About the restaurant

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.

Quetzal has earned some of the industry’s highest honours, including ranking No. 7 on the 2026 North America’s Best Restaurants list, maintaining a One Michelin Star since the inaugural Toronto guide in 2022, and being named No. 4 on Canada’s 100 Best Restaurants list in 2026.

High Park

About the restaurant

The new sister restaurant to Annex favourite "El Pocho"- El Chino Antojitos Bar is a modern Mexican spot in Bloordale serving bold, craveable small plates and easygoing weeknight tasting menus. Led by Cezar Ramirez (of El Pocho) and chef Alek Wilson (of El Pocho), the menu brings subtle Asian influence into classic Mexican antojitos for a fresh, exciting take.

The food is backed by a tight, inventive cocktail list, with standouts like the Ume Mezcal Martini, Yuzu Margarita, and Pandan Palenque.

The entire menu is gluten free, with the ability to accommodate dietary restrictions with notice.
