Located in Portobello Road in Noting Hill, Santo is a vibrant Mexican restaurant that provides a comfortable and informal atmosphere for diners to unwind and relax in after a tough day's grind. Its Victorian façade opens into a lively interior with rich colours alternating soft pastel hues and an exposed brick wall standing steady complementing the wenge furniture.

An authentic Mexican menu takes in dishes that include slow cooked pork in banana leaves, marinated in orange juice and achiote seeds, served with pickled red onions, salsa habanera and lime, and a choice of chicken or beef strips, pan fried with bacon, onion and chile verde. Expect classic burritos, enchiladas and quesadillas on the carte along with perfect sign offs like pancakes and goats' milk toffee or pumpkin stewed in molasses, both served with homemade 'helado de vainilla' and roasted almonds.
