Atmosphere here is fantastic. Food was so delicious as well. Very quick service. There was small egg shell left on my poached eggs, gave 4 stars for that reason.
When I first entered, I was immediately drawn to the lively Latin American music, the portraits of Frida Kahlo, the traditional sombreros displayed on the walls, and the decorative floor tiles. Although it was a very hot summer day, the staff thoughtfully provided a bottle of tap water, along with a glass containing ice and a slice of lemon. I ordered the chicken skewers, a fajita-style dish consisting of grilled chicken served with rice, salad, salsa, and sour cream. The chicken was lightly seasoned and a little dry, but the fresh, chunky salsa made it much more enjoyable. The sour cream provided a pleasant contrast, helping to balance the heat. The minor criticism was that the portion of rice felt a little small. I eventually ordered some tortilla chips as well, and was pleased to find them crispy and flavourful.
The staff were very friendly, and the prices were reasonable. The beef and chicken tacos were both delicious, and the fajitas were also really tasty. I visited for a friend’s birthday, and they kindly arranged seating for our group and even celebrated with a cake. Highly recommended.
Loved it here. Friendly and quick service. Nice vibes. Ate here for the first time yesterday morning, and we were straight back the following morning for breakfast again. Eggs cooked to perfection 👌. We haven't time for lunch/dinner this trip, but we will make sure to in the future. Will definitely be back next time we visit Camden.
Went here for a date night and enjoyed the food very much , my boyfriend had the chilli con carne which come with the rice and nachos , and I chose to to have the tacos which were so delicious and tasty we both enjoyed our meals very much, I saw a cocktail being delivered to a table close by and I just had to try it I belive its an alcoholic milkshake kind of thing couldn't remember the name but WOW it was like being on holiday with this drink ! The service was very fast the quickest service ever ! The only thing that lets the place down is limited seating and not keen on the little tin chairs for sitting for long periods but goes well with Aesthetics , fairly priced also
