   Server was helpful at beginning but seemed distracted when asked where our food was. Some food came out on time and others took far too long

   The food was excellent and creative, reminding us of an upscale Mexican restaurant back in our hometown of Austin, Texas! The atmosphere was fun and friendly, and the service was brisk, making it a perfect pre-theatre choice.

   Paulina did a great job and the main course was good. The Tiramisu was terrible and just doused in sugar syrup - no coffee or cocoa flavour avoid for dessert. Fab thing is the Wahaca for One. Pricey but good.

   Had a lovely birthday celebratory meal before going to the theatre, my only complaint was when offered the complimentary churros I asked if we could have a little breather before they were brought over and was told they were too busy to hold off on the dessert (having been given a pick of the table we sat at because it was quiet) so it was have them then or not at all. After they brought the churros over my husband then ordered a dessert as he doesn’t like churros, so really probably didn’t get rid of us any quicker. But your food so nice it hasn’t put me off returning to Wahaca just might not go to the Covent Garden one again.

   It's been a while since we last went to a Wahaca restaurant due to being unlucky with queues when visiting London, but ate here now that it's possible to book a table. Food and service were both excellent and overall decent value particularly for such a tourist heavy location and recent inflationary pressures.

    Very disappointing. Service was slow and terrible. Waited for ages to get drinks and even menus. They could not accommodate an intolerance well so had to eat from the kids menu. Just poor all around.
