Sol Tacos & Tequila set to open in Forsyth

The Castillo family owns two restaurants in McDonough -- Castillo Real Mexican Cocina and Los Portales Mexican Grill

FORSYTH, Ga. — Sol Tacos & Tequila is a family-run restaurant that will open its doors in Forsyth in late September.

General Manager Lucio Castillo says there are two other restaurants in the family. Castillo and his immediate family came from Ohio to start this business.

"Family ties brought us back to the area," he said.

The family's two other restaurants are in McDonough -- Castillo Real Mexican Cocina & Bar, and Los Portales Mexican Grill & Bar.

"They have been there since about 2001, they are really known in the Henry County area," Castillo said. "So, we are trying to expand the family recipes to this beautiful town."

Castillo says he and his family are happy to expand in such a "charming" place.

"We think there is a lot of potential here in the Forsyth area," he said. "We're bringing along our three children." 

Along with tacos and tequila, the restaurant will offer more Tex-Mex style options.

They're having a raffle, where one lucky winner will receive 36 tacos and everyone who enters will receive a free cheese dip.

Marketing Manager Brandon Castillo says the raffle is designed "to get to know more people."
