7 September 2025I find the food as authentic as you can get in Modesto. The Pollo or Camarones en Crema con Rajas is to die for, and their mole is not too bad either. Deciding what to order is a challenge as it is all so good.

2 September 2025El Sol has been my favorite Mexican restaurant in Modesto for more than a decade. The food is authentic, tasty and fresh. Plus the service is personal, usually the owner is the one waiting on us. Try #14!
