London, United Kingdom

Las Iguanas is a local institution, introducing boldly spiced Latin American food cooked from scratch and a heavyweight menu of premium cocktails. We added intoxicating Latin rhythms and the rich color palette of the southern hemisphere to the mix and that’s still true of Las Iguanas today. Las Iguanas was founded in 1991 and is based in London, United Kingdom.
