At Quetzal, we celebrate regional Mexican cuisine, inspired by traditional flavours and cooking styles, all cooked over a 28 foot-long open fire that runs the span of the hot line.  Traditional moles, sauces and little-known native ingredients are transported to Toronto and infused with the bounty of local Ontario and Canadian produce, for a one-of-a-kind dining experience. Quetzal is located at the corner of College & Bathurst, at the edges of four Toronto hotspot neighbourhoods: Little Italy, Kensington Market, Harbord Village, and the Annex.

From the OpenTable editors: Fire-kissed flavours from a wood-burning grill and lesser-seen Mexican dishes that go beyond tacos and tostadas earned Quetzal a MICHELIN star. A creative cocktail menu centred on tequila and mezcal, plus a curvy, eye-catching ceiling that channels a Mexican market, complete the restaurant’s ultra-cool vibe.

    Ask the waiter for suggestions. We especially loved the bream fish, scallops and lamb and some appetizer.

    This is our second time there. The last time was 2 yrs ago. We had the curated tasting menu. It was fabulous then. This time we also did the same. We were pleasantly surprised with some new dishes. They were all outstanding and the flavour profiles were unique and delicious. Thank you for a lovely dining experience once again!

    One of the most fun Michelin dining experiences. Food is creative, unserious, and absolutely delicious. Environment is relaxed and the staff are both fun and knowledgeable. We did the tasting menu and they fully customized it to our tastes and hunger level. Their white wine list is incredible, and highly recommend the Single Vineyard Albarino from Bodega Garzon.

    I LOVE Quetzal! Always a must when in Toronto. The food is stellar, the service is wonderful and the wait staff very attentive. But the food. I go home to Vancouver and can't wait to return!! I was lucky enough to be sitting next to a table that basically ordered the entire menu; not only did I love my own flavors but lived vicariously and know what I'd order next time! (looking at you, bone marrow)
