Club Mexicana in City of London, Westminster

Disappointing Experience – Not Worth the £17 I had a frustrating experience here during my lunch break, and it’ll definitely be my first and last visit. I ordered a chicken burrito, expecting a warm, satisfying meal, but what I received was closer to a cold, flavorless lettuce wrap. I even paid extra for guacamole and beans, yet no beans to be found —and isn’t it standard for a burrito to include beans? The menu didn’t mention lettuce, yet it was overwhelmingly full of it, making it feel more like a salad wrap than a burrito. Service only added to the disappointment. I waited longer than several newer tables around me, even though I was just getting a quick takeaway. I was directed to pay outside, which felt odd. Then, when I accidentally sat at a table in the neighboring restaurant, a staff member suggested I find a park bench instead, making it clear they didn’t want me sitting there. To top it all off, I paid £17 for this “burrito” that arrived lukewarm, with no carry bag, making it awkward to carry it. Overall, it felt like a total waste of money. Avoid!

Can't fault the food. I think it was inventive and interesting. The service let it down a bit. My sister found a load of chewing gum on her seat too late and it totally ruined her jeans. Not the team's fault it happened, but no one seemed that bothered. They basically said that it was half-term and kids were off (not helpful) and do their checks on Monday (again, not helpful). I wouldn't be shocked if it happened again before the end of the night as the seat wasn't moved. It's a shame really because as I say, the food was good, but put a bit of a dampener on the evening.

very tasty food and great attention to allergies!

Love a good fully vegan spot! Tried the fried chick'n tacos and a cheezeburger taco. The food was amazing! Definitely worth the walk here! The staff were really amazing and it's part of a big food court area where you can try many different restaurants! Great food, great ambiance. 100% recommend trying

We went for tacos on Tuesday night. After a back and forth situation with the girl who is supposed to assign us a table (and nobody was paying attention to us) the rest was perfect. Good tacos, beers and nachos with cheese sauce. Atmosphere was nice and prices were accordingly to this neighborhood of London.

We were in a bit of a hurry but the staff got us served asap, and were super lovely. Food was awesome, really flavorful.

Delicious food, great service, and all vegan! Would totally recommend

Delicious food, diverse, fun and all vegan. The design is colorful and happy, lovely staff, and affordable prices.

Midday lunch in Soho can't get much better bear and burrito 🌯 yum. Tasty fast service and great presentation. Thanks.

Had loaded nachos, they were delicious. The service and venue were also 10/10.

Good atmosphere, super friendly employees, delicious food

Perfect level of welcome and taste as well 🤩

Cool place! The vegan tacos in particular were great. I just wished there was more choice for dessert. We will definitely come back on our next visit to London 😊

The restaurant is healthy and vegetarian The options are good And the taste was nothing short of amazing The service is very excellent It is worth trying Delicious food, great service. Highly recommended

Fantastic vegan Mexican food! If you haven't been before, then I urge you to go asap. I can't offer a suggestion for what to eat because frankly it's all amazing. The fish tacos were realistic, the burritos are prepared to perfection.

As a long time vegan I can recommend this amazing place as probably the best vegan food I ever had; would visit London again just to go here. Also fabulous service from a lovely lady with a Winnie the Pooh shirt :)

Best Tacos since ever! Funny Staff and fast serving! If we would live around the corner we‘d be happy to spend our money here! Greetings from Germany!

WOW! We had an amazing evening with excellent food and the best service ever thanks to Eve and Liv! You should definitely try the empanadas, they were my favorite. And once again shoutout to our servers. They really made our evening and my boyfriend's birthday perfect. We felt so taken care of! Thank you!

