Just visited Wahaca in Islington and was appalled by both the food and the quality of service. I asked if I was able to have a chicken burrito without the black beans as I have a food intolerance. I was told that it would be fine to remove this from the meal. However when I received the burrito they had removed all of the fillings other than the chicken and rice. Dissatisfied, I queried the filling with the waitress where she told me I was wrong, all fillings were included, despite me opening the wrap and showing her the evident lack of cheese and salsa and the fact I had the same burrito two weeks previously and it had tasted completely different. My friends, having tried said dish, concurred that it was missing vital ingredients listed on the menu. After repeatedly requesting a replacement meal and never being given an apology, I was offered an alternative meal. Only when it arrived it was covered in black beans - which I cannot eat!
Absolutely ridiculous. I have always been a fan of Wahaca but am incredibly disappointed. read more
