Client: El Sol GL- Mineola, NY

El Sol GL – Social Media

El Sol GL is a modern Mexican restaurant based in Mineola, NY—and their social media needed to reflect the same cool, polished, and delicious vibe as their food and space. From the very first month, I focused on delivering a consistent brand voice, crave-worthy visuals, and strategic calls-to-action.

With zero paid ads, the account reached over 30,000 users in the first month and began building a genuine, engaged local audience. Every post has a purpose, and every piece of content is crafted with the restaurant’s real business goals in mind.
