I was in line today ordering a wet burrito and this guy that took my order for the cold section was really stingy with the... toppings. He was doing the tiniest pinches of everything, especially guacamole. The serving size of the guacamole was less thana plastic spoon. I asked if he could put more than that but he said it?ll be an extra charge. Very unprofessional and unethical.As I watched the people order after me he gave them normal portion sizes. Very upset, this restaurant gets worse and worse overtime, first it was price inflation now it?s just being stingy with ingredients. Response: I understand that, but I?m still acustomer that comes here regularly, I?ve worked at chipotle before. It was the fact that even the first topping I asked for wasa teaspoon worth of cheese, not even after the 2nd or 3rd thing I asked for, and there was little to know guacamole present.Plus instead of giving me Chip bag like normal, they threw chips into the same bowl as my order to save a bag or save like 5pieces of chips.

Try the 007 Tacos, they're fantastic. The burrito bowls and the quesadillas are great, they've got surprisingly good wings too.... The hot salsa is something unique if you like spicy food. Read more

Stopped here on the way back from Newport for lunch. Food was cheap, authentic, and fantastic. Had the street tacos and... burritos, both were great! Read more

Fantastic Mexican food with aa largely college student atmosphere. Superb Service on a very busy night. This restaurant also... delivers to the URI campus. It was our first time there and we will be back. Read more

Very poor service. Came to pick up a takeout order just before a rush began and they opted to prioritize those who showed up... over handling my order. I waited 15mins before leaving, having been ignored until being told my order was taking so long becausethey were using ?chicken wing? for it?Pretty obnoxious excuse when you can see your exact order being made and served to others.Unless you?re a college kid with no options, avoid this place.

Calientes is the absolute best food you can get on campus. I?ve never had a better burrito in my entire life and all the... ingredients are made fresh every day. If you think you know what good queso tastes like and you?ve never been to Calientes yourdead wrong. The guys who work there are super friendly and make you feel at home when dining in. It?s very hard to find healthyfood on a college campus and somehow this place is just that while simultaneously being the best comfort food ever. I?ll neverforget this place and will guarenteed be coming back for visits even after I graduate. Go Rhody! Read more

This place is never really busy, I don't why? I've had the Steak, Chicken and Shrimp Fajitas. Each of them where great. Now I'm... on a street tacos kick there. The steak ones where great. Read more
