Welcome to Catalina's!

Situated right next to the BT tower in Fitzrovia, our cosy restaurant serves street tacos in the true style of the traditional Mexican cuisine. Inspired by his grandmother Catalina, our chef David prepares his delicious food using our barbeque grill. Enjoy slow roasted brisket, tender chicken or specially prepared jackfruit while sipping on one of our Tequila-based cocktails or refreshing mocktails or maybe some original Mexican Mango Soda. Come with friends and treat yourselves to a massive platter of nachos with homemade nacho cheese, guacamole, salsa and more bits and bobs that are sure to get your mouth watering ready for our street tacos.

We have created a friendly, intimate atmosphere with lots of attention to detail and we can assure you, we've all been painting, tiling and getting our restaurant all ready for you!

Make sure to book your table to secure your spot, but don't be discouraged if you don't get around to it, walk-ins are welcome!

    We had a wonderful time at Catalina’s! The moment we arrived, we had a lovely welcome from Henni who talked us through both our menu and our dog’s menu. We always look out for dog-friendly restaurants, but this has been the best experience so far. Everything we ordered was really delicious! Even our dog enjoyed her meal. Shame we live so far. Catalina’s is the type of place where we could easily become regulars.

    We booked on spec, not knowing what to expect. What we got was a delicious Mexican meal, made with fresh ingredients and served with a smile. The staff were friendly and helpful. The kitchen shut just before 9.00 at which point all the staff sat down and ate together. We loved it and will definitely go again

    When I told my partner I was going to Catalina’s with the girls he was so upset that he suggested that rather than going for his usual birthday steak I should bring him here. The service is always so wonderful, the food always delicious, the spicy margaritas always fantastic. We love Catalina’s!

    Staff were friendly and helpful, but food was bland and overpriced for what it was. Cocktails were not worth the price.

    The best Mexican place in London! The food was impeccable, catering to a carnivore diet but also a vegan diet without any fuss. The service could not have been better, I didn’t catch the waiters name but he said he was from Nashville, he was friendly and made us laugh and smile! The whole team were welcoming and friendly :)
