So love this place

Got a fajita burrito kind cold peppers were undercooked. Usually great food but Disappointed this time round!

Music was loud.. had to speak up alot to talk to my parents.. food came out fast.. too fast.. and it showed. I can pre make food at home if I want to be lazy.

Friendly staff. Good food. The interior of the restaurant the first place is beautiful. Lots of Art. You could not believe that it's the old Dollar Store!!!

Yum!!!! Favorite place to go!! Always so good and awesome service!!

Tbh. It was just the 1 of several places in town that I chose. No problems here, food was good. As expected.

always a great experience! authentic cuisine and many delicious options to please every palate! friendly servers and quick service!

THE BEST MEXICAN FOOD IN TOWN!! (Despite Tacos Amigos). If you are thinking about going to Don Sol, come here instead. The food is extremely delicious, you get good portions, and the price is affordable.

Really good place, staffis nice and flavor is really good.

Always fabulous staff and super great food!

My favorite place to eat. Great food....great service.

This restaurant is a family favorite. Great food. They have my favorite guacamole. The waiters and waitresses are super friendly. Everyone always asks if you're happy when they pass by your table. One of the best places to eat in Mattoon.

The absolute best Mexican restraunt in town! Every single time I go the food is delicious and the portions are heaping! I always take home leftovers. The staff are extremely friendly. The restaurant is clean and cozy. I have never one time eaten here and been disappointed!

It was awesome as usual!!! One of our favorite spots!!! Sat outside and it was nice!!! Great food!! I can live off the cheese dip and salsa!! Oh and the guacamole is fire too!!!

Been here a couple times, have had both ends of the spectrum from a flavor perspective, but more positive than negative. I'll update as time goes on, because I will be back.

This place is awesome!! Cant ask for better. We will be back!!

Had the burrito amigos. Absolutely delicious!

Great atmosphere good food decent prices

The workers are very friendly and they have a variety of entrees along with that, their food is great. I have never had any problems with this place. I would highly recommend this establishment to everyone!!!

Stopped for dinner, they are very attentive. Service was quick and spot on. If your looking for a quick bite and fast turnaround, this is your spot. We were in & out in 40 min. Our dinners were delicious, hot and appealing. Will return.

Best Mexican food in town, hands down!

Excellent food! Sometimes slow and poor service.

Excellent food and service

4 of the 5 times I ordered take out from this restaurant they either got my order completely wrong, left something out, like queso, twice now.... And every time it's a different price. We eat the same time there, they repeat it back on the phone correctly.... Yet its only been right one time. We only get two meals and queso. I'm not sure why the miscommunication.

The food was excellent and very friendly employees.

Always fast, friendly service every time we go. Food is always good.

Great good and the employees are always very nice

Great food. Great service.
