It satisfied all my Mexican cravings!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I normally look into the places that we eat at, but this was truly a little unexpected gem, not planned just walked in because I liked the sinage out side. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The waitress was super friendly and we had first pick of seats as we got there as they opened.  And super lucky we went early &#8216;cos 30 minutes later they where full and buzzing with a fun vibe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They only have 2 drinks on the menu- the classic Margarita and a Napoleon Lost- don&#8217;t worry I did not know what it was either, but it was amazing! Now I am not a tequila drinker, but it was so good that I had 2 and only noticed the tequila when I could not find the car&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now on to the main event&#8230; FOOD!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\"><figure class=\"alignright size-medium\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" src=\"https:\/\/www.noodleinmysoup.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/20200201_182847-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-195\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.noodleinmysoup.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/20200201_182847-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.noodleinmysoup.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/20200201_182847-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.noodleinmysoup.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/20200201_182847-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.noodleinmysoup.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/20200201_182847-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.noodleinmysoup.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/20200201_182847-2048x1536.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>We ordered a few things to share, just a side note the portions are small so ordering a few plates is a good idea. We started with the nacho&#8217;s, amazingly cheesy and the guacamole was creamy and spicy, just the way mamma likes it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We followed that with a BBQ pulled pork tortilla and finished it off with a Scampi and salsa special that was on the board. All in all the experience, food and drink where good.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\"><figure class=\"alignleft size-medium\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/www.noodleinmysoup.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/20200201_181615-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-194\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.noodleinmysoup.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/20200201_181615-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.noodleinmysoup.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/20200201_181615-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.noodleinmysoup.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/20200201_181615-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/www.noodleinmysoup.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/20200201_181615-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.noodleinmysoup.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/20200201_181615-scaled.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Some after thought&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The restaurant is tiny so either get there early or make a booking.
