Review by The Bookworm

Summary: Katie has a bad day.  Then she makes a wish to be anyone but herself and it comes true, but with a twist.

Nothing But Noodles (University Dr. in Huntsville, AL)

Reviewer: The Bookworm

Menu: I always get the Kids Butter Noodles with Cheese.  I love that stuff!

Taste: It's delicious!

Parking: The parking at this restaurant is not good.  The parking lot is actually really big, but there are a lot of restaurants close together and they all share the same parking lot, so it's hard to find a close spot.

Atmosphere: I don't really pay attention to this, but Dad said it was really noisy.  It's probably noisy all the times that we go, and that's why we usually sit outside.

Fun stuff: You get to use chop sticks to eat your noodles.

Weird stuff:  The weird thing is that the name of the restaurant is "Nothing But Noodles," but they have more than just noodles on the menu!  And some of their dishes don't have noodles at all.  They should call this restaurant "Mostly Noodles."

Accessibility: Especially with the parking, it was really hard for us to find a parking spot that was wheelchair accessible.  And since it's so noisy inside the restaurant, some people might be bothered by that.  There's a clear path from the door to the spot where you order, and from there to the drinks, and from there to the patio if you want to eat outside.

On a scale of 0 to 10, I would give this place a 7 because their food is delicious and it's fun to eat with chopsticks, but the parking is really terrible.
