Del74 in Hackney

We visited 3 taco places along the high street during our ‘taco and tequila bar crawl’ and these guys won hands down! Jamal who greeted and served us throughout our time was there was amazing and gave the best service ever! The food was amazing and the bottomless brunch options were great value for money! The ambiance was soo nice with the front windows open giving an indoor-outdoor feel. No complaints at all and cannot wait to revisit when we’re next in the area!

Charging £6.50 for a small glass of wine served in a beaker in a restaurant with zero ambience is ok for you then you would enjoy your visit here....... I personally resent being charged £3.00 for a mixer size 20ml bottle of coke... still hey ho the complimentary tacos cost £3.00 as well.. This place has nothing to recommend it.

There was confusion with what to order and I was lead into ordering something I didn't want. The vegan food was very basic and poor quality. The drinks mixer was kind and polite and tried to help with the order. I'm a bit of an awkward customer so had planned to tip heavily but felt I was overcharged, so I didn't bother. I don't recommend it although some of the meat dishes were apparently ok.

Honestly one of the greatest places in East London where I always want to come back! Tacos are simply delicious, really authentic Mexican food, the atmosphere is always great, staff so friendly and caring, and the cocktails are just fabulous!! Watermelon margaritas are a must! Every time we go there we have a great experience, good food and great vibes! What else can you ask for? For many years of Del74 bringing us the best taste of Mexico and the greatest vibes of London! Thanks guys!

Can’t believe how rude the manager was. Food was served cold and the manager totally mugged us off, probably one of the worst tacos I’ve ever had. Never returning. Avoid at all costs!

Food is admittedly very yummy but told server I had avocado allergy, she checked over the food I ordered, said she’d tell the chef and have now been hunched over the loo all night with a bad reaction. Not sure if was contamination or was something in the food. Accidents happen but wouldn’t go here if you have severe allergies!! Additionally they brought wrong quantities of food/ wrong things.

Not sure I would recommend this place. Very cramped space, and unbearably hot on a sunny day. The staff are not very friendly. ‘All you can eat’ for bottomless brunch is actually just selecting 3 dishes, which is fine and the food was nice, however would have been nice to have known the details of the menu before the visit. I messaged and emailed prior to my visit asking for details of the menu, as we had some vegan and GF members of the party, but I recieved no response which was disappointing. The bottomless drink choice is cucumber, watermelon or lime margarita. The drinks were nice, but for bottomless brunch are served in jugs. We also had a 12.5% service charge added to our bill, which we didn’t want to pay, as the service wasn’t up to scratch, but when we asked for this to be removed we were told ‘I don’t know how to do that’. All in all an okay place, but wouldn’t necessarily go again, for the price there are definitely better bottomless brunches.

I have been here several times- always on Taco Tuesday where they do very cheap tacos and margaritas. It gets busy so book ahead! Great fish and veggie tacos and margaritas are so so more-ish. Service can be a little slow when busy but just sit and enjoy the atmosphere with a margs and guacamole! Will be back over and over again

I don’t even know where to start with this. You have to be Mathematician to order from here - and even then you can be guaranteed that they bring the right order, right amount, or even place the right dish In front of you. It started with a very confusing menu design. Definitely something that needs to be worked on. the menu says; tacos £2 but a 1 portion is 2 tacos and how to order (that we order ourselves on a piece of paper with a pencil and the staff weren’t able to even count that) They couldn’t even count the right amount of tacos to bring us. And the taco…. they were AWFULL!! ABSOLUTELY AWFUL Small pieces of cold tortilla with a tablespoon of mush on top. Plates just thrown on the table. No idea what is what. Or who ordered what. The staff were just so childish. I’ve had better service from a school ground bake sale! They were playing and biting each other behind the counter, punching and giggling so loud. Was very uncomfortable to be around. The nachos!! Omg the worst nachos (if I can even call them that) Simply!! tortilla chips with hot sauce poured over. NO SLASA. NO AVO. NO CHEESE. NO SOURCREAM £9!!!! Absolutely ridiculous….. The table water smelt horrid as well. Must’ve been sitting in those bottles for ages and wonder when they were last cleaned. Service. At the end. When we tried to explain that I hadn’t even received my tacos as all was just thrown on the table and we didn’t know what was what as also the presentation. The service was so ignorant. I eventually asked for the service charge to be removed. To which another member of the staff joined our waiter for some unknown reason to be apart of this conversation. The attitude I received after, left a worse taste in my mouth than the nachos. Eventually we had enough of waiting to pay while he cleaned tables as we were the last ones and also wanted to get out. We started to leave and he came over once he noticed we had our coats on. This place was an embarrassment from start to finish. Cringe worthy And would highly recommend that you avoid it. A food truck would serve better standards and quality.

