Taqueria El Sol

Very good Mexican food just outside of Union square. There are some fancier places for Mexican in the area but avoid those tourist traps. This is the real deal. The burritos are packed and delicious dry or wet. The tacos hit every time. The soup is just like how grandma made it. The salsa’s are fresh and chips crunchy. I just wish they’d bring back the beef tongue in tomato sauce. Dos burritos up 🌯🌯

I went there to get a veggie breakfast burrito and the food was really good. The portion size was large and was reasonably priced. The place usually fills up fast during lunch and dinner time. However, It wasn't crowded at 930am in the morning right around the time when they started serving breakfast.

Great value, flavorful food. I had a regular quesadilla. I couldn't choose between the chicken and pork, so I asked to have half chicken and half pork. Both meats were tender. I also had guacamole and the mild salsa. The quesadilla was made with a 12" tortilla and rolled up, more like a giant burrito than a quesadilla. It was cut into two halves and was more food than I could eat in one sitting. I had a cup of agua de sandia, which was like watermelon juice. I also ordered chips and salsa and dined-in because there was seating. However, there wasn't a restroom. My meal cost less than $20 in total and I had a large amount of food. If you're looking to have a filling meal without paying that much, this is the place for you.
