Mezcal Cantina - Hackney

Although it was a busy Friday night, the service at this restaurant was incredibly slow. We ordered the nachos, but the first serving was cold and the cheese was not melted. After politely asking for another serving, we encountered reluctance from the waiter who explained that the restaurant was busy and they were working as quickly as possible. After some back and forth, we received a second serving of nachos that was marginally better but still below average. The tacos were dry and poorly assembled, falling apart as we tried to eat them. I would recommend avoiding the fish and prawn tacos. When we asked for the bill, another server inquired about our experience. After explaining our disappointment, the server apologized but did not offer any discount on the bill. Overall, we were extremely unimpressed and will not be returning to this restaurant.

The authentic Mexican food at this Dalston restaurant is fantastic. The service is excellent and the prices are quite fair.

This is the worst takeaway I 've ever had. If anyone thinks that 12.70 is an appropriate amount to pay for 3 tiny corn tortillas and a tupperware of sloppy roast veg (this apparently is a 'fajita ')then this is your place. Not only that, but after a complaint and a reorder, the exact same bland and incomplete order arrived. Appalling. Genuinely the worst takeaway i have ever had in my entire life.

Great atmosphere where you get to forget for a night that you are in London! We loved the cocktails made by Elisabeth who is the lovely owner of this little and cozy mexican bar and restaurant! We will definitely come back to try the rest of the delicious looking cocktail, food menu and mezcal of course! :
