Interesting place. Was a very hot day and didnt seem the cleanest place. Had Peruvian food and the lady who served us was great. Food tasted authentic, but seems a bit expensive. Large portions though.

It's a little food court with several restaurants from different Latin American countries. I selected Perlas Marinas, an Ecuadorian one. I got "banderita mixta" which is basically a tripe stew with potatoes and peanut butter. I had no idea what to expect and it was delicious!!!! The dish came with a side portion of prawn ceviche which was also great.

Great authentic South American food! Best I've found in London so far! The food hall itself feels like ones I've been to in South America! Whole families from Colombia eating together. I'm avoiding carbs and they were happy to accommodate me with extra salad instead; the steak was tasty, salad and sauces great. Service was good as I wasn't sure what I wanted, and when I explained I needed the food quickly, Anthony's Steak House server was honest and explained it would take some time, but she took me across the hall to Mitad Del Mundo, and their food is great! Will come back with the family.
