Mexican food in London

Can anyone recommend me places to have Mexican food in London. I've had a mexican food craze this past couple of weeks.

I love the refried beans!

Well there’s the Wahaca chain which does reliably good food and other chains like Las Iguanas (not quite so good in my opinion). There are lots of independent Mexican places but they tend to be stand alone. Maybe filter by area on Trip Advisor for reviews.

Café Pacifico, Covent Garden is excellent. Gets very busy - so booking recommended.

I've done both of these chains. I wanted more stand alone restaurants

La Chingada (they have 3 locations) is the best casual mexican I’ve tried. If you’re feeling spendy KOL is amazing and has a michelin star. Bodega Negra is fun if you want a party atmosphere. El Pastor isn’t bad. Mestizo in Chelsea I also like.

Barrio is you want casual and vibrant. Palador if you want something more chic and fancy.

Santo Remedio London Bridge is quite good, the Shoreditch one isn't quite so good.

Zapote in Shoreditch is EXCELLENT however a little pricy.
