    It's hard to find a good happy hour with lots of options and good prices! The chips with salsa and black bean dip were a great way to start. The shrimp taquitos were cheesy and saucy with mashed avocado to dip! The firecracker quesadilla was huge! Cheesy, lots of chicken, pico, and sauce. The fish tacos were delicious, and so was the lunch torta. Everything was eaten and nothing left behind. My only (kind of) complaint is that everything had a similar style. All the dishes seemed to have in common pico, hot sauce, cheese, shredded lettuce. It's not a huge deal, but I do wish they were a little more customized than generalized with the same ingredients over and over again. However, Sol is one of the only Mexican restaurants with a big inexpensive menu, good quality food, and service.

    Updating the review because certain foods are way better than others, and Gerardo who works behind the bar is super sweet and welcoming. I really like the shrimp cucarachas. They have them on happy hour and they are super flavorful and fun to eat. They are shell on so be aware if that's not something you're into, but I personally enjoy the flavor and don't mind the work/mess. The grilled sweet corn is also a go-to for me now. So yeah, good value and flavor for certain things, but not all.
