secretlondon visited one Saturday afternoon in May 2009. I had a chimichanga with spiced chicken (£9) photo which was a deep fried stuffed tortilla with rice and salad. They had a very poor selection of soft drinks — just mainstream fizzy drinks or some fruit juices. I had a glass of diet coke (£1.40). The food arrived very quickly (too quickly?) which suggests it was mostly pre-prepared. It was 5 to 10 minutes max from ordering to being on my table. I heard a 'beep' about a minute before it arrived which might have been a microwave. The rice was suspiciously uniformly yellow and the chimichanga unexciting. The salsa wasn't particularly hot and I overheard a waiter tell another table that they've toned down the spice in the food after complaints.
There is outside seating so I presume you could smoke if you wanted to. I suspect this place is known for its booze not its authenticity.
Accessibility: There are two small ledges to negotiate and a little ramp from street level. However the toilet looks fully accessible with bars, alarms, braille etc.
