Set on London’s most vibrant square, Leicester Square Kitchen introduces a Mexican and Peruvian dining experience serving small plates and innovative cocktails. From exquisite tacos to fine skewered meats from the Peruvian barbecue, the menu takes diners on a journey through the unique flavours of South America.

With Soho and Covent Garden on the doorstep, Leicester Square Kitchen is the perfect place to enjoy a pre-theatre dinner. The restaurant is just a few minutes' walk from iconic West End theatres such as Harold Pinter Theatre, Garrick Theatre, Her Majesty's Theatre and many more.

We invite you to join us for a pre-dinner drink on our terrace or in the neighbouring At The Hampshire Lounge Bar prior to your dining experience. At weekends, resident DJs provide a backing track to a fun and memorable night in town.

Please note that from Sunday to Tuesday the menu will be limited to the lounge bar menu.

    Delicious food and excellent service. The Peruvian steak and sweetcorn were fantastic and the Mexican beef and fish tacos delicious. The tiger prawns have a proper zing!

    Great location, pre theatre menu was nice and good value but no veg with mains and most things highly seasoned with chilli. The champagne/sparkling wine prices were incorrect on the printed wine list by quite a lot e.g. champagne was priced at £8 a glass (which seemed cheap) but in fact was £14 per glass, the same as the sparkling English wine, so that was confusing. The waiters were nice but were not that efficient and didn't seem to know the menu that well. Overall I would go back but the above needs to be addressed to improve the overall experience.

    Food was really good and service was exceptional. Value was really good. The tacos were a bit on the small side but very tasty. Every other dish we had was great and good portion size.
