Noodles & Company

I have gotten the Thai dishes when I have been here. They used to have a beef Mac and cheese. That was yummy. My kids usually like the regular Mac and cheese. Clean tables. The new soda machine with the 100 flavors.

Our first time here and we tried BBQ mac n cheese, Beef Stroganoff, Pesto cavatappi, Korean meatball side and pot stickers. The restaurant was clean and the people were very friendly. Our food came out very quickly which was nice. The Beef stroganoff was very good and meat was tender. The Pesto cavatappi was good with chicken breast. We did not care for the BBQ mac n cheese, the cheese sauce tasted artificial. We also did not care much for the pot stickers, little too greasy. The Korean meatballs were very good. We will be back to try the Japanese and Thai noodles.

Where to begin… restaurant is open, modern, nice atmosphere. Staff was very nice.
Tons of options, so if you are coming with a group everyone can get what they want from Mac and cheese to Pad Thai. I had a chopped Chinese salad for lunch and couple of days ago. It was passable so thought I would try dinner tonight.
I ordered the pot-​stickers and Thai Hot Pot. Life went downhill from there. Soup and pot-​stickers arrived together. Fast food… so gave that part a pass. The toasted flat bread that is shown on the menu board on the plate underneath the soup bowl. No plate… so guess what??? My toasty bread is in my soup… so now I have soggy toast. I ask the guy who brought my meal if that was normal to put the bread in the soup… as I’m holding up drippy soggy bread… most likely making a yuk face. He said yes… that is normal. Didn’t ask if I wanted a replacement. Didn’t really need all the bread, I have pot-stickers…so just put the soggy piece aside.
Assuming my soup was steaming hot and needed to rest a minute, I went in for the pot-​stickers. Those have a very nice flavor, but we’re just barely room temperature inside. The dipping sauce was very good and had a nice amount of red pepper heat.
After one pot-​sticker decided to try the soup. Nice presentation with sliced red hot peppers, spinach, chicken and shredded pork. The broth was flavorful just a tad too sweet for me. The chicken was grilled a bit too long and dry. It had a nice flavor.
My two stars comes from the lack of heat on the soup and the pot-​stickers. I should have noticed when my soup arrived, no steam or even close to steam was coming from the bowl. Sure enough it, like the pot stickers was barely above room temperature. Slightly warmer… but I left over half the broth and some good veggies because it got too cold to enjoy.
Bowl of soup, 3 pot-​stickers and a drink $ 15. I could have eaten at any number of restaurants with table service for that price. Not worth the money. Sorry Noodles… you need to do a little better.

Today I ordered a side Caesar and the featured dish: the Thai Hot Pot. I have to say it was a little dissapointing. It was not enough to fill me up for lunch. And I’m not a big eater at lunchtime. The flavors were okay. The soup was really spicy, but lacking. They forgot the flathead that was supposed to come with the dish. The meat was scarce, no lime wedge and just lacking ingredients. It was the size of an appetizer soup.

I have gone here often. I can honesty say I have never had a bad meal. They have gluten free options and the gf dishes actual taste really awesome. You can combine any noodle (I prefer rice not the corn mixed noodles because they are GF) … with any sauce (if you have allergies they have really handy allergen menus so be sure to check first) food is cooked fresh. staff is very helpful.. clean restaurant and clean food it is a little more than fast food chains cause you are getting a lot more… real food fast not processed food…

This place is ok if you are in a hurry for a quick lunch and everyone can’t decide what they want for lunch. Usually pretty clean inside. I feel like their portions have shrunk over time. They said their bowls just got bigger. Doesn’t make sense to me. I know I was full when I had the Thai hot before this visit and this last time I was still hungry. I personally think their food lacks in flavor and their version of spicy is not spicy. All in all its ok, it’s a chain…

Disappointing. Was shopping at BJ’s, so decided to have lunch at Noodles & Co first. Ordered the Indonesian noodles and husband had the Japanese Udon bowl. Both dishes were way too sweet and did not taste remotely like authentic dishes. SE asian noodle dishes are generally balanced in flavors of hot-​sour-​salty-​sweet and usually loaded with fresh herbs. The Indonesian noodles were just sweet and they only give you a teeny tiny slice of lime with about 8 cilantro leafs. Thank god they had Sriracha sauce. The udon noodles were about ¼ inch diameter and were extremely gummy, again a very sweet sauce. We also made the mistake of ordering the mini pizza Margarit. Pathetic. Tasted like something made in a microwave. This was our first experience at a Noodle & Co restaurant. Had a bad feeling when I saw they also served Italian pasta. Can’t imagine going again any time soon.

Noodle and company is a good chain but this one is a weak link. At first we thought it was closed midday because no one was to be seen. No staff. No customers. After a couple of minutes someone came laughing out of the back to take the order.
It was a bit of a task to find a seat. Previous diners trash was littered over a good amount of tables.
I got the thai curry soup which I have had numerous times at other locations. This one was definitely off. It was overly cinnamony and the veggies were over cooked. The cheese bread was undercooked and pale. My friends chicken was good but the wrap it was in was not.

