About

Paladar is a vibrant Latin American restaurant in Elephant & Castle serving fresh, creative cuisine that's 100% gluten-free. Chef José Rubio-Guevara's menu celebrates the ingredients and flavours of Central and South America, from Nikkei tuna tostadas and seabass ceviche to cochinita pibil and purple corn churros. The exclusively Latin American wine and spirits list complements innovative cocktails crafted with regional ingredients.

What sets Paladar apart is its dedication to coeliac-safe dining without compromise – every dish is naturally gluten-free, eliminating cross-contamination concerns whilst delivering authentic taste. The covered and heated conservatory garden provides one of the most romantic dining spaces in SE1, making it equally suited to casual meals and special occasions. The art-decorated interior showcases works by up-and-coming Latin American artists, adding cultural depth to the dining experience.

Dogs are genuinely welcomed both inside and outside, making this an excellent choice for owners seeking quality Latin American dining where their pets can join them comfortably.
