Cafe Del Sol

Thursday night & were seated right away, first visit and was impressed immediately with the attentiveness, we ordered drinks a Margarita and Iced Tea for my wife. She ordered the Pasta Del Sol & I got the Crab Fettuccini Pasta. The presentation was 50% of the experience, and the food was delicious. I couldn’t stop myself from finishing it along with an excellent garden salad, although my wife has more self control & brought ½ home. My compliments to the chef the night we were there and our waitress Susie was awesome and very friendly.
I encourage you to give them a try, I think you’ll be impressed! Don’t judge it by the location, it’s nice inside and very clean. I know we’ll go back, and I hope to see you there as well. Congrats to the ownership & management, you’ve got a new local customer !!!

I always enjoy my food when delivered but while trying to order today I encountered a problem. First I could not get through for a hour. An O can understand the friday delivery rush, however, when I finally got ahold of someone she was rude. No apologies on the wait, almost a so what attitude. I then spoke with Carla a also unfriendly staff member who I was told was the manager. I hate to see something like this to a business I usually enjoyed.

This place was EXCELLENT! California salad was amazing, super fresh. Service was awesome. Cute little place. Loved it, highly recommend.

terrible servers with terrible attitudes. Ruined a perfectly good dinner. Never again!

The service was good and the food was amazing. A must try is the Crab Nachos the couple times I have been there I have gotten them and they never disappoint. They were very accommodating for a group of 11 and even asked if we wanted separate checks instead of bringing the full bill and then having to split afterwards (hard to find now a days).

Love this place! This was my first visit but I will definitely be back. The Margarita pizza was delicious. It had a wonderful thin crust with lots of cheese. We also ordered a gyro which was very good. Lots of tender beef and lamb. Delicious. The portions were very generous. Our waitress, Kathryn, was very friendly and attentive. All in all, a great place to go if you’re in Hagerstown.

Great place, love the ambiance, the food is spectacular. Nice variety and excellent wines to pair with. Not a big restaurant but it’s great!

Texas Fajita feeds two. My son and I loved it. Would recommend here not overpriced — good food.

Great place. Excellent food. Wonderful staff. Very glad we found this place on our way to Charlottesville. Stop in if you have the chance.

Just staying at a hotel near by for vacation, decided to get some food at a local restaurant. Went here, the service was amazing and the food even more so. It was pretty packed when we got there and our food came out lightning fast. Would have been worth the wait if we had to because the food was great. Highly recommended.

excellent food!

I’ve visited here several times, and I look forward to coming back! I really like the selection, from pizzas and calzones (yum!) to sandwiches and salads that go above what you normally find at a casual place, there is a lot to choose from. Great desserts, too. I especially enjoyed the cannoli shooter! It was a mini, deconstructed cannoli with raspberry purée, and it was awesome! Great for both adults and kids, the Café is reasonably priced and very clean.

I love everything about this place. Awesome wait staff, ever evolving food and beverage menu, and great casual atmosphere. The Cuban is to die for, just ask them to hold the mayo if you are a mustard guy like me.

We don’t live in Hagerstown but since my husband works there, we come up to have lunch with him from time to time. I was very happy with our decision to check out Café del Sol.
I had the gyro, my husband had the Cuban and my son had the kid’s chicken and fries. Everything seemed to be homemade and was amazingly fresh and tasty. I’ve already been craving that gyro and it’s only been 1 day. The restaurant itself is nice and clean and I enjoyed the ambiance (if you are into that type of thing).
I just really wish they had a location in Frederick. It would definitely be successful. What do you say, guys?

