibrant atmosphere meets a menu that sings with flavor. From an impressive array of tequilas that would make any aficionado swoon, to mouthwatering tacos served in a space bursting with character and charm—this spot is a fiesta for the senses.
And when it comes to margaritas in Harrisonburg, I’ve sipped my way through many—but Tommy’s Margaritas stands in a league of its own. Bold, balanced, and beautifully crafted, it’s easily one of the finest pours in town.

El Sol was a great time for us. We had the birria tacos and the carne asada tacos and both were packed with flavor. The supreme nachos were the perfect way to start the meal, easily one of the best appetizers we’ve had in a while.

What really stood out was the atmosphere. The calm music, the relaxed vibe, and the fact that my wife and our three kids had an absolute blast made the whole experience even better. Great food, great energy, and a place we’ll definitely be coming back to.

El Sol is a fantastic spot for authentic Mexican cuisine. The tacos are perfectly seasoned and bursting with flavor, and the corn tortillas are a standout. Don’t miss the sopes and gorditas, they are topped with fresh lettuce and crema. The friendly staff enhances the welcoming atmosphere. If you’re looking for genuine flavors, El Sol is a must-visit!

Seems like a very authentic Mexican restaurant as most patrons are Hispanic. It was good to see large families using the big tables in separate rooms.

Main complaints is the online ordering system. Ordered a quesadilla, then had to Google translate the toppings. The only choice for lettuce and tomato was “on the side”, which was odd. When we recieved the food, all of the cheese was on one side of the tortilla. We had to eat a burrito not a quesadilla. Good price, good taste.

Dont eat the steak tacos. We Ordered 16 steak tacos for our work employees and respective families. Every one of us including the family members we brought home tacos to eat have had food poisoning last two days. My daughter kept saying it doesnt smell right and none of us believed her. She got lucky and didnt eat more than one before refusing to eat more. Its unfortunate the restaurant has a great reputation locally. But food definitely got us sick.

Called to place an order at 5:37pm today 3/1 and was told it’d be 15 minutes, upon arriving at 5:56pm I come to find out they did not put my order then so I then had to wait and did not get my food until around 6:15. Employees were not even apologetic about the inconvenience of having to wait about 38 minutes total for 3 orders of food and that makes me not want to order from here again.

Very authentic taco spot with agua frescas (jamaica is my favorite). They also had delicious sides like the guacamole and homemade chips and Mexican rice!! 10/10

Worst customer service. I went to pick up my sisters Togo order so that my 9 month pregnant sister didn’t have to go and 2 men walk in right behind me and they got helped before I did wasn’t greeted asked what I needed or anything is it because I’m a young lady? I had to call the store just for somebody to come up front Then we were trying to figure out what order was mine and they asked me was the name under this name I told them no told them the name gave me the wrong food then we called them and the MOD on 10/20/2025 had the audacity to catch an attitude to tell me a buying customer it was my fault. As somebody who works in the food industry no matter the customer is right wrong your goal is to create a good experience for the customer and y’all created the worst.

We did end up going back to then get the correct order, refunded for the difference, and was offered 2 free drinks but that does not excuse the customer service we received at first by the employee.
