Harden's survey result
Summary
Celebrating its 10th anniversary this year, this popular Mexican outfit from Edson and Natalie Diaz-Fuentes now has three sites, each with a different speciality: London Bridge, with an asador for grilling over a wood fire; Shoreditch, a smaller taqueria; and Marylebone, the latest addition, a casona serving regional dishes plus a cantina mezcal & tequila bar.
Summary
A “very good Mexican near Tower Bridge”, which has a more café-style spin-off in Shoreditch. Both serve a selection of tacos, tostados and quesadillas and both make a feature of bottomless brunch, but at the original there’s also regional dishes, like sea bass cooked over a wood-fire grill and Beef Short Rib with Oaxacan Mole.
Summary
“Proper home-made nachos” backed up by “awesome margaritas” top the “short but focused menu” at Edson & Natalie Diaz-Fuentes’s authentic Mexican cantina in Bermondsey (with an offshoot in Shoreditch). Top Tip – “the reasonably priced pre-theatre menu is perfect before going to the Bridge Theatre”.
Summary
Edson and Natalie Diaz-Fuentes’s authentic cuisine – washed down with delicious margaritas – wins consistently high ratings, if from a small fan club, for their Bermondsey restaurant. No feedback on their newer cafe in Shoreditch – a return to the area where they began their career in the capital seven years ago.
