Hubby had Tacos Al Pastor and I had Rajas Con Queso. Yum, yum, yum! Our waitress was Christiana, and she was quick, efficient, and funny. We split churros and ice cream, and that was fabulous! We love this place! read more

OMG, I have never had Mexican like this. The flavors were amazing. The experience incredible. The owners are awesome. I highly recommend eating at Quixote!! And, to finish it off with the lava cake and churros to die for. read more

Probably one of the best meals my boyfriend and I have shared together. Delicious authentic mexican cuisine- fantastic mole & poblano spaghetti. We got the mancha mantel & suiza, high key recommend. read more

Excellent service from the knowledgeable and warm staff. The dishes were amazing: from the eclectic sauces and flavors, to the fusion of delicacies and ingredients- it's a great spot to open your pallet. Excellent for a late lunch- looks even better for a date. Not a standard Mexican spot. Be prepared for enjoyment. read more

This is my first visit here and it won't be my last. The guacamole The guacamole was beyond fresh and the entrees were excellent. This is probably the first time I've had real Mexican food (You know those folks who say they've lived in Houston or San Diego and "know real Mexican food?" Yeah, I'm not one of them.) and everything was outstanding. They're moving to downtown Brevard in a couple of weeks and they'll have a full bar to go with their amazing food, so I hope you'll visit this family-owned restaurant. - You won't find better in the area. read more

Love their food. We live in Brevard and stop to get takeout often. We all love getting their soup and bean burritos. Great margaritas when we eat in. read more

Interesting looking place as you drive up the steep hill. Log cabin exterior and entering it was decorated for Christmas in a fun way. Was a pleasant surprise. We ordered the chips and salsa to start, unlike other run of the mill Mexican restaurants, they do not offer them free of charge. They provided a typical salsa and a Verde salsa. Both were made fresh and tasted as such. The tomato salsa had large chunks of onion in it that did over power our taste buds and left us with an onion taste for the rest of the day. I ordered the cheese and bean enchilada. Two smallish enchiladas were delivered with white rice and a vegetable medley of some sort. Problem with enchilada is the sauce was not on it, it was served on the side. Kinda of strange. After putting enchilada sauce on it, it really had no flavor other than tomato. It wasn't what I was hoping for. The rice was also plane, no flavor or thought. The vegetable medley is the best I can describe it, it had potential, but missed the mark. It also had no flavor, just mushy squash, corn and onions. Refried beans inside of my enchilada seemed like they were homemade, but all combined it was not good. My husband ordered a shrimp dish that was spicy, flavor was ok. No tortillas given with the dish which typically is needed. Half of his shrimp was with tail and the other half had them. Again, strange. He said it was OK, nothing to get excited about. I feel like they have something good, just need to work on flavoring and execution. Asheville prices without being downtown Asheville. read more

Favorite restaurant in brevard , staff is very very friendly, very knowledgeable and the food is absolutely top notch, it's more on the very southern style Mexican cuisine read more

Found this place on Yelp, confirmed its quality with a local. Arrived late afternoon on a Saturday. We were the only ones there. Interesting decor (appropriately themed) and good service. No complimentary salsa. The menu offers atypical Mexican dishes. A little pricey all around. Our meals ( orange shrimp and bean enchiladas) were ok--not great. While the shrimp were nicely seasoned, the enchiladas were small, bland, and drizzled with an unremarkable tomato sauce. The mixed veggie side was mushy and under seasoned. Our chips/salsa appetizer came with tomato and verde salsa. Both had far too much onion. On the whole, we were a bit disappointed. While not terrible, I don't think we'd recommend it. read more

This was our first visit to Quixote, but will not be the last. We began with the appetizer sampler of queso, guacamole and a creamy cucumber dip. Two members of our party enjoyed the rib eye steak with rajas. I ordered the Tamarindera-chicken cooked with bacon and tamarind sauce. All of our food was delicious. We had the house made margaritas along with our meal and they were quite good. A special treat of the evening was a complimentary sample of the broccoli soup. It was the best we had ever tasted. Will be back again to try all of their other soups! Taylor, our waiter, was attentive and very helpful in placing our order. The owner, Victor was warm and welcoming and seems to set a family like atmosphere for the entire restaurant. We loved the food and plan to return to sample other menu items. read more

An absolutely spectacular meal and experience. Kind, knowledgable staff and incredible food. If I could rate it better than 5/5 I would give it. read more

