    The food was very tasty. We had cheesy chicken quesadillas and tortilla chips and dips to start. Followed by some amazing tacos, beef, pork and chicken. All three were excellent. I’d recommend the mezcal negroni too. We’ll be coming back here. Great!

    A refreshing cocktail with a golden-yellow and orange blend, garnished with a slice of passion fruit and a sprig of mint, featuring a salted rim for added texture.
    Rolled tortillas filled with melted cheese and seasoned meat, lightly toasted and served with a smooth green sauce.

    The food is amazing, but the service is not great sometimes because they forget to bring the drinks usually. Once they bring the food and drinks, everything is perfect. The person who welcomed us didn’t seee very happy about us booking through The Fork. The owner that works in the kitchen is amazing!

    The host, covered in tattoos, was such a great vibe, her frozen margaritas are too good! Really nice to speak to, making us feel very welcome. Tacos are amazing, the tuna tostadas were my fave. Decor is warming and a nice tribute to Mexico. Thanks for having us, we shall return!

    The food was amazing but the service wasn’t great, maybe it’s because it was busier than normal, they forgot our drinks and sauces, but they brought them in the end and gave them to us for free as a goodwill gesture. They also forgot to log me in the Fork system so I showed in the Fork as if I didn’t show up and forgot to cancel, which wasn’t the case.

    The guacamole was too salty. We ordered two drinks, but they missed our order, which kept us waiting for so long. However, we appreciate the manager apologizing and offering us a free orange juice after we finished our meal.

    Food was nice, but will not be memorable. We primarily had the tacos and they all felt authentic but therefore missing some wow factor to them. Portions were good though so decent stop to get some authentic tacos.

    Two tacos filled with tender shredded beef, topped with spicy orange salsa, fresh cilantro, and chopped onions, accompanied by a lime wedge.

    Food was delicious. Music was quite loud which impacted discussion, did try to have it turned down but no success. Service was slow, ordered 3 of the same drink and 2 arrived immediately but it took 20 minutes, asking twice and turning away the wrong drink once before the 3rd showed up. Staff were lovely when around

    Very attentive staff and amazing flavoursome Mexican food with significant amount of vegetarian options. We tried the veggie quesadillas, both enchiladas and some tacos. The Napales and Baja fish tacos were delicious. A perfect new favourite in the heart of Camden.

    7/10

    The food was good. Definite 8/10. However the starter arrived with the main - which was annoying. Service ok - brusque and overly swift - we were in and out in 40 minutes. The music was so loud you couldn’t hear the person opposite you when trying to have a conversation. Good restaurant which needs some tweaks to be great.

    The place was cold, we had a selection of tacos, they were ok, edible but nothing special. Prices were super high considering quality/quantity of food and no heating. Thankfully we looked at the drinks menu before ordering, here the tequila shots 25ml start from £7 and go all the way to £25!! Tourist trap tequila?

    Enchiladas filled with shredded chicken, topped with rich mole sauce and creamy sour cream, served with fluffy yellow rice, crumbled cheese, and garnished with microgreens and red onion.
    Crispy golden tortilla chips served with three dipping sauces: a creamy white dip, a rich brown salsa, and a smooth light sauce, ideal for sharing.

    The service was bad. And we paid 19£ for that. The food was nice

    Good food and good portions but service as average and they didn’t immediately apply therefore discount and staff didn’t communicate with each other so mixed messages

  • Tahra P.6 reviews

    6.5/10

    The food was excellent, full of flavour, vibrant colourfully presented. I had the steak which was juicy and tasty and my friends were really happy with their prawn and chicken dishes. Unfortunately the chocolate cake was probably the worst desert I've ever had. But the waitress was even worse. She was rude, constantly moaning under her breath and giving off a v nasty vibe towards us. She was the one tattooed all over her body. So because of her we won't be returning even though the food was excellent.
