Housed in eight recycled shipping containers arranged on two overhanging levels alongside the Southbank Centre, Wahaca Southbank serves up their award-winning Mexican street food with fantastic views of life on the Thames floating by.
You can also get the taste of Mexico to go with Wahaca's takeaway burritos and salads available from the Mexican Street Kitchen truck parked up alongside the river.
At Wahaca, you don't need to book either. Staff always keep unreserved tables spare.

Day of the Dead
Day of the Dead, or Día de los Muertos, is a major event in the Mexican calendar and every year Wahaca goes all out to show off the joyful and colourful atmosphere that makes this such a popular celebration. The restaurant takes on an especially festive look, transformed with themed decorations and striking altars inspired by traditional ofrendas - colourful displays created in homes across Mexico to honour and remember loved ones.
To toast the occasion, a limited-edition Blood Orange & Hibiscus Margarita (£10.95) will be available throughout the festivities, shaken with fresh lime, aquafaba and blanco tequila for the perfect balance of sweetness and spice.
