"El Sol de Mexico is a just fine restaurant, in fact we were willing to come all the way down from Salem to visit this fine restaurant. We enjoy this restaurant as one of our favorites. For this reason we were rather saddened to find out that the restaurant is now Petty place. Yes I said Petty, meaning in every other restaurant of the Mexican variety they give you chips and salsa of plenty and they never say anything about this because it's part of the Mexican hospitality included in your meal. But now is a part of the policies of El Sol de Mexico they even include right in their menu that the policy is that your first basket of chips is free and each additional basket is going to be $2.50. as if the restaurant is not making enough money that they needed to be so incredibly Petty as to charge $2.50. was there some sort of major run on people stealing free chips? Were people coming in and not ordering food and just eating free chips and salsa never ordering an entree? Makes me wonder how Petty or restaurant has to be to think that the free Mexican tortilla chips and salsa now need to be charged for? Reminds me of the way McDonald's charges for extra condiments.. that's the reason I don't go to McDonald's. So if you don't like being treated Petty you probably won't like this restaurant. And for any owners or managers reading this review I actually have a degree in hospitality and I would love to see you change this policy or respond to this. Because trying to steal from your customers a few extra dollars wherever you can get it isn't good hospitality policy, and it isn't good fiscal policy. It's poor policy all around. I guarantee you're going to lose a lot more customers then you're going to gain with this and when you lose customers you're going to lose revenue. You just may have lost us."
