FAQ
Feedback
I ordered takeout from this restaurant and was quite disappointed. The enchiladas lacked flavor to the point that I couldn’t even finish the first one. The Pollo en crema was also tasteless, and the beans were extremely bland. When I initially searched for a Guatemalan restaurant, I came across another review suggesting Restaurant Quetzal, and I'm really glad I took that advice. The food at Quetzal was bursting with flavor and definitely worth the extra drive. I wanted to give this place a shot since it’s closer to me, but I won’t be coming back. While the staff were friendly, the lack of flavor in the food is just too much for me to overlook.
Truly a gem in DC, authentic guatemalan food. A place for local central Americans to eat and rest next to the Guatemalan Consulate. Price is fair, food healthy and delicious
