Terribly disappointed! Being Mexican I was quite excited to take my friends to try some real Mexican food, Wahaca’s food is OK-ish, not the best but equally not the worst, just flat nothing special. The tostadas where tasteless and the esquites tasted like Indian food. The decoration feels cheap and lacks originality. The staff was terrible. I didn’t feel welcome at all. I won’t go back and I wouldn’t recommend it.
WOW, what an amazzzing place!! A fantastic atmosphere that is both buzzy and alive, but with such relaxed staff and lovely decor its also very chilled and a great place to just sit sipping on a cocktail and chat away...
Then there's the exquisite mexican food, that is so exciting and fresh with incredible flavours. The Chicken Burrito is one of my faves, its spicy,zingy, fresh and served with a nice big pile of Nachos and Salsa, leaving you full and satisfied with just enough room for the amazing spicy infused rich,creamy,chocolate ice cream or the crispy sweet churros doughnuts with dark chocolate sauce..YUM!! Its great value for money and will leave you wanting more! Be warned, it's addictive.!
If you are Mexican or you would like to know what authentic Mexican food tastes like? Then please do NOT go to Wahaca.
It is the most disappointing experience ever! The food is really bad (even if you were looking for a Tex-Mex type of food).
What is more frustrating is that these guys using the name of Mexico to position themselves as a Mexican-food restaurant.
Please think twice before spending your money in a restaurant like this.
Delicious! Authentic Mexican food in a really fun environment.
The margaritas are to die for and the salsa and guacamole are fabulous. Every dish I have ever had at this place has been wonderful (and we have been there quite a few times).
The churros dipped in chocolate are a decadent dessert to finish off a wonderful meal there. Only downside is that they don't take reservations and there is usually a queue every night and especially on weekends.
Best idea is to get someone by early in the evening to put your name on the list and then either get drinks at the bar or head to a pub nearby and come back to check occasionally.
Looking forward to more wonderful Wahaca meals to come.
Really tasty and authentic food, at reasonable prices and a good selection of drinks.
Good for families, too. Enjoying growing chilli plants from the free seeds !
i went there for my birthday recently and they are really child friendly. I had to stand onto the chair and everyone was singing happy birthday.
It was so cringe. I go there all the time with my dad but they should make a service here you can call up and book a table.
I have just been to Wahaca for the first time today. I went to their restaurant in the Westfield and I am still bloated from their food. The service was slow and unfriendly. In particular, the restaurant manager was rude and made us wait for a table, when half the restaurant was empty. We were promptly told that the food would come in the order it came out of the kitchen, which meant that some people got their dishes while everyone else had to wait. Main courses came before starters and it was an overall confusing experience. The chorizo and potato dish was particularly revolting. The margaritas were so sweet that I thought I was having a desert wine.
In conclusion, in addition to its appauling food, the cynicism with which this place has been put together, the faux marketing and lack of any Mexican authenticity makes Wahaca nothing but a ploy to take money from people who know no better.
This restaurant is the best Mexican I been to it is brillant. All the food is lovely and fresh always boiling hot.
It is also very well priced, service is perfect too. I can't fault this restaurant at all. It is all fresh, local cooked food!
I would recommend any one to go there. You got to try the Guacamole!!!