PATHETIC SERVICE and sub standard QUALITY of food just keeps going down the drain! Painful when one of your fav mexican restaurants does this after 2-3 yrs of great food and great service. Recently we took our guests to this place when the ribbed tacos (which we called for 12 pieces) were under cooked making it so difficult for us to chew the jackfruit, when informed the staff they said "oh it's the new chef - thanks for the feedback" and gave us some stupid 5 coupons for complimentary tacos for the next time - INSTEAD of removing that item from the bill or getting freshly made ones!! And to top this off the APPALLING service - the staff starts standing on your head (inhospitable young waitresses) for the last order and drinks and then comes to you while your eating asking you to pay as if you will runaway while you're still eating - IT WAS SO ANNOYING - if the management reads this review and has any courtesy please refund my money, fire your staff / train them to match their service standards for the standards your restaurant has build over the last few yrs!

I didn't realise the place was vegan until we sat down. We had 3 different tacos which were really tasty and the margaritas were great too!

I tried the most wonderful vegan Burrito 🌯🌱👌🏻

Really enjoyable! The food was great and the service was excellent. Fully vegan! The short rib was a favourite.

My friend (non-vegetarian) recommended this place so I brought my parents (both vegetarian) there for lunch , it was the best meal we had in London. We had the tortilla with guacamole to start ,then BBQ ribs , fish and chicken tacos for main course . The best one is BBQ ribs followed by fish then chicken.

loved the fully loaded nachos 💘💘

The restaurant is located in a beautiful and pleasant gallery, has indoor and outdoor tables (food court type). I really liked the service! I ordered two tacos: BBQ Short Rib Taco (excellent) and Chick'n Taco (I didn't really like the texture and flavor of the chicken). To accompany, white wine. Dessert, churros with chocolate sauce. It was delicious, but it could have been fried for longer and added more sugar and cinnamon, as the chocolate was bitter, so there was little sweetness for a dessert (and I don't like very sugary sweets). As for the price, I thought it was ok.

Went in on a Tuesday evening; being from elsewhere, I'm not used to places being so busy on a Tuesday but I was quickly seated at the bar as it was just me. Service was timely and attentive, and the servers were all lively, friendly and welcoming. It was nice to see them all interacting and getting on well together! I ordered tortillas, salsa Verde, and the bbq rib burrito. It was all prepared freshly and quickly. The food is so flavourful and delicious, I couldn't fault it at all. I would definitely recommend it and will definitely be back!

Not 5 stars are some obvious extras- like beans in the burrito are extra paid

Not clear it is a vegan place. Food tasted off. Menu shows fish and chicken tacos. Not clear that it wasn't real fish or chicken. It was only apparent on one of the taco choices. Staff not very inclusive minded or tolerant towards clientele of different lifestyles. Terrible experience.

Awesome menu, really fresh ingredients and amazing flavour. I have never had a burrito (or con queso!) like that in my life, vegan or non-vegan. I especially loved the bbq burrito and my partner thought the fish tacos were unbelievable. The whole team were super friendly and smiley, but a big shout out to Brogan for going above and beyond to help with tailoring the menu for allergies, being so kind and making our experience so great.

This place is popular, so we did not mind the waiting and am so happy we did wait! Fully loaded nachos are just dangerously good! I mean addictively good. We went back to get more :D What magic makes vegan cheese so gooey?!?! "Fish" and "cheeseburger" tacos are out of this world good, and the sauce that came with empanadas was delicious. Only downside is that it is pricy, and I am mad that I did not notice that there were churros on the menu (could you ship to Iceland? 😂 ) I will definitely visit again when in London.

Delicious vegan food. Very expensive though.

Great tasting food, we got 3 different tacos and all were top notch! Cool vibe sitting and eating outside

The nachos are very delicious, they are not super heavy and the flavor is authentic. I ordered a burrito in a bowl and the meat is spectacular. It comes accompanied by rice and salad. On the rice, a mild green sauce and on the side an aioli sauce. The quantity of everything is large. The service is attentive and very friendly.

Absolutely amazing! Must visit for vegans.

Really love this place, so many vegan options and nice drinks (recommend the michelada). Food does often come out cold though and we've had to send it back on more than one occasion. The food is so good it deserves the 5 star rating all the same

Tasty food. Many options. Highly recommend.

‏The atmosphere of the place is awesome, and the food is both delicious and fresh. The tacos are amazing and unique. The staff are nice, though they seemed a bit busy and stressed with serving customers. Overall, I highly recommend it, especially for those who love vegan food.

