The Guanaquita Restaurant - Kitchener, Ontario

Just sososo amazing. And so many vegan/vegetarian options. I'm so happy and can't wait to be back!!! My friend got the birria and said 10/10 as well!!! (No photo cause she ate it so fast!)

A wonderful restaurant with excellent central american food. I had the Guanaquita platter which gave me a great sampling of what the place had to offer. The pupusas were exceptional. The salvadoran enchilada was not what I expected..it was crispy like a tostada but was absolutely delicious. The only thing i ... didnt love was the tamal which was a bit watery in texture. I would still return and buy again without a doubt. For dessert i treated myself to the cheesecake chimichanga which is a decadent indulgence well worth the bazillion calories! Highly recommended.

We’ve been there twice now and boy do they not disappoint! Fantastic food and amazing service! We had an amazing server named Evelyn. Evelyn and her coworkers were very attentive and friendly! Shout out to them all. Everything was delicious, the yummy margaritas, apps, main courses and dessert. Everything seems ... homemade will love and everything was so fresh. Prices are very reasonable. It’s so busy though so call ahead for reservations! Trust me, you won’t be disappointed. It’s wonderful to not dine at a chain and support small businesses! Thanks The Guanaquita! We’ll be back!

I got a mango margarita which was refreshing and not too strong. To eat I got a combination platter, and the pastelillo was my favourite though the chicken pupusa was a really close second. Ended the meal with fried plantain and ice cream, chef's kiss.

Absolutely delightful experience, the food was incredible and the service was great. I’m still thinking about all of those delicious eats. I ordered the combination platter with a steak, bean and cheese pupusa, ground beef and cheese pastelito, sweet corn lightly fried tamale, and a pork Salvadorian enchilada. My sister ordered ... the guanaquita platter. We were both blown away, I kept trying to consider what my favourite item was and what I’d order next time, and I could not pick. All of them were incredible and I’ll probably always order the platter so I can get some of everything on subsequent visits, which 100% will be frequent. Everything was packed with flavour, fresh, and boy was I full at the end of it. But I couldn’t help myself, I had to try one of their homemade desserts. We indulged in the tres leches cake and the fried plantains with chocolate sauce. Cannot recommend this restaurant enough, you will not be disappointed. Read more
