SOL Mexican Grill

I got in right before a closing rush so they were out of what I really wanted but I was prefaced that this was a better quality chipotle. I had a chicken and rice bowl with a side of guacamole. It was pretty good. Not as flavorful as chip but definitely good. I would say a more authentic, healthy version and they have churros!! The guacamole was great and fresh as can be for a long day. The ladies that served me were kind and helpful despite the rush and the late arrival. The inside gives hole in the wall, it's cute but I'm not sure I would want to eat in there if it wasn't early afternoon. They gave me extra sauce for free

Visit: 12.16.23Food: it was just ok! I was expecting my dish to have so many flavors. When we walked in, it smelled absolutely delicious but after getting my hefty quesadilla. My palate thought otherwise. I chose the chicken quesadilla. The young lady loaded up the ingredients but it was just blah aka bland. The ingredients station appeared as if they cooked the food last night. I was there at 12:45pm, it should've been better looking than that. The YELLOW RICE: was so old looking that I opted for white rice and it was pretty fresh. Service: the staff were very nice. Two women making food and I would say they were pretty attentive. Ambiance: it too was nothing impressive but I did like the seating area inside with spacious tables. I honestly believe that it just wasn't our time to get sick because the food line could not have been properly maintained. The meats were cold and the beans were just sitting in their own canned juices.Prices: pretty pricey but our quesadilla was loaded with items from their bar.

We go here at least once a week! They know my kids by name, and they remember my order! The service is always great! The food is all tasty! I am partial to the burritos, because then I have lunch the next day as well! It's perfect for a group of four because the tables have four chairs, but there are a couple sets of tables. Love this place!

After a few negative experiences at Sol, I took a break for several years. Tonight, I went back with the assumption that restaurants, like people, evolve. I was wrong. It was once again, a two-star experience. Here's why:1) Food: Although the tacos come filled well, they lack taste compared to most taco spots in the area. The queso is okay, but still lacks the flavor kick you'd expect.2) Ordering: I ordered online, double checked my order and showed up at the appropriate time. Easy enough. Nope. When I checked my order, queso was missing and half the tacos came on corn v. flour. 3) Customer Service: When I asked about the incorrect order, the staff were cold and disconnected. They said they can't do anything. Eventually, they gave me queso, but only after insisting they check my order to verify my story. If you want quality tacos, skip Sol and head to Taco City DC south of H Street NE in the Navy Yard area.

The Taco Tuesday makes it possible to have yummy affordable tacos in DC. The $2.50 tacos include one protein and two toppings, or otherwise you'd be charged for extras.These tacos are American style and I enjoyed this combination:One carne asada tacoPico de galloCheeseFlour tortillaOne veggie taco with guacamoleBlack beansCheeseFlour tortillaAnd is a great deal. I'd be back for the Taco Tuesdays.

This is no joke one of the best mexican places in DC right now, no one ever talks about it for some reason?? This is better than chipotle seriously the food here is amazing every single thing about this place is 10/10, from the decorations, the service, even the lines! I come here all the time especially on taco Tuesdays and there is never a line and if there is its always pickup so basically no wait!

This place is amazing! Great food for a casual dining restaurant, quesadilla is unreal

10 out of 10 hands down best bowl I've had in a long time!! Chipotle is a dupe for SOL they can not compete in taste, quality, or portion sizes. I will be back !!

Just tried the new Dupont Circle location, and I was really disapointed. The corn tortillas were the worst I've ever had...rubbery and tasteless. The proteins were all decent, but nothing special, and $5 for a taco is too much. There are about a half dozen better, cheaper taco places in the neighborhood. The only thing I really liked was the fish taco.
