Set on London’s most vibrant square, Leicester Square Kitchen introduces a Mexican and Peruvian dining experience serving small plates and innovative cocktails. From exquisite tacos to fine skewered meats from the Peruvian barbecue, the menu takes diners on a journey through the unique flavours of South America.

    We walked in at 8 pm and were the only table which isn’t a good sign. Lots of workers but not a ton of service. We were seated. Menu doesn’t have a ton of main dishes more appetizer based menu. I asked if main dish tacos could be served on soft shell since they had them on appetizer menu and the waiter said no— I had to say please ask chef which then it was done for me… we ordered drinks and food came out very quick. But then that was it no one came back to ask us for refills or how food was and we never received our side corn until we were done with everything else… our waiter sat and spoke to the table next to us for over an hour about a job opportunity— never once even looking over at us. It was fairly ridiculous. We had to walk up to bar and ask for our check

    Unimpressed with incredibly slow service. Although staff were nice and kind, it took unacceptably long to get food and drinks…

    We had a wonderful experience sitting outside at Leicester square kitchen. Astle was quick and professional seating and serving and knew the menu very well. We ordered the beef skewers and avocado salad which were both insanely delicious and full of flavour. A very good deal for a very good meal as well. We will be visiting again to try the lamb cutlets soon.

    Overall the food was very delicious, fresh, well prepared and the price was reasonable. The service was even better. Myself and a group of friends were well taking care of throughout the evening and the ambience was very satisfying. I would definitely recommend anybody that wants to grab a bite.
