Sol de Mexico sits on Cicero Avenue in Belmont Cragin, cooking Mexican dishes to order from fresh ingredients as an homage to the country's culinary traditions rather than a shortcut version of it.
Regulars single out the moles and chiles en nogadas, along with tamale de elote, filet mignon served with a spiced salsa, and tortillas made by hand and brought to the table. The restaurant also hosts birthday parties and other celebrations, and keeps a dedicated tequila list to go with the menu.
Michelin has awarded Sol de Mexico a Bib Gourmand in its Chicago guide four times — in 2019, 2021, 2024, and 2025. The Infatuation has also rated it 7.7 out of 10.
