A little bit of sunshine in the heart of Greenwich
I stumbled across Desperados one night after a visit to the local chinese and Yate's pub. We were looking for somewhere to continue drinking and Desperados was the only place still open.
Ive never been a huge mexican food fan but as the menu had a very extensive cocktail list we decided to head in.

How thrilled am I that I did! This restaurant has converted me to have a real passion for Mexican food . The atmosphere is amazing. You can select whatever music you like from Youtube using the laptop they have installed instead of a jukebox. You are most likely to hear latino rhythms playing though as once you are in there you cannot help but dance to them! As the evening progresses you can guarantee that the music gets a little more 'housey' which is great once you have finished eating.

The menu itself is very varied and there is something for everyone even if you are not a foreign food fan. The steak I had was cooked to perfection and I am a self confessed steak critic. I love mine rare and it's unusual for me to have no complaints about the lack of blood or tenderness but Desperados hit the spot every time.

Their starters are equally as delicious and I have never tasted Nachos like it. Their secret BBQ sauce is pure heaven!

I have never eaten from their desert menu as I find I much rather prefer a 'PS I love you' or a 'Sex on the Beach'- Dont we all? The cocktail menu is amazing and the bar staff put on a little flaring show for you as you wait.

This is probably the most understimated restaurant in Greenwich but by far the best. You MUST give it a go!!