The dishes were delicious but it would be good if they reduced the use of coriander. Coriander overpowers everything else because of its strong flavor.

Had an incredible time! Fantastic service by Brogan and Emma, nachos were next to none. Will definitely be back when in London!

Brogan and Emma were the dynamic duo who made our evening! After "Joe O" stole our seats, Brogan swooped in to our rescue and was a fab host and made us chuckle after the slight hick up. 🦸‍♀️ Emma made fab recommendations! 🔥 The BBQ Short Rib Burrito was fire and, appreciate her coming to my rescue after my partner accused me for being a liar when claiming I wanted a non-alc Chelada. 😭 We will for sure be back!

Very good and varied tacos, 100% vegan I particularly liked the one with the fake fish. Prices are correct The place is noisy (in the heart of kingly court) but pretty The service is long in busy times

The nachos and tacos were so delicious! The staff was super kind and welcoming! Loved the atmosphere!

Really good food. I wish the vegan "chicken" was more juicy and the tacos were warmed up, that's all.

Really good food in a cute area. Highly recommend whether you're vegan or not.

The service is very slow. Unfortunately, the food is not delicious and of poor quality The chicken was not fresh. It was also cold during serving

My go to when I haven’t booked a restaurant in Soho. Consistently delicious tacos, lovely service always. Personal favourites are the short ‘rib’ tacos and fried chickn

If you have kids, don’t bother going to this restaurant. I had a horrible experience yesterday. We were so happy to find a nice vegan place and managed to sit in busy Kingly Court. My 5 year old was having a small box of kid’s pizza from next door shop. Just when she took a bite, we have been told that this is the last slice she will be eating, she can’t eat that food and has to put the box away. I was simply told that my child has to wait hungry and I should “enjoy” the food they brought. Although the restaurant doesn’t have a kids menu or offer anything that kids may enjoy, they don’t allow kids to eat 4 slices of pizza bought from kingly court. The way we were told about this made me very disappointed and I had to leave the restaurant with my child without eating the mains. I have never seen such a rude attitude before. It completely ruined a very much awaited Friday family night out. ————— Update: The management contacted me and handled the case professionally.

I had an amazing time at Club Mexicana SoHo! The food was absolutely delicious, with bold flavors 100% plant-based. The atmosphere was lively and vibrant, adding to the overall great experience. I highly recommend it if you’re looking for top-notch vegan options.

It's so sad 😓. We used to love Club Mex, and went at least twice a month. Now it feels a bit like flying ryanair - getting nickle and dimed for every little thing that should already be included. Beans in a £12.50 burrito? An additional £2. Guacamole, too? That'll be another £2.50. It's tasty food, but paying £19.50 (!!!) after tip for a fast-food burrito just feels impossible to stomach. I know times are hard for restaurants, but it's pushed it from "go regularly" to "go never" for us and all our friends.

The worst thing you can fight, may God honor the blessing The food is so bad I can't swallow it Tacos of all kinds are bad I was excited to try the restaurant, but unfortunately the experience was bad The workers are very friendly and very helpful The restaurant is located in a beautiful courtyard and has indoor and outdoor seating The restaurant is noisy

Read from a Vegan blog about this vegan tacos to try out. Hunt it down and it was crowded on a rainy day. Got a counter seat for the 3 of us with lots of bags, wasn't very comfortable but it was alright for a quick bite. Food was appetising, nothing wow but was happy we get to even have Vegan Tacos. Just don't expect it to taste like meat or real cheese.

Amazing service, my friend has a sesame allergy and they were incredibly helpful. They kept checking in on her, and really really friendly. Will be coming back!