Not your local Tex-Mex. The menu is innovative, fresh and tasty. The service was superb and the prices were moderate. I'll be coming back to sample the other items on the menu that looked good. The wine list is very affordable. Try the mole or the beef stew ... really hit the spot. A bowl of their house soup is worth the visit. One of Brevard's best places to eat. read more

Pleasant surprise in Brevard. Fresh, unusual and tasty Mexican fare. Great customer service. Great chunky guacamole with pieces of avocado. read more

See all

What a great surprise in downtown Brevard. We were looking for a bite of Mexican, but we got much more. Everything we had was excellent from the Mole, tortilla soup, a stuffed pepper dish with a wonderful sauce to the dessert churros and chocolate cake. The staff was friendly and attentive and described the dishes well, answering all of our questions. This is not a typical Mexican restaurant, but if you are looking for delicious choices, this is the place. read more

I'm not usually a complainer. I own a business, I understand how things can go. We waited for almost an hour in a near empty dining room for substandard fajitas. Worst of all, we were running late for a show, we had to take it to go and we hadn't seen our waitress and 30 minutes. She never checked on us. When we expressed urgency she said let me check, and then "it'll be a few minutes". Once our to-go order was packed, she was unapologetic. This message is for the manager. Just so you know. But I have to say the guacamole was excellent. read more

Wow. As we walked into this beautiful setting, we were greeted with warmth and laughter by Diego, who seated us at a window table to enjoy downtown Brevard. Every dish we ordered was perfectly cooked. We enjoyed pork carnitas tacos, pollo con manzanas (chicken with a creamy pecan sauce and apples) and Momias, a delicate pasta dish with a creamy mango salsa topped with bacon-wrapped shrimp. Ending the evening with the scrumptious flan made for one of the best meals I have ever had. Quixote is this local's favorite place to eat in Brevard! read more

This place lives up to the high reviews! The service was excellent. Everyone was polite to my children. The food was delicious. My husband, young children and I have had our share of Mexican food. This was by far the best! The quality was fresh. The flavors were nicely blended. The margaritas were tasty! Thank you Yelp users for reviewing this restaurant. We almost went to a Subway. We are so thankful we experienced Quixote! read more

Excellent service, quick food delivery. Food was great and atmosphere was fun and exciting. Owner and manager both checked in to ensure we were having a pleasant meal. read more

My wife and I dined at Quixote on August 15; we were greeted by an indifferent host and served by a waitress that was inattentive with minimal interaction skill. While the restaurant has a nice location and upscale feel, the food quality did not match said atmosphere. Quixote is overpriced for what you get, and Brevard has better alternatives. read more

Five-stars all around! The seating areas (inside and out) are beautiful and comfortable, the service was attentive and friendly, and the food was simply top notch! The chips and salsa are not free, but definitely worth ordering-even the kids like the salsa verde (mild), the salsa roja (medium) was packed with flavor, and the guacamole was fresh and they clearly used ripe avocados-not too tough or creamy. I got the chicken in mole sauce per the reviews, and it did not disappoint! It had a deep, smoky-ish flavor, and with the rice (cooked perfectly-light & fluffy) and salsa in a corn tortilla, it was amazing! Would certainly come back! read more

Our family of 5 waited for over an hour to be seated, which would have been okay if they had been honest and/or made even the slightest attempt to be fair. We were repeatedly told by staff that we were next to be seated, but people who had not been waiting were given preference on multiple occasions. They had slightly smaller parties, so we were understanding the first few times it happened. The final straw occurred when we were told that a specific table would be ours whenever the current patrons left. We waited patiently through their entire meal- from when they were seated to when the table was cleared. However, staff instead gave it away to an online reservation and told us that the online reservation took precedent. They strung us along and screwed us over in the end without even an apology. Very poor customer service. Wish I could give a review of the food, but we never even got close to being able to eat. read more

The food never disappoints. Have eaten there several times and gotten take out. Both were great. Love the mole! Definitely recommend a reservation on the weekend. read more

Amazing!!! The food was way more traditional Mexican than the others, which made it perfect!

