" I came here on a busy Saturday night and had a fantastic time! The restaurant was packed, which speaks to its popularity. I tried the molcajete and was amazed by how flavorful it was. The only complaint I have is the wait for food was longer than I expected, but the staff were attentive and regularly checked in with us. I'd definitely return for the food and atmosphere! " (*Curated Review*)

" El Girasol is a staple for me and my friends. The moment you walk in, you are greeted by the vibrant colors of traditional Mexican decor and the sounds of live music. I typically order the carne asada tacos, which have never disappointed. The portions are generous, and the prices are affordable. Service can be spotty at times, but the ambiance more than makes up for it. Highly recommend if you're looking for a lively night out! " (*Curated Review*)

" El Girasol has potential but needs to work on food consistency. I had great tacos the first time, then a completely bland version on my next visit. Service is hit or miss, but the lively music keeps things lively. I’d give them another chance but can’t fully endorse yet. " (*Curated Review*)

" I absolutely love the vibes at El Girasol! It's a vibrant place to dine and enjoy time with friends. The ceviche was fresh and tangy, but my nachos didn’t have much flavor. Service was okay but could've been faster, especially since the place was packed. I'd return for the ambiance and drinks. " (*Curated Review*)

" First time here, and I enjoyed the atmosphere! The live music was incredible, and the drinks were nicely priced. However, the food I ordered was bland and didn't stand out. The service staff was friendly but a bit slow. I wouldn't rule out returning just for the vibes. " (*Curated Review*)

" El Girasol Sports Bar is a gem! I went there with friends for drinks, and we ended up ordering food too. The micheladas were scrumptious! I really loved their ceviche as well; it's authentic and flavorful. The staff treated us like family, and we felt very welcomed. The mix of live music and friendly faces made it a splendid vibe for our outing. I can't wait to come back for more nights like this! " (*Curated Review*)

" El Girasol is my go-to spot for a fun night out! The ambiance is always buzzing with energy. The food is consistently good, and I particularly love their shrimp tacos - a safe bet every time! Drinks are well priced during happy hour, but the wait for food can be a bit long at peak times. If you're in the area and looking for a lively meal, check this place out! " (*Curated Review*)
