Mestizo in Camden

Great food, amazing cocktails, friendly staff. Buzzy atmosphere, live entertainment. Can't fault it!

The service was so good!! The staff were very quick, kind and attentive. The best margaritas I've had in ages, and the food was so delicious. Really filling and so well seasoned. The chicken was falling apart when you touch it with a fork. So good.

Excellent service and atmosphere. Daniel is a superb waiter, very attentive and super fast.

I had two pork tamales wrapped in the banana leaf, 5 pastor tacos, two modelo cheladas, and a tres leches. My server, Adriana, was phenomenal. Mucho gusto Adriana y gracias por todo! Best Mexican food I’ve had in England. You gotta swing by!!!

So fun!! Great food and i went with mexicans and they loved it so it’s approved!!!

Food was great and with good ambience. Daniel attended my table. He was a great waiter, gave us good recommendations, as we say in Mexico, es a toda madre.

Best Mexican restaurant we've been to in Lincoln, hands down. The food was excellent, the atmosphere was lively, and the service was good. The taco tray was tasty and came in a decent portion. The margaritas were strong and flavourful. We'll definitely be back.

A group of us had made a reservation for my friend’s birthday. I arrived early with a cake and candles, and asked the maître d’ if he would kindly keep it hidden until the end of the meal, then bring it out for my friend. He told me this was a chargeable service. When I asked how much, he seemed to think for a moment before saying ‘£10’. He later told my friend this was Mestizo policy. I’ve never heard of such a thing anywhere else and was very disheartened that Mestizo would be trying to profit off something that everywhere else does out of good will, especially as they can hardly be struggling to make money. I understand that they would prefer you to buy their own desserts, in which case an answer of ‘sorry, we can’t provide that service’ would have been much more understandable. To ask £10 to put candles on a cake and bring it to the table is ridiculous. If it weren’t for the fact that it was my birthday friend’s restaurant of choice, I would have been keen to take my business elsewhere. I’m keen to point out that the food was tasty and our waiter was absolutely lovely and very attentive. Unfortunately the experience right before the meal definitely left a sour taste in my mouth and I won’t be returning.

Excellent service. Daniel was incredible, super friendly, and really contributed to our super-pleasant experience. Highly recommended.

Delicious food and great service

Excellent service and food. Authentic flavor with good price!

We were served by Daniel who was fantastic and had an amazing time! Having family from Mexico it felt like we were home! Mil Gracias no vemos el Jueves pues venimos a bailar😁

Amazing meal and great service. Authentic Mexican food.

I am Mexican and have lived in the UK for 18 years and I still find Mestizo the most authentic and delicious place to eat Mexican food in London. My children and I absolutely love it. They are super careful with allergies and the service is always excellent. It is also great to have the shop next door to go and get some Mexican produce after getting some inspiration from real Mexican delights!

Fantastic service and food superb especially the mole sauce

Highly recommended. Delicious food, adequate to the price, great service, nice atmosphere.

The food lacks taste. It was very loud in the restaurant and so hardly able to hear my friends.

Well this is about as genuine Mexican as you can get outside Mexico. They have 5 restaurants (3 in Mexico and 2 in London). I had CREPAS DE FLOR DE CALABAZA which is a very unusual (but delicious) dish, but the sharing tacos and other dishes were also great. You need to order guacamole separately for the nachos! Good selection of Mexican food and drink all round. We had Mescal, beer and margaritas. Beware of the Margarita pitcher - it's quite expensive at around £50 but has a very large amount of Tequila in the mix - too much for two! Recommended.

Food incredible. Drinks fantastic. Service perfect.

I’ve been on the search for GOOD mexican food in this country and i’ve finally found this gem. Went here today and honestly my mexican cravings have been fulfilled. the vibes, the food, the service all in one place. The food was great, I would probably skip out on the nachos next time because it was really filling but also had the taco platter (shareable) and it was more than enough for two people. I preferred the meat tacos over the chicken but the chicken was still as good. Our main server was Carlos who went above and beyond from his kindness to recommendations, and just being quick and attentive also every one else kept coming to check if we were good. We were stuffed and didn’t get a chance to try the desserts but I took a peak and saw some good things that I will definitely try next time. Also they have the classic jarritos drink (mandarin, mango and guava are my favs) Also check out the mexican shop next store to find some mexican snacks and sauces that are hard to find in the city. The tamarind chilli sweets are nice! Will definitely be back!

After Googling 'London's best Mexican restaurant', it did not disappoint. I've not had food or atmosphere this authentic since I was actually in Mexico!

