Several American dishes cheeseburgers, chicken sandwiches. Alfredo. Chicken , steak or shrimp. Def recommend. The salsa bowls are tiny. Very large portions

Absolutely amazing food here. I’ve lived 5 mins away for years and never stopped by but now I’ll be a regular. The Sopes were the best I’ve ever had, the meat was tender, veggies were fresh and crisp, and everything was cooked perfectly. By only issue was the fries with my Sandwich were soggy since I got take out, but that’s not the restaurants fault. The plantains were 10/10 so I’ll just get those instead as my side next time. I will be back again and again!!

I got the fried tilapia & I must say I was pleasantly surprised. The fish was well seasoned & the rice & beans were as well. The fish was bigger than I expected too. My only complaint is there was some kind of lint closed in the container. Other than that everything was good.

Mediocre dining experience for us. Food is really flavorful but the meat is not good (chewy and biney). Had mole which tasted really rich and good, but it came with only 4 small pieces of meat which were all bones.
My wife had a burrito which was Ok but a bit dry; the burrito oddly enough came with curly fries.
We also tried flan which had a consistency which is more cheesecake like. The flan was rather large and tasted good. I would give it a 4/5 by itself.
Overall this restaurant seems like a mixed bag to me. The flavor is there but I do t like overall what I am chewing for lack of better terms.

Got all this for under $12. Tacos were bangin’ (asada, pastor, and campechanos). Tender flavorful tortillas. Salsas were all delicious, with my favorite being the habanero; it was spicy and had a ton of flavor. I walked in for a to go order and it took about 5 minutes to get my food. Will definitely be coming back for more!

TL;DR: Asada fries are peak, get a side of mixed veggies, skip the MEGA Torta,. Best Quality for price.
Been getting doordash from here for a while and decided that I wanted to eat here fresh.
Food was authentic and delicious. I got the Asada fries, which I 100% recommend as the appetizer, which could easily be shared with 4 friends or 2 bigbacks.
I got the MegaTorta as a main, but it wasn’t for me. Felt more breakfast-y and needed some extra flavor. I have to say the mixed vegetables was on point and definitely a great side.
I will be coming here more often.

Great little place! Very friendly. Prompt service. Nice atmosphere, very clean.The salsa is super fresh (made from scratch), one of best I’ve tasted so far. My family and I had brunch here and it was delicious! Very affordable and generous servings of food! Do yourself a favor and give this place a shot if you’re in the area!

Great Birria tacos, amazing price. Very fresh tortilla chips and really great salsa. Big menu but fresh ingredients so everything’s good. Excellent service, even helped us pick our menu items.

The Latin American Quetzal Restaurant is superior when it comes to serving red snapper! It was perfectly cooked in the Huachinango style (deep fried without a batter). It was served with rice, beans, avocado, cactus salad, pickled onions, jalapeno salsa, and lime.
This was all served on two big platters. The red snapper was huge and it sat on a sizzling hot iron plate. I could not believe the quality and amount of food they served for only $23.99!
They also make their own aqua frescas. I had a mix of their mango and passion fruit aqua frescas mixed together. It was delicious!
I would also like to say that the service there was very good and attentive. There is no question that I will be coming back again!
Well, I have been back there a few times now and I have a 2nd review…
Yes, I live in North Carolina, and so this is a crazy thing to say, but these are the best ribs I have ever had in North Carolina!
A little personal info, I have been eating ribs all over the nation for decades now and I was raised in the South, Florida to be exact. When I was in grade school, my father brought me to Geech’s Pig Meat BBQ and they specialized in a hot yellow mustard base sauce that is applied while the ribs are being smoked. This is still my favorite way to have some ribs. But a good hot yellow mustard sauce is tough to find at a restaurant.
The next best ribs I have found in the nation are in North Carolina, a little place in Goldsboro that is no longer there. However, today I have found an amazing batch of ribs like you’ve probably never tried before. And it is at a place you would not think about when you think of “ribs,” but these are killer short pork ribs in a wonderful dark mole sauce.
The mole sauce there is made from mild smoked red and black chiles, and it is almost like a paste. It is rich, spicy, but not hot, and has a beautiful balance of flavors. The short ribs, though, are only a few inches tall, are very thick with super tender meat that has been simmered in the mole for hours.
The meal included a large amount of white rice and black beans. Their black beans are very flavorful with just the right amount of spices and onions. There was a small salad of tomato, avocado, and lettuce included. When you are seated, you are greeted with their killer chips and salsa.
These are not your normal fried tortilla chips. Quetzal’s chips are very light, thin, and delicate, served warmed. They bring to your table with the chips two small bottles of salsa, one green and one red. They also have a special orange habanero sauce in a squeeze bottle that you have to ask for. I recommend mixing some of the orange into the green.
Also recommended is to try one of their homemade fresh fruit drinks, Aqua Fresca. They usually have Mango and Passion Fruit available, and I get the two mixed together.
There has yet to be a time when I have gone to this wonderful restaurant and been able to finish all the food served to me. The portions are large and well worth what they are charging. The mole rib dish I am speaking of is called “Mole de Puerco,” and you will find it on the last page of their large menu. It is only $12.99!
Many times I go there, I get the Huachinango. That is a whole large red snapper perfectly cooked, and it is probably the best deal you will find in NC for a whole red snapper of this size, only $23.99!
Quetzal is not your usual “Mexican” restaurant. It is a Latin American restaurant featuring foods from South of the Border, Mexico to Argentina.
