"Taqueria Del Sol is a restaurant inside of a rainbow. The kaleidoscope of colors, from the bright orange walls to the murals inlaid in every table to the different streamers and garlands strewn across the ceiling, make you feel like celebrating something, even if it’s just getting a simple plate of tacos for dinner. This family-run Tex-Mex and Mexican restaurant in the Greater East End has been a community pillar for over three decades. Grab breakfast tacos for less than $2 in the morning, conchas from the panaderia, or share some carne asada at night with the family. You can also rent the banquet hall for a queso-fueled party." - gianni greene, chelsea thomas
