Best Contemporary Mexican Restaurants in Clerkenwell

Really lovely long lunch with friends. Service was brilliant, quiet so we could talk easily and food and drinks were exceptional

A visit to London wouldn't be complete without a stop off at Wahaca! The team there always make you feel so welcome and the tastes… well, they never disappoint. We all just love taking time over our favourites and whatever new dishes the menu features. There's no doubt that the next time we are in London, Wahaca Shoreditch will be host to another lovely evening out. Thanks to all…

As always, excellent food at great value. Staff and service attentive. Music a bit loud though? I've never noticed it before in a branch.

Another return visit to Zapote in Shoreditch for lunch. This restaurant serves up some of the very best Mexican food in London. Authentic and innovative, it’s not your usual tacos and burritos. This sits at the fine dining end of the spectrum. Every dish is well spiced and full of flavour, with great presentation. Service is always friendly and knowledgeable. My only surprise is that the restaurant is so quiet at lunchtimes. It deserves to be busier. This is a fantastic experience and one of our favourites. We will be back again, no doubt.

We went for the Los Felix residency and enjoyed: - lobster esquites -> excellent and innovative dish - rib eye -> also excellent and good value given the size of the cut - corn dumplings -> a delicious dish and something I've not tried before - pork cheek carnitas -> decent dish, but nothing special or different to other similar taco style dishes available elsewhere Overall a great experience in the surroundings of The Ned, with the live band on Saturday evening setting a lovely backdrop.
