We had dinner at Wahaca Southbank with our two young girls, and Ruben could not have been more entertaining or attentive. He went above and beyond to make our experience special, from the excellent food service and cocktail recommendations to the custom-made non-alcoholic drink for our daughter—just so she could match “mummy and daddy.” The food was fantastic, and the service was truly top-tier. Thank you, Ruben, for making our evening so engaging and fun! Highly recommend!

If you sit on the ground floor by the entrance, be mindful that the door is constantly opened by customers, who then wait their turn to be seated with the door wide open... it's winter and freezing outside, and I like to be eating my food in the warmth, not with an ice breeze from the North Pole!

⭐️“We walked in for a quick bite and walked out as taco experts.”⭐️ 1/365 – Wahaca London Southbank It’s a rainy day. The first day of the year spent in a metropolis. The metropolis in question is London—where a night of rain transforms into a tangle of lights, shadows, and reflections, as if stepping into an oil pastel painting, one of those Dutch masterpieces. The city is alive; those who didn’t exhaust themselves celebrating the night before are out on the streets, taking advantage of the still-sleepy avenues to snap touristy photos—without the tourists. Hunger strikes, and the colorful windows of Wahaca, their hues intensified by the rain’s reflections, act as the perfect advertisement. Climbing the stairs, the darkness and emptiness of the restaurant’s exterior seating area almost convince you to turn back—there must be better places nearby. But if, like me, you choose to ignore that fleeting doubt and push forward, you’ll be greeted by a captivating wave of spices. The lights are dim, the staff is warm and welcoming, letting you choose your own table. Service is fast; within moments, the menu is in your hands, and your drink order is taken. We’re not too hungry, so we settle on tacos. The waiter advises ordering at least three since they’re quite small. He gestures toward the counter, where freshly prepared tacos are being plated. As I follow his finger, the tacos—perfectly arranged—seem to glow under the lights. I can almost hear a drumroll, like a scene straight out of The Fairly OddParents. Even with my nearsighted vision, the presentation is a solid 10/10. We order Ancho Mushroom and Gringas Beef. The latter catches my attention—its name feels Brazilian, yet somehow girly, matching my mood perfectly. As we chat, surrounded by the background sizzle of frying oil, our tacos arrive. The plating is simple, contrasting with the vibrant colors of the dish. Gringas Beef is the first to land on the table. A playful mix of bold flavors with a citrusy kick—unexpected yet intriguing. The balance of coriander, lime, and the tender beef creates an exciting contrast, like a melody with a surprising key change. 7/10—a touch more juiciness and spice would have elevated it. But the real reason for the 7? It wouldn’t be fair to the tacos we ordered next. Because, of course, we couldn’t stop at just two. We walked in for a quick bite and walked out as taco experts. Our second choice? Ancho Mushroom. A bold explosion of greens and purples. I loved the contrast of the raw mushrooms, the sweetness and crunch of the beetroot chip on top, all tied together by an avocado sauce. 9/10. And the last taco? No spoilers, but let’s just say we had to order a second round. It was the Buttermilk Chicken Taco, a recommendation straight from our waitress—whom we now trusted completely. The chicken was fried to perfection, with an almost sacred balance between spice, the crisp freshness of the slaw, and the tang of pickled red onions. Beautifully plated, once again. If you're looking for a flavorful trip with no strings attached, blending the spices of the East with the portions of the West, Wahaca is the perfect place. Xoxo, Critic Girl

Built from shipping containers placed on a walkway of the QEH and with good views over the river, this branch of Wahaca is, in my view, completely different from any other. There are also a lot of outdoor tables. They've even stopped trying to push their "scan a QR code to pay", which never works.

Lovely atmosphere, food, and service as always (been going to this branch for 10 years now). Our waitress, Carlota, was especially good with our dietary needs. Diligent when taking our orders, and then really accommodating when a dish was unexpectedly an issue for a food intolerance of a member of our party. I really appreciated how this was handled (with speed, care, and no fuss). Looking forward to my next time eating here :)

Exceptional Experience at Wahaca Southbank! I never usually write Google reviews, but I just had to after my visit to Wahaca Southbank. Everything about this place was exceptional! The staff were incredibly friendly, attentive, and made us feel so welcome from the moment we walked in. Their warmth and professionalism truly stood out. The food was absolutely amazing – every dish was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly executed. You can tell there’s real passion in the kitchen. The atmosphere was vibrant and inviting, with a great buzz that added to the overall experience. The unique setting along the Southbank just made it even more special. If you're looking for great food, a lively ambiance, and fantastic service, Wahaca Southbank is the place to go. Highly recommend – can't wait to return!

I had been meaning to visit Wahaca for a while, unable to get a table at the branch near to where we were staying we took a glorious walk across the river to Southbank how glad I am we did. From the moment we set foot in the place the service was impeccable, lovely location, great views across the Thames. Went with the set menu to try a range of dishes - everything amazing, lots of little plates. The vegetables especially were amazing. Looking forward to my next visit.

Ruben helped me find the most similar mex dish I long for from California Mexican food. It was late night after a performance at the Queen Elizabeth Hall and he was so welcoming and recommended the pork belly with tortillas. I was almost transported to San Diego authentic Mexican food - still need a cheese enchilada but overall great relaxing dinner and I appreciated Ruben’s cheerful competent service :)))

You know what you're getting with Wahaca. Mexican based good with a modern British twist. This is not the best Wahaca though. Service was good but we were in a dark corner, so dark we couldn't see what we were eating. Unable to use the toilets as they were blocked all the time we were there and hand dryers weren't working

Great location and quite busy as expected (South Bank) I was very disappointed with the lukewarm chips and cold onion rings although the steak looked good but never got that far before it was returned to be replaced, and unfortunately the replacement was no better. Think the steak knife was an original from the day it opened. Clearly the food (original and replacement) had been left waiting before it could be served by any of the 4 waiters who were totally rushed off their feet. Highlight of a great day spoilt

Racist treatment and denied entry. Went to have a Thursday night beer and listen to some music. I was met by some racist bouncers (black) who were rude and unprofessional. I asked what music was played and was asked why? I quickly realised that the tone and demeanour was suspicious. I said to the bouncer it's a simply question no need to be rude. The bouncer then told me its Mexican and I can't come in as its a private work party but I watched several white people enter without question and who definitely did not come for a work party. I am surprised that after seeing other reviews stating similar experiences that this place still has a licence.