Daniel, a total idol, a giant. Impeccable recommendations and attention For more people like him

Daniel's service was very good.

Tremendously surprised with this place, I really felt the flavor and energy of Mexico. I totally recommend and thank Daniel for taking such excellent care of us. An affectionate greeting from Argentina. Thank you.

Authentic Mexican, real deal with tip top drinks

Not the best Mexican food I’ve had but acceptable. The tres leches cake was phenomenal. Staff were really friendly and attentive, especially since there was a large group of us. I give the main 3 stars and the dessert 5 stars.

Thank you so much, especially to Daniel who made our stay incredible - delicious Mexican food, we felt at home.

Service was SO FRIENDLY! Food was the best Mexican I’ve had in Europe - haven’t had Mexican food this good since I was actually in Mexico. Atmosphere was amazing too, music not too loud, fitting, tables were spaced nicely. Love it!!!!

Many thanks to Daniel who took great care of us.

Mexican food 100% attention and quality

Wow what an experience. The only real Mexican food I’ve had in london. Everything was fresh with high quality ingredients and tasted super authentic. Would come again

Food and margaritas were delicious. The menu has some very unusual and wonderful things you won't find at a typical Mexican restaurant. Service was great at first but became very inattentive later. We ended up skipping desert because they ignored us for nearly 20 minutes after giving us the desert menu.

Excellent food, portions, presentation. But overpriced for what you get.

Food was ok, lacking salt the waiters and waitress were too keen and constantly kept asking if we needed anything, and we weren't even finished and they asking if we've finished and can they take the plates and cutlery. Very off-putting, and the service was too fast. Good came out too fast, waiters over bearing. No sooner had we finished out mains, they brought the dessert menu out. I won't be going back there again.

amazing cocktails and amazing food, will deffo be coming back! Adriana and J.Carlos were amazing servers and very very friendly! I recommend the ginger margarita

Food was excellent, strongly recommend the volcano special dish with chicken and beef. the churros and crepe dessert were also delicious. Daniel was very helpful and friendly! I would totally recommend!

One of my favourite Mexican places. Amazing margaritas and food. There is a small Mexican grocery stores tucked away, which is worth a visit too,

We had a fantastic meal last night, the Chrozio nachos were generous and delicious, the enchiladas were packed with chicken and fabulous sauce. But there were negatives, our two seat table was in an unfortunate spot where staff and guest were constantly rushing / brushing past which took away slightly from the enjoyment of our meal and also the service to my surprise was very disjointed and at times even poor. Despite having an abundance of staff on hand they seems to constantly be rushing about in a disorganised fashion, twice my wife’s margarita glass was just taken from in front of her, she wasn’t asked if she wanted another and the second time she hadn’t even finished her drink. We will return and give this place another chance but only as the food was so good, just a shame about the service which I was still charged 12% for!

The service was very bad, the waiters were unprofessional, and they made us get up from the table.”

Daniel was super nice and helpful. He was very accommodating and super attentive. Definitely recommend this restaurant.

Wow! This place really hits the spot. First time for myself trying Mexican food, and it did not disappoint, I would definitely recommend the restaurant. I would also like to say the staff were really wonderful and helpful. I would 100% recommend this restaurant to anyone

Absolutely amazing food and service! Nicole was very engaging and kind.

Great authentic Mexican food! Best place in London without a doubt! Been there several times and always a fantastic experience!

Fantastic as always! Adriana and Carlos were great.

Generally bland food and loud music. Reasonable prices for quantities though.

Daniel was one of the waiters who hosted our table, and he made our experience truly special. He recommended several dishes that he thought we would enjoy and he was absolutely right! His suggestions were extraordinary. On top of that, he was incredibly kind and attentive throughout our visit. It was our birthday, and thanks to Daniel, it turned out to be a really wonderful celebration. I truly appreciate hardworking and genuinely nice people like him he definitely deserves recognition!

We went to celebrate our birthday at the restaurant and Daniel served us, he gave us very good service and I will definitely return to the restaurant because of the experience he gave us, definitely one of the best workers they have in the restaurant. Thank you so much

Well, the truth is, we were 4 people today and the atmosphere was excellent, Daniel attended us and was super fast and kind in everything 👍🏾 The truth would return you there😁

It was our first time at the restaurant.The food was great and our server (Daniel) was very friendly and provided amazing service. Super recommended!

I had dinner yesterday here it is my favorite Mexican restaurants, and once again, it did not disappoint. The food is incredibly fresh and has a delicate, refined taste. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and the staff is attentive and highly professional. I usually come here with friends who truly appreciate good food, because this place absolutely deserves to be discovered and enjoyed. As always, I left completely satisfied, and the price for what we ate was more than fair. Highly recommended! Thank you so much!!😍😍🤩🤩

We were attended to by Daniel, an incredible person, his warmth and joy completely improved our day.

