"Bright, fresh and friendly, this Mexican restaurant near Oxford Street is ideal for reviving a tiring shopper; the basement bar is a must-visit for tequila fans, with an extensive range of cocktails and a vast array of Mexican spirits, while upstairs a sharing-friendly menu delivers boldly flavoured plates from street-food inspired tempura crab tacos to raw-bar dishes like aguachile verde, with an open kitchen adding to the buzz." - Andrew Young
"When cycling or exploring near Regent’s Park I’ll sometimes stop at Cavita for a Mexican meal — it’s a pleasant neighbourhood option." - The MICHELIN Guide UK Editorial Team
"Cavita on Wigmore Street is one of those restaurants you want everyone to see you at. Ideally while engaged in a hilarious conversation with a fabulous friend and drinking just the right number of spiced watermelon margaritas. Hint: enough that you get a little Pinterest mom over all the lovely ceramics, not so many that you try to chat up the beef shin quesabirria. Don’t write this place off as just a gorgeous foliage haven though—the Mexican food is excellent, the service is friendly, and if it's on, splitting the whole grilled octopus is a must if you’re rolling with a group." - rianne shlebak, heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, sinead cranna
"Cavita on Wigmore Street is one of those restaurants where you want to be seen. Ideally while engaged in a hilarious conversation with a fabulous friend and drinking just the right number of spiced watermelon margaritas. But don’t write this place off as just a gorgeous foliage haven. The changing Mexican menu is excellent. If it’s on, the pig’s head tamal is divine, and splitting the whole grilled octopus is a must with a group." - jake missing, heidi lauth beasley, sinead cranna, rianne shlebak
"Head to the basement bar for a cocktail before taking a seat in this bright, friendly ground floor restaurant with a view of the chefs at work in the open kitchen. The menu brims with punchy, vibrant Mexican choices, including raw dishes such as hamachi tostadas and street food options like a concise range of tacos. Make sure you bring some friends to make the most of the main course platters to share. There's an enticing brunch offering too, where the mezcal and margaritas are bound to be flowing." - Michelin Inspector
