Start things off with a refreshing Stiltsville Special Rum Punch or a tasty Junipa Colada, a bubbly pineapple soda with Spiced Rum.

If you're dining with friends, order a few dishes and pass them around -- most are big enough to share. Service was outstanding on both our visits here, and ample parking is available in the Apex decks. A fantastic addition to the SouthPark dining scene, Calle Sol is one spot I hope stays around for a long time.

We started with the ceviche--an interesting pairing that my husband absolutely loved--and an intriguing, flavorful chicken arepa. The real showstopper, however, was the "Market Catch" red snapper bathed in a warm, spicy Caribbean sauce. To wash it all down, the guava, peach, and classic mojitos were refreshing. This Southpark gem is officially on our "must-return" list!

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.

Whatever changed... keep that energy No sé qué pero en Punta Cana definitivamente cambió algo... y me encanta De verdad parece que hay nueva administración entrenando a los chefs (cocineros), porque la diferencia ¡se siente en el paladar! Antes era inconsistente, pero ahora la comida está BUENA, BUENISIMA con sabor, fresca y con ese toque dominicano que hacía falta. Que sigan así, porque por fin Punta Cana ya no me está decepcionando. ¡Voy a regresar!

Our meal was excellent as it has consistently been, especially since the changes have been made to the restaurant. I want to make sure that I mention the cleanliness of the women's bathroom. This is the second time in a row that I've used it and it is very well maintained. It's large, clean and odorless. It gives me an overall positive feeling about the restaurant, which adds to my comfort when we eat here. We love coming here. The prices are reasonable, the portion sizes are just right, and the servers are attentive and friendly. A great experience!!

When I initially visited (in their first couple of months after opening) I was super in love with this place. Unfortunately every experience after that has been super inconsistent. I've ordered their seafood sancocho three times and every single time I've gotten a different dish. The last time I ordered it - it was more so vegetables with 2 teaspoons of broth, some rice and old fried yucca. If you look at the photo - I believe you can tell the yucca looks like it'd been in the fridge for days and they just threw it in there for good measure. The waiter didn't smile and generally looked miserable to have to deal with me. I asked for hot sauce that never came. Just overall, really disappointed in my last experience here and unfortunately won't be retuning due to how inconsistent my last few visits have been. You might get something that tastes decent, you might not.

I don't know how to call it in US English but Nigerians have something similar called Pap. Chilaquiles isn't on menu but avoid it. They serve it with stew meat or rump not carne asada. Super salty, too. Best if you get it to use the bland rice to cut that sodium intake.

The service is also slow and a little disorganized, so I recommend to stay patient when you visit. Overall, I will continue to come to enjoy their delicious, hard-to-find, Ecuadorian food! P.S. I was too focused on eating that I forgot to take pictures, so here are screenshots of a video that I sent to my family lol.

It's the perfect spot for date night or quiet night to eat by yourself. The service is nice and quick with the plates coming out quick after each other. We started with French 75 - they were a little tart / stronger than expected . The first plate to come out was the Duck Confit Taco- nothing really to grab my attention; the larger pieces of Duck on top were cold however it had chunks of Duck within the taco. Next few plates were the Sea Scallops and Firecracker shrimp - they were our favorite of the night ! 10/10 for both dishes ; seasoned really well and the flavor on the rice was so tasty as well as the scallops cooked perfectly. The crispy firecracker shrimp were a great size and plenty to share . The Crab Spring Roll and Crab Burrito - the burrito was our least favorite with no true flavor to it. The crab spring roll had a really great crispy wrap , the interior of it reminded me of crab Rangoon mix which was different. Overall decent experience with a few highlights of the night ! I would come and visit again to try the different seasonal items that come on the menu next!
