Mamasita

BARCHICK SAYS

Almost hidden, this would be an easy spot to miss if it wasn’t for the throng of people queuing up outside. Man up, if you want a table here the chances are that you’re going to have to queue. It’ll be worth it when you discover the ultimate Mexican experience with the addition of terrariums and vinyl records, right?

Pinch a seat at the bar for views of the ridiculously well stocked back-bar. The sheer quantity of Tequilas will blow your mind and then your budget, but whatevs. Imagine any tequila cocktail and these guys will whip it up, no sweat. Want beer? Check out the seriously decent Mexican range or try a Michelada (with beer, lime juice, a dash of tomato juice and an array of spices), a really common drink in Latin America, served in a chilled, salt-rimmed glass, it’s bang on.

If you don’t intend on eating here, you probably will anyway. The food is so deliciously tempting that you won’t be able to resist for long, we couldn’t. Try the street-style chargrilled corn on the cob with queso, chipotle, mayo and lime juice. Amor!
