Mexican soul, British ingredients
Chef Patron Santiago Lastra aims to take Mexican cooking to the next level, which requires knowledge, skill, courage, and respect for ancient traditions. The cooking is clearly influenced by masters René Redzepi at Noma and Andoni Luis Aduriz at Mugaritz — this is innovative, well-prepared, flavorful food accompanied by an exciting wine list and fun, delicious cocktails. The restaurant encourages open communication with its staff and team and has a system for anonymous feedback to ensure everyone is okay and feels respected.
