Restaurants near Museum of American Railroad

Rare to have such a great experience all round nowadays, but this was the case with Mar Y Sol. From arriving to valet parking, the amazing and knowledgeable service and suggestions from Andrew (our server for the evening) to the delicious food and cocktails (frozen margarita, yum! A tropical paradise in a pottery mug!) and the perfect ambiance and helpful, friendly staff all round (smiling, friendly, helping take photos after calling to say we’d left our card behind etc), I’d say this is a must visit place. We had a wonderful experience!

My first visit. The service was excellent. The food portions were surprisingly large. The waitress was on. She checked on our table appropriately. I also liked that I called the restaurant with questions. Someone answered and was very helpful.

Excellent Fresh Thai Ahi Veggie dish. Service was stellar

Treated my wife to a day date. From the moment we walked in, the hostess at the host stand was welcoming and our server Jordan was outstanding with his recommendations. I had the Chicken Parm with the vodka sauce and my wife had the blackened pork chops. We both were surprised at the large portions. The ambience was very inviting. Our only negative review would be the dessert. We wanted the chocolate cake fondue to be warmer and we thought it was too rich. We couldn’t finish it. It was delicious but way too rich for us. Overall, great value, tasty menu and great service. We can’t wait to go back.

This was our first time at the Lakewood location. My wife and I have been to the location in Addison before but the Lakewood store was exceptional. We were seated before our reservation time which was nice. Our server Whitney did a great job, our food was delicious, and my cocktail was on point. Highly recommend this Lakewood staple!
