Fantástico lugar. Un ambiente muy acogedor y un trato excelente. Yo probé los chilaquiles y estaban deliciosos.

A wonderful tapas and tequila location, where we met up with friends and enjoyed a variety of drinks and tapas. Thomas was patient with our order, allowing us to catch up, and ensured our drinks and food were ordered promptly so we could enjoy the evening without the kids. It's a great place to relax and enjoy dinner with friends.

Hands down one of the best meals I’ve ever had. Food and service was impeccable - shrimp, beef tenderloin, queso, chorizo, churros, quesadillas, they were all incredible. The item prices on the bill were different (higher) than the prices on the menu, I didn’t understand that. The 18% Mountain Brook liquor tax also kills ya, but this place still deserves 5 stars all day long. I can’t wait to go back.

It is always interesting to visit different parts of the country. The food and service were fantastic! Atmosphere? We sat at the bar and Hailey was engaging and had great recommendations. The atmosphere/clientele was interesting. I would not let the lack of social etiquette dissuade you from visiting this establishment. They had a wide varieties of tequila and tapas. Everything was delicious!

If you have not been to Sol y Luna - do yourself a favor and go NOW. The food and drinks are absolutely delicious. I have never had a meal here that I did not like. And the service is always thorough and friendly.

My husband and I hosted our rehearsal dinner here. We had 70 people there for dinner, and then hosted a welcome cocktail party afterwards. We could not have imagined a better venue for us to host this.

Jorge and Aimee (owners) are wonderful and so patient. Leading up to the event, I emailed Jorge many times - he never got annoyed with me and was always willing to answer questions/concerns I had. He is extremely genuine and personable.

Our guests are still raving about the food, the margaritas, and the atmosphere. It was all absolutely perfect!! I cannot recommend Soly y Luna enough.

My husband and I have dined here many times and love the place, so we decided to invite my brother and sister-in-law to celebrate her birthday. It was just excellent!!

First, the restaurant is beyond beautiful with the murals, decor, tiny ceiling lights, etc. We started with cocktails - Paloma (I always order this and it's the best in town), Ranch Water and a tequila neat. We shared the Sol y Luna Sampler, which is guacamole & pico de gallo w/ interesting assortment of chips - so fresh and delicious!

For dinner, I ordered the grilled salmon w/ garlic mashed potatoes while my brother got the cantina house salad topped w/ grilled salmon. Both were excellent. The salmon was cooked perfectly with a wonderful sear on the outside and so moist inside. My husband and SIL shared the Gambas al Ajillo (the cooked garlic in olive oil w/ red pepper is outstanding!), Shrimp Diabla on a bed of mashed sweet potatoes w/ crispy potatoes, and Red Snapper al Mojo de Ajo w/ shrimp and an amazing tomato & onion sauce and all this came with baskets of bread to soak up all those flavors. As you can see from the pictures, each dish was just beautiful. And, each of them tasted amazing (I was lucky enough to get to sample their dishes). The seafood was not overcooked and each tapa was so unique and flavorful. In addition to the delicious drinks and food, the service was excellent. The hostess made her rounds throughout the night to check on customers and our server took great care of us. The owner, Jorge, was also very attentive, periodically checking on us and helping to make my SIL's birthday very special.

So, based on this as well as our previous visits, I highly recommend this place. You won't be disappointed. We will be returning soon!!

This is THE place for tapas in Birmingham. There is nothing like their duck empanadas. Melt in your mouth with the perfect amount of cheese and pickled vegetables to break up the richness. The staff from the hostess to the back waiter, everyone, were so kind and attentive.
Lastly, the atmosphere here is perfect for an intimate date night.

Amazing place! The food was very flavorful and satisfying and just the right amount. There is a nice variety to choose from and the tapas style is great for sharing and allows you to try a variety of dishes. The prickly pear margaritas were excellent as well.
