    Since moving to London we have missed Latin American food immensely so when we found this nearby we…read morehad to stop. I won't lie, I was initially turned off by the outside look and we were first in the restaurant (empty restaurants are never a good sign); however, my original trepidation was immediately laid to rest when our waitress came. She was friendly and walked us through all our menu questions and provided some helpful suggestions and very quickly the restaurant filled up. The arepas were fantastic, cheese on top was melted perfection, and the tamales were bursting with flavor and the was moist and delicious. I would highly recommend a stop here, just make sure to bring cash.

The service is friendly, and feels genuine, and the ambiance is almost as if you were in Colombia! There's usually some Spanish football on the TV which adds to the authenticity of the restaurant. It's always full of Colombians, and other spanish speakers, which could be a little daunting for some, but it's evidence that they do a good job with the food! The empanadas taste great, and of course come with the great spicy salsa verde, super tasty. I ALWAYS go for the Bandeja Paisa, and I'm satisfied every time! The meat is good, although it can be a little over cooked at times, but not often. The rice, arepa, egg, beans and plantain are always cooked perfectly (I think they've had a lot of practice)!! The drinks choices are great, you can even order a Refajo (recommended) which is kinda like beer with Irn-Bru. Tastes great with all the meat on a Bandeja Paisa! They also have some great juices which you can have with milk or water. I usually get the Maracuja with water... refreshing! To say the prices for food are reasonable is a real understatement. £12 for Bandeja Paisa of this quality is awesome! If you're ever in Shepherds Bush, check this place out. Be warned, they close unusually early on Sundays, around 7pm.

While it may be a bit on the pricey side, the experience is undeniably worth every penny, especially if you're looking for a night of shared dishes, attentive service, and great atmosphere. the mood is perfect for an intimate dinner or a celebration with friends, as it was when i came here for my birthday! the guac was prepared on the table, and had a great freshness to it, but was not worth the money imo bc it tasted pretty ordinary to me. same for the antichuchos de pollo - they were so small and tasted like regular skewers to me - they had a nice smoky flavor, but nothing that couldn't be achieved at home easily. i liked the trio de maiz, which had many different types of maiz, and was presented beautifully! the dish was very fresh and almost nutty. also liked their take on patatas bravas, which was perfectly crispy and with a delicious creamy sauce. love love loved the tiradito de pez limon, which had the most melt in your mouth yellowtail crudo/sashimi. it was paired with an amazing slightly spicy green chili sauce, and overall flavors were phenomenal. the orange tobiko wasn't there though... the salmon was one of the best things i had that night - perfectly cooked and tender, melty and delicious! amazing flavor pairings, scrumptious overall! dessert was one of the highlights of the meal as well. the churros were citrusy and fried to perfection, and paired with a great sauce. my personal favorite was the passionfruit mango pavlova thing, which had such a bright tartness! everything was served on what looked like homemade pottery, so lovely! the price point seemed a little irrational for what we received, but everything was delicious, and the overall experience was amazing! highly recommend if you're feeling a bit posh or just want to treat yourself!

Amazonico is a high end rainforest themed restaurant that features Latin cuisine along with different types of sushi! As soon as you walk into this place it feels like you're fine dining in the middle of a rainforest! The servers were extremely friendly and helpful and there's even a bar/lounge area with a dj who plays 'elec-tropical', Latin American inspired music As for the food and drinks, we had an incredible experience! This restaurant is definitely on the pricier end but it is worth the visit for sure. For cocktails we tried a few different ones including the Guaivo with gin, watermelon and guava shrub, cardamom, lemon, pomegranate, Muyu Jasmine and soda! We also tried the Rainforest Old Fashioned and the PuMaiTai which came in a black panther cup! For food we tried the Chicken Tequeños and Wagyu beef empanadas and the chimichurri marinated skirt steak Overall the ambiance and experience of this place along with the delicious food made it a great spot to check out while visiting London! #Amazonico #rainforest #latinamericanfood #sushi #londonfood #foodblog #travelfoodie #cocktails #steak #tropical #londonrestaurants #cocktails #empanadas

Yet, we were sat at the very back of the restaurant. Once we were seated a waiter came after about 15 minutes and from there the good times started. The food choices and drinks were great. I wouldn't go back but it was a great experience but once was enough for us. There are ALOT of great expensive meals out here, service matters.

There is an upstairs restaurant serving a menu of south american street food and tapas, and downstairs is a bar and dancefloor. All is decorated with south american art on exposed brickwork, with red leather seating and low-lighting. It's the perfect ambience for group meals with friends, which also goes with the tapas formula. If you're after something more substantial then there are lots of main meals, and grilled meat, Argentinean style too. I have only been here for meals, but the bar downstairs has always been lively at the weekends. There is a very happy hour from 5-8 each day £4 cocktails and £10 bottles of wine.

Service good in the main, with the odd spell of slowness (I've never encountered ill-humoured service here though). The bar in the basement, so it's not ideal for anyone who needs help to get about or is in a wheelchair. Food is available upstairs at tables and is pretty good. Downstairs it's more 'finger food' but just as nice. Vivo is perfect of you want to avoid over crowded central London bars but still sample the vibe. UPDATE - As of 20 January, Vivo seems to have closed down.

My family and I ordered a seafood paella to share as well as several tapas dishes, all of which were decently sized. My favorite tapas was the grilled squid, just lightly drizzled with olive oil, pepper, and lemon. The grill on the squid was perfect, so the squid wasn't too rubbery at all. The mini barbecue ribs were also cooked well, but definitely weren't fall-off-the-bone tender. The seafood paella was served in a huge skillet, topped with lemon, prawns, mussels, then mixed with clams and peas and calamari. The rice was just the right amount of moist, while maintaining the al dente texture that makes paella so hearty. The saffron seasoning was perfect, and I loved the extra char on the rice from the edge of the skillet. All in all, the paella is a definite must-have, but the tapas can be hit or miss!
