Hey foodies, it’s Team Coco’s Hannah Tan here, and I just had the most incredible dining experience at London’s best Latin American restaurant Zuaya , a hidden gem in Kensington that’s all about exotic Latin American flavors. Let me take you through this delicious journey and why I think Zuaya is London’s best Latin American restaurant.
Starters that Wow: London’s best Latin American restaurant
We kicked things off with some fabulous starters. The Burrata on Corn Cake was creamy and sweet, a match made in heaven. The Lamb Tacos were bursting with flavor, transporting me straight to the streets of Mexico. The Beef Empanadas were crispy and savory, and the Parmesan Mushroom Paella was a rich, umami-packed delight. Each dish was a tantalizing taste of Latin America.
Main Courses to Remember: London’s best Latin American restaurant
For the mains, we went all out. The Milk-fed Lamb Skewers with a Wok of Vegetables and Sweet Soy were tender and perfectly seasoned. The Grilled Octopus with Sweet Potato was another highlight – the octopus was tender and paired beautifully with the sweet potato.
Sides & Sweets: London’s best Latin American restaurant
On the side, we had Fried Cassava and Sweet Potato Crisps. They were the perfect crunchy complement to our meal. And for dessert, we indulged in Dulce de Leche and Coconut Flan. Creamy, sweet, and utterly satisfying – it was the perfect end to an amazing meal.
Drinks & Atmosphere: London’s best Latin American restaurant
To top it all off, we sipped on some Cava NV Brut Reserve. The bubbles were the perfect pairing for the vibrant flavors of our meal.

The resident DJ spins Latin American beats on select nights, making it feel like a mini vacation right in the heart of Kensington.
