I had not been to Sol y Luna before and a friend wanted to treat me to dinner. We went Thursday night, July 14th.
We at Body By Starz company staff love love Sol y Luna! we go at least three times a month, they have the best Molcajetes; delicious juicy Beef Steak and tender Chicken strips, Shrimp with all the extras, nopalitos, onions, chiles melted blocks of cheese... Yummm. I cant say enough of Sol y Luna restaurant its the best in the San Fernando Valley for authentic Mexican food.
Usually have good food but last time disappointed. Got the cheese enchilada and beef taco combo. The enchilada was really tasteless with hardly any cheese or sauce, plus temperature wise bordering on cold. The beef taco had hardly any meat in it, but tasted fine. The chips and the salsa was the best part of the meal. It take quite a bit of time to get our meal, about 20 minutes and the food came out cold as mentioned above. Maybe an off day?. Probably be back...
This place is one of the best homely, slightly Americanized Mexican cuisine in the San Fernando Valley. Surprisingly, this place completely outshines its sister restaurants. Food is always served fresh and drinks somewhat flow from the bar. A very good time with friends and/or romantic enough for a date night. Recommend the Molcajete. It is by far the best thing on the menu. But the menu has other people pleasers also. Their grilled chicken is always juicy and never served dry. They do not take reservations, but accepts phone calls to put your name down. Which is recommended due to there always being a line to dine in. Service isn't the greatest. Could be due to covid staffing issues. I like the upbeat atmosphere of this place but sometimes, it can be a bit much. Not a fan of yelling across the table to keep the conversation going. If you're on a romantic date, I recommend sitting on the same side. Regardless, I'm a repeat customer.
Best Mexican Food and Margaritas in the Valley!
Amazing food. Family tradition to go here. My grandfather would take me once a week then I began going with my significant other. It is the place where I fell in love. It is romantic at night especially with the beautiful lights and murals inside. I moved 5 months ago and still crave their food. The rice has so much flavour and isn't dry. Every food on the menu has been made with love and care.
Steak plate.Let me be very clear for my rating. I am Hispanic. Beans and rice is in my DNA. When I ordered my plate it came with what I can only describe as bean crepe. As I was getting ready to enjoy the cheesy beans on my plate I stick my fork in the beans and scratched my plate so hard ? it was hilarious. I was laughing so hard in disbelief that this was served to me as rice and beans. Man I felt robbed. The asada steak was cooked as I asked but it was just not what I expected for my first visit. My dates plate had significantly greater amount and she was generous enough to give me a spoon full which amounted to more beans than I had in total. I am still laughing because it was unbelievable. When we ordered the guacamole ( specialty here ) they also robbed us from the Cilantro because they didn't have any at the time. It was just not a good first experience. It WAS CLEAN. I'll say that much.
Food was AMAZING. Long wait but it was worth it. Shared with my wife. Molcajpte for 2 was the plate. Will come back.
Awesome person to in the place is the bartender Cisco
