Los Mochis, a new restaurant and bar offering a pan-pacific mix of Mexican and Japanese art and cuisine, opens in Notting Hill on May 17.
Combining Mexican street food fun with Asian flavours and flair, the eatery is the brainchild of multi-award winning restaurateur Markus Thesleff.
Open daily from 8am-midnight, an early look at the menu certainly has us salivating. For breakfast choose between a healthy Acai Bowl (banana, apple, chia seeds, cacao nibs, goji berries, toasted coconut) or the more indulgent El Rey Taco (truffled scrambled eggs with roasted cheese).
From lunch through to nightfall, there’s a 22-strong Taco Menu to explore. From Trailer Park Chicken TPC (fried chicken, guacamole, jalapeno-soy, habanero-gochujang, negi, parsnip chips) to Miso Black Cod (avocado, chicory, ume miso salsa, jalapeno, sweet potato crisp) and Yakiniku Steak (garlic-ginger steak, red pepper, sesame, negi), it looks like the traditional taco has been elevated to gourmet level.

The design is rustic Mexican with Japanese influences
Complementing Los Mochis’ taco line-up is a mouth-watering array of Ceviches, Tostadas, Tiraditos and Quesadillas. There’s also a selection of Maki Rolls inspired by the team’s extensive Japanese experience.
And if you’ve room for desserts, find yourself torn between Churro Ice Cream Sando, Tarta de Merengue de Ancho Chile Limón and Cajeta de Dulce de Leche Fondant.
Los Mochis is lining up an impressive selection of small batch artisanal agaves. Hand-crafted signature cocktails include a Late-Night Martini (Ocho Blanco, lychees, vanilla, lemongrass, lime, jalapenos), the picante Mezcal Haze Paloma (Mezcal, grapefruit, lime, syrup, sparkling water) or the delightful Shinigami (Ciroc vodka, sake, fresh cucumber, jalapeno, lemongrass, passionfruit sugar, apple juice). Reflecting its Japanese roots, you’ll also find a rich variety of sakes on the drinks menu too.
First floor dining at Los Mochis
The overall design of both the ground floor dining room and the first-floor lounge is rustic Mexican, with Japanese accents. A 20-cover terrace and full length bi-fold windows, also caters for al fresco eating, drinking and socialising. The restaurant will feature a mural façade created by Mexican artist Jorge Tellaeche.
Markus Thesleff is best known for his Middle East Okku venues, he has also launched such varied destinations as Sophie’s Café; roof top destination Cielo Sky Lounge; Casa de Tapas and Riva, Dubai’s first independent standalone beach club.
There are plenty of ways to celebrate Diwali in London – but few taste as good as this. While fireworks light up the sky this Diwali, a sparkle for the senses is coming from Namaste Village in Islington, where vegetarian dining gets the kind of glow-up that could convert even the most committed carnivores. Tucked…
Stop the presses. Cancel your dinner plans. And put the Negroni down. I come to you with huge London news: after many nights of painstaking “research” (you’re welcome), I’ve found it – the most exciting new restaurant in Soho. Nessa is about to become your new favourite. Led by executive chef Tom Cenci, Nessa is…
Sometimes it’s a restaurant’s menu that grabs me. Other times, it’s a viral TikTok or a rave review from a pal. But Noodle & Beer had me before I even saw a single dish – for this Chinatown outpost, the name alone was enough. Because honestly, if there’s a better combination in the world than…
