La Chingada Euston is an independent Mexican restaurant at 160 Eversholt Street, a short walk from Euston station. The colourful, relaxed dining room serves traditional street food flavours through a concise menu of tacos, quesadillas and larger plates. Corn tortillas, slow cooked meats, fresh salsas and careful seasoning give the restaurant a distinct identity among central London taco spots.
Taco fillings include tender beef suadero, pork carnitas, chorizo and al pastor pork marinated with achiote and served with pineapple. Chicken alambre combines grilled chicken with peppers, onion, cheese and turkey bacon. Vegetarian cactus and vegan pastor made with marinated oyster mushrooms add thoughtful meat free choices rather than simple substitutions.
Quesadillas bring melted cheese together with fillings such as al pastor pork, steak, chorizo or mushrooms. Burritos layer rice, beans, grilled peppers, onion, lettuce and cheese with beef, chicken or vegetables. Chilaquiles verdes, chicken enchiladas in tomatillo sauce and pork pozole provide more substantial dishes rooted in familiar Mexican home cooking.
Tortilla chips with salsa, chicharrones with guacamole and loaded nachos work well for sharing at the start of a meal. Tres leches cake, flan or churros can provide a sweet finish, while margaritas, micheladas and mezcal cocktails complement the spice and richness of the food. The lively drinks and welcoming format make La Chingada suitable for anything from solo tacos to a group celebration.