Very good service, Andy was phenomenal.

Daniel attended us, his service was very welcoming. Excellent person, very helpful and attentive to every detail

We enjoyed the delicious food and the atmosphere on a special day for us with friends and family. Adriana and Marvin were very kind to us and very helpful and attentive to details. Thank you very much for serving us on our special day. 😁🇲🇽🌮

Highly recommended if you come to London. Daniel attended us, very pleasant and fun.

The food was bad all four of us left the mains after 1/2 bites we all feeling a upset stomach the chef who made this food is not doing a good job. Went into the men's toilet oh my God there was loads of flies inside the men's cubicle and the kitchen is right opposite the toilets. I can't believe how low there hygenie levels are .

I was taken here for the first time by a Mexican friend who said it was the best Mexican food she'd had outside of Mexico. I've been a couple of times now, Airways had an excellent meal and enjoyed the fight of tequila

Fav place for Mexican food in London!

Unfortunately I would not recommend the vegan food, which was bad. Every option we chose (tostadas, enchiladas and panucho) had the same weird jackfruit mix despite it not being mentioned on the menu ( note the vegan menu on the website doesn’t exist in the restaurant). service extremely slow and food still arrived cold so we had to send it back. A shame as we had heard great things!

My friends and I popped in here for a quick meal before going for an event locally, I wish we could have stayed longer. The waiter explained the menu to us and we decided on sharing tacos as we could have a choice of fillings. The food was delicious and the drinks were lovely and refreshing, I didn't really want to leave! I will definitely return soon.

Absolutely amazing experience! Adriana and Luis provided exceptional service—friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming!! The food was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The atmosphere was vibrant yet cozy, making it the perfect spot for a great night out. Highly recommend! Make sure to try the watermelon margarita 🍹

Stunning food, lovely and hot, special song for my son's birthday pudding also delicious will be back! 140 all in 3 courses, bottle of wine and 4 additional drinks. 3 people my son had 2 courses bargain

We ate very well. Daniel received us like kings. He was at the top!

What an amazing night! We were looked after soo well by Daniel! He recommended very good dishes for us to have a truly fantastical experience! The tamarind margarita was incredible! Thank you so much! Best birthday ever! ❤️

It was absolutely amazing! Daniel made our evening very special! Thank you!

I've worked in alot of Latin restaurants in Australia and the UK and I was blown away by this, it felt like stepping into Mexico, great staff and awesome food and drink.

Amazing Mexican food Mole is unreal

Amazing food and atmosphere!! Daniel was amazing!!! Ciro has the best birthday ever!! We will definitely be back!!! We can’t wait to come back

Amazing food, service and atmosphere! The staff are absolutely lovely and made sure we were topped up and looked after. Adriana gave us amazing recommendations. Would highly recommend the Pastel 3 leches for dessert. Most definitely will be coming back here. Thank you so much!!

We loved it! The molcajete was delicious. I felt at home 🇲🇽 and the salsa macha really stings. Thank you Daniel for the good service! We will return! Of course I recommend it but you need to make a reservation! Delicious authentic food. Daniel took very good care of us and had very good recommendations. The beef molcajete is delicious 😋 Will definitely be back!

my wife and I visited Metizo and it was great! Food and environment gave an authentic mexican feeling. The food was actually prepared like mexican food. Daniel was hands down the best table server in the restaurant. He interacted and accommodated everything minor thing throughout the night. Metizo is recommended and ask for Daniel

Daniel made sure we knew what to order as it was our first time there and didn’t disappoint, would highly recommend. Loved the Taco Tray and flautas :))

Daniel was incredible. So helpful and kind.

Very unpleasant experience, if I could I would give it a 0. Despite being a Mexican food restaurant, ironically, if you are one, they discriminate against you. That perception was given to me by the person who received us because of his rictus and his arguments like “the whole place is reserved” when obviously that was not the case and if you want to stay they condition you to only “you have one hour to eat” so I do not recommend it.

We had the pleasure of dining here for iftar a couple of weeks ago, and it was a very fun dining experience. From the moment we arrived, the staff were incredibly welcoming and went above and beyond to assist us with our menu choices. The food was outstanding—we ordered the taco tray, which was absolutely delicious, and the dessert was even better! The restaurant is very lively and a great way to spend the weekend with friends

Great service from Daniel and amazing food!

