XO fish, grilled chicken and smoked tripe stuffed into tacos: it sounds like a gimmick until you read the menu. The team behind Noodle Lane took the idea and ran with it.

They gutted the old Rulin noodle space on East 13th Street and turned it into a small counter operation, no sit-down tables. Order at the window, eat standing up, go back for the tripe.

Stumbled upon this cozy warm Asian fusion taco spot! I had the great opportunity to meet the host Edgar. Pretty cute chill dude who took his time to explain the menu and ordering process! Definitely recommend the short rib tacos with the mojito! Glad to call this one of my go to tacos spots around union square.

My new go to for tapas style tacos that is elevated. The space is quaint and adorable, staff is welcoming and attentive. The food?!? Perfection. My kids left no plate untouched and asked for more. Summer apple salad is the perfect start to any meal- delicious apples, corn and lime is the simple combo for the perfect refreshing summer salad. We ordered grilled chicken, braised short ribs and shiitake mushroom tacos with guacamole and chips. Guac and chips were basic- missing a Touch of salt. The tacos- perfect in every way. The short ribs are def a 10/10. The grilled chicken was tender and full of flavor. Mushrooms were rich and flavorful-10/10. This is the perfect addition to Union square. Simple yet full of flavor. Must try and this will soon be your only go to.
