Food, drink and atmosphere great!! �� well priced too
Another great place to celebrate with an amazing feast and friends. They have got happy hour till 7:00 pm and wow - a huge variety of meals and drinks!
Great Mexican restaurant on the main road! Fun interior, upbeat music and great choices of food! Service is great! However is can get very crowded and cramped. But that i guess adds to the fun!
Restaurante mexicano com bom ambiente para petiscar algo com Guacamole e beber umas Margaritas, após um dia longo a passear por Londres! Aproveite para ver a decoração na casa de banho.
Amongst the few places who have their kitchen open after 10 on Sunday nights in the Islington area, this place is a good spot if you’re hungry and would eat absolutely anything that comes your way.
A spacious outlet with the Mexican theme totally makes this place a great spot to hang around with friends at the Upper Street.The staff here is very polite and at your service as soon as you step foot into this place.
The menu is dominated by Mexican food as one would expect but also has a variety of other items,albeit with a Mexican touch(Try Garlic Bread with Cheese for one😍).The Fajitas are also very delicious as are the Tacos.The cocktails are very well stirred&shaken and you may not even realise that there’s alcohol in there.The bar has pretty much everything with the restaurant adding something on the house to make your experience even better.
Cost for two: £50 with alcohol
Ambience- Great
Outdoor Seating- Available
Food and Beverages- Excellent
Must Haves-Fajitas,Garlic Bread with Cheese
We went last night (7th August) for a quick bite. I was really impressed with the service. The waitress outside the front (we were seated in the patio/outside section) was really friendly and helpful. I ordered a starter portion of prawn tacos and the way in was prepared was not what I was expecting (not due to the kitchen's fault, just my expectation). I mentioned this to the waitress and I guess the manager (not 100% sure who the man was that I spoke to) and they kindly altered the dish for me so that I could enjoy it more! Above and beyond expectation. They also gave us complimentary drinks because of the inconvenience. I hope these guys are recognised, this is what true service is! Thank you :)
Love the ambience! Amazing food, definitely order the nachos! They do what seems like baker burritos not quite the fan, but you'll never taste better margaritas 🍸they're so good it's sinful! Always keep coming back for more
This place is really close to my work and had good ratings so I had to try it. It's a little pricy.. But the daily special is where it's at! Yummy beans, yummy rice, a drink, and a main dish . I will have to say my girlfriends and my favorite dish is the FLAMED GRILLED SIRLON STEAK . Their beans and rice go well together too, all getting washed down with a cocktail. Love it all!
Def going to come here again, as well as bringing the co-workers!
The meat was cooked perfectly, my friend ordered the t-bone steak and it was like butter. Just a perfect meal all over. The space is small, and doesn't smell very pleasant but the service and food is great.
Good fun restaurant to go to but be warned it can get quite squashed!! The food is plentiful and pretty good and the cocktails are also extensive. The service is a little slow at times as the restaurant is generally packed. Overall a good atmosphere and it will not break the bank balance.
Amazing amazing! real Mexican vibes inside. Decent priced burgers and fajitas. A crazy list of different cocktails made even more enjoyable with am happy hour during the week. Been many a time and will continue to go
I love this place! The food is delicious and good portions, I especially like the rack of ribs or the steak. Also this place has the best cocktails. The decor is great and it provides a fun environment. Situated in a great location if one wants to hit another bar or club.
I went their with friends ,I do not know how I feel about the place .
Starting from the starters we ordered nachos which were okay , one can not do much with the nachos . After that mains were supposed to arrive but they were bit late in that .
Service was just okay and our food was also not that great.
I don't think that i will be giving this place another chance.
This place is quite good if you want to have a big gathering or just want to celebrate a special occasion like a birthday. I had the nachos, fajitas and BBQ. The nachos were pretty good compared to my experiences at other restaurants and the quality of fajitas was acceptable. However, I would recommend you all to avoid the BBQ at all costs.
One of the places with perhaps the best Long Island Iced Tea in Angel, Desperados has the environment and ambiance of a proper Mexican joint in London. My friends ordered for a mixed grill and were all praises for the massive portion at the price. I had the same opinion about my Taco platter. It is a definite go for anyone in London, IMO.