Great place. Amazing service by Daniel.

Adriana was very kind and helped us choose our dishes ❤️ she is very nice And the food is very very good

Adriana provided an amazing service, she was very attentive and always ready to help, Food was delicious, I like a the variety of margaritas they have !

Told by a Mexican that I was with that the food was the real deal.

The food was really authentic just like in Mexico, we had nachos between two and it was huge, enough for 4 people I think. The tamales was good, and tacos were very nice too. I would definitely come back. Service was a bit slow, but they were busy and downstairs could do with some better lighting. The store next door was nice to buy some Mexican goodies!

Authentic Mexican food and unique margaritas!! Definitely a place to book ahead of time for a table. Service is good as well

Here’s a review: The food was so good that I forgot to take a photo!! An easy 5/5

Lot bread the best!! Daniel who served us was incredible.

Daniel & Roger were fantastic today for our anniversary thank you so much for helping us enjoy our mile stone even more

Food was incredible, some sauces/flavours reminiscent of a previous trip to Mexico. Great varied menu. My gluten intolerant partner had plenty of choice. Be warned that corn wraps and wheat wraps aren’t separated when kept with their thermal sleeve. Was given a shot of a frozen cocktail to try at the end, it was sensational so would love to return to have it! Staff were nice (bit eccentric)

Terrible service! This place doesn't represent Mexico!

Excellent service and fantastic Mezcal Margaritas. 100% recommend these. Service was really friendly & attentive, despite it being super busy on a Wednesday. We shared tamales costeños for starters alongside the tray of 4 salsas. I recommend everyone get the salsas to accompany their meals. Tamales were good if slightly dense. For mains we had Pollo Ticul and Chiles Rellenos with rice & beans, and shared the cebollitas, which was delicious. The portions are very generous so come with an empty stomach! Tortillas were given warmed up on the side too. It can be quite dry so the additional sauces were welcomed, and I would have liked a bit more heat in mine. Overall the food was very good & I cannot wait to come back again. It can get quite noisy but apart from that, ambiance is fine.

Excellent, great service. We'll definitely be back!

Food is average. The roasted pork taco was super dry with the tiniest bit of sauce. One of the chicken dish we ordered were so dry we couldnt even finish

Really special actual Mexican menu (not tex mex). There are plenty of Mexican places now in London, yet this is different with a massive American style menu. Some things like chilli relenos, and queso fundito which I have never seen on a menu in the UK. We ordered the quesi which might have been too big for two people to share, it came with 6 tortillas so would suggest 4+ people share. We got the taco sharing board for two, the el pastor and peppers were our favourite. I would definitely come back to try the main courses. We each got a glass of horchata which tasted fresh. Service was slow however. On a Saturday lunch it was reservation only. We paid £60 for two people.

What a smashing place! There was a great atmosphere as soon as we walked in, attentive and friendly service and wow what a menu!!! I had a cucumber margarita and cactus salad and I enjoyed every sip and bite! My mom loved her Chicken Tinga Tacos! I would return in a heartbeat and bring more friends along next time! Only a 6 minute walk from Euston - absolute winner! There is an authentic Mexican deli next door too, I could spend hours going to both!

Mestizo Mestizo Mestizo, it did not disappoint at all. Had heard about this restaurant many times before, and with my love of Mexican food (authentic Mexican food may I add), I decided to visit with a friends to celebrate my friends birthday. The service, the food, the cocktails (with the caramel chilli lollipop & Watermelon chilli lollipop - Yes I had 2) were amazing! The dessert wow wow wow, on par with the food which is rare for most restaurants. Atmosphere loved it 10/10! Planning next visit already with another group :-)

This is probably the most authentic Mexican restaurant I have visited in London. Its Sunday buffet menu is pretty good, if you want to sample a selection of mexican dishes and tacos. The sessert selection is now only one, and this could be better.

We have come here plenty of times. It is always an absolute pleasure to come here. Being from Mexico, it always gives me a taste from home. Truly a home away from home. Adriana, Alejandro, Cesar and Marvin really took care of us and made sure we had the best evening celebrating my birthday

Everything was amazing the service so much friendly the staff very professional (Richard), I recommend for birthday celebration !!!! Tacos tacos tacos 🌮 delicious!!!

Thank you Richard for servicing good food

Richard is super friendly, good service and the food is incredible

Food was delicious, adriana was a brilliant server, upstairs vibes excellent (better than downstairs)

Delicious food and fabulous service. Adriana was a wonderful waiter, so friendly, knowledgeable and welcoming and gave great advice when we asked for it. Thank you Adriana.