In the heart of Soho you can find this nice 100% vegan Mexican restaurant. The service is the highlight and the food a close second. I’d recommend the tacos and trying a few out. The fish taco in particular is very “lifelike”. The price is what you’d expect in central London along with the service charge. Quite pricy but worth a visit if you’re in the area

Visited twice, once for dinner and once for lunch. I'm not vegan, but I appreciate good food and the food was excellent, as were the vibes. Very friendly and welcoming staff, full marks to our waitresses as they were all fantastic, friendly, and attentive. For dinner there was about a 20 minute wait for a table but everything was well organised. Personally, I wasn't a fan of the fish tacos as the avocado overwhelmed the fish and I found the flavour to be a bit lacking, but the BBQ short rib burrito was just divine, one of the best burritos I've ever had. The churros and the nachos were also great. The cocktails were also fantastic. Will be back.

22/12/23 **Fish Taco** The fish taco was brilliant, featuring a complete balance of flavours and the perfect texture. The fish was crispy and delicious, like the ideal component of a good sandwich. However, the overall execution of the taco as a whole was slightly disappointing. **Jackfruit Taco** The jackfruit taco was sublime. It had a great texture and a BBQ taste that was crazily similar to pork. The flavours were well-balanced, but the dish could benefit from better-pickled or fresher onions to enhance its overall profile. **Service** Cristina, our server, was super accommodating and very aware of the food flavour profiles, adding to the positive dining experience. The tacos felt reheated, which was understandable but slightly impacted the freshness.

Was looking for vegan food and they did not disappoint. The jack fruit tacos and cheeseburger burrito were incredible, I'd highly recommend coming here for fresh vegan mexican food. The service was great and the atmosphere was friendly and enjoyable. Can't wait to come back!

Worst customer service ever. Rude waitress, rude manager, unprofessional, spoiled our family time and our day out in London. Avoid

Went on a Tuesday but they weren't doing the all you can eat tacos which is a shame. Food was very tasty though. Me and my friend tried the fish, chicken, cheeseburger and short rib. Fish was easy the big winner for me, actually insane. Would skip the chicken - was on the tougher side. Found the gauc to just be smashed avocado which is always sad. Would recommend the largarita which is fun and tasty. Actual marg is on the sweeter side of things just so you know

The best vegan Mexican food I've had!

I went here for lunch with my girlfriend and if I could give it six stars I would, the food was great, the staff were the best and the atmosphere was brilliant.

Cute little courtyard. Insanely good food. Slightly disorganised service. Not in an annoying way though.

One of my favourite food places in London. Great food, don't change!

Has the best burritos! They are incredibly flavourful, with a unique menu that is all vegan. Amazing experience and would totally recommend!

The restaurant is normal The most delicious thing is fried potatoes Maybe I didn't know how to choose good requests

Nachos are some of the best we've ever had! (And we've had a lot of nachos 😅) It was very busy being a nice evening in the summer but the service was super friendly. We managed to get a table after 10 minutes or so but would recommend booking if you can as it gets very busy. The food and drinks do come out very quickly though! Price wasn't bad at all for central London. Would definitely come back!

Delicious Food and Very Lovely Staff! 🤗

One of the best vegan places in London. Loved the tacos and churros.

this is one of my go to spots, the food is great value, full of flavour, and the service is always perfect. Our server last night was lovely, the bill said their name was Charlotte so hopefully that’s correct but they made us feel super welcomed, extremely friendly service and helpful too. Will always come back to this place! Thank you

Fantastic quick service. We had a great night. And bloody yummy!

Totally vegan restaurant, and really delicious. We enjoyed tacos and burritos similar to "BBQ ribs", "breaded fish", "chicken", and "cheeseburger". The dishes are extremely elaborate, full of flavors, and would reconcile anyone with vegan cuisine. The little sweet touch of churros with dark chocolate sauce for dessert was just perfect to end this meal. And Cristina's welcome and advice were more than warm. If you are "aficionados" of this type of cuisine, then go there with your eyes closed, and if you are not, go and discover this establishment, you could develop a taste for it for the rest of your life!

Brilliant service and delicious food!

After running around all day, this dining experience was a last minute decision. We showed up and there looked to be a long wait, but we, as well as the three parties in front of us, were seated almost immediately. Jannette was outgoing and kind, thought they were busy she never rushed us or made us wait. The food was fantastic! 100% vegan, including some pretty spectacular churros at the end of the meal. Highly recommend and would absolutely go back!

