Crazy Homies
your comments review this restaurant and win a bottle of champagne
Probably the worst service I have ever got at a restaurant... the food is M&S style tex-mex in ceramic plates.
My party of four waited 30mins for a table only to have to harass the waitress to take our order (after another 30mins) - she remarked she did not think we ordering any food...
The food came in semi-cooked... decent crockery though.
We then waited another 30mins trying to get a bill.
The upside - nice place if you have time to kill!

In my humble opinion, restaurants should either take reservations or have a turn-around limit on the table. On a Monday or Tuesday, Crazy Homies has neither so don't expect to get a table if you arrive after 7pm. The management is quite happy to let tourists and students nurse lukewarm margaritas for the entire night while dozens of potential guests stare on in anger.
Really don't bother with this place. True, there are no good Mexican restaurants in London, but don't ruin your Mexican urge by settling with this one. The decor is dismal (think souvenir shop at Cancun airport), the service truly doesn't exist (maybe they should install vending machines?) and the food is average.

Terrible place. I used to come here for drinks last year and always had a good night. Something has gone and I won't be coming back again. Is it just me or do the margaritas taste weird in there now?

Brilliant Mexican food, good choice of Mexican beers, interesting people and a fun atmosphere - VERY highly recommended.
Don't go if you are the sort who is paranoid and thinks you are being ignored - there is virtually no service! When you're hungry or thirsty you just have to act like a caveman and grab what you can.
You won't mind though because the food is superb and the service is rubbish for everyone, even the beautiful people :)

This restaurant is a good Mexican. My English friends were very happy with the "corona" beer and white tequila. The food was delicious and very hot, typical of this country. I loved the taquitos with "guacamole" (avocado).
Dany the owner and his group are always smiling whit the customers and they are very nice and friendly.
The decor is basically the colors of Mexico: white, red and green.
My wallet didn't suffer from eating there.
Regards

3 of us arrived at 8pm on a thursday night. we did wait for 30 minutes to get a table, but that is to be expected at that time and the place was packed.
the waitstaff did an excellent job of taking care of us. we noticed that as soon as a table was emptied, it was cleaned rather quickly and new people were seated.
the food was excellent - chicken taquitos and pork quesadilla.
the atmosphere was also very fun and we all will most definately go back.

Crazy Homies boasts the most authentic Mexican food in London that I’ve ever encountered. It’s faultless and perfectly executed….
However,
1.) I called two days ahead to book a table and was told they take no booking on Monday or Tuesday. (No mention of this on their website)
2.) We arrive at Crazy Homies only to be told that the downstairs restaurant is closed (no one mentioned this to me when I called earlier) but we were free to eat in the ultra- tiny, ultra-crowded, ultra-smoky bar.
3.) We wait 60 minutes for a microscopic table – no apologies.
4.) My friend was visibly pregnant, but the tables on either side of us insisted on chain-smoking cigarettes throughout our meal. (Quite shockingly, there was no non-smoking section – is that even allowed?)
Crazy Homies is a good concept, with great food. But TERRIBLE SERVICE AND ATTITUDE. Does Tom Conrad want repeat customers or not?
If you want to give it a try, prepare to wait at least an hour for a table. And prepare to die a slow death from second hand smoke.

I've already written one review of this restaurant (see below). As you can see, the review was good, so I decided to go back with friends for my birthday. My experience was absolutley appaling.
After waiting over an hour for a table (after being overlooked twice) we were told to wait in the cafe next door, which has the same owners. After half an hour waiting at a table we went to ask a waitress what was going on and she unappoligeticaly told us we had again been overlooked and (you wont believe this bit) we would now have to go to the bottom of the list to wait for another table. At this point I asked to speak to the manager who ignored my request and carried on his business until after five minutes, I had to go up to him. I politley told him what had happened (and that it was a special occasion) but he was completely unappologetic. I then told him that I wouldnt be returning again, and that I would be writing a new review for London Eating, at which point he actually said something along the lines of 'we are busy anyway, we dont need more customers'.
By the time all of this was over, the only place we could get service was under the golden arches of a certain fast food restaurant....birthday meal ruined.
This restaurant has great tex mex food, and is a cool setting but offers the most terrible service I have ever encountered. The service is not just bad, the staff are actually rude because they have no accountability. Dont underestimate how easily their bad service can ruin a good evening and, in their own words, they dont need your custom, so you might as well go elsewhere.

It's without doubt a great Mexican place, with the best Mexican food I have ever tasted in London, divine Margaritas and cool Mexican beer. But be prepared; no table reservations and the place is tiny so expect to wait 30-60 min. As long as you know this and don't let it ruin your night it is fantastic!
