We enjoyed the food immensely. The service was great. The atmosphere was a mix of authentic and small town (just what we were looking for).

Our family loves El Sol! Staff is so kind and attentive. They always remember you and have my kids’ orders memorized. Food is incredible. We’ve tasted most of the menu and have no complaints. They can accommodate large parties which is a big plus as well.

This is the best food in the town of Okland, IA, and probably in a 25 mile radius. Every time I visit the town for work I make it a point to eat here, and bring coworkers every time. I’m surprised more people don’t frequent the place. I try to sample different dishes. Today was the Chicken garcia burrito. Not super spicy, I had to add some salsa, but we’ll balanced in rice, chicken, cheese and lettuce. I had in the past some shrimp plates and they were excellent. They made for me a few years ago a camerones diabla dish, which wasn’t on the menu, but I had mentioned it and the waitress asked the cook and they made it happen!

So good! This is by far my family’s favorite place to grab dinner. Very good, filling, reasonably priced for what you get. Margaritas are always good. Family favorites include the shrimp chimichangas, the chicken fajitas, and the Chile Colorado burrito.

This place is tucked away on the hill side. If you don’t know where it is you can miss it easily. Pretty typical Mexican food. I’ve been here several times and the food it always good and consistent. It is always nice to have options in a small town besides the typical dinner and that is what this place is.

Pretty impressed for our first visit! Staff were welcoming, and multiple people checked on us the hour we were there. Our drinks were kept full, and chips and Pico De Gallo were too. They have a rather unique cabbage Pico De Gallo. I had Tres Amigos and she ordered the Steak Ranchero. Both dishes were flavorful, and the meat tender and juicy. Not very spicy as far as Mexican dishes go, but definitely not lacking in flavor! We had the mango and guava margaritas. The mango one had chili flavored salt on the rim, and mixed in. Delicious! They’ve only been open a month but we’ll be back. Worth a visit!

The service, food, and atmosphere are great! I usually call before I go on a Sunday evening, as the hours listed on Google are not always correct.
