Mestizo Restaurant & Margarita Bar in Kensington and Chelsea

Good morning 🍀 It has good service, the only thing is that it is a place that is too "cozy" between table and table 😅

Really good quality and portion sizes. Drinks and ambiance really made the evening too , would happily go back.

Excellent service from Nicol, the food was amazing, the margaritas were delicious by the way

Excellent service from Juani, very attentive and helpful.

Atmosphere and service 10/10 Super good food 👌 And the drinks are more than perfect 👌 Very good waiters Advisable

Once again the ratings mislead. The “Alambra” tacos I ordered consisted of tough, rather poor quality beef chunks and came with corn tacos that had a particular wetness associated of warming something up from the freezer. Poor value for money. The venue has a nice ambiance however.

The food was very good and López's attention was great.

Kevin treated me in the best way I felt at home I will return

Everything is superb, the service impeccable, the restaurant has character and atmosphere instead of being stuffy, the prawns are unbelievably succulent, and the flavours especially in the tortillas out of this world. The Tequila presentation was a lovely touch. Gracias!

Without hesitation, the worst Mexican food I have ever had in my life, and I have been in many, including few trips to Mexico. We went there because the one in Warren Street is decent and the menu looks appealing. They made us wait almost an hour until we were seated and the food was horrendous. PLEASE AVOID if you are looking for good Mexican food. This is a place to have a drink at the bar and maybe some dancing downstairs.

Alan and his colleagues were fantastic hosts. We had a super time and loved the cocktails. A great night.

Really good restaurant, the food is exceptional quality and talking about exceptional the service was out of this world with us being allocated a waitress that attended any request we had in a matter of seconds.

We found the place by chance and went there. The service was very good. They understood that we were unfamiliar with the cuisine, so they specifically warned us about the intense taste of some dishes. Although the food we ate was delicious, after a while we had to leave half of the food on the plate because of the large portions and the intense taste of the food. But our dessert was legendary. I'm glad we followed the recommendation and ordered it. Also, their margaritas were great.

True Mexican restaurant, enjoyed the food, service and venue, would for sure come again

Graeat atmosphere and tasty food ..vibbrant bar and staff were very welcoming in particular Abella who was extremely professional and attentive …a fun evening

Great attention provided by Peter, and the food was excellent too!

The service was amazing with amazing food Nicol lopez was very friendly and kind !

Booked a table for Friday night, paid a £60 deposit, and confirmed the reservation over the phone only to have the reservation canceled in the middle of the night by the restaurant with no explanation given. Update: Edited to say that I was contacted by a customer relations manager and told this was a problem with The Fork, the booking platform I used to make my reservation. The manager did say this was an issue that happens often, so keep that in mind and book directly with the restaurant. I was offered a different time slot to the one I had booked, which was a nice offer, but sadly we'd already booked in elsewhere. My deposit was promptly refunded. Appreciated the call and hope to be able to actually try the food soon!

Amassing food and amazing service. Thank you Benito for an unforgettable evening!!

Authentic Mexican favours and great mezcal selections! Thank you Nicol and the team for the impeccable service.

Overall didn’t love the food. We got the Taco tray which was not my favorite. Service was fine. Lots of parties there so would mainly go as a large group.

Fantastic service from all the team with a special mention for Ruben. Cocktails out of this world.

Peter was a great host! Gave us all the best recommendations

Excellent place to enjoy with family and friends I came to the Sunday buffet, with mariachi I definitely recommend it. Michelle and López made our stay very pleasant. The chef was very helpful and gave excellent recommendations. The horchata and hibiscus water were also very delicious.

Beautiful bar, super friendly staff and an incredible dessert menu!!!

Abella was so amazing and made my experience so fun! She super attentive and gave the best recommendations. I would highly recommend this charming spot to anyone visiting who is looking for great service and good food!

A great meal!! Abella gave an amazing cocktail recommendation and service!

Not coming back I happened to stumble upon Meztizo Chelsea the other night. My boyfriend and I had several cocktails at the bar. We heard that there was a party downstairs so we wanted to see what was up.(lol) It was a great vibe up until I went to order a drink and a guy called Melio was so rude to us and was shouting at the other barmen… it was so awkward and this guy was insanely rude. So we left.

Miguel made our dinner very special by providing best recommendations from the menu. Great food and atmosphere. We will be back 💛🤗

Came here for a friend’s birthday and everything was great - food and service were both excellent, thank you for a great night!

Came for my birthday dinner with a group of friends last weekend. Amazing food, drinks and service!!!!

Our first visit and. Food and service were both good here the only criticism I would provide is the cleanliness of firstly the stairs to the bathrooms and kitchen were filthy - full of dirt and sticky and the bathrooms were not clean at all, which always makes me think how clean is the kitchen? Service was good but attention to the cleanliness would make this place a super 5star venue

Our server Peter was helpful from the outset. He gave great food recommendations and was attentive throughout. Will definitely be returning.

