Having come from California, was I surprised to have one of the most delicious vegetarian Mexican…read moremeals ever in London, of all places? Yes. Would I come back? In a heartbeat! Would I recommend it? Definitely. The plantain, butternut squash, and mushroom tacos were all very unique, flavorful, and beautiful, and the sweet potato burrito was delicious and very filling. The seasoning was all on point, the right mix of savory, smoky, and spicy. The caramel pecan brownie was also very decadent and the perfect way to end the meal! The service felt a little off the night we visited only because there was a mix-up in who was supposed to be serving our table, but once our order was in the food came quickly and the bill was easy to pay. I also found it great that they have specific vegan and vegetarian menus, which makes ordering for people with these dietary requirements very straightforward. We dined on a weekend evening when Canary Wharf is much less busy, so although we had a reservation we probably didn't need one.

If you have been to California, you'll be extremely disappointed by these presumably "Real…read moreCalifornia Burritos and Tacos". I had a medium grilled chicken burrito which was quite small. I would say that the large version is probably the regular US size. There wasn't much meat inside, the cilantro rice was bland and the black beans not particularly well cooked. I chose the Salsa Verde but I got just a splash and it wasn't possible to taste it.

My friend and I were in the area and looking for a cheap bite to eat before going separate ways. As…read moreI don't know Canary wharf well, it was hard to find. FYI, it's in the station beside platform 3&4. FOOD: Simple and delicious. My american friend talked me into going for the naked burrito (aka a burrito bowl ~ less messy, slightly less carb). Feeling ambitious, I ordered the large size with grilled chicken. The taste was spot on with american burritos. My friend agreed as well. She had the Carnitas (braised / slow cooked pork) with which she'll judge whether a taco place is worthy of her American palette. Joking, but she really enjoyed. ATMOSPHERE: At 8:30p.m. (30 mins before closing) people were still coming in and ordering. It's a moderately busy restaurant. Decor is modern and nice too. Service: It's a fast food queue. Fast and efficient.

We were strolling through the Southbank Centre, and noticed Wahaca's Mexican Street Kitchen had a…read moremini food truck on the strip. We had already had dinner plans, but we needed just a little bite to carry us through the day. We saw a sign advertising churros, and can you really say no the churros? The staff were really sweet, when we went to order our churros, they advised us that the churros come with either a chocolate sauce or a dulce de leche sauce. Me being my greedy self, I asked if I can have both....and I got it :) Delicious as expected and the warmed sauce ofcourse was everything. I did see they had a pretty decent menu, with options of a burrito, rice box, and salads, so I will definitely have to explore that next time I'm in town

Pretty nice breakfast/brunch spot offering a wide array of American classics. I ordered The All…read moreAmerican (16.75 GBP), which was a typical combo of pancakes, bacon, homestyle potatoes, a sausage, and two fried eggs. It was rather plain/ordinary but certainly not bad. I have to say, the pancakes were a bit on the dry side though. Also, the eggs were sunny side up but didn't actually seem fried at all, as they were super soft without any crispiness. In addition, they didn't even add the slightest amount of seasoning on there - at least a few pepper flakes would have been nice (although there was pepper on the table, but still). The homestyle fries were well-cooked with a good crispiness though. The restaurant has a lower level with some seating as well as a larger upper level. It has a sort of old-timey kind of vibe, with wood panels along the walls and ceiling and a little performance stage in the back. It is conveniently located right next to the Canary Wharf tube station. My waitress was average friendliness and was only moderately attentive, as she never checked up on me during my meal. She also waited until I actually got my food to bring me my water. Overall, The Breakfast Club is a solid option for breakfast/brunch in Canary Wharf with pretty much any of the classics that you could want.

