The place used to be a very convenient and popular Chinese buffet, with heaps of good food for cheap, before Brexit and Covid made it sink. Since then, we have seen several incarnations, all carrying the same furniture, lifted from a disused kindergarten by the sight of it. And the sight of it it is, because during daytime this is a dead spot, adding nothing of use to our high street. What it adds is a bunch of uncohering, garish colors, in an awkward bid to replicate the hip bits of Hackney. Geometric wall painting (straight lines in aqua and orange — that was easy, huh?) clashes with "old-school graffiti art" on the board and shutter, about as fancy as sleeping rough by the train tracks. A perfectly nauseating mix with the aforementioned furniture. As for the service, I don't know. I wouldn't want to go in and sit on a kid's chair, and play "assemble your hip food" on an ashtray sized table if they paid me.

So damn good! The food is ridiculous. I had the two vegan options and my friend had a beef and a pork, I think. We were both blown away. Lovely staff and a fantastic soundtrack of Hieroglyphics and other excellent mid/late 90s hip hop. Also, dogs are welcome, which is always hugely appreciated. Highest recommendation.

Homies on Donkeys I’ve been to an amount I cannot count. It’s amazing authentic Mexican food, I’d highly recommend the salsa tasting platter to go alongside whatever tacos you get! If you’ve not been here, you really have to come and try it. It’s one of the only taco places in London I’ve been to that actually gives you a good amount of filling in the taco, rather than it being more tortilla than filling! They are dog friendly too which is always a major plus for us.

A great addition to Leytonstone - really good Mexican tacos 🌮 and more, with lots of space, very funky designs, and some really good booths for groups to sit in. We ordered three sets of tacos between two of us - tacos come in sets of two, so six tacos in total. The food was delicious and arrived quickly. Maybe the tuna could have been better presented - we expected slabs, but the meat was actually broken into fibres, like the pork ones. This is a minor quibble though - looking forward to going again!

Great Mexican restaurant in the middle of Leytonstone High Road. The special Tuna was the star of the show. Very generously filled tacos and tasty cocktails. Staff were attentive and gave good advice on the food. Vibe was fun, but the restaurant was a little loud for my taste. Would absolutely recommend it.

Great tacos But unfortunately service could’ve been much much better. Had to wait for ages to simply get water, wine we finished out water we couldn’t get anyone’s attention to refill it. When asked for the bill we had to wait another 15min to pay for the bill. Very unusual as it wasn’t even a busy day. Made out experience not as pleasurable

Food is delicious but the portions are insanely small for their price; we should have ordered at least 3 times the amount to feel full. The place is cool, maybe a little childish interiors with all the graffiti but that’s personal taste. Also when we were there they only played rap music which I find very annoying, mostly while I’m trying to eat.

The food and drink lives up to the great reviews. If you can handle spicy I would highly recommend the roasted jalapeños. Everyone enjoyed their tacos- so much flavour and choice (good for veggies and vegan too)- the salsa tasting platter is a must. Margarita and drinks menu is extensive and tasty (recommend the spicy margarita or mezcalita). The atmosphere is cool but we were in a booth and it was probably a bit small for the whole party. Service- we had one 11/10 server who was attentive and friendly and helpful considering some of the party were late, however another server- not so much so… I would 100% return as there is so much to try!

Surprisingly busy for a Thursday lunchtime. We were first in but the restaurant soon filled up. Service was bit slow with only one waitress covering the entire restaurant. The Bavette Steak taco was ok; the steak was lovely medium rare but it needed a bit more spice/seasoning. The Bone Marrow and Braised Chuck was excellent and definitely worth going back to get this again. The Tunita Pibil was actually very flavoursome but the cooked tuna texture wasn’t my liking but that’s a personal preference and it still tasted great. Portions size were deceptive and enough to fill us up with just one main (2 tacos each). Wanted to eat more but had no room left. Need to go back again perhaps in the evening when I can imagine the atmosphere would be more lively.