PS: Take a loo break, you'll be in for an adult surprise!
Desperados Angel Restaurant is the perfect place to unwind with your colleagues after work. The cozy ambiance, rustic decor, and friendly staff create a warm and inviting atmosphere. The menu offers a mix of Mexican and American cuisine, with delicious dishes like homemade guacamole, sizzling fajitas, and juicy burgers. It's a spot where you can indulge in flavorful dishes and enjoy excellent service. Highly recommended for a cozy and authentic dining experience.
Such a wonderful restaurant! Inexpensive and the food quality is amazing. Reis (me and my sisters waiter for the night) gave us amazing service and made sure we was satisfied with the food and drinks that he served us. Definitely will come back! Drinks were really strong but not complaining cos they tasted really good!
Decent food, and there is a lot of it! A nice spin on what was Cuba Libre's cuban vibe, even if a bit of a faux Mexican atmosphere.
Really enjoyed the chicken fajitas my partner had the steak ones both delicious and we'll be back soo for more 😋
Love this place and the atmosphere. It's fairly cheap and has delicious food (if you order the right things). It has many flaws, but for the price it's hard to fault it.
If you go, DON'T order Nachos, go for jalapeño poppers and fajitas.
Music is a bit loud so would be bad for a first date, but good for meeting friends.
Be very careful not to leave your phone on the table, there are thieves in the area and they will come with weird printouts and try to distract you while they take your phone.
Some staff are great, and friendly, but there is a lady who just stands there and does nothing. Not sure what her job is, she just seemed to do nothing apart from chatting the whole time, and ignored us when we tried to order. She definitely works there, but maybe shouldn't 😅
I know it sounds not great, but with friends, this place is really fun and tasty.
The food was great, the prices were also fine. Overall, the quality and presentation of food was better than what we expected. The staff was also very nice and polite. I don't know why it's rated under 4 stars, but I'd definitely recommend trying it before believing the bad reviews.
Very nice food! For sure not light because was all deep fried but really teasty. Also the quality is very high and the beer is original!
Good costumer service and clean restaurant
For sure I’ll be back!
Beautiful service ❤, lovely food too!
Only thing table are very close to each other.
Saying that the food and service makes up for it,really does!
I've been to Desperados a few time's always a lovely experience ☺.
Ps, they give you a Complimentary Tequila shot with was nice wasn't expecting it 😘
Loved the deco, good service and had the beef tacos which were yummy! Only 4 stars as I felt it could have been better value for money

Been trying to check this place out for a while now and i finally got to which is really good
Plus ive never been to a mexican restaurant before so i decided to try it out.
The venue is definately really great its got a mexican vibe to it the place is clean the music is great.
The staff were really accomadating and just all round friendly and easy to talk to which i always love
Also the fact desperados isnt a chain makes it even more exciting to write about.
I decided to go for the
Ribs, wings and chips
Where as my friend tried out the vegi wrap.
The food was definately banging the ribs were super nice some of the best ribs ive had.
The wings were good not the best ive had but they were definately tasty only little issue is that they only gave 3 wings i think 5 would have been better only tiny issue.
The chips/fries which ever term you prefer were honestly some of the best ive had in ages.
Personally i dont think many restaurants do good chips/fries in the uk.
My friend seemed to really enjoy his vegi wrap which is also great
Its somewhere where its great for a friday and saturday night.
Would i come back again to Desperados
Definately really like the venue, the staff, the food it really is amazing. Looking forward to my next visit.
My partner and I came here on New Year’s Eve, and were very surprised to see all of these mixed reviews after we left! Service was outstanding and we felt very well cared for by staff.
We had the nachos, veg enchiladas and a chicken burger and thought the food was really nice and great portions. Lovely ambience in the restaurant and once again, we were blown away by the friendly and attentive staff. We also really enjoyed the margarita pitcher.
Of course, prices are about £8 - £12 a plate, but it’s hard to find anywhere in London these days that isn’t in this price range! Really enjoyed our visit.
