    I'm reviewing Los Amigos Mexican restaurant, not the nearby cafe, which incidentally is also owned…read moreby the same company Having heard some good things from friends, I decided to give Los Amigos a try. As there isn't parking in the immediate vicinity, I strolled down They have tried to create a Mexican feel with sombreros hanging up everywhere Perhaps the best thing is their comprehensive menu of proper cocktails. During Happy Hour, the regular cocktails are all £3.50. My virgin pina colada was good and my friend was happy with her Singapore Gin Sling We shared a tostada to start - chorizo and prawns were served on a corn cracker with pinto beans. The toppings were nice though the guacamole didn't taste homemade. The waiter had failed to ask how I wanted my rib eye cooked and I waited until he was about to leave the table before telling him. Could do better there. The steak lacked the normal bone that rib eye has but was quite flavourful. The pepper sauce was quite glutinous. My friend's salmon was overcooked by a lot and the pairing with bearnaise sauce tasted a bit odd So a brave attempt to introduce a new genre of food to Epsom but only an average dining experience.

    I must preface this review by telling you I am a Tex-Mex snob. I am not proud of it, but it is the…read moretruth. Having said that, I won't be returning to Los Amigos as I was fairly disappointed with the food. My husband and I visited for dinner and tried several dishes. To start, we ordered the tortilla dips and chips and the stuffed jalapeño peppers. The chips were slightly stale and the salsa was more like a sweet tomato sauce. The stuffed jalapeño peppers were good, but they could have been deep fried from a frozen product. For our mains, we had the chicken fajitas and the chicken nachos. The nachos had the same issues as the chips and salsa with the chicken tasting more Spanish than Tex-Mex. The fajitas were cooked okay, but must have had the same Spanish-rice type seasoning as the nachos... which really killed the flavour, in my opinion. I also tried the regular margarita, for which I had high hopes (thinking this could at least be a solid post-work drinks spot.) Sadly, the margarita was made with a mix and had only the one redeeming quality of a well-salted rim. I would have gladly paid another £1 or £2 for a margarita made from scratch- especially at a Tex Mex restaurant! All this said, I do not recommend this restaurant and suggest you go to Wimbledon for either Chiptole or Wahaca for your Tex-Mex cravings.

    Erm, I think I'd have to be 'desperado' to eat here again…read more Ok, that's a little harsh but there are simply better places to eat. It is, as far as I know, the only Mexican/Tex Mex in the area which gives it an advantage. I went on 'ladies night' which meant cocktails were half price for us girls. I had a cosmo which was too watered down and served in a tumbler, but then I guess we're in a themed restaurant not a cocktail bar, so you can't expect much. We had nachos to start which as far as I could tell had the kind of cheese you get out of a tube smothered all over them. Grim. And chopped up black olives!? Really? The jalapeños were good, I ate those bad boys. For my main meal I had beef fajitas which were actually quite tasty and came with a side dish of salsa, guacamole, sour cream, cheese, jalapeños and again, the random olives. All in all I wasn't too impressed, all a bit bland for my tastes, I think I'll stick to the local curry houses.

    I had been here a couple of year's previous to my visit this year, I had found the food then nice…read more 2013 and it's completely different, not worth the money. Tasted like something we could rustle up ourselves. The coleslaw was sainsburys basic range. There wasn't one good quality bit of food in the meal, didn't taste authentic. The beer was good, but not brewed in the restaurant!

Fish and Chips (what, is that Mexican? or Texan? nope just generic) - tick. It's a massive space as well, and when we were there, there were only 4 other tables. Which made it feel like one of those towns on the Mexican border, where tumbleweeds are blowing and the townsfolk are hiding behind swinging doors. Them ones. Yup, just really average, and really boring. Didn't like this brand of tequila 'n' Tex 'n' Mex very much.

    This was really just shy of 4-stars. I happened to be walking by on my way back to the hotel when I…read moredecided to pop in to see what was on the menu. I fully intended to come back for dinner, but everything on the menu sounded good and I had skipped lunch. I opted for a burrito to take back to the hotel with me. When I got back to my room and opened up the bag, I couldn't believe how big the burrito was! Wow. As for the flavor? It wasn't bad, but it wasn't quite Mexican food. It's kind of a fusion .. of what, I'm not sure. Regardless, it was a good burrito, the salsa was okay - not great. Chips were disappointing (store bought). I know I'm spoiled being from Southern California, I'm used to getting freshly made chips at most restaurants. I'd definitely eat here again. Expectations have been appropriately managed.

    Tequila Tex-Mex - Very tasty. This restaurant is dialed into the flavored and textures of Telmex. Reasonable prices too. Check it out.
