El Sol Restaurant & Catering - Richmond

Best Carnitas in the East Bay! Been coming here for years, and my only regret is that I usually order the same thing!

This catering service provided lunch for our Sutter office holiday party, and it was a wonderful experience. The food was fresh, flavorful, and plentiful, and the staff was friendly, professional, and extremely helpful. They made planning and execution stress-free. We would happily use them again for future office events.

I had my cousin order me 2 chicken enchiladas with rice and beans 2 dinners. I paid $10.19 more than I’m usually charged. Then not thinking anything of it . I see the lady put beans in microwave. 3 minutes later I get my order. I get home and I give 1 of the dinners to my daughter. I begin to eat and the beans are hard not cooked all the way. The chicken enchiladas taste watered down no flavor at all. They microwaved the sourcream and it’s horrible as well.My lips are trembling as if I’m having an allergic reaction to something. The dinner taste sour. I’m just going to toss it out. A waste of money and I’m still hungry.

I just came here again for breakfast around 10 AM and the service was extremely slow and also I was overcharged, I just had a coffee with my heuvos rancheros but when I checked out, they charged me for a Mexican hot chocolate, which is a couple dollars more. Not cool! The lady was super shady while ringing me up too, I should have known, she didn't ask if I wanted a receipt or anything. Luckily, I opted to have the receipt emailed to me and only when I got home and looked at the email, did I realize I had been overcharged. I would hesitate to return here now based on this poor service and the error. I really hate it when people take advantage of me just because I don't speak their language and they think they can get away with it or something.

I brought my husband to lunch and it was ok. The service was good and I love the atmosphere. The menu has various options. The are reasonably priced and quick service.
