Amazing. Great service, great atmosphere, reasonable prices, and Delicious food. Went for lunch with friends and between everything each of us ordered it was incredible- nothing bad to say. Amongst us we had the steak tacos, green chile enchiladas, tuna burger, chicken sandwich, mushroom Quesadillas, fries, side of gouda grits, as well as the wine, sangria, blackberry margarita and salted caramel cheesecake, NOTHING listed that I wouldn't order again. Def a New Favorite in Mt.P. read more

Tried this Resturant shortly after they opened, it was "Extremely" noisy inside, ordered chips and salsa, the chips were not great, and they gave us a small bowl of salsa, then charged us for more salsa! Really?!! Food had really no flavor ( I am used to real Mexican food, from Mexico), and it took for ever for us to get our check, then the server brings us the wrong check!! Had to wait another 10 mins for the correct check, have never been back, and don't plan on going back! read more

Casual Mexican with a great atmosphere. Such a delightful break from your typical Mexican restaurant. The Healer drink turned out to be the best Painkiller I've ever had with toasted coconut on the rim sprinkled with nutmeg. We had chips with a pineapple salsa that was delicious and the tuna tacos were excellent. This is now our go to Mexican restaurant. read more

First of all - I need to say that SOL is our favorite restaurant in Mt Pleasant but we're loosing patience. In the past - we could count on seeing the owners in the house and now it seems like the operation is missing some managerial oversight. The waitresses disappear when the place is empty and I've had to search them out to get plates or a refill. The food quality is still good, but not exceptional. On one recent visit, the beer on tap wasn't working and we've started to notice that the lunch crowd is a little lighter now. I certainly hope that ownership redirects their attention to the flagship location while they're perhaps focused on expansion. read more

Went here recently for lunch with a co-worker. I chose the carnitas Napoleon and frankly, could have licked the plate! The pork was some of the best I have ever eaten. It was beautifully served and delicious. I will definitely go back again to try some cocktails and apps. I do agree with another reviewer who felt the shorts on the female servers was a distraction. In this day and age, it is unnecessary. read more

We went during restaurant week. We had tried a few times before but there was no parking so we always left. We were seated at the bar as the restaurant was full. We sat for 15 minutes while several people behind the bar, completely ignored us, making no eye contact. Food was tasty but took a long time to get anyone to take our order. Maybe bar tenders aren't trained to take orders? There was an employee (female) hanging all over a male behind the bar which was kind of uncomfortable. At one point that same female was chatting with us and used the "F" word in her conversation. I couldn't believe that!!!! I would never allow that behavior from any employee of mine. Not sure we will go back simply due to that. There are too many other places in the area that offer fabulous service. read more

Good mexican, nice decor, good service...it's a yes for me. I had shrimp and grits at a Mexican place and have to say it was &#%$ good. They formed the grits into patties and deep fried them putting just a bit of a crispy shell on them, unique and tasty. The shrimp were big and fresh, no let down there either. Lastly it was covered in a spicy cream sauce that I could have dipped the napkin in and ate that too...the rest of the family all liked the dinners as well. My only issue was paying $13 for chips and salsa, cheese, and guacamole. I would recommend anything from the SOL menu area as it was all unique and sounded really good, I can attest to the shrimp and grits and will definitely be back to try the rest of the food in that section of the menu. Oh ya, cool patio with music to boot. This is an above average Mexican place with some unique things, it may be a little more commercialized but it still is good and worth a trip! read more

SOL Mt. Pleasant - Outside patio - Bars Near Me - Mt Pleasant, South Carolina

See all

Lame...I tried to make a reservation for 6 people two days out and was told that they only reserve for parties of 8 or more. I was able to find another couple to join us and then called 30 minutes later to make a reservation for 8 people, thinking, of course, that that would be no problem. Same person answered the call and told me this time that they don't take reservations....instead its just a walk in scenario. When I told her that was strange because I had just spoken to her and she told me 8 or more, she gave me an "oh really??" and put me on hold for a while. Another person picked up the hold and asked if he could help me. I told him I wanted to make a reservation for 8P, and he told me that they only take them for 10 or more. Ridiculous. So...I made a reservation at their direct competitor and will be sure to share my story with the table. read more

We've been a few times. Generally good service. Food is good but could be better for the price. They struggle to get the steaks cooked at the right temp. read more

Came to SOL this weekend to visit a friend, this was my first time visiting this restaurant. I have to say it was a great experience, the service was outstanding and the food was absolutely delicious. I would defiantly return next time I'm in town. read more

Best margaritas in Mount Pleasant, hands down. Happy hour is a really awesome time as well, a lot of locals from all ages, and the tuna lollipops are amaze-balls!! Fish tacos are really good too! Awesome spot!! Just wish they'd stay open later on busy nights and weekends since they're a main spot that side of town, but still a great place! read more

So happy we stopped in and tried this place. Highly recommend the carnitas tacos. Delicious, great flavors. Blueberry margarita was a plus.