Great food and service. Lovely drinks

Uncomfortable and agressive experience. Last night, my girlfriends and I visited Mestizo in Chelsea. The cocktails were delicious and the vibe was great however, we ended up leaving out of uncomfortableness because of a staff members behavior (his name was something like Julio/Emilio?). We witnessed him aggressively shouting at all of the staff many times in the night, it was shocking. What finally made us leave, was when he was shouting at the staff aggressively right in front of us, as if he didn’t care who witnessed his horrible behavior. It was shocking to see such aggressive and unprofessional behavior, it’s surprising that Mestizo Chelsea allows this to happen. It’s spoilt a really cool place for a night out.

Abella was fabulous from start to finish - a great asset to the business

Abella was amazing! She gave us a tester of the sauce when we weren’t 100% sure what we needed. Was so attentive, always there when we needed her. Fantastic, great service and great food. :)

Spectacular food and 10 service, one of the best restaurants I have eaten at while on vacation in London. I plan to return

Super good food and great service, Michelle is lovely, I would recommend it :)

Abella was so lovely and helpful!

Abella was a great server, lovely food and great atmosphere

Abella and all the servers out front were great!

Abella was very nice, helping us with good suggestions of what to get and the food was lovely

Mestizo is by far the best Mexican food I've had in London. Authentic flavours and top notch service from Lopez and his colleagues.

took my family for a birthday celebration and had a lovely time!! Nicol especially was so lovely attending our table with amazing service!! Her amazing mexican hospitality made my family and i feel right back at home in Mexico City! 🥹 10/10 would recommend and will be attending again very soon for sure 😆

Abella was great. Look forward to coming back.

Amazing food, drinks and service. Thank you to Lopez to made our experience the best. Do not miss the flautas and the palomas. Thank you guys, we honestly had such an amazing time and we definitely come back again

Amazing food and service. Lopez was incredibly helpful. 100% recommended!!!

The best López and the atmosphere of the scream 🥰

Ish and Peter’s service was great!

Great service from Yjowel and Abella, amazing atmosphere and delicious food

The place and food is very nice but the service is pressuring you to order quick and fast, so you leave the table free as soon as possible. It is quite annoying tbh

Yjowel and Abella made our meal so special, first time going here and it was honestly so so amazing. They didnt stop checking if we had everything we needed, will definitely be returning !! I have an allergy and they made sure I had everything I needed, so attentive and recommended such incredible dishes (had the rib eye and guac and sea bass)

Horrible service, staff and food.

This was the best Mexican restaurant I've been to, the food and the staff were amazing and the atmosphere was amazing aswell

Service was amazing! Lopez was very kind and informing. Very cool place!

Excellent food. Tremendous service. Made to feel at home on my daughter’s birthday. Recommended!

My dining experience at the restaurant was exceptional. The wide variety of food choices initially appeared overwhelming, but Carlos, the owner, and the other servers graciously assisted me in navigating the menu with their extensive knowledge. The crispy FLAUTAS I savoured as a starter was flavoured, and my main course (Molcajete Mestizo) was equally delightful. However, I indulged in the PASTEL DE QUESO y COCO (a baked cream cheese and coconut cheesecake with mango sauce) for dessert, which was unparalleled. The attention to detail in the restaurant's decor enhanced the overall ambience and made the entire experience truly unforgettable.

Amazing service. They asked about the allergies. Served by Abella

Nice place, great service and sensational food; I liked it a lot 😍 Nice place, great service and sensational food; I liked it a lot ❤️

Had a lovely afternoon/evening sampling some really special and interesting cocktails mixed by the alchemist called Canelo. He was not only very knowledgeable, but was a thoroughly good host. If you fancy a special cocktail….don’t hesitate to go and see him….

Great service by Yasmin. Really good with our young kids.

Food was nice and lots of vegetarian options. We got the sharing taco board which made it fun to customise. The service was fantastic and all staff were so friendly and warm - a special shout out to Juani for looking after us, you were fantastic!

the drinks were great and the food authentic. Rodrigo’s service was also ace and flexible, made really good recommendations and the food was made quickly

Food was so poor. The ceviche was probably the best bit but not the freshest ever. The mains were horrendous, slathered in cheap cheese, lacking in depth of flavour. For the price you expect authentic flavour and quality produce but this was like getting a microwave meal. Two of us felt ill with nausea on the way home and stomach cramps having felt fine before. Cocktails were generally good. Staff were very polite, rather rushed off their feet but otherwise very helpful, no criticism for them but if you are coming for food don't bother. Usual Chelsea, over priced and poor quality.

I’ve been celebrating my friend’s birthday and I really loved the accurate attention that Juan gave to the details. I definitely will come back and with more friends. The atmosphere is decorated with naturally elements from the nature and is very cosy the please. The food is tasty and you have so much to choose as well as the way that that prepare the cocktails, simply amazing. Thank you!!!

Just wow. Incredible food and great drinks.