My favourite vegan place. If you want really good Mexican food with many options this the place to go. The food is always fresh amazing. The service is always good. The most friendly and nice staff always making me feel welcome. You need to give this place a try if you’re in Carnaby Street.

Great service from the girls, food outstanding !!

Cristina, Bailey, George, Rifa, Janet, Madeline were all amazing from start to end. The food was amazing and the service was exceptional. Would definitely recommend.

Amazing vegan Mexican restaurant in kingly court. The music was a little bit loud inside but didn't bother us too much. The service was absolutely excellent, very nice staff. I had the nachos to share and the bbq short rib burrito in a bowl with guacamole. These were large portions so I couldn't finish it all. The ribs were really well made flavours excellent.

Club Mexicana is a pure vibe. Olivia sat us down, we informed her that we needed to be quick as had a show to get to. She was onit straight away. Within 7 mins we had all food and drinks on table! Food and drinks where delightful, as was the service from Olivia. Lovely conversation and laughs about the slogan on her t shirt 'Tacos not Tories' thanks Olivia. We will be returning very soon.

I love this place - the food is always fantastic (I've taken non-vegan friends who prefer it over meat-based Mexican vibes), the atmosphere is fantastic, and more importantly the staff are absolutely incredible. A massive shout-out in particular to both Olivia and Cristina, who literally elevated the entire experience for both of us - a massive credit to both the restaurant and humanity in general.

I had the to-fish tacos and a burrito for takeaway (though I haven't tried that yet). The to-fish tacos were good, though a bit too resembling to fish for my taste. The first time I tried the food at this place around five years ago, I was very impressed, so I feel like my first impression was better. I visited around 5pm on a workday and the place was super busy, but the staff was able to find me a table. They were nice and welcoming, though the atmosphere was a bit hectic and noisy, as it was pretty busy. Service was really fast for both the eat-in and takeaway. Reasonably priced but expect an automatically added 12.5% service charge; which is fine when the service is outstanding, I would just suggest making customers aware of it beforehand. Still, I am very supportive of this place and recommend it, as it offers good and tasty vegan food.

Had the Burrito bowl which came with three pieces of chicken which were all about half a little finger in size and very dry/overcooked. Very nice atmosphere but very poor value food. Seems a bit of a trend in these food courtyard set ups in London. Waitress really only interested in American guest pumping them hard for tips.

Food was brilliant. The drinks were not. The margarita's were watered down. It was Taco Tuesday, so unlimited Tacos. Towards the end, I fancied one more taco but knew I wasn't going to eat three, so I asked for just one to save on waste. This was added to my bill! - I would have been better off just asking for a whole tray of tacos and leaving them to go to waste. I resolved this with another member of staff, but it left a sour note.

I am thrilled a vegan spot is so popular but had a very poor experience here. I put my name down on waitlist, got a text saying 45 mins wait, no problem- I waited just over an hour. The host Emma sat scores of people down instead but discriminated as I was on my own. She totally lied that the guys before me had a reservation, I heard while they were waiting that they did not. They got seats at the bar. There were plenty of tables for 2 free & bar stools free too, however she wouldn’t offer me. I initially said I dont mind sitting at bar, then she said they were also booked, but then said in another 20 mins I can get a table instead. After an hour she came back & offered me a stool in bar she could’ve offered an hour ago- I was sat right outside- it was free all along. I didn’t want to beg anymore & left. Really poor service & discrimination by the host.

An incredibly entirely vegan Mexican place. The fake meats were insanely good, and some meat eaters who came with me didn't believe it was vegan at first. The vegan fish was insanely good and the texture was very fish like. Incredibly friendly and kind staff. 10/10 would recommend.

Tasty vegan t ake on mexican, tacos are so flavoursome, jackfruit burrito so smokey. Great service, busy place.

Not bargain basement prices, but really nice food and friendly attentive service. Will come again. 👍🏻

Amazing food. The loveliest service. The prices are bit a high but I would totally visit again.