Great food and even better friendly service! Would go back if ever back in SC from Colorado!!!

Sols tequila selection is mind blowing! Their margaritas are pretty good. They have a great burger and their tacos are good too! Can't go wrong ordering those! Their chips and salsa/guacamole are pretty good but their Nachos are so so. The atmosphere is nice, and it is a great place for Sunday brunch. They have a different menu and all the food was pretty good! The drinks were a different story. Do not try the green Bloody Mary. It is not good! Go with the mimosas or regular Bloody Mary. I took one sip and could not take another. I was with 12 people and everyone tried it and felt the same way! read more

Have eaten at Sol numerous times now and have been generally happy with the food. We love the firecracker app... It's so tasty with just a little kick of the jalapeño coming through with the bacon and cream cheese. Yum! On a couple of occasions now I have had to send my steak back to be cooked up a level more. I usually order medium but it came out more medium rare. I suppose it's better on the undercooked side rather than overlooked but it should be perfect! The desert choice is not extensive but what they have is good. The banana cream pie is pretty special. As the place is a tequila bar one has to try... Even the house margarita is very good. Finally just a comment about the parking... It can be very busy at times but they have a free valet so if you visit at the height of dinner time then I would just head straight for that. The prices are very reasonable. (10 oz sirloin $16 or a 7 oz filet $19) and this includes a side. I can recommend the creamed corn and the roast veg. read more

Overall: overpriced and poor service. $70 for 3 beers, enchilada meal and a burger. The food was good, that is the only positive thing I can say. While we were one of three patrons at the bar we got little to no attention because the bartender spent most of her time talking to her boyfriend (one of the other three patrons). read more

Awesome restaurant. Great ambiance. Fun and friendly. Family and child friendly. Very clean. Great staff. Amazing choices and variety of food. read more

Though reviews about this place haven't been impressive, I was excited to give SOL a try last week, when a group of friends planned a birthday party / girls night. There were 22 of us and having served for 7 years, I know how it is to handle big parties, so I thought everyone did a great job! I mean, yes, margaritas were slow-going or forgotten at times but....there was a lot going on. I think the most important thing for everyone to know about this place is that the citrus margarita is AH-MAZING! A lot of friends really liked the house margarita too, but not the blackberry one (said it was good at first but then just tasted like juice rather than a margarita). We had a few chips & dip trios for the table because though a reservation for the patio was made a month in advance and verified 2-3 days prior, when we got there "the manager hadn't written down that it was for the patio". Anyways, I didn't care for the salsa, but they have really good / fresh guacamole! And who doesn't love queso?! Most everyone loved their meals, aside from a wedge salad that was left uneaten because of overly spicy dressing, but my stacked vegetable enchilada was really good! The chili sauce on it had some heat but was easily scraped off or toned down from the sour cream. The rice and beans were bland and needed salt, but for the most part, I liked this place. It won't be a regular spot, but I'd definitely come back for apps and margaritas. :) read more

SOL was a nice place for a quick bite to eat. I came here with my wife and suggest coming with a group of people to enjoy everything SOL has to offer. The happy hour margaritas were very small but well mixed. The fish tacos were very well cooked but kind of small. Staff was super friendly! We will be back! read more

Very promising first business. Great looking, open space, nice servers, good food (Salmon BLT and polento grits were great)...Nice to have a solid non chain restaurant down the street in MTP. Will definitely be back. read more

The interior was really cool, but I thought the food was pretty bland and I felt sick afterward (not sure if SOL was the culprit or not). And, while our server was nice, she was not attentive. She even sat down at an adjacent diner's table and talked with him for a good 10 minutes, none of it concerning food or the restaurant. I will say, I went shortly after they opened, so perhaps the food/service has since improved? read more

Tacos are a bit stingy (in size and filling) but enjoyable. They won't knock your socks off with flavor but will satisfy. Staff is friendly, ambiance is very nice! Overall, an average not so authentic Mexican Restaurant (if food is the priority). You won't be disappointed but you won't race to come back. read more

Amazing food, Great Atmosphere, Fantastic Servers...What else could you ask for? Oh well fine if you are being that picky then how about a well stocked tequila bar that makes amazing drinks and has a plethora (yes a plethora) of local beers on draft (and bottles if you don't like freshly tapped beer and if you do prefer the bottles should you be trusted?) to choose from. read more

Energetic vibe, delicious apps, and the selection of tequila is unbelievable. Our server made amazing suggestions to suit our tastes. Relaxed and fun place!! read more

