Stopped by after work for a few margaritas and a quick bite. Came to el mirasol because of their infamous chispas! I ordered their seltzer chispa which was alright, plain. I wasn't offered to add any flavors but on my second round I got a strawberry chispa which was great. Super yummy!We shared an order of guacamole and chicken quesadillas which were good. Chips and salsa were complimentary. Prices are definitely a bit on the high side. The restaurant was busy on a Friday afternoon so make your way over as soon as you can. Would definitely return. Good vibes, nice people.

Kudos for accommodating an extra large group of hungry hikers for breakfast : DOur hiking group moderator reserved ahead of time a couple of tables and they were ready for us. Complimentary chips and a mild salsa were table side. I went ahead and asked for some additional spicy salsas- a habanero and a green. Def both better than the mild! I poured most of it over my breakfast tacos lolWe ordered some barbacoa breakfast tacos, a pork taco, and a chorizo and egg taco. The barbacoa tacos stood out and I appreciated seeing a thick slice of avocados on them. I'm glad we checked our bill as we were overcharged by almost two bucks on one of our tacos! I'm sure it was a mistake, and thankfully we were able to get it fixed. Breakfast tacos were good, a little pricey though....

If you're looking for tasty food and strong drinks, you've found the right spot. Tucked away in a back corner of the Alon shopping center, you'll find a neighborhood favorite. Our go-to order are the Fiesta Nachos; nachos topped with chicken, steak, and shrimp. It's a great sampler and doesn't leave you feeling overstuffed )the portions are generous here). They're known for their chispas; the drink is so infamous at this location that the staff have tshirts with "chispa" on them...and they are STRONG (as are most of the drinks).It took a little bit for us to get our order in, but they get your drink orders placed really quickly. Inside is pretty big, almost cavernous, so it gets a little loud, but parking is free wherever you can find a spot.

Beautiful restaurant, great waitstaff and wonderful food. Even though we arrived at 6:00 pm on a busy Saturday night, the wait was not so bad because you are able to purchase a drink and sit outside while you wait. Once seated our water Pepe was great! My table shared the queso with ground beef which was great! I ordered the Chile En Nogada and it was so goood!! You must try a Chispa while dining here . I will definitely be back.

This place is fun and great! I love Tex Mex and this place had some delicious offerings. Ordered a chispa which is strong and smooth.Our waitress was so nice! Loved the experience here. I ordered the shrimp enchiladas with two sauces. These are generous and delicious. I love that you get chips and salsa too. Everything was fresh and I just loved the creamy cilantro and poblano options. Great time!

As always, food was delicious!! I tried the grilled stuffed pablano pepper and it was amazing!! I love their salsa as well. The service was great and I didn't have to wait for a refill on my water ever. It was quieter when we arrived at 6 but filled up quickly by 6:30! Even so, it never felt too loud or crowded. Love the ambiance!Prices are higher than other places, but the food is delish and it's nearby so we love El Mirasol for a nice night out!

El Mirasol is not just a restaurant; it's a vibrant celebration of Mexican cuisine, where the margaritas are as legendary as the tales you'll tell after visiting. The Chispas margaritas, a house specialty, are a testament to simplicity meeting perfection. Among the array of flavors, the guava margarita stands out with its refreshing and authentic taste, making it a must-try.The Carne a la Tampiqueña was a delightful surprise. Generously portioned, the carne was seasoned and cooked to tender perfection. It's served alongside scrumptious beans and rice, creating a harmonious plate that satisfies both the eye and the palate.Appetizers at El Mirasol deserve their own accolade. The fresh guacamole is a creamy, flavorful journey to the heart of Mexican cuisine, while the Choriqueso is a cheesy, mouthwatering delight that perfectly complements the crispness of the chips.What truly sets El Mirasol apart is its exceptional service. The staff was wonderfully attentive, effortlessly accommodating our large party with a warmth that made us feel like family. The ambiance, too, adds to the charm, offering both cozy indoor and lively outdoor seating options. Additionally, the TVs at the bar make it an ideal spot to catch a game.In essence, El Mirasol is more than just a dining destination; it's a place where you can enjoy a game, cherish moments with family, or unwind with friends. It's a symphony of flavors, warmth, and joy, making every visit a memorable one. Whether you're a local or just passing through, El Mirasol is a culinary gem that promises a delightful experience.
