In the heart of theatreland, Cantina Laredo offers sophisticated Mexican dining

Located in the pretty St Martin's Courtyard in the heart of London’s Covent Garden, Cantina Laredo is a sophisticated and contemporary Mexican restaurant. Perfectly positioned close to many of London’s big theatres, and with the many boutiques and shops of Covent Garden just steps away, Cantina Laredo is a popular restaurant for those wishing to sample a more gourmet Mexican cuisine. The restaurant interior is a smart and stylish space, decked out in bright colours but with a sophisticated feel and the ambience is much more refined than most Mexican cantinas. The menu focuses on fresh and authentic Mexican flavours using the finest of ingredients. Tuck into delicious dishes such as grilled steak topped with bacon wrapped shrimp filled with Oaxaca cheese and jalapeño or Enchiladas Vera Cruz filled with chicken, spinach and Monterey Jack cheese topped with tomatillo sauce, marinated vegetables and fresh cheese. The guacamole is prepared fresh at your table in traditional molcajete bowls and the usual favourites from fajitas to tacos are always winners and portions are more than generous. The wine list matches the menu well and there are plenty of beers to choose from too along with the fabulous 'Casa Rita' margaritas made with freshly-squeezed lemon and lime juices and served frozen or on the rocks. Cantina Laredo takes Mexican dining in London up a notch or two and is perfect for any occasion.