Southwestern feel inside and nice patio seating outside. Fun atmosphere. Great customer service.. We had to have a table to watch college football! Started with fresh salsa and guacamole very good. Filet and sweet potato wedges awesome cooked to perfection. They use southwest seasoning. The flank stark tacos with beans and rice very good! Magi was delicious too! Everything very fresh! read more

SOL looks like a great place for a happy hour with friends and I would recommend sitting on the patio where there seems to be more ambiance. My husband and I got great service, but the drinks were just okay -- blackberry marg and regular marg were nothing extraordinary. We shared the firecracker appetizer (way to go!), hubs had the bison enchiladas and loved them, and I had pork tacos with grilled yams. Seriously, I could have just had the yams and been thoroughly happy. I like SOL, but the interior feels like it needs an up date and the food is at least solid. read more

We checked this place out during restaurant week and it was pretty good. They are an upscale Mexican restaurant with a really cool vibe. They offer indoor/outdoor seating a a really extensive drink menu. It was a little on the pricey side but the quality was there and service was awesome. If I go back I'll definitely sit outside and have some drinks again. Give the romaine salad a try. read more

Very strange place. First impression was that the room was far too big for the number of tables/ booths. Not cavernous but off -putting. Main course followed starters much too quickly and the food was only okay. Don't expect much above a Tex Mex chain and you won't be disappointed. read more

All staff should be socializing the same message to customers. Do not tell folks you are doing take out, and then change it once I show up. GM and owner not even on same page - owner is one rude guy! Ill never ever eat at this place again nor recommend to any of my clients or anyone else! Id suggest Mr Owner you work on your skills. Yes you are busy but you were not even effin considerate I had drove all the way there to hear "we are not doing take out" we are doing the best we can. WTF?!? read more

Visiting Charleston and I couldn't have been happier with our decision to stop here for lunch. Great atmosphere, staff and food...plus wonderful margaritas with freshly squeezed juices read more

It's good..... been here a few times and it's been consistent. Server was friendly, food came out quick and hot. Pretty big bar scene around 8pm read more

We love it! John was a great bartender and the margarita, enchiladas were great. Not overly sauced & fresh tasting. My husband loved the chicken sandwich. Food can be quite decadent, but the menu has yummy salads & simple grilled entrees too. Lively, and a great outdoor area! SOL also is a terrific supporter of local charities. So close to the islands...May be our new hang-out:) read more

We stood at the front door waiting to at least be greeted. After standing there, we decided to walk towards the back to sit down. We had to ASK a random employee if we just find somewhere to sit or if we are supposed to wait to be seated. The chicken sandwich was okay. The slaw on the sandwich had a weird citrus flavor and the chicken didn't taste like it was seasoned at all. Bland! The Carnitas Napoleon was delicious though. read more

Always great time and good food at SOL

The staff here is great. But the biggest thing hurting the staffs bottom line is the quality of the food. If I'm paying high dollar for jalapeño poppers they better be organic with rare ass cheese, a chef is needed hear and the idea that a kitchen manager with work will only kill them soon. Their bar business keeps them alive. read more

Locals told us about this place. In a new "Stockdale" shopping center just off Kings Hwy. The atmosphere is loud and family focused. The outfits the ladies wore were a bit strange (white dresses for the hostess and tablets and short shorts on the waitresses; both in cowboy boots) and exploitive. But the food is good and the service friendly and fast. read more

This was out first time here. I've eaten at a wide variety of restaurants and I know good food when I taste it. We had the chipotle chicken quesadilla, BBQ bacon cheeseburger, and upon recommendation...the caramel salted cheese cake. I'm not a big fan of any kind of cheese cake but this was the best I've ever had! Full of flavor and exciting taste. The burger and quesadilla were also Some of the best food to cross our palate! Great visit. read more

Service was very good and food was adequate but the margaritas - total ripoff. If I'm paying $9 for a margarita I don't want a tiny drink that doesn't even have a shot of tequila in it. Noise level extremely high. read more

Good food and drinks. Abysmal service. We went there for late afternoon apps and drinks and our waitress was one of the most unfriendly servers I've ever seen (first name starts with an M). Despite our best attempts to get on M's good side, she was just so dour to us and the rest of her tables. Will not go back. read more

Great margaritas. Love that they have a habanero AND a jalapeno margarita for two levels of spiciness. The staff are super friendly and accommodating. My friend and I ordered the nachos and asked if they could substitute ahi tuna on top in place of the chicken. The manager came and asked us exactly how we'd like it and was so nice about the substitution. The nachos themselves were awesome, however I would have liked them spicier (but I love super spicy foods). Overall I'll definitely be coming back and telling my friends about it. Can't wait to try more of the menu! read more
