I have heard that the Mexican restaurant wants to expand on both the ground and first floors - which seems strange as it is never busy enough to need that kind of expansion. It would appear that the restaurant has been sold/will be sold to a restaurant chain based in Sydenham(?).


I may got my wires crossed - does anyone have any more information?

It's a good space, in a good location


The quality of the food has been debated on here several times (quick summary from my perspective - overly salty and not especially good food but I usually have a great night when I'm there)


It is clearly a bit knackered looking and in need of something - "a chain from Sydenham"? - would that be the people behind the Dolphin and Dartmouth arms in Forest Hill?

oh Jesus no! don't touch that place. When we moved in it was the first place we tip-toed into not knowing what to expect. We got hammered (and still do with every visit) on their Mcocktails! They are always heaving on a Saturday night. The upstairs is a great space but needs some tlc.

I love the place for all it's cheeseyness! Would hate to see it go, especially if replaced by a Dartmouth/Dolphin type place (that's nothing against them, but they are not needed on LL!).


Interestingly (perhaps :-S), there is a very similar tex mex place opposite the Dolphin in Sydenham!

Not necessarily - Frida Kahlo was Mexican and she had a moustache!

tsk


Until you have experiened The mex at the Dogstar in brix, then you will never reach the apex of Mexi good.


LL Mex is OK - hardly original or healthy, but OK quality stodge and jugs of cocktails make it all worthwhile


The Daily Substandards Fay maschler would refuse to enter its doors ( or even go south the the River ) , but then again, she is a po faced old shitehawk, so thats not a bad thing

Shitehawk?


This man is a lexicographer.


It's probably a reflection of my lack of imagination, but despite seven years in ED, I could never cross the lintel beneath that leering orange effigy. It's neither man nor woman, but an embodiment, nay an anthropomorph of pure evil.

    • I can't answer your question. But on them generally: it's changed hands in the last year or so, I think. I paid £35 for interior and exterior and they did a crap job. I'll go to the one on Herne Hill (or just do it myself if health allows) next time.
    • Aria came round to fix my tub drain when I'd messed up the seal. Came within hours, fixed the tub, and ran a bath to make sure it was okay. Here's where the fun starts. While he was over, I asked him questions about the rest of the plumbing round the house. I had just moved into a Victorian home that was previously being rented. Unsurprisingly, we found another leak in the tub and a drip in the kitchen tap.  He came back the next day to put a better pipe in my bathtub and replace the kitchen sink. Painstakingly figured out how to replace the hard-to-access kitchen sink without cutting through the wood panel with the help of his builder friend, Mark. Answered all my questions and clearly knew his stuff. All this right before Christmas holidays! 
    • Was that the one where you put a coin in and it squirted water at you? what was the name of the one in hanway street - whatever you ordered it came on a segmented tray like you get in prison (I imagine). Prices were a steal.
