    Shrimp fajita plate

    This is one of my 'go to' restaurants for Mexican food. The salsa had deeper flavors which I love, and the heated chips were a nice touch. I had a shrimp fajita plate, which was lovely. I'm not a soda drinker anymore, but couldn't resist an original coke from Mexico, which was nostalgic. There's plenty of seating and parking. The interior has zero ambiance, but it's tidy and clean - and the people are kind. The service is average and the food is always at a consistent quality.

    Everything is homemade, even their amazing salsa! They restaurant tables are covered in beautiful and bright tablecloths which gives the place a cozy feel. Menu items include Elotes (street corn) which tasted delicious! Food is great. My only complaint is they dont carry beans & rice. They only have refried beans. They let me substitute salad for the refried beans.

    We were in town for our girls soccer tournament and needed a good place to eat! We called ahead to let them know it would be around 30-40 people. They shut the place down just for us. It ended up being over 50 people. Nice little place. The food was authentic Mexican! Loved the posole and chilequilles. Fresh made tortillas chips and the homemade salsa was out of this world. A little sweet and salty. All in all we were very happy and the prices were also great!! No alcohol was no problem. We brought our own beer and margaritas. They were super accommodating.

    Tried this rebranded restaurant twice now and can leave a positive review based on my two visits and meals here. Typical strip mall setup with some miscellaneous Mexican decor. Salsa was delicious, slightly sweet, and with creeping heat that produced sweat on my bald head. Nearly unnoticeable but it's there and I really enjoyed that. Today I had the chicken enchiladas with mole sauce and it was superb. Not too much cocoa or overtly sweet. Just right. Chicken was nothing special coated with the sauce and could've used some of its own flavor. Rice and beans delicious. Last week Quesa Birria tacos were really good. The Birria didn't have a remarkable flavor, good and tasty with the cheese, but it didn't stand out. Some notes: Fans on high resulted in cold food towards them end of my meal. It came out hot, so maybe they can turn those down slightly. They brought a bottle of water and charge $1.50 per bottle. I don't mind tap with ice and lemon but I didn't ask if that was an option. Compared to my other Mexican restaurant favorites with 5 stars, this place falls slightly short at 4. Very good and worth a try, and I'll certainly be back to try more dishes.

    The Birria Tacos.

    The customer service and food was amazing ! I personally tried the Birria Tacos and they tasted fantastic I would definitely come here and dine again, the inside is beautifully decorated and i felt welcomed as soon as I stepped in the door. I would 10/10 recommend this restaurant to everyone i know !

    Time for an update and to counter all of the BS negative reviews some folks (probably only one or…read moretwo people using multiple accounts) decided to leave on this fine establishment's page. Anyone who knowingly goes into a smoking bar/restaurant and is bothered or offended by smoke should not have gone inside in the first place...Or immediately left. In my previous review, I took off one star for this, but upon reflection, it's not fair to knock the business simply for what they do, which is cater to a clientele that smokes. I hate cigarette smoke but keep coming back...hmm, wonder why??? It's like taking off a star because a restaurant serves pork (something you might not like, consume, or even want to smell!). WTH? We've been stopping here a lot lately for weekday lunch, especially taco Tuesday. Great deals on really amazing tasting food-the reason I keep coming back!!! Always a drink special and plenty of daily food specials. There was one time our server had a bitch-face and her attitude sucked, but pretty sure she's long-gone. And if ever there was any issue with service or the food, I know for a fact the owner or manager would correct the issue on the spot. So, if there's a problem, give the business a chance to make it right, don't be a d!ck, and your issue will likely go away. Leaving a bad review after the fact does nothing to solve the problem you had, so why bother? Over the years I've grown to love "The Madre" and you will too. If you can handle the the smoke...

    Manager was a bitch. Heather seemed more preoccupied by her friends than welcoming new patrons…read more Better not do anything wrong she might yell at you. I will never ever go back there again such a clicky crowd.

    We stopped by Mid St8 Taco inside the West Shore Farmers Market on the Sunday morning before…read moreChristmas, and wow -- the market was PACKED. Despite the chaos, Mid St8 was cranking out tacos in a really timely and efficient way, which we appreciated right away. We were also super lucky to snag a table nearby, because Mid St8 only has a handful of seats, and they fill up fast. We ordered two breakfast tacos -- egg, potato, and chorizo -- for $11.66, and they were absolutely worth it. First pleasant surprise: real eggs (you can taste the difference). We wouldn't have minded a little more chorizo, but overall the balance still worked. We also loved the double tortilla, and these tacos were STUFFED -- no skimping here. There were lots of onions and lots of lime crema already on the tacos, which we greatly appreciated. The crema was a clutch move and kept the double-tortilla noms from getting too dry. Good call, Mid St8 Taco. Flavor-wise, they really delivered. Super tasty, filling, and exactly what we wanted on a busy, chilly December morning. One of our favorite parts of the experience was the self-service condiment bar. Instead of being put on the spot to choose toppings, you get to customize your tacos with crema, pico de gallo, fire-roasted jalapeños, pickled onions, limes, pickled jalapeños, salsa picosa, and salsa verde. It was great being able to sample a few without committing to a giant scoop of anything we might not love. (Spoiler alert: the lime crema and pickled onions were our winners.) These breakfast tacos really hit the spot, and despite the crowds, the experience was smooth and satisfying. We will happily be back for more.

    We love the Mexican food at El Sol. Their seafood dip is our favorite. We also like the quesadilla…read morechicken nachos, taco and entrees. Their drink menu is also very good. Love the ambience and the servers are always very nice. One of our most favorite Mexican restaurant in town. We had our first date in Harrisburg at El Sol so this will always be special to us.

    My first visit to El Sol lined up with 3rd in the Burg, so I wisely made a reservation for 5:30…read more Turns out we arrived early and were seated immediately (maybe my "I'm starving" comment helped). 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.
