You'll find Taquiza tucked away on Rye Lane in Peckham, where it's been quietly building a loyal following for doing Mexican food without any of the gimmicks. The kitchen takes real pride in the fundamentals: fresh masa, properly charred tortillas, and fillings that taste like someone actually knows what they're doing. It's the kind of place where locals queue on a Saturday night, and you won't regret joining them. The room itself feels lived-in rather than designed, with an easy energy that makes you want to linger over a second round of drinks.