Almost got put off due to the bad reviews, don’t believe it. The service, food and atmosphere were great. Fish tacos and beef tostadas were cracking. Spicy mezcal marg was also tasty. Big thumbs up from us.

Had great food at this place, especially the cauliflower tacos and sea bass ceviche. Music playing gave it a fun atmosphere. Service got a little slow but it was a Friday night... Only problem is, when I went to pay the wait staff asked if I wanted to leave a tip, I was confused as we had paid a 12.5% service charge. Then I was told the service charge goes to the owners! Not the people who served me! Really awful. Quite abhorrent to cheat your workers out of their well deserved tips.

This week I dined at Dell 74 for the 3rd time as I had been quite impressed the first 2 times in terms of taste + value for money and had really rated the place. 3rd time was minus any charm unfortunately. The food was terrible and again the staff tried to encourage us to order too much food and extra unwanted margaritas. The tacos themselves were soggy + v poor quality (required use of cutlery to eat), the nachos cheap and oversalted and a side of beans was like brown slop. Such a shame as previously v tasty. After the meal, I wished I could uneat it. Did the management change?

Some of the best tacos in London. Had the brisket, slow cooked pork with crackling and fish which were all delicious. Staff were so friendly and helpful with a great atmosphere. Can't recommend it enough. The watermelon mezcal margarita was very special, a must try

The manager was really rude to not just my table but to others. He refuses to explain how the menu works - it is very unclear on how much food you are ordering. He lets people misorder and get too much food then refuses to take the extra orders off the bill. We watched him do this to two other tables next to us. He offered no apology and no refund and forced us to pay, he made us feel really uncomfortable. The food and other waiters were lovely such a shame such an awful man runs this restaurant, I don’t recommend anyone to go here for that reason.

Super leuke sfeer en echt fantastische tortillas. Verstopte parel in een buurt waar je niet snel komt! Hun verse guacamole en verse tortillachips is een aanrader.

Del74 has incredible food, friendly staff, and an overall great venue! I was honestly a little apprehensive about dining here after reading some of the reviews on here - so glad I ignored them! Everyone at Del74 was warm and friendly, even on a packed Saturday night. We were a group of 5 people and the food did come out at a staggered pace but you are ordering small, freshly made tapas style food so it’s to be expected. The guacamole starter was fresh and the salsa had just the right amount of spice. We ordered a mix of tacos and quesadillas- all were great! Ignore the negative reviews on here and enjoy great, freshly made food with a friendly staff. You will definitely have a great time! I will be back again soon. Thanks for a great night!

This place is great - food and drinks!! Never had a bad experience and have visited multiple times. Can get very busy but staff are accommodating and hasn't affected my service. Worth a visit - best tacos ive had in London. Ignore bad reviews and visit - not a place dalston wants to loose

After finding del74 highly recommended online for tacos we were dissapointed to read such negative reviews regarding the restaurant. We went on a Saturday evening at 7pm and shortly after we arrived it got quite busy but we must say the young girl with colourful hair who served us was very attentive and within 25 minutes of sitting down we had placed our food order and recieved our first round of drinks! (highly recommend the watermelon margaritas!) our nachos and guac came almostly instantly followed by our tacos and quesadillas the pork rib eye with pineapple was Amazing!! As was the beef brisket and fish. We had to wait a while to get our bill but its understandable when the restaurant is busy. I wouldn't say the waitresses and who I believe was the manager from reading previous reviews were particularly over accommodating and can see how one might find them on the "rude" side but it was a pleasant evening and we would definitely come back!

Don’t bother unless you want to wait 2 hours for mediocre food and feel invisible to the service. Music way too loud too