We came to Homies on donkeys for an evening meal with friends it is located in the middle of Leytonstone and had a very cool atmosphere. The staff were friendly and attentive, with them taking our food and drinks orders promptly. The tacos were very tasty with a generous amount of fillings in each taco the pulled pork filling and prawn tacos, both tasting particularly good! Negatives are that although the margaritas tasted amazing, the old fashion was quite watered down, and the menu I felt that the menu lacked additional options for food outside of the Tacos.Would recommend this to anyone in the area who is a fan of mexcian food but in particular Tacos.

Nice enough spot with cute decor and ok food but the service was sub par, staff didn't ask us for any drinks orders after the first round, were clearing the restaurant around us whilst we were still eating, including putting chairs on top of tables, at 9:30pm, felt like they couldn't wait for us to leave, despite the restaurant closing at 10pm.

Everything was really good. Our Waitress Ayesha was so professional that we were astonished she had never waited on tables before. The only criticism I have was about the gender neutral toilets. As with all places that have these, there was "wet" on the floors from bad aiming and they smelt. I would prefer there to be men and women with a separate gender neutral toilet in ALL restaurants. Otherwise top marks.

A bit pricey, but you get what you pay for. I say that the prices are fair because they make the best tacos in London hands down. Authentic, real Mexican food in London. I wouldn't have believed it if you told me. I live in the NW, and I still make the 3 hour roundtrip to eat here. If you like actual spicy, their habanero sauce is on point.

Honestly everything tasted the same. A thick greasy red sauce dominated every dish and completely ruined the probably good ingredients (ie the bavette). Really disappointing. And the guacamole was like something out of a jar. Not a single fresh taste on anything.

Genuinely the tastiest tacos I’ve tasted in London. Walked in without a booking on a busy Saturday evening, and luckily was still able to be seated.

Everything tasted stunning, and am already thinking about my next visit *drools*.

Quirky location with... experimental tacos! Carnitas was the most authentic taco we had. Tuna tostada was very nice. Bavette was original, grilled perfectly - I highly recommend you try it. Birria tasted like barbecue sauce which didn't sit quite right. Chicken barbacoa came as big chunks instead of being shredded. Generally tasty, big portions (thankfully) which justify the prices. Beware, most tacos are spicy.

Haven’t left a restaurant review in a minute but man this place was a disappointment. I made a reservation to get a bite before an event down the street. The server was kind at first, the drink arrived quickly. Because it was happy hour the restaurant was empty, but for some reason they sat a couple directly next to me. I was about 1.5 feet away and could hear every word of their convo like they were speaking directly to me. I don’t mind a noisy restaurant generally, but having to listen to one loud conversation without any other chatter to drown it out can be pretty irritating (especially if you have some sensory issues like I admittedly do). About 80% of the tables in the place were empty so I eventually asked if I could move to another. The server asked another employee and gave me a new table across the way (which did make a big difference for me). But apparently my request annoyed the server and so I was ignored for the rest of my meal. I waited 10 mins after finishing my food for her to take my plate away, and another 10 -15 to get the check which I eventually had to ask for. In addition to sort of feeling punished for what I think was a pretty modest request, the food wasn’t very good. The refried beans tasted overwhelmingly like bouillon cubes, and the carnitas tacos were too salty and tasted like butter (which is overkill since that cut of meat is usually super high fat). The drink was nice, but the food was def a British take on Mexican flavors.

We love that it comes whenever it’s ready, something is always coming to the table which is definitely the best way to do it! There’s a few staples on the menu that we love, but there’s always something new to try so you can mix it up. Will always recommend the hard horchata & potatoes with chorizo! They’re dog friendly, which ours is a big fan of cause it means she can get in on some of the taco action too!

