Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Azteca on Battersea Rise charms with "great food, great cocktails" and a vibrant atmosphere. While some diners note service inconsistencies and pacing issues, the "lovely location" and "delicious food" earn high praise. Highlights include the "pork belly bites" and enticing margaritas. This spot promises potential as it refines its service.

    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!!

    4th visit in 2 months, so currently our favorite local restaurant. But if you are a vegetarian I would double check before you go, that they actually are serving the vegetarian options on the night you go.