Insanely good vegan tacos and burritos! I was impressed by the BBQ Short “Rib” burrito bowl…you wouldn't be able to tell it's not made of meat. The service was very good too. My friend and I showed up on a rainy Thursday afternoon, and the waiter did her best to find us space inside. I'll be back for sure.

A must do in London. Delicious tacos and great service (even when rushed off their feet, which is a good sign of popularity). I'd recommend this place to anyone.

The food is amazing! Can’t stop thinking about the nachos and the bbq tacos. Brogan and Cristina made our experience even better. Best service I had in years if not ever!!! This place made me want to try more vegan food.

Super delicious and friendly staff!

Mr Tumbles management replies saying I took 10 minutes to write 10 reviews there is a difference between editing a review and writing a review, take ESOL lesson, English is not that difficult. Putting aside the fact that the food is insanely priced, what annoyed me was yesterday I was told they will take my number and message me in 20-40 minutes when a seat becomes available. What they neglected to tell me was in 20 minutes it wound be very close to closing time and in 40 minutes it would have been 20 minutes over their closing time so I fail to understand why they were still accepting customers when it would have passed their closing time. Their system didn't even send a sms automatically apologising and informing me that they have now closed unnecessarily keeping people's hopes up and disappointing them. Absolutely appalling service and on top of that one of their waiters was very rude. Like most East Asian, Asian and foreign restaurants, they don't understand what it means when it says optional or discretionary service charge. From the government website (There are two types of service charges: discretionary and mandatory. The former is when it's “made clear to the customer” that you don't need to pay the charge, according to HM Revenue and Customs. Commonly, this is done by restaurants using the words “discretionary” or “optional” on the bill or menu.) Flagged for improper practice Keep away from this rubbish branch.

Me and my partner both agree that this is the most exciting restaurant in London. The food is absolutely *bonkers* good, you would not believe the quality of the vegan meat and cheese. Everything on the plate is perfection and the staff also go the extra mile to make your visit special. The drinks were excellent and matched the vibrant, crackling atmosphere. 10/10, truly.

Me and my friends had a great time! Delicious food, great service and our waiter was amazing (wish I could remember her name)!

Good food. Absolutely wonderful service by Charlotte and Mollie! I requested them last minute for a birthday cake with candle for my friend. But they went out of their way & sang a birthday song & made it so big! Lovely service!

Lovely food. Attentive and warm staff. Recommended! Thank you

If you are lucky enough to get a table, Club Mexicana is a great stop for food! I had the cheezeburger burrito bowl, which was light and fresh - not stodgy or heavy. It felt like I was eating a healthy salad rather than junk food! We went on a Saturday evening and it was packed with loud music, which for a small hole in the wall type place may not be for everyone, as it's slightly claustrophobic in there and incredibly hot, as you are right by the grill in a sushi bar style with a few cafe tables. But it's rather cramped. The servers were very friendly, a little forgetful but corrected mistakes when asked but very welcoming and incredibly knowledgeable about the menu and happy to answer any questions which was a lovely experience when ordering. Drinks were overpriced (£5 for a can of kombucha) but the food is really reasonable! The chips with garlic mayo are so tasty and just the right portion size when combined with a main meal. I paid £25 for the chips, burrito and drink.

The food is incredibly delicious, burrito with chorizo my favorite.

We have been having dinner on May 30. The food was very delicious and the beer was cold, something difficult in London. The brutal service, our waitress, I don't remember her name but she is from Madrid, treated us like a lifelong friend!! Without a doubt, highly recommended

Kind and fast service! Delicious Burritos- we had the cheeseburger and fried chicken burrito and the skinny fries. Without a doubt the best fries we've ever eaten!

I booked this place with a few friends to try something new and we didn't expect to be staying for cocktails and the great atmosphere! Not usually one for vegan food but our server Brogan recommend the "fish" taco which was delish. She was also super knowledgeable on the what it was made of as I'm always quite curious about what goes in meat alternatives. We felt very catered to and ended up having a very fun (and tipsy) evening. Will definitely come back here again, especially now I need to try taco Tuesday!