Excellent food, excellent drinks and service. However, of the three all gender bathrooms available, only one had toilet paper, or even the facilities (a toilet roll holder) for toilet paper. This does not accommodate people who require toilet paper for bathroom visits and therefore your all-gender bathrooms are mislabelled as such. If your bathroom does not provide the service for every gender it cannot be labelled an all-gender bathroom.

This is not a place if you don't like chillies. Everything has them. Saying that the food was good. We wouldn't have called the tacos we had tacos. We had the chicken tacos. They were tiny. Everything was falling out. It would have been better with just one larger one. It was also small for a main course so we ordered a guacamole. That had chillies in the salsa. It really took any pleasure of the avocados away from us. I guess it is "a la mode" for people for now. I really hope it is a short-lived style. The music was very loud.

Can’t quite put my finger on why but atmosphere is somehow lacking something, music a bit too quiet to hear, no real buzz despite being full most of the time we were there. However, the food…the food is insanely good. Don't worry about the atmosphere, bring your mates, bring your loved ones and eat allll of the food. Asparagus from the specials deserves a standalone mention but honestly everything we had really had great depth of flavour and the tacos are packed full. Can’t wait to come back!

I know this will be a isolated bad review but oh well here it goes. I was legitimately excited to try this place being from mexico and having it so close to where I live, especially because it advertised itself as a taqueria that served northern west coast style tacos ( baja region tacos if you know mexican food). Unfortunately the style was rather a mix of all over which I am not against, I understand it can be difficult to focus on a single region, especially when trying to get specific ingredients. However, although the assortment is a decent representation of taco types from around mexico the actual taste of these are quite far from from what I expected. Most of them tasted sweet, which in the case of barbacoa I may understand but a sweeter birria?! Unfortunately, it does not end with the food, while I had two margaritas which were decent and to kill it off with a michelada ( which is not the lime salt version) that was flat and with barely any spice to it, really missed the mark in tying it together. Also to charge for the salsas just seems bit too much for me. Nevertheless, All’s not bad though staff is incredibly friendly and helpful and the place has a new age vibe to it which is not too over the top. To not overextend this review, I think it’s sufficient to say that I will not be coming back.

Soft tacos is this place's speciality, and they do them very nicely indeed. Seasonal options also available - we had the roasted asparagus, fantastic! Expect to eat with your fingers (only). Foodwise, my only negative comment is that the tortilla chips are oily - would be better if not so. Dinner for 4 including 2 alcoholic, 2 non-alcoholic drinks, 2 asparagus plates, 1 guacamole, 1 roasted jalapeno, and 5 mains, was a reasonable £106. Service is comes with a smile and a 12.5% tip included in the bill and a recommendation to select 3 taco dishes for each 2 diners. Only a mid-range rating for atmosphere as on a packed Saturday night, this place was noisy enough that conversation had to be bar-loud.

Very loud due to hard surfaces. Drinks slow. Have high chairs for babies but do not offer baby food or juices or ice cream. Would not take a child again. You recommend getting stuck in with hands but at least offer wipes very sticky food. Do not anticipate returning.

Food here is great! Definitely would need to book in advance, they were busy so you have to set expectations that nothing will come out in a reasonable time frame. I will definitely look to book well in advance!

The food was great. There is not a large menu and if you have a larger party you might get to order the whole menu. Service was attentive without being over bearing. The large open space restaurant has been changed and now provides a feeling of a more intimate feel of a smaller restaurant. During the day it would be bright and cheerful, but can be changed for the evening to be more subdued. Overall a great experience. One that I will definitely be going back too.

Great food, small portions but really tasty. Service was messy and we went on a group of 4 and all food order wasn’t done simultaneously, my dish was the last, I had to remind them about my order. I was really disappointed as the food was beautifully done. Portions could be bigger though. 2 smalls tacos per person is a bit stingy.

Absolutely fantastic. Been recommended by 3 friends and it didn’t disappoint. Food was really good. Fresh, flavourful & has great options for meat eaters, veggies and Vegans. Nice small menu so food and drinks are flowing at a good speed and consistency.
