sr. sol 1

sr sol is amazing. i'm not sure what "lemon" is talking about, sr sol is by far the best mexicanrestauranti've ever been to and definitely the best in athens (i've lived here all my life, so yes i know what i'm talking about). food is always delicious and served quickly and is very authentic. staff are always friendly and polite and i have never had a disappointing experience at either of their locations. sr sol far surpasses la parilla and taqueria del sol in food quality. also their margaritas are incredible! love sr sol

wish there was one in every city!. i came here based on the reviews, and was not disappointed!! the food was fantastic. yes, it is next to a gas station, but to get tasty mexican food like that, i don't care what it's next to. i had three different kinds of tacos, and all were delicious. the rice and beans were good too! i only wish thisrestaurantwas closer to my house so i'd never have to cook again. try sr. sol- you'll love it!

do not ever order delivery from this restaurant. they are the rudest people i have ever dealt with. our food was cold, they overcharged us for food that was not in the bag, and didn’t even try to apologize for the inconvenience. the sr. sol on broad is the best, but this one on talahassee rd is by far the worstrestaurantin business. i will never be ordering again from there nor eating there and i suggest you do the same unless you want to be treated worse than the dirt on their shoes.

okay so this is the highest reviewedrestaurantin athens on zomato therefore the fiance and i had to try it. first off, it's in the same building as a gas station, not exactly fine dining but we were okay with that. the complimentary chips and salsa were very tasty and they even give you two other sauces to try for no extra charge. we tried the enchiladas, burritos, and nachos. all tasted very good but honestly i have had way better at mexican restaurants in my hometown (pensacola,fl). in our opinion this place is way overrated on zomato. nevertheless, it gets a 4.0 because it is good food at a cheap price.

great. this place is like magic. like the kind of magic you wish you could have as a kid. now you can have it. while i have not been to every mexican joint in town, this is my favorite that i have visited. their salsa is pretty awesome, and their mango daquiri is awesome. nom. what i really appreciate about this place is that it has a variety of choices that your typical mexicanrestaurantavoids--such as tongue and tripe. the food and service is always prompt, so it's always a great choice for when you are in a hurry.

good stuff!. tallassee road location is our favorite mexicanrestaurantin athens. pleasant and attentive staff and ownership. personal favorite is the steak sandwich (torta), but you can't go wrong with anything on the menu.

great service. amazing food. best mexicanrestaurantin athens.

good, but not up to the hype. sr. sol is ranked the #1 mexicanrestaurantin athens, and while it was good, i'm puzzled as to why it is the best.

last night my girlfriend stopped by to see what all the fuss was about, and i left a little disappointed. don't get me wrong - the food was very good. eating at a legitimate place like sr. sol makes you truly question why you ever go to taco bell.

oh, you can get a stale taco with shredded iceburg at taco bell for $2?
i got a real carne asada steak taco at sr. sol for $2 as well.

as far as prices goes. sr. sol wasn't terrible.
the cheese dip was a tad expensive - $5 - and it was by no means better than anything you'd get at willies or moe's.

all in all, the food is good. but it isn't the best. it doesn't merit #1.

the queso was good, but it's better at willies on alps.
the tacos were good, but they're better at cali and titos.
the gordita was good, but they're better at the j&j's flea market. (no joke - if you ever go to j&j's, they have a little mexican food stand. buy a gordita. be sure to grab a napkin for your drool.)

summary - good place. not worth the #1 in athens.
