El Quinto Sol — Restaurant in Laredo

Great spot for vegetarians/vegans. Most of the menu is vegetarian but they have a few vegan options, however there are some vegetarian options that can be turned to vegan. Tacos al Pastor (which I highly recommend, probably my favorite option in the menu), they contain cheese but you can ask it to be removed in order to make it vegan. Another vegan option worth to try is the Guisado plate, I asked for seitan carnitas which are extremely good, and it comes with two sides (I went for the nopales and chile ancho + brown rice). For a delicious vegetarian breakfast, the fifth sun plate is a great option, it comes with two eggs, two vegan bacon pieces and two vegan sausages, plus a couple of healthy and delicious pancakes. If you like healthy smoothies, I highly recommend the Licuado Vegetal, since contains a lot of vitamins, fiber and it's delicious, we ordered also the Licuado Fuerte which is very good as well. Service is great and pricess are accesible, although I'd recommend to go for the high protein options for it to worth it because otherwise I'd consider it a little expensive if you just go for...

Service: I do think they need to get better in their customer service. I had a bad experience With one of the staff that was in the front. I came in with my sister in the morning to order to go. I stood in front of the register for almost 5min. I was just waiting until she acknowledge us and when another customer came in. She went straight with her and took her order.

When I ask her if there was another staff to take my order she said no so I mention we were here first.. she just apologize and continue to acknowledge the other customer.

Quality: the food is good if you want to eat healthy. I like their tacos because their not greasy. The place take time to assure the food taste well.

Facility: the staff maintains the restaurant clean. The table are clean and restroom too.

Even though, they facility is clean and food is good. This review is as Sincere the restaurant is not bad but i am about hospitality; therefore, I won’t be going there because I’m a really patience person but when you provide awfully customer service I don’t care how great your food is.. I...

This is a local gem of a restaurant here in Laredo, there are not many vegan or vegetarian places here so I was happy to find them when I come to visit. Their menu has something for everyone and everything is tasty and meat free. In 2020 I would love to see more of my people go meatless, for your health and for the planet. In 2010 I went vegan because I was obese and sickly, I was 24 at the time and had so much stomach problems the doctors only solution was to remove my intestines?! I declined the surgery and took my health into my own hands and I have not only lost the weight but I have healed my stomach and intestinal issues. I lost my diabetes, my high blood pressure, high cholesterol, arthritis, etc. The moral of this comment is, there are other options out there besides poisoning your body with meats three times a day! This is my go-to and you should consider it one of yours as well. At the very least, for...
