Hola Las Iguanas Cambridge

On Tuesday I was kindly invited to go and check out the  Las Iguanas on the Quayside in Cambridge new makeover. I hadn't been a quite a few years so it was a nice way to go and try the restaurant again!





















The positioning of the restaurant gives it the perfect view across the river to watch all the punts going by. The outdoor seating at the front of the restaurant is also great for any après work drinks during the summer months (especially with 2for1 cocktails!). There are so many drink options from cocktails, mocktails, beer and wine. I tried the Pink Guava Colada which was Malibu, Funkin guava, blackcurrant, coconut and pineapple. My friend Immy tried out the Raspberry Cooler mocktail, which was Funkin raspberry, bottlegreen elderflower and soda.

 

The food menu is broken down into different Latin American countries with so many different types of dishes to choose from. For my main course I went for the Marinated Steak Strip Fajita Stack which  consisted of their special mix of spices, onions & peppers. With guacamole, grated cheese, sour cream, jalapeños, roasted tomato salsa & soft wheat tortillas. I really like the options you get with having dishes you assemble yourself making it more of an experience. Immy went for the Gaucho Steak which is a 10oz sirloin steak sprinkled with ancho chilli salt, served with smoky herb chimichurri, Argentine-style roasted sweetcorn puree and she chose curly fries. 


 

After demolishing the main courses that were so delicious we moved onto the desserts. Again there were too many good options so we picked two and split them! We ordered six Churros which came with with chocolate ganache or dulce de leche and Brownie, Cookie & Ice Cream which was Warm gooey chocolate brownie pieces, vanilla ice cream & a dulce de leche cookie sandwich.



I often find the desserts can not always be the best in certain cuisines but Las Iguanas have nailed that course. All of our pudding was super delicious and could have eaten it all over again straight after we finished! The churros were so light and the chocolate dipping sauce was so moreish. I might go back soon just to have them again! 

Thank you again to the lovely team at Las Iguanas for a lovely evening! AD (It was kindly gifted) I'll definitely be back for more Churros and to try more of the cocktail menu!
