After one meal here, we understood why. Calle Sol has a cool laid back vibe, great service, strong mojitos, and food that absolutely delivers. The ceviche is the star for a reason. Super fresh with bright flavor, and the crispy plantains alongside it were the perfect seafood fish combo. The skinny spicy margarita with the tajín rim and mojitos were excellent too. Our favorite was the Cuban rice. Rich flavor with this aioli on top that made everyone at the table keep stealing bites from each other. The vaca frita (beef) had great flavor with crispy edges done right, and the banana tres leches dessert was flat out dangerous. Easily enough for three people unless your family has zero self control. We don't really have Cuban food like this back home, so this felt like a treat. Safe to say our daughter picked a winner. We'll definitely be back next trip to Charlotte.

Pisco sour: definitely taste the alcohol. I enjoyed it. A little sweet. Not really sour or I couldn't taste it. Chichamora: spiced drink. Light tangy fruity flavor. Like a light punch. Fried yucca and cheesy: 4 stars. Yummy yucca balls filled with cheeses you have to eat hot for the gooey cheesiness but be careful because the are hot. Make sure to eat with the dip for next level flavor. Shrimp ceviche: 3.5 stars. Different toppings provided different flavors (I.e. crunchy corn, sweet potatoes, salty plaintains chips, & soft corn kernels) texture but I wished there was more shrimp and a slight more acidity or lime juice. Also some of the fried corn kernels were burnt so it had bitter taste. Vaca Frita:Garlic/onion shredded braised beef. 4.5 stars. Came with beans, rice, and yucca mash. Overall the flavors were good and I really enjoyed it.

It's billed as Peruvian rotisserie chicken and Mexican food, but apparently the Mexican cook wasn't there so no one could fix a taco. So we tried to order from the Peruvian menu, but they didn't have the chicken on there either. At this point, we just said give us whatever you have, which turned out to be a leg quarter, fries and small salad. The chicken was very juicy and had been rubbed with a spice mixture that had garlic, cumin, salt.pepper, garlic and onion powder i think. I would have liked to have the skin cooked more crispy, but otherwise it was pretty good and the mustard-based Peruvian hot sauce was great with it. The salad was lettuce shreds with tomato and cucumber slice with a mustard and vinegar based dressing, it was ok but hard to eat with a plastic fork. The fries were just typical frozen fries, but they were hot, crisp and pretty good when doused with their hot sauce. Also had what was supposed to be a pineapple agua fresca, but it just tasted like coconut which i detest so that got returned. The plate was $7.99 which i think is a bit high for what you get. This wasn't bad, but it wouldn't cause me to go out of the way to get it again. If i were there and hungry i would go back. It's not nearly as good as the place up the street that went out of business, so i don' think this place will last long unfortunately. The man that runs it was super nice and helpful, so I wish him well.
