7/10Service and atmosphere was fantastic! Cocktails were also lovely, great selection of Margaritas. But food was very disappointing. Tacos lacked a lot of flavour, they were very average. The birria was nice but no dipping sauce was given. Overall, drinks were great but food not so much

4/10Over the years we have visited Cafe Pacifico many times. In fact it was regarded as one of our favourite London restaurants. So you can imagine how disappointed we felt seeing how much it had deteriorated. The outside looked dingy and uncared for and the margaritas were just terrible. They’re not made the same way any more, through smooth ice and very tasty in a large jug for a group or in a salted individual glass. In fact ours was £36 for a tall narrow reused tequila bottle but we doubted there was any tequila in it! The rice served with the children’s fajitas was dry and obviously reheated but the adults sides of refried beans were nothing like the past but rather nasty tasting hard purple tiny bullet beans. The chicken in the fajitas was tasty but the beef fajitas tough. The price for the meal was high and in no way reflected the quality of the meal. When visiting in previous years the atmosphere was warm and lively, sadly we won’t be returning.

7.5/10Second time I’ve been and the food was good but this time the service was a bit slow - felt like we were a bit forgotten about over in the corner…

7/10We have always loved this place since introduced some 30yrs ago. The ambience felt 'Mexican', having spent many a visit to Houston etc, the Variety of food was equally impressive and a much wider choice too. Visited today with relative over from Houston and neither were up to level we expected. Seems to be more 'commercial' than before with fewer choices on the menu and staff who didn't know what their limited offerings were. Alas, not up to expected levels. The food we did have was still exceptional and probably still best Mexican around.

9/10The food and service were excellent. 2 bottles of water provided without asking. Both our meals were very nice but not that hot. Using the yums to pay it was fantastic value for money. Great atmosphere in the busy restaurant

8/10The food never disapoints. Its a very loud restaurant so if you want peace an quiet it's not the place for you. The staff is very helpful but because of its busyness we had to ask several times to get our drink correct. I will def be back tho.

7.5/10Tried the plate of five tacos - the pork, chicken and beef were good but the fish (the only one I had two of) was disappointingly dry. Churros were good though it would be nice if the chocolate was thicker. Service was a bit uneven - tacos came quickly but there was a long wait for dessert.
