EL SOL sits on the basement first floor of the Osaka Ekimae Second Building in Umeda, Kita Ward, a one-minute walk from Kitashinchi Station. It serves Italian and Spanish bar food, with orders of tapas platters, seafood paella, squid ink pasta and ajillo alongside wine. The bar-style space has counter and table seating, and dishes come out one plate at a time. The menu is broad, which suits sharing several dishes.
