Join the Team at TAQ In March 2026, chefs Eduardo Yishima and Jackson Boxer joined forces to relaunch one of London’s original Mexican restaurants. Formerly known as Taqueria, the restaurant has been reimagined as TAQ. Originally opened on Westbourne Grove over 20 years ago, Taqueria was a pioneer of London’s early Mexican dining scene.
