We were passing through on our road trip home and did our trusty "Yelping" and found this little gem. Few things to note: 1: if you stop here on Sunday you better get here before noon. We thankfully got in around 11:45 and by noon the place was PACKED. People had to leave it was so full of local church folk. 2: the timing of food here is a-typical but also fantastic. As in- your food comes out fresh!! But that also means other members of your party may have to wait 5-10 min before theirs is up. Just enjoy the company and your piping hot food. I prefer that over it being left in a warmer for God knows how long. 3: in terms of overall atmosphere- the service is so nice. Don't come here looking for a Michelin Star experience- but if you're looking for a welcoming environment, delicious hot food, and a salsa bar with a variety of options- this is your place. Just repeat after me: "arrive before noon on Sunday. Arrive before noon on Sunday." Cheers! read more

Definitely my go to Mexican Restaurant! Such great food, service and friendly people. Just wished that they'd add a little Mexican music in the background. Nothing loud, just loud enough to slightly hear it. See y'all soon! read more

My bestie and I meet once a month for lunch since we have about four hours between us. I found this spot about two years ago. It's our favorite spot to meet thus far. The food is plenty and delicious. The service has always been great. And they are always updating (reinvesting) in the dining area to make it even more authentic. The location is perfect us. I would recommend for those who like to fond those gems on their adventures. Enjoy! read more

Chile rellenos we're some of the best I have ever had ! Salsa bar a huge plus although Broken chips from bottom of batch not so much a hit and server was definitely inexperienced but there were other co workers who at least were observant so don't let this review steer you from taking this place in ... Full bar and the food is spot on from this retired Food and beverage manager of 30 plus years in the hospitality biz! Will return next trip to this area and would definitely be a regular if I lived here ! read more

Taqueria El Sol - Street Tacos - Tacos Near Me - Metter, Georgia

Good Mexican food. Service is awesome and waitresses are very polite. Good place to eat.

As the locals say "everything is better in Metter" and Taqueria El Sol is no exception. Best street tacos I've ever had and I've had my share. The barbacoa was off the charts amazing, the peaxado was solid; and the carnitas was top notch. They have horchata- my favorite drink in the world and they give it you in a 32 oz huge mug filled with ice. Who could ask for more. Also: they have a fresh salsa bar in the back with a dozen home made salsas- absolutely epicurean! Will definitely be coming back, love this place. If you're ever coming to and from Savannah on I-16 take a detour and have some of the best Mexican food outside of Mexico. read more

Great food! Would recommend! We will be back, I'll drive from statesboro gladly to eat here again!

This is a great restaurant. I was truly amazed to find a really excellent Mexican restaurant in Georgia. Who would have thought? If you like Mexican food, this is the place to go. The service was good and friendly. The Ambiance was nice and pleasant. The food however was GREAT. I highly recommend this place if you are ever in the area. I feel fortunate to have happened onto it. read more

Good new spot for Metter with great food and good prices. Some dishes are pretty authentic but then they still have some Tex mex classics to make everyone happy. I tore down their street food menu and ordered half of it the first round. All was good especially the Gordita. Tamales weren't my favorite though. Some of the Tex max classics that our group got were also really good and portions were humongous. Definitely a good spot to fill up and take some home. They also have a large salsa bar with tons of authentic favorites and even some fresh peppers and radishes. Not sure if Metter needed a New Mexican restaurant but not complaining yet read more

If you want authentic true Mexican street tacos, this is your place. If you are driving, just make the extra mile into downtown from. I-16. Totally worth it and the salsa bar is amazing! The menu is more authentic and not your typical Americanized style of Mexican food. Definitely a gem if your a local foodie! Quality is great. Portions are perfect. Fresh taste. Restaurant is very clean. Staff was super friendly. Margaritas aren't watered down either! Definitely keep this one on the map! read more

Visited twice, and had awful experiences with the waitresses. Very racist and not friendly in terms of service. They also served one of the dishes on a broken plate, replaced after complaints. The food was good but will Never visit again! read more

The best Mexican food!! They recently catered our wedding and did an outstanding job. Amazing service and you will not be disappointed!!

What a great little place to eat downtown! I am glad we drove into town, from the Interstate for lunch. The servers are friendly and fast. When they say the salsa on the right side is hot you better believe them! The chips were hot and fresh. I had the Picaditas, with the sliced steak, and I liked it. He had the steak burrito and it was huge! I highly recommend driving into town for Taquera El Sol. The food is good, fast, and priced right. read more

So good! Greta service. It was a quick lunch. Would definitely stop in again to get the churros I forgot to order!

The drive from Statesboro to Metter was worth it! We were greeted by a friendly staff and an amazing aroma of Mexican fare. Nearly everything on the menu called to us, but I finally decided on the fajitas del sol, and my husband ordered the Texas rice. The restaurant is clean with cute decor, and the salsa bar was great. Our food arrived quickly, and was every bit as amazing as it looked and smelled. Loved the vegetables! We both needed a box for leftovers. I wish it was closer so we could have lunch during the week. read more