Our favorite restaurant in Brevard! This is authentic, made-from-scratch, home-style Mexican food. The closest I've ever come to the type of food I ate while living in Mexico decades ago. Our favorite appetizer is the guacamole and chips (warm and tasty). I love, love, love the pollo con manzana (chicken with apple) in a creamy nut and apple sauce. The chicken is super tender and moist and the sauce is heaven on a plate. The sopas (corn cakes) are piled high with either chicken, pork, or chorizo and dusted with crumbly queso. The bean and cheese burritos are simply divine. The pinto beans have that creamy, authentic Mexican flavor that I've not tasted outside Mexico. Not sure how they cook them, but I'd love the have the recipe! The daily specials are always tasty. The soups....yum-o! They also are freshly made and have that layered flavor. I especially like the carrot soup. The flan is a perfect end to the meal. Their mixed drinks are good and they have a decent wine list. I'm not much of a wine connoisseur but enjoyed tremendously a really smooth and flavorful wine called New Age white from Argentina (or something like that). The service is always terrific. The owner walks around, talks with diners, and makes sure you are satisfied. read more

Great place! Was in town to ride and one of the guys in our group recommended Quixote. Glad he did...Great food, very inviting feel, great service, and decent prices. I'll be back for sure. Oh, and the cucumber dip is mighty good. Cheers, -A read more

I just finished a wonderful meal at Quixote in Brevard, NC. I had the Lomo en Salsa de Champinones (Lunch Portion). It was preceded by a cup of the soup of the day. Both the soup and the entree were delicious. The meal was accompanied by a nice Chilean Cabernet that was very good. As I ate my meal, I wondered why I don't dine at Quixote more. I have always had very fine food there. I decided that, at 77, it must be "out of sight; out of mind." Quixote serves fine Mexican dishes. It is not a Tex-Mex in and out restaurant. The food is very well prepared and very pleasant on the palate. I have decided that I shall try to remember to eat at least one meal per week at Quixote. read more

Best fish tacos ever!!! Absolutely delicious. Their menu has many excellent choices for everyone. Also very friendly staff. They are considerate and very helpful. Clean and nice surroundings, outdoor options for dining. Recommend highly! read more

Very friendly staff. This isn't your typical Mexican restaurant. The menu has a bit of a twist and for those of you that enjoy a good mole, this one top notch. A bit on the sweeter side so for me the portion was perfect. Chips and salsa are not free. read more

High end grub for not so high end prices. Fantastic service and great vibe. Go when in the area!!

This place was very cool. Different items on the menu most of our party had never heard of. We had 10 people and they all talk about going back to NC just to eat here. Great staff also. Drinks were good. 2nd round not as good as the first round. read more

Loved the old place, but they really hit a grand slam with the new location. It is very relaxing and the perfect place to have some really wonderful food. It is Mexican, but not Americanized TexMex fare. Fresh ingredients and ample portions are the standard. The staff reflect the management's dedication to making your dining experience a marvelous one. Try them once and you will become a regular like my wife and I. read more

good place need more food items though,steak was really good along with the fries.servers were nice too

Most authentic Latin cuisine in the area. A bit pricey compared your normal "Mexican" restaurant but the quality of the food is worth it. I will say that their beer selection is severely lacking. read more

Probably the best authentic Mexican food I've ever had. The owner was super kind and even prepared us a special that was no longer on the menu. The guacamole is absolutely amazing and the shrimp is to die for. If you are in Brevard...go! read more

Visiting from Texas and I was impressed by the fresh salsa and molle sauce. Great service, good prices, and fresh delicious food. Best Mexican in quite a ways I'm sure! read more

It's not often you go to a place where you go, "wow, that was good," but this place had all of us saying "wow, that was good. Very obviously all fresh ingredients and authentic food. I will definitely be coming back here again read more

Dumbed down Mexican (?) fare for Americans. No chips n salsa for appetizers, boughten chips and beans instead. Food was ok, just not very seasoned like authentic Mexican should be. Service was adequate and we were well taken care of. read more

Love the outdoor patio and the fresh drinks. Downtown central and helpful waitstaff. Family recipes from Victor and you will not be disappointed. Charming and romantic setting, good music. Not your typical mex place. read more

I stopped for dinner on a Sunday evening after a great weekend mountain biking with Pilot Cove and Seth's Bike Hacks. I ordered Tacos al Pastor and the carrot soup. I highly recommend both. The 4 tacos were excellent and amply filled with meat. I did ask for limes to squeeze onto the pork. The carrot soup was also delicious. The interior is very pretty wirh large windows facing Broad St. read more

Wow. This place was great. Excellent service and outstanding food. I had the beef stuffed poblano with almond cream sauce. It wasn't like any thing I've ever had before and it was so delicious. Everything on the menu looked unique and appealing. I'm ready to go back and try the mole' and the flan. read more
