   Love the food and service. But sound is so unbearably loud. We had them turn it down, but still impossible to talk, even in dining area. Hopefully they can remedy this situation.

   We came for lunch and we were seated fairly quick. It’s usually a hit or miss at Sol but this time was mediocre. The food was tasty, however I believe they use canola oil (or another unhealthy oil) which is loaded with trans fats. I lost my appetite for 6 hours and my gall bladder feels like it’s on fire. I will say the service was on point. The ambiance here always feels like you’re on vacation in Cabo. The parking attached next door is a huge plus but even better if you have a Tesla.

   We had a very large group with a lot of drink orders and our server did great. The food was excellent, the star of the appetizers was the calamari, which was the body of the calamari instead of the rings or tentacles, so light and delicious, with kind of a coconut flavor. I had 3 of the entree tacos and next time I'll do 2, they were so filling. All the desserts were delicious, but our favorite was a blondie, a perfect end to this meal.

   Pace of the meal could be better timed. Appetizer took way too long to come out, and the entree came out way too fast after the appetizer. Felt rushed to finish the appetizer so that entree wouldn't get cold. Flavors were good though.
