Lenos Carbon - Southwark

This restaurant is fantastic and the food was outstanding! I highly recommend trying the empanadas and the cazuela de mariscos as they were absolutely delicious! My partner, who is Colombian, loved everything about the food, atmosphere, and hospitality. The staff was very friendly and we had a wonderful dining experience. I hope to see Ajiaco on the menu next time!

Some friends and I dropped in to the restaurant following an evening at Corsica Studios. We were made to feel very welcome by our waitress and the energy of the restaurant was fun. Our food was extremely high quality and we had the pleasure of meeting the chef (originally from Madrid) who also made us feel very welcome. Although the facilities were a little limited and rustic (due to space under the railway) it was fitting the character of the restaurant and overall a charming experience. I would recommend it to anyone looking for authentic Latin/South American cuisine in London on an affordable price tag. Highly rated and look forward to going back.

Amazing food, and big portions! Typically colombian. Impecable service and atmosphere. So rare to find a placd where the price matches both size and taste of the dish

Located next to Elephant Castle train station, in a real Latin enclave there are also other shops and bars nearby, related to South America), this cosy family run restaurant has been a true delight to try. Extremely generous portions, and authentic food respectful of the tradition. Simple but overall enjoyable atmosphere, ideal for families as well as fast solo lunch breaks. I cannot fault anything to the cuisine and the friendly staff: it was a big, satisfying meal, and the final price was, surprisingly, lower than expected. For sure it is a must try for all fans of South American food, looking for an affordable treat in central London.

I went there with a friend of mine few days ago and really enjoyed. As many said, the prices went up but food still nice and the atmosphere was good as well. We paid the bill but decided to stay longer and have few extra beers. I go to pay the beers and I noticed they added 2 extra I didn't wanted to kick a fuss so I paid without questioning. Before leaving, my friend ordered 2 more beers and paid and they tried to charge him for all the old drinks. By that point, I realised they actually ripping off people (especially if you are not Colombian). I would strongly recommend to watch out for the bill as they remove the empty bottles from the table very quick and that way you may lose track of what you ordered. I feel like they thought we were drunk (we weren't) so they could take advantage of it. It's a shame because we had a great time but I really don't mess about cheeky behaviours and unprofessionalism (with those prices).
