Scarlett's Kitchen in Cornwall, Isles of Scilly

Came at 7pm Friday September 27th, within opening hours as stated on the website (and Google maps), to find that it’s closed. If it’s closed during certain months of the year, they should either say on Google maps or state it on their website.

Well, where to start...... I do love the back story of the name, and it was probably the first thing I noticed when looking for somewhere to eat. This restaurant specialises in American and Mexican dishes that are all made in house. From burger buns and tortillas to ketchup. The restaurant is clean and tidy with a small mini bar at the front. The website warns that they don't take bookings, but when it's busy will take your number, then text you when your table is free. You can wait at the bar, or even leave. But don't be tempted to eat somewhere else, it's not worth it! The staff are friendly, and attentive with food orders cooked fresh for you. So, to the bit you really want. Cons (first, because everyone just normally skips to this bit): *Soda (Coke) seemed a bit flat. *Proper chips are nice, but were a bit salty. Would have preferred triple cooked chunky. *Food does take a bit of time to come. This isn't a problem, as it all arrives cooked and tasty. But I did notice a larger table getting impatient. *Parking, with the restaurant on the main Street in saltash, you have to use a pay and display. But it's located very nearby. Pros: *Fresh home made meals. *Friendly staff *Good décor *Damn good food..I mean it's really good. Would we go again? Yes. I'm full writing this now, and still thinking about the Queso dip. I want more of it. Like right now. Well done guys and girls, we was looking for a Mexican restaurant to win us over, and your it. We will be back! Edit: It's been a few months now. And I'm still thinking about that Queso dip Updated review October 2024. Just went back here...... When I wake up from the food coma in the next few days I might leave a more detailed review. But short and sweet, queso dip is still very good. Chicken wings in hot sauce made my face tingle and I loved every mouth fall. The chimichanga was a bit greasy from its cooking. The enchiladas are just brilliant. The Mucky fries are yummy, but I wish the chilli con carne was a bit spicier. I weighted myself leaving the house and I am lying here trying not to die with 2.25kg of food in my stomach. It hurts, and I have mexican flavour burps. My only regret is I got gym in the morning, and it might kill me. 2025 update: After I just finished digesting the last meal, I went back for seconds....... I asked for the enchiladas to be made extra spicy. They were great. But I have been training at the gym for the last 2 years, and this place will single-handedly break me.

These guys are great! Defo recommend!

Great spot for pre drinks and games before a night out! Or you could stay and party the night away upstairs on there very own dancefloor. I will definitely be coming back with the girls! Thankyou for such an amazing experience.

Extremely tasty food at a reasonable price 👍
