Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Azteca on Battersea Rise is a vibrant spot with "authentic food" and a "fun atmosphere." It's known for "amazing cocktails" and "delicious Mexican-Japanese fusion cuisine." While service can be inconsistent, the charming staff and "great atmosphere" make it a "real hidden gem." Patrons recommend checking your bill and trying the fish tacos and spicy margaritas.

    When we arrived we were told we only had the table for 90 mins which was a little surprising. It’s hard to guage portion sizes (which aren’t that generous) and when we tried to order a little more food we were told we couldn’t because they wanted the table back 20 minutes later. Not as good as the last time we went. Oh yes we also got charged extra for 4 little tortillas that came with one £35 dish that only had 3 each to start with (10 cm diameter ) !!!

    This is the third time I have been to this Azteca and the third time the staff try to slip additional items onto the bill and table which were not ordered but then charged for. Previously they did this with ‘complimentary’ drinks and sides that they wanted us to try. Several members of the management staff are very over familiar and arrogant. The food is authentic but it’s extremely embarrassing to have to keep pointing out incorrect items on the bill and it totally ruined my partners birthday which his friends had travelled across the Uk for to surprise him. It’s a great shame as some of the staff are perfectly pleasant but the others totally ruined the restaurant three times in a row. Check your bill and be wary of ‘complimentary things to try’.

    Absolutely incredible dining experience at Azteca. Welcomed by the super friendly staff the minute we arrived, and seated in a timely and efficient fashion. The food was outstanding, and probably the best Mexican-Japanese fusion cuisine I have ever tasted! Particular recommendations for the Octopus cervice and the spicy margaritas. We cannot wait to go back and taste some more of their ridiculously tasty menu. 5 stars all day long!!