Thanks to Juan for the incredible experience at the restaurant! Above all, thank you for the food and kindness. Everything amazing and good

Juan was fantastic, the best birthday of my life, Thank you, Thank you and Thank you!!

Juan Ignacio has given us excellent service. He has given us recommendations and very good treatment

Quite disappointed in this meal. Having been to the Euston branch, had higher expectations of the food. It is ridiculously expensive for what it is, couldn’t believe when we saw the bill. The food just wasn’t good. The service was scattered in spite of the restaurant being empty.

Abella and Alan are the greatest. Everything was perfect. This place rocks.

Mestizo has to be the best experience in Chelsea. Last night we celebrated a birthday and they made it so much fun for us. The food and drinks are amazing and well priced. A big thank you to Juani in particular, for making us feel so welcome, right from the beginning to the end. Also we recommend having a drink by the bar before dinner because the 2 Alans that work in the bar are extremely talented in making cocktails. We will be coming back!

Lovely little Mexican place in Chelsea. From the food to the service all had been amazing. Could not complain about anything. Portions are the right amount too. Enjoyed all the dishes we ordered. Shame it’s about 20mins walk from Imperial Wharf, otherwise once you are there you forget about the distance. Definitely worth the visit.

Alan and Andrei made our night. These guys are top class bartenders and a complete asset to the Mestizo. Their knowledge, professionalism and friendliness is unmatched to Soho club in London.

Great food really authentic with good atmosphere . Juani served us with world class customer service as you expect from a restaurant in Chelsea. Thank you Juani

I had such a great experience at Mestizo.a special shoutout to Juani for giving us a 5 star experience. From start to finish he was so professional and helpful and made it such a great evening . Couldn’t recommend more.

Awesome time at Mestizo with my fiancée and brother on a Wednesday night! The Chicken Mole Molcajete was fantastic, highly recommend ordering that as its better than the Mole tacos on its own. Pulpo tacos also great. Margaritas are really tasty. Service was also swift and lovely; thank you Juani and Abella for showing us a good time!

Fantastic food and great service from Juani. Really good atmosphere too! 10/10 will be back

Juani was the best server! 11/10

JUANI gave us the best service, food was delicious.

Great food and the staff were brilliant! Such a fun atmosphere and shout out to Juani who made the whole night fun. Will be returning!

My boyfriend and I went for a Saturday lunch date at Mestizo. The food was great, good portions and very tasty. They also give you some free nachos chips with green sauce to start with. All the staff was welcoming and great, especially Juani who served us with a great smile.

The margaritas, tamales and tacos were great and the staff were very nice, especially Juani!

Honestly great place, very good and quick service with a personal touch. Canelo and Abella provided us with an excellent service and I would always want to come back just because of the two of them, great experience overall! Looking forward to eating here again in the future :)

We had a lovely lunch here with our two year old daughter. Coming from the U.S., we’ve desperately missed Mexican food in the UK and enjoyed the meal, the atmosphere and the spicy margaritas. Juani was so kind and attentive to our daughter - bringing her extra ice cream and tortillas to keep her happy through the whole meal. We will be back!

thank you juani😝😝the food and service is great, will be coming back.

We had the best time! Juani was our server and he made our experience the best - great food recommendations & so much fun!

Amazing atmosphere and delicious comida!! Juani was the most amazing waiter and made us feel very special! Lovely evening will come back very soon. Muchas gracias

Had another wonderful meal and great service from Juani. Everyone I come to London and find myself near Chelsea I make my way down Kings to Mestizo.

Don’t order the “Gourmet” Rib eye.

We loved our experience at this restaurant. Juani was the best waiter and made us feel very special. Great drinks and great food. Very fun experience! Must visit if in London.

Me and my friend visited Mestizo Chelsea on 04/08/2024. We had the bestttt time ever! Our server was Michelle and she was fantastic, she made the experience so enjoyable. She honestly made us feel soo welcomed and answered all our questions with great enthusiasm. The food was delicious and did not take long to come out. We will be coming back for the food but also for Michelle. SHE IS A STAR. I hope this can be used as recognition for her fantastic work, she deserves to be highlighted!

Thank you to the whole Mestizo team! From informal Spanish lessons to delicious food and a generous flow of drinks, we were super well looked after by the very charismatic Juani. Muchos gracias para todos! 🍸🌮

What a fantastic place! I am in town visiting from the states and came with 8 people on a Thursday afternoon. Everything was absolutely perfect - the food, the cocktails, the service, the decor. Definitely recommend booking this place for a group or even for a date night. Really great tequila selection as well. Juan was our waiter and he was super helpful.

Delicious food and excellent service, Juani was amazing - thank you!

Great food and great service - was especially pleased by Juani’s kind attention to my family’s allergies. Second time here and would definitely come again!

very good place def recommend.Juani’s service is incredible.

very good place and juani’s servise is really good, I recommend

Tried here for the first time for my partners birthday and was brilliant. Food was 10/10 and they really went all out to make this occasion special and made us laugh so much surprising him :)
