Best 5 Mexican Restaurants in London

If you know your chimichanga from your burrito, your fajita from your taco and torta then you probably know as much about Mexican food as a large proportion of Londoners.

Mexican food has only gained in popularity in London over the past decades albeit exponentially especially since the millennium with vegans and street food lovers impacting pop culture with their budget tastes and conscious world view.

To be fair Mexican cuisine offers something for everyone with tasty meat and vegetarian dishes options for almost any dish preparation, spicy food and rich creamy dishes also being on the menu. Mexican makes perfect cuisine for sharing making it great for families and friends.

Tex-mex offers lots of favourites like burgers and fried chicken.

Most dishes come with lots of vegetables and many are served with rice making it a healthier choice than many fast food or street food options.
