    Spicy chicken sandwich with French Fries
    Shawn W.

    I made the terrible mistake of placing an online order on a Sunday during lunch time. At least, that's what I'm going to say is the reason for my experience. Upon placing my order it said the food will be ready for pickup in 15 minutes. I arrived at the restaurant 15 minutes later and there was a long line to order but I went to the other side where people were picking up their orders as their names were called. After about 5 minutes I went up and asked if my name had already been called, it hadn't. I waited another 15 minutes and everyone in line had their names called and orders given to them. After another 10 minutes I went back up and asked if my order was ready. After going to the back, I was told by the worker that it should be another 5 minutes. After another 15 minutes and there being no line to pick up food I went up again and asked another worker for the status. After 5 more minutes I was finally given my food. At this point I could have just ordered at the restaurant and left 30 minutes prior since I was only getting a chicken sandwich meal for one and multiple families had order 20 piece chicken meals and were long gone. The food itself was ok. The fries remind me of McDonalds fries but with a little less salt and pretty soggy. The box of fries were also barely filled so it wasn't that many in there. The spicy chicken sandwich was ok as well but most of the flavor comes from the spicy sauce on it. Also, I requested lettuce but there wasn't any on there. Maybe I just had a bad first experience. I'm willing to try out another location and other items on the menu before completely saying no to Apollo Camp

    Fave thing I had was the horchata drink. I love those and to see it's free refills is awesome because most places that serve it don't offer that. The food was just ok for me. I got the 3pc with side of rice. The rice was good, chicken was just average for me. Didn't get a wow factor. But service was good and the place was very clean.

    8 Pieces Chicken Family Meal
    Melissa Z.

    This place is amazing!! It doesn't look like much from the outside honestly, it looked like a random lowkey fast food spot on the east side of Charlotte. However, we had already found this place on yelp and it looked good so we knew we had to try it. To start off, the food is so cheap and affordable. For the amount of the food they give and the quality and taste of it, I think this place deserves to raise its prices. The grilled and fried chicken is sooo juicy and flavorful, and the yuca fries are now my favorite of the ones I've had from other restaurants. My personal favorite side was the corn salad, which was corn, peppers, tomatoes, and feta cheese mixed with a delicious dressing. The rice and plantains were great too. We got 8 pieces of chicken (half grilled, half fried), yuca fries, rice, corn salad, and plantains all for only $30. I will definitely be coming back to this place.

    the food was delicious! i ordered the 8 piece meal with fries and mac and cheese as the sides, the mac and cheese was very cheesy and the fries were thin and had a good taste the service was good also a little bit of a wait but overall okay. the ambience was calm even though i went at 10 at night overall it was a good experience for my first time!

    Our daughter lives in Charlotte, and this was the very first place she took us after picking us up…read morefrom the airport, one of her favorite spots in town. 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.

    When we are craving Peruvian food, Calle Sol always comes top of mind, with their combination of…read morehuge portions, excellent prices, and attentive service. We love their Yuquitas de Queso as an appetizer. The yucca is very crispy, with delicious melted cheese inside. The green sauce they serve it with is exceptional, and we use it with our entrees, too. Sadly, this dish wasn't available on our last visit, so we switched it up and tried their black bean soup and half avocado stuffed with chicken. Both were delicious, so I'm glad we had an opportunity to branch out a bit. For our entrees, we typically get the Vaca Frita and Lechon Asado. Both meats are always tender, flavorful, and NOT overly salty (yay!). The Vaca Frita is particularly good, with crispy beef served on top of caramelized onions. The lime flavor is amazing in this dish. The rice and beans are perfect accompaniments to both dishes. Their portions are generous, and we usually take some of our meals home. We've always had great service at Calle Sol. We never have to wait long for our food, either. I like how the servers work to help each other out when busy! A note about parking--there are only a few spots directly in front of the restaurant, so you'll be lucky to get one of them. There's a public parking lot just down the street on Thomas (across from Dish), and street parking throughout Plaza Midwood. We often park on the street near Harris Teeter and Supperland, a quick walk to Calle Sol. Just give yourself extra time to find a parking spot if you arrive during busier dining hours. Well can't wait to return!

The staff primarily speaks Spanish as a heads up but can serve you in english as well. The Spanish honestly makes the experience even better & me & my friend got to practice the language. ANYWAY, I ordered the pollo con crema & they got the Pupusas. The cream from the pollo con crema is so flavorful that honestly if they sold just the sauce I would buy it. I tend to avoid beans but my first scoop of them made me speak out "This is good!" . Beans, two tortillas, lettuce & bell peppers & rice come on this dish to make something magical lol. The pupusas are primarily made of cheese but it is good cheese lol. If you happen to be a vegetarian & a cheese lover have you a order of that.

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.
