Food was prepared super quickly and the tacos are both economical and delicious! Service was amazing and though this place is slightly off the beaten path for non-locals, it’s definitely worth visiting.

Best Mexican spot you will find in the Warwick/ West Warwick area! I get the enchiladas all the time. Staff is friendly, and they have a great menu. The street tacos are also great. Can’t recommend Caliente more, and will be my go to for dinner for the foreseeable future.

Caliente has never disappointed. We have tried several dishes and all were delicious. The 007 tacos are amazing. It is a fan favorite in our house and their hot sauce means business. We will be back again and again. Delicious! Keep up the great work!

I've had the regular tacos a few times, but today I decided to get the birria tacos and I'm glad I did. The meat was juicy and flavorful, and shell was perfectly crisp, zero complaints. It was nice to sit outside and enjoy my meal.

Food is always great. Staff is always pleasant. Enough space in the restaurant not the cutest place to eat but the food is worth it!

This is a takeout review. All food is eaten fresh in the vehicle. I ordered three types of tacos. Birria, Al Pastor, and carnitas. All three were excellent, great flavor, lots of food, and very filling. On a scale from 0-10 I would rate this 8.3.

This place is like chipotle but has more meat and topping selections. I ordered a bowl to go. But you can make it to a salad. Definitely a good place to go especially if you want to be able to have more veggies when you are on the go.
