    Loaded Nacho Fries
    Matthew A.

    The loaded chicken fries are an absolute must-try. it's generous enough to share but delicious enough you'll want to keep it all to yourself. Whether you're in for a cheat day treat or just something satisfying and indulgent, these loaded chicken fries deliver on every level. You a load them with whatever you're craving and if you don't pay attention you'll walk right past this place.

    Absolutely delicious and fresh food! We enjoyed lunch at Caliente today and everything was perfect. Service was friendly and efficient behind the counter. The menu had plenty of choices and wow, it was delicious and very reasonably priced! It's on Thames street, near Wally's Wieners and across from a Public parking lot.

    Great selection. Great food. Favorites are fish tacos and the California bowl. Best food I've had in Rhode Island.

    The food is delicious from the nachos to the taco al pastor and quesadillia. Great spot for lunch, good prices for location.

    Do you not put cheese on your quesadillas? This is the second time I have had a pork quesadillia delivered without cheese?

    Friends in town and wanted a nice relaxing place to enjoy a meal. Not too busy for a midweek night…read more Had both bar or table seating available for quick seating. Sandy was our amazing server, provided great recommendations and very attentive to her respective tables. Cocktails were great, antipasto was a great start not too much to leave room for the main and desert! The focaccia was light and flavorful as well. Had the rigatoni bolognese which was prepared perfectly and had great flavor. Nearly licked the plate clean! Saved a little room for desert with both cakes being tasty and washed down with an espresso martini. Lovely place to have a date night or night out with friends!

    The ambience is very nice in here & I got sat right away. The wine menu was confusing because when…read moreI asked the waitress about the white wines per glass she said only 3 were available. She was nice enough to let me try them and I chose the Trevino which was very good and paired great with my food. The bread was nothing special but solid and the high quality olive oil made up for it. For my main I got the chicken milanese and it was divine. I loved the vinaigrette on top perfectly acidic and vinegary. It cut though the oil and heaviness of the breading which was perfectly salted by the way. The arugula bean salad was sooo good and created such a well balanced meal. The one thing I will say is I believe their fryer does fish and chicken bc my chicken had a slight ocean taste but since I like fish I was not bothered but non fish people beware!

    We recently visited this new establishment, which opened a few weeks ago in the former Hummingbird…read moreCafé space. The service was exceptional, and the menu boasts an impressive array of authentic Mexican dishes, including mole and pumpkin sauces--definitely not Tex-Mex. This is a much-needed addition to the local dining scene, as Rhode Island is not renowned for its Mexican or Tex-Mex options. Currently, Pero Solado is one of the few decent spots on the island, with a few more in the Providence and Central Falls area. Note that they do not have a liquor license, so you can enjoy Mexican sodas instead. Our meal consisted of guacamole and chips, carne asada, three tacos, and a side of beans. Everything was delicious; the beans were clearly homemade, and the tortillas were made from corn. The pricing was generally good, although the guacamole and chips at $10 seemed a bit steep. I highly recommend giving them a try to support another vibrant spot on Broadway. I'm looking forward to trying their breakfast offerings soon. Rating: Food: 5/5 Value: 4/6 Décor: 4/5 Service: 5/5 Noise Level: 1/5 (very quiet) Recommended!

    Decided to check this place out for a late lunch. This spot opened up fairly recently as well so…read moreeverything in there is of course brand new! First impressions is that they did a nice job at decorating this little spot, decor is great. Ordered a horchata, which you could tell was homemade and not from some pre-made mix, which of course made it taste that much more yummy. Main course I got was the chicken torta, which was flavorful and would be something I would order again:) Newport needs more Mexican food places that aren't the tired tex-mex style spots we have here. Give this spot a try!
