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!

Small authentic Mexican restaurant that packs a punch! Customer service was good, I was greeted by a sweet lady who helped me understand the menu and helped me with my order. The tables and floors were clean so I decided to give it a try. I ordered the steak fajita meal and it was yum! Seasoned well, with rice and refried beans and hand made tortillas plus nacho chips all at decent prices with great size portions! It has a small cozy family feel to it with native decor if you want to eat in. I will definitely be back to try other entrees.

Took a chance - received a reward. My husband was craving tortillas after church. I remembered a place I'd gone once out around Concord/Kannapolis to we set our GPS. When we arrived, I knew this was not the place I'd been, but we decided to give it a try. He had the Platillos Los Dos Hermanos, and I had Huarache Quetzal with the steak. Everything tasted fresh and homemade from chips and salsa (the Verde was our favorite) through our entrees to the Margaritas. Oh! And the flan! Delicioso! I must make special mention of our waitress. She greeted us with sweet smiles from start to finish, and served us with excellence and kind attention. We'll be back.

First time trying Quetzel. Maybe it was the timing of the lack of business but I was disappointed in mymeal as was 3 of the 4 that had lunch. The quesidilla only had chicken. I know how hard all the business are trying to survive so I don't want to be negative. Hope all small businesses will get through this difficult time.

"WOW!!!" Or should I say "OLE!!!", I eat out often and am always looking for good food. I've been in the Queen City for six years and have tried a lot of Mexican cuisine, as well as a multitude of other cuisines. This unassuming, modest , out of the way(unless you live in Kannapolis), is by far the best authentic Mexican restaurant I have patronized since relocating! The staff are welcoming, courteous and extremely knowledgeable when it comes to food. The decor isn't anything to write home about but it's not awful either. But they more than make up for it with their servers infectious smiles and DELICIOUS food... Point of interest: I've eaten here 3 times and have never heard them speak English; BE FOREWARNED!!!Hello again, I wanted to update potential patrons. My wife and I recently had a late dinner here at Quetzal, and to my surprise, what did I hear, nothing less than clear, albeit with a slight accent, ENGLISH!!! That's right I stand corrected they do have English speaking servers. By the way, the food is still delicious.

2nd time here. Even better than the first time. Food has selections like a Resort would and a very extensive menu. Prices are VERY reasonable. The Fajita lunch plate was wonderful and the meat was the BEST Fajita meat I've ever had, just great tasting and TENDER - definitely a better cut of beef. Service was excellent and very friendly. It's a small place, and casual. But clean and well kept. The server and counter people were very friendly, smiling all the while. I'm no expert but the menu seemed authentic and complex. They make fresh items and are proud of their food. The salsa and chips were exceptional and made there. They have a selection of beers and offered some dessert. I will definitely come back !

Soo good. Me and my boyfriend came here just wanting to try a new restaurant when we pulled up we were hesitant but this was a "just trust the process" moment. It's small on the inside but cute. Our waitress was so sweet, we both ordered fajitas and this was real Mexican food. Everything was so good. Will definitely be back