My quest for breakfast nearly turned into brunch due to my questionable navigation skills and…read more(shocker) rain. In my defense there are several rivers/canals I could be walking toward. I just kept finding the wrong one, but TBC made it worth the wait. For those seeking "a little more conversation", stop at the bar for the friendly experience you'd expect. Today I headed upstairs to the VIP Section. Unlike my wife who never saw a pancake she wanted to go home with, I like a menu with plenty of pancake choices. And bonus points if not too many are "exotic" such as cake disguised as compote-smothered confectioners-sugar-laced trendy-named items. Just get me some sort of flapjack with or without fruit. Bonus points if you have short and tall (long?) stacks. And double-bonus if you print "flapjack" on the menu. Enough about the pancakes (my wife is saying). She doesn't even like breakfast so don't listen to her (she'd skip if I weren't always dragging her out somewhere for it). Her loss. But just one more pancake point: I got the blueberry short stack. It wasn't epic but it was a solid +6-7. That works, given my earlier frou-frou comments. I couldn't tell and maybe the maple syrup was imported from Canada (eh), but we are spoilt with our Vermont supply. So no points gained/lost there. I didn't get any baked beans (yes because this was breakfast), but my bacon was tasty as were my two Americanos (aka coffees). If I had for some reason wanted pre-noon beans...I'm sure they would have been lovely, along with all the other varied menu choices I didn't have room to sample. Service was fast and efficient, and they endured my lingering into late-morning. By the time I left it had stopped raining. Will wonders never cease.

Totally full inside with many Hen and Stag parties and loud. Outside, again, many people sitting around drinking. Even though the staff were extremely busy, service at the bar was quick and friendly. Cocktails were being delivered in their scores with, of course, chasers. Everyone was having fun and it did overflow onto us. Everyone just chatted. It was a nice hour or two. Loved the place.

Food/drinks: This menu had lots of options. Pea dip appetizer was very tasty and made me forget about guacamole!

Very attentive to allergies/restrictions when I told them. Ambiance: It was fine; a typical restaurant.

Dinner here worked in a pinch, but I wouldn't go back…read more We ate during the Friday night rush, and it was busy. Understandably, service was slow. Overall, the food and drink were just not good. We ordered a plate of sharing nachos and the vegetarian jambalaya, and were completely underwhelmed by each dish. The portion of nachos is indeed meant to be shared, but unfortunately was almost all chips (which had a weird Dorito-like powder dusted on them, unlike the complimentary chips we received when we sat down. Plain chips would have been much more palatable.) and only the tiniest smattering of cheese, pico de gallo, guacamole, chili, and sour cream. Good nachos require balanced proportions.. and these were very unbalanced. The jambalaya was okay, definitely edible but nothing particularly appealing about it. The mojito we ordered was mostly just crushed ice - like a mound of it heaping out of the glass. If I wanted a sno-cone, I would have ordered one. Very weak drink, made annoying by the huge mound of ice. The interior of the restaurant is very cute, and the bathroom (the ladies' room, anyway) was bright, colorful and clean. But because I become a repeat customer based more on the food than the atmosphere, I won't be coming back.

My cousin and I debated whether to give this place a rating of two stars or not rate it at all. I…read moredon't like giving low ratings as every business deserves a chance but this time, it wasn't just me. Situated before the entrance of the O2, next to cafe rouge, is this Mexican/Cuban restaurant. Now, I've had plenty of South American food as I have South American relatives. What I know and what is served here is nowhere close. There is a wait, luckily we had only a five minutes wait as people seemed to prefer other restaurants nearby. What if it was busier than it was? I love it when food comes in no time but here, I wanted to send the food back. We ordered the 'Sweet chilli jam burger' and as per every advertisement, I expect the food to come out looking like the picture. This one somehow did but I cannot comprehend why the jam looked like gelatine, the bread too soft that is crumbles as one takes a bite and the chips slightly cold and not crispy enough. To top it all, the drinks came within 10 minutes as the food came within 5 minutes of ordering and the drinks (cocktails which are meant to contain alcohol), tasted of juice. I am not an alcoholic and don't like too much vodka or rum in my drink but I can definitely tell when there is too little! I didn't pay £8 for that... I wanted to rate this place due to the service. The staff were friendly and attentive-I guess that really matters? Sometimes a quick fix becomes a quick hole to the pocket. Not my cup of tea, or shall I say 'tasteless alcohol'. Taco Bell in the USA might be a better choice...
