Halal Reviews for Las Iguanas South Bank

This place is crap and expensive. Came here a few weekends ago and no one in our group of 5 enjoyed their meal (some didn't want to start and suggested we just walk off it was that bad) because the quality was just utter crap. The enchiladas were nuked slop, the burgers were dry and the fries were cold rubber and my salad (see photos) was yellow lettuce, dry chicken and randomly included over powering pickled onions not mentioned on the menu for £17! They also forgot the avocado in the chicken avocado salad. The 241 cocktails had barely any alcohol in them. I also don't know how they would have passed a hygiene inspection. Avoid this place at all cost.

I came here as a group of 5 early-twenties girls for bottomless brunch. The food was lovely and the service was great, the waitress made sure we always had our next drink on order. The drinks also didn’t take long to come out, so we really got our money’s worth! The only things to point out are the restaurant sits under a tube line so is very noisy, and the toilets were not very clean and smelt bad. Other than that, we had a lovely experience.

Was sat down immediately which was great but placed into a booth where the water was leaking into the restaurant. You could see the water gaining mass from the brickwork and trickling down. An easy lean back meant you got covered in water and what looked like black mould. We ordered nachos which took about 45 minutes to arrive when there was only a few other tables. The restaurant then filled up and lots of other tables who got their full meals before us. The staff did apologise for this but no reason for the delay was given and another 15 minutes passed before they arrived. On arrival they were mild in heat and the chips tasted stale. For the cocktails they are mainly ice but are tasty for this little drink you get. The passion fruit zombie was served with pineapple no passion fruit on a Tuesday before 1800 so I was surprised they had ran out of passion fruit slices already. I will not be rushing back to this venue and would advise going elsewhere.

I was visiting the hospital nearby and stopped by Las Iguanas at Royal Festival Hall for a meal. I was served by Tonia, who was so attentive, kind, and genuinely lovely – she really made a difference to my evening. The restaurant itself had a calm and welcoming atmosphere, which was just what I needed after a stressful day. The food was delicious, and the service made the whole experience even better. Thank you again, Tonia – I truly appreciated your warmth and care. I’ll definitely be back!

For a quick pre-theatre bite to eat, you can't go wrong. The combination of the Evening Set Menu and 2 for £15 cocktails meant that it was a cheapish and quickish option. It might not rock your world, but it certainly got the job done.
