Wahaca Review

Brace for queues for the fab-value Mexican street market food at chef Thomasina Mier's brightly-colored Covent Garden favorite. Concrete walls, bench seats, and green ceiling slats make for brisk and buzzy basement surrounds, but it's the cheap-as-chips, ethically and sustainably-sourced £3.95-£7.95 Mexican tacos, enchiladas, quesadillas, taquitos, and burritos that pull in the cost-consious, studenty, and touristy crowds. A £19.95 spread for two hungry honchos will produce a feast of broad bean quesadillas, pork pibil tacos, slaw, chicken taquitas with green rice, tostadas, black beans, and guacamole, but note that it is often heaving by 6:30 pm.
