Great for a large group. The restaurant was very accommodating and the staff was excellent! Esquite was delicious. All the cocktails were fantastic. Food was delivered quickly even with a group of 12 of us.

It was our first time here. Our daughter recommended because she came here once before and liked it. Without going into great detail, our food took forever to get. One entree was wrong. The food we got wasn’t hot, the crispy onions on the tacos were stale and it took over 35 minutes to get the correct entree served and it wasn’t worth the wait. The only reason we didn’t give a lower rating is because our server was lovely and she did comp the two appetizers and gave us a $10 gift card to try to make up for the mistakes. We probably will not be using that gift card anytime soon.

SOL Mexican Cocina in Playa Vista is a lively, Baja-inspired Mexican spot with solid tacos, great cocktails, and a fun, upscale-casual vibe. The outdoor patio with fire pits and live music on some nights makes it perfect for groups or date nights. Prices are on the higher side, but most say it’s worth it for the quality and atmosphere. Just know it’s more “Westside trendy” than hole-in-the-wall authentic. Live music is a nice touch.

We came to Sol in Playa Vista for Cinco de Mayo and had an amazing time. Yes, it was busy (as expected), but the energy was great—live music from a one-man band added the perfect vibe to the patio. Huge shoutout to Jose, our server, who didn’t miss a beat. Friendly, fast, and on top of everything. Great food, great drinks, great atmosphere. Already looking forward to our next visit.