I had seen this place open up and asked around about it — another chain with noodles in it. I have been dying for a mom and pop restaurant with authenticity.
Noodles and Company deliver salads, sandwiches and Soups — there is no genre of food for this chain, it seems that they cater to Italian with a Spaghetti and meatballs dish, a pad thai for thai flavour and a Wisconsin Mac and Cheese. This kind of food selection turns me off immediately however I received a coupon in the mail for a free Entrée and so I though if it’s on the house, then I’ll drive up and check it out.
Restaurant atmosphere is clean and simple — upon arrival I noticed that their serving bowls are a clean white porcelain and nicely presented.
I approached the counter — they were definitely not busy — although situated right next to Buffalo wild wings, who happened to be packed on this Friday afternoon.
The server was a gem and allowed me to try the Featured Thai Hot Pot, which I asked to take out. Since it was my first time in there and I was getting a free meal, the gentleman gave me a free drink to welcome me in. Very Sweet!
They have one of the newer fountain drink machines where you can add flavours to your soda. He packed up my meal and added soy, sriracha and chilli powder to my take away bag and included a menu for future visits.
As for customer service — 5 Stars
Now about the food. The broth is really sweet — very sugary but very light for having a coconut curry broth. I make a better broth than that, but in any case it is a chain and this is America — so sugar here we come. The rice noodles and brisket were cooked perfectly and although this dish lacked a lot of powerful pungent flavours like a traditional Thai hot pot may include.
It was served with an «asian flatbread»??? Which makes no sense to me — just a little gimmick to make you feel like spending $ 8.59 on this dish maybe seem worth it. It doesn’t go with the meal.
I think the menu is heavily overpriced, but just like everyone else we all have our own tastebuds. I can’t see me spending money on this place or recommending it as a place to go eat. The service was amazing, but if you want Thai — Go to Thai Inter in San Souci Plaza, Italian (and I can’t believe I’m actually saying this) go to Olive Garden in California (I can’t stand olive garden but you get more bang for your buck there) and if you want Mac and Cheese — Go to Walmart. If you want Japanese that isn’t going to cost you an arm and a leg ‘Sake’ in Lexington park has $ 7.99 all you can eat lunch buffet with fresh sushi and other asian condiments.
Thanks for the free meal Noodles & Company, but you’re just not my spot

One of my favorite spots here in Southern Maryland. Every time I go there I get the pot stickers and the Indonesian peanut sauté. As usual, they were both awesome! The peanut sauté dish has a little bit of a kick to it on the back end, but its still good. The pot stickers are awesome as well and the dipping sauce is excellent. I even pour the remaining sauce on my noodles to add a little extra as well.
The place is always pretty clean and the service is always pleasant. If your in the area, stop by, its pretty good.

They have a good amount of tables, but they haven’t been cleared which left only ¼ of tables available. Food was great! I agree it is a little pricey for what you get but it is good and fast!

This place is good for a quick meal. It’s a little pricey for what you’re given, but the food tastes great regardless. I ordered potsitickers and coconut curry noodles with chicken. I probably wouldn’t get the potsitickers again, but I would definitely get the coconut curry again.
The potsitickers were alright. They were your basic potsitickers you can get from the store, but they try to make it look different by flattening them. Fooled me until I bit into them.
The noodles was the selling point. Although pricey for the portion, I really liked what I was given. It was relatively low on calories and it tasted authentic and delicious. I love coconut curry, and they delivered.
I wouldn’t come here again just to save money, But I definitely wouldn’t mind eating here if I were taken by a coworker. I would probably stick to just noodles and avoid the side dishes as well. Perhaps even ask for more noodles. They should be able to do that, just look at their name lol.

My vegan girlfriend loves this place.
I think it’s a little expensive, and the portions are a bit small, but the flavor’s a step above the fast-​food chain look it gives.
I’ve been to some other «hot wok» chains, and they weren’t nearly as good, so consider this the best-​in-​class.

Tried this place for the first time on a road trip. Worst curry I’ve ever tasted. Watery and had a flavor similar to grapefruit. I’ll stick to authentic Thai in the future.

I never had noodle & co anywhere else but here. After a year of driving past them, my husband and I thought we’d give it a try. It’s actually not so bad. They are pretty expensive, but what isn’t nowadays. I have only tried their «The Med» sandwich and their Indonesian Peanut Sauté. The sandwich was meh. Their indo peanut sauté on the other hand is delicious. Can be a little dry at times, but overall pretty good. If you want to spend a few extra bucks for a few pieces of chicken, I’d recommend adding grilled chicken to it. That’ll bring your meal to about $ 9. No drink. So yeah a little steep, but once in a while won’t kill me or you. :) unless you’re allergic to peanuts.

Don’t be put off by the chain-​restaurant look. We had bagkok curry, pad thai, and thai curry soup. All were really good, a bit spicy, offered us soy sauce and sriracha. Coolest soda machine around. Great, friendly service. Clean and their didn’t overcook their vegetables.

A brief ode to being average:
I’m generally against chain restaurants, but sometimes one is reminded of their virtues. In a rural area where local business are sparse and on a holiday when nothing’s open and you don’t know what to get, when you need a meal to tide you over, there’s Noodles & Co.
It tastes the same as every other Noodles (and at this location, the greens in the side salad were a tad past their prime), but it’s a real meal with different food groups, a customizable menu with sensitivity to special dietary considerations, and it tastes like real food. Also, not expensive.
Just off of the region’s major thoroughfare (Three Notch Road) and close to the entrances to the military base, this is a handy find if you’re in the area and don’t know what to eat. It’s a decided step up from the other fast food and chain restaurants that dot the strip. Take comfort, Noodles and Co, you earned those three stars.

Service was great. Food was good and came out fast. They ran out of egg noodles, but were really accommodating. Everything was clean except water on the bathroom floor. Spicy Pad Tai is spicy. Salad was crisp. We love the soda machine.
