Taqueria El Sol De Jalisco

Great! great! great! Customer service ! This place has authentic Mexican food served here and has been over the years now.In my opinion they never compromise the quality of it for a buck. The produce served with your dish is fresh and not ripe.I definitely recommend anybody passing by the city of Pasadena to stop by for a bite, you will not regret it! Thanks taqueria el sol de Jalisco for always treating us like family keep up the good work and fora plus they serve fresh made corn and flour tortillas daily

My husband's enchiladas were tasteless, and the rice was over saturated with tomato. Everyone knows Mexican rice is cooked with tomato, but this rice was dripping with tomato juice and was too acidic. My burrito was ok. It too had very little flavor. The salsa served with the chips was very good, but not authentic Mexican salsa. The food was very cheap.

I am surprised I have not yet reviewed this place. It single handedly taught me a few vital lessons about living and surviving in Texas. About five years ago, I walked in during my lunch hour. I ordered some kind of Mexican steak and as soon as I put the first little bit in my mouth... tears started rolling down my eyes. Tears came and went for a good 15 minutes. I guess I just had a lot of extra tears that day. My coworker asked me if I was OK, and the only thing I could answer was a very low: "It's spicy." And spicy it WAS!! I cursed the cook in my mind (I take it back now) and wondered why they would do such a horrible thing!! Little did I know that Texas is ALL about spicy food! Lesson #1: Always ask if there is any ingredient in the food that would make it spicy (because asking if it spicy usually fails, nothing is spicy to these people!). Lesson #2: Make sure you repeat that you want it MILD or to just hold everything spicy!! My overall experience in the restaurant has always been good though. Very inexpensive food. Good service and convenient location. I just went back today and still feel it is good traditional Mexican food. I do have to be careful because sometimes, out of nowhere a little bit of jalapeño will pop up in my mouth! This time I ordered the shrimp platter and made sure the jalapenos were nowhere near my food!! I have now been in Texas 5 years, and the lessons learned that day have stayed with me all this time! Now that you know spicy food makes me cry, please don't offer me any. Thanks!

This restaurant was inexpensive and sooo Soo good. They gave us 2 types of salsa with our chips (one warm and one cold) and they were both delicious. The caldo de Res was the best I've ever had, and my Husband and Daughter loved their fajitas and quesadillas. Our waitress did not speak English but took excellent care of us. The portions were generous and flavorful. I'll be back next time I'm in the area!

It's located in the heart of "Old Pasadena", so it couldn't get more authentically Mexican! My wife and I ate breakfast here. She had the chilaquiles rojos, and I had the large menudo. Both meals could easily feed more than one person, as we both kept sharing. Everything was hot, freshly made to order. For us, it was worth crossing the Washburn tunnel just for this! #Saturdaymorningdoneright

First time going. Got barbacoa breakfast tacos with eggs, cheese and refried beans on flour tortilla. The green salsa is probably the only flavor of this. Barely any egg and the meat doesn't have a lot of flavor. Would go back and try other things. Flour tortillas are really good though.

Pretty good food but not hot enough temperature wise. Attentive waitress, clean but did not feel like a real good Mexican restaurant. Chips are given in a plastic bag for all to share at your table but not enough in the bag for more than two people yet only one of each sauce to share among everyone.Had to ask to bring separate salsas so we didn't share double dipped chips in the same sauce.Would try again but would not go out of my way for it.Ordered the chile rojo pork special since they have a different special every day of the week.Just ok not the best IMO.

Solid, fast and friendly. You can wotk your way around the menu for healthy choices or just go crazy. Only thing missing is carne guisada on the menu.

These breakfast tacos are amazing it was so delicious! it was ready very quickly and they were cheap doesn't get any better!!!!

Ordered Caldo de Res and it was flavorless all you could taste was tomato sauce the soup was red of how much sauce it had the meat and veggies were so hard. That's the worst $10.00 I've spent had to throw away all the food because of its overpowered tomato flavor. First time trying & do not plan on going back!
