Sol y Luna is an upscale Mexican tapas restaurant located at 2811 7th Avenue South in Lakeview. It was opened by Guillermo Castro, who also launched Cantina, with partner Daniel Rubio. Castro named the restaurant in honor of his two sons, Marcus and Gabe. After Guillermo died in 2011, the restaurant was taken over by his brothers, Alex and Jorge.

The restaurant features small plates of fresh-made Hispanic and southwestern dishes. The bar features over 30 different tequilas.

A 2012 remodeling rejuvenated the interior and added a new metal sign created by artist Tracy Martin.