And in conclusion…
Let me for at say that I don’t mind mayonnaise. It has its place when used sparingly. However…
We ordered 3 items from the menu and each was covered in mayonnaise based sauce. Each item would have been great without it. I’m baffled at why a restaurant would need to cover up great flavor with mayonnaise.
One of the items, the Crab Nachos, were not nachos at all, and I’m pretty sure there wasn’t any crab. The dish consisted of kettle chips, covered in melted cheese and about 4 ounces of spicy mayo. We picked through it looking for anything that resembled crab, and deduced that by Crab, they meant artificial crab flavoring, and by nachos, they meant potato chips. By spicy mayo, they meant more spicy mayo than anyone would want to consume in a lifetime. Seriously, aren’t chips covered in melted cheese enough? Spicy mayo doesn’t even make sense on this dish and even if it wasn’t an irate amount, it simply doesn’t work. Who devised this monstrosity of fat? Guy Fieri?
When the crab nachos came out and I saw that someone had purposely dumped a 50 gallon drum of mayonnaise on it, I asked if the other dishes had mayonnaise sauce on them and I was told «yes, but its different, its sriracha mayonnaise.» I asked if they could be made without it and was told «oh but its different, its sriracha mayonnaise.» I’m dumbfounded at why someone can’t comprehend that not everyone wants a massive amount of mayonnaise on their dinner. It doesn’t matter what form of mayonnaise sauce it is, its mayonnaise and it doesn’t need to be on every single dish. So I asked again if they could be made with it on the side and was told «oh its already done.» Any decent server would have it remade for you, or at least the toppings scraped off and new toppings put on sans mayonnaise. Not in Hagerstown, so she brought out yet another 7800 calories of mayonnaise topped food. I scraped off the piles of mayonnaise and asked if she could just get me a side of the toppings and she was able to do… well…what she should have offered to do in the first place.
Moral of the story for the restaurant, don’t put mayonnaise all over your food. Give it as a side so that if people want it, they will use it. You can’t remove mayonnaise from a dish. Its not like a tomato slice or lettuce. Once it is on it, its on it.
I’m giving 2 stars for both the unneeded use of mayonnaise and the lack of good service. Which is stupid on my part, because if there are 2 things you are guaranteed to get in Hagerstown, its lots of fat and poor service.

My husband and I love this place. The food is fantastic and the service is just as good. The food comes out warm and at a good pace and I’ve not tasted anything less that YUM there. The parking get’s pretty backed up during rush hours and the waiting area at the front is pretty small so that makes it a bit cramped at times. But the wait never bothered us because we knew it would be worth it every time. Also, a note from my husband: Try the soup of the day no matter what it is, it’s always delicious.

Love, Love, Love their Gourmet Pizza, especially the «Greek»! Great service, friendly and casual atmosphere tucked away in Hagerstown.

While I don’t have a specific experience in mind, I have been to Café Del Sol numerous times and I always leave full and happy. I feel like this place has good enough food for a date night out but also low enough prices for a casual dinner as well.

Café Del Sol provides some of the better food and service in the Hagerstown area.
They offer a variety of food, with a large selection of salads, sandwiches, pizzas, and other specialties. I’ve eaten my way through almost the whole menu, so I’ll just share some highlights!
I’m a big fan of having healthy and fresh options and they definitely don’t disappoint. The Waldorf and California salads are two of my favorites; they are both very flavorful and filling. As for soups, they are all pretty good, but the tomato bisque is my favorite. I’ve even tried to recreate this simple soup in my own home, but it just doesn’t compare.
If a salad won’t cut it, I highly suggest the burger. It’s pretty damn good. My other favorites are the avocado club and the quesadillas. The pizzas are also a delish, but be prepared to be stuffed (or share, if that’s your thing)!
The restaurant is modern, clean, and comfortable. The waitstaff are always friendly and helpful. The food is fresh, flavorful, and delicious. This is an excellent date spot if you want to avoid chain restaurants. Or good for a Sunday-​after-​church lunch. It’s pretty much good for any mood or occasion. I’m a fan. Obviously.

Not as good as other reviewers make it out o be.
Friendly staff, but do you really want to see them cleaning dirty dishes etc as you walk in?
Some bizarre music playing, not bad music just bizarre.
Food on the expensive side for the use, tastes good, smells even better.
Kinda like to eat food that doesn’t drip some kind of fluid down me as I eat it. Give away that the spinach is frozen & not fresh.
