The menu is incredibly extensive and has good choices for anyone that likes Mexican food. The market has a bunch of cool little bits and bobs that I as a totally non-Mexican, very white person don't really understand but still enjoy! It's fun to shop around while you wait for your food or even after eating. Staff has always been very nice and on top of things like refills, getting food out quick, etc. All the little murals and things are very pleasing to look at. Overall, awesome place to eat and get stuff from.

They also brought out chips with salsa and a Mexican ranch dipping sauce, which I really enjoyed. Overall, everything was delicious.

Let me just start off by saying the place itself is beautiful, antiqueish like but also gave me Mexican culture to the max. Which I loved. I visited Mexico before so it definitely was nice to see that. Everyone from the host to our server were so nice and friendly. We loved our server, he kept us laughing and was great with his attentiveness to the table. The menu offers a lot! Lol from traditional plates to vegetarian options. I wanted to try something different so I picked the San Jose burrito. A burrito stuffed with chicken, rice, chorizo, beans and topped with a jalapeño cheese sauce.. it was beyond what I expected. It was so flavorful! Loved every bite lol if you come here, I highly recommend. Hubby got the Tacos Del Mar which came with three tacos. 1- shrimp, 1- fried fish & 1-seared fish. His plate came with rice too. Which I think is great for the price and the portion they give you. We also order table side guacamole because you always need to have some gua when you're at Mexican restaurant right?!?!! Lol. Everything was absolutely delicious. Friendly staff , very nice spot. Go check it out if you haven't.

The quesbirria tacos were my favorite, but all of them were delicious! Also, their guacamole tasted super fresh so I would recommend starting off with chips and guacamole. The restaurant has a fun atmosphere with Mexican theme and fun celebrations if it's somebody's birthday. Our waitress was super sweet. She accidentally put in an order for one taco instead of three but immediately went to fix her mistake. I had the Horchata, which was yummy and all of my friends had house or mango margaritas. They were a good size and they all enjoyed it! If you're craving for Mexican, this is a good place to be. And they have many TVs around if you also want to find a spot to watch the games.

Huge basket of chips and salsa to start off and then my (à la carte) chicken enchilada and lunchtime special Birria burrito were served. The enchilada looked the same as all El Rodeo restaurants, but my attention was to the burrito which looked like it was swimming in water. I was skeptical at first, but after taking a bite, I realize that this was delicious consommé without any grease, so it looked watery. The flavor was rich and delicious along with perfectly seasoned meat. I loved this meal and overall experience. Gonna have to add this back into the lunch rotation...

It also took a long time just to get our queso, and honestly, it wasn't worth the wait. The drinks tasted watered down, which was disappointing. On top of that, our food took forever to come out, and when it finally did, it was just okay like nothing special.

There was also a television in the seating area with Spanish tv shows playing the entire time. The food was good. I understand the small space- I just wasn't thrilled with having my son distracted by the tv during dinner time. We don't do tv during dinner at home and certainly not at a restaurant. It was a losing battle even with the unfamiliar language on the tv. Like I said the food was tasty though, and the staff friendly- I'm just not thrilled on the distracting atmosphere of both tv and grocery store all right by the dinner table.

Inside, the vibe is warm and festive: colorful artwork, low-top tables, a lively bar stocked with tequilas, and gorgeous Moravian star lights glowing overhead. The menu is extensive -- everything from tacos and burritos to rice bowls, full entrées, and massive multi-person feasts served in lava rock molcajetes. Most dishes land around $20, or you can snag tacos individually for $5.50. We started with the Mexican Seafood Dip and wow... game changer. Shrimp, bay scallops, crab, and mushrooms all swimming in a red tomatillo sauce, baked under a gooey blanket of cheese, and served with chips. Unlike so many "seafood" dips that are 90% cheese, El Sol delivers with generous amounts of actual seafood. It was piping hot, hearty, and plentiful -- enough that we happily took leftovers home. For mains, I went with a Birria Taco (plus a trusty Diet Coke). Juicy, cheesy, crispy perfection -- I could've polished off three more but restrained myself. Adventure Buddy chose Camarones A La Diabla -- jumbo Gulf shrimp and mushrooms in a three-chile sauce. Bright red, spicy but not overpowering, and loaded with shrimp that were actually jumbo. He was a happy camper. Our total came to $62 with tip, which felt fair for the quality and portions. Service was attentive and friendly, and the noise level low enough for both conversation and even a quick phone call. Parking is the usual downtown Harrisburg scene -- no on-site lot, but free street parking after 5 and garages nearby make it easy enough. Bottom line: great food, colorful atmosphere, and a menu that's begging us to come back. Next time, I'm eyeing one of those lava rock molcajetes.

I ordered 5 tacos: 1 birria, because I'd never tried their version before and wanted to be safe; the other 4 were 2 carnitas and 2 asada. I also ordered a plate of rice and refried beans. The rice isn't your traditional yellow Mexican-style rice; at least, I've never had it like this ever before, and I eat lots of Mexican food. It had corn and pigeon peas in it but was still very delicious. The carnitas and steak tacos weren't my favorite--not bad at all, just not my favorite--but the birria was top-tier A1. Honestly, overall, every single thing was good and worth it. 25 bucks got me 5 tacos stuffed to the brim, a very generous serving of rice and refried beans, with a soda. And the service was great!
