Reviews Cavita

Met up with fine friends who all love Mexican food for a birthday celebration - We weren’t disappointed. Service was friendly and prompt and they were very helpful in recommending cocktails and food. The atmosphere was great - dark, moody and comfortable. On to the cocktails first - very tasty and a good selection. Very well made cocktails and far too easy to consume. Abit too much ice if I’m critical - would prefer a more cocktail less ice combination. Followed by delicious tasty food. Lots of flavour in each dish - yummy. Portions were good and recommend ordering a few dishes then waiting to order more. We struggled to finish all our food. It may have been the amount of cocktails consumed! Highly recommended and will be back. One negative is that we contacted the ‘secret bar’ via WhatsApp - as required - prior to the booking a few days before and heard nothing back which is a shame as we would have gone on to this after the dinner. Still haven’t heard from them 2 days after the event! Obviously a very very top secret bar 😃 Never the less we had a lovely time at the not so secret restaurant… About the restaurant Adriana Cavita’s first solo project in the UK is a traditional Mexican restaurant named Cavita in the heart of Marylebone Village. Built around the knowledge acquired from her travels, Cavita encompasses food traditions from all over Mexico, from the capital, where Adriana was born, across to Oaxaca and the Yucatan. The 70-cover restaurant has an open fire kitchen at its core, with reclaimed granite tables for couples and smaller groups, as well as communal dining available at the chef's table. Downstairs sits the hidden mezcaleria, Mayahuel, a beautiful atmospheric cocktail and mezcal bar and a wonderful spot to enjoy the finest Mexican spirits.

Lovely and fun ambiance, well-managed restaurant. The staff were very attentive and quick. Andrea at the reception was fabulous. First time for me to book via The Fork app but not very user-friendly app. Andrea was so helpful and accommodating and sorted us out that night. Food was good and appealing, appetising. Catchy drinks too.

Fantastic food just way too pricey, only go if you can afford. We took the 5 cheapest dishes to share between two with no drinks and still paid £80 which is outrageous for Mexican food. Having said that, each dish was unique in its taste and we appreciated each bite of each dish. Service was friendly and professional. The menu is rather complicated to understand for non-Mexicans in my opinion so we had to ask for some advice. Really enjoyed it, only really marking down for pricing.

The interior design and ambiance is remarkable. I am Mexican and the place has an authentic vibe. Service is great with friendly staff as one would expect from a Latinamerican establishment. Food is a success; it is Not a tropicalization, it the real deal with a dash of fusion with Asian flavours. I highly recommend the ceviche tostada and the cochinita pibil from the lunch menu. Horchata and Agua de pepino for drinks. Five stars on the tortillas (hand made with great maize dough) and the salsas. I will be coming back to try dinner menu. Food is great and is value for flavour however inexperienced or casual commensals might feel the menu is pricey. You need to have a somehow developed taste for Mexican flavours to fully appreciate the curated dishes offered in this extraordinary Mexican restaurant.

It’s a wow for me. This is my first time having real Mexican food in Europe. Highly recommend delicious food and friendly staffs.

No picture will tell you how good this place tastes. Clearly the best Mexican restaurant we've been to in London. The flavors are there, the colors and variety of plates as well. We might have gotten a bit excited by the menu and ordered more than we should have, but in the end, we finished our plates and even got a few drinks in their mezcalarea downstairs, where we got to learn the difference between mezcals and tequilas, thanks to the amazing waitress there.

The restaurant is beautiful, giving off a chic and rustic vibe (felt like Mexico in the centre of London). The cocktail I had was delicious, and the food was good, however, I was a bit disappointed as we ordered the crab tostadas but unfortunately they forgot to serve it to us. Our main meals came quickly and assumed the starters would come after, which in our minds was strange timing wise, but by the end they never turned up to our table, and as we were in a rush we decided to leave it. I would recommend the restaurant, but I would advise the waitress to write down the orders on paper instead of keeping it on the head as clearly things get forgotten that way.

The decor is very very nice! The food is delicious and the service is nice… i think it is quite expensive given the portion… but definitely a cute brunch place to try
