Las Iguanas - Newport

You're in the Kingsway Centre, surrounded by the usual shopping mall chaos, and then you walk into Las Iguanas and suddenly you're somewhere properly different. The room's got that smart-casual vibe—modern but not trying too hard—and there's actual energy in here, especially on weekends. The menu pulls from across Latin America, so you're getting Peruvian ceviches, Brazilian grilled meats, Chilean wines, all done with proper technique and respect for the ingredients. It's the kind of place where you can tell the kitchen knows what it's doing.
