Noodles Italian Cafe & Sushi Bar

I had a great experience the other day at Noodles. I went there a few times. The food is OK, but the service amazing! Taylor was very professional and personable, the combination hard to meet! I felt like was at the family dinner. Thank you! — Ella

This is a nice restaurant in a good location, though not a trendy area. I ordered a shrimp Mediterranean lunch special and it was quite good, but the waiter Andy was so flippant and in a rush that he literally threw a bread basket down on the table and kept going!
The saving grace was a sweet woman who appeared to be a bidder named Lucy. She had a huge smile on her face and was so friendly! She helped us more than our waiter did.
I might go back there and sit in a different section. I did appreciate their large selection of gluten free menu items. I’d go back to try another one someday.

What a find ! My husband wanted sushi and I wanted Italian ! Bingo ! He had seared tuna and big daddy roll ! Very delish and fresh ! The big Daddy roll was full of tuna ! I had Gorgonzola salad that filled me up so I’m coming back for the mussels tomorrow ! Edward our server was a doll — advised us on food and drinks ! Fast friendly and it was happy hour to boot ! The pasta dishes coming out look amazing !

Angela great waitress at bar. Had shashimi house wine 3.48 Martinii 3 rum & coke 3.50 great calamari 6.96 is osso bucco is 6.95 delicious Go to for happy hour lunch cheap too

5 of us dined at Noodles for Dinner. Two of us had the sushi which was fresh and delicious! 1 person had Veal Marsala which also very well prepared and delicious. 2 people had Italian dishes and they also said they were excellent. Everything was tasty and we can’t wait to go back. Great atmosphere here as well!

The Chicken & Artichoke Hearts served on Spinach Fettuccini is the BEST dish in the house. I became a fan of Noodles when they had the smaller restaurant.

Most people don’t think of Italian and Asian together, but this place pulls it off so well. The menu is majority Italian items but there is also an entire page of different types of sushi rolls. They have happy hour as well till 6PM including a I’ll list of $ 5 speciality martinis. Seemed like majority of their dishes were big enough that 2 people could split.
One thing I HIGHLY recommend is the Asian calamari. I haven’t had anything like it, but it was fantastic.

Try as I may I cannot find a culinary relationship between sushi and Italian food, and that may be the reason that it does not work.
Full disclosure I do not eat sushi so I cannot review it, but I do eat and cook Italian food and this place does not cut it as a even second rate neighborhood trattoria. Three people at our table described their plates as «edible», probably the last word a chef wants to hear as a description.
My pasta included over cooked chicken, sausage described as Cajun
But not andouille variety, and what I believe was an abundance of cayenne pepper used for heat. Another party had a shrimp dish with rubbery over cooked shrimp. Pasta was apparently dried out of box and not fresh made, it had that taste.
Service was good and atmosphere is pleasant, however, my purpose to go for dinner is to eat and it failed on that level.
Too many better Italian places to go, even carrabas is a better choice.

I’ve been here three times now, and I’ve left happy every time. The tuna and hamachi sashimi was fabulous as was the Italian fare I had as an entrée. I love that they have a low-​carb menu, and I really like the ambience. Don’t let the crowd at the door or outside fool you. They have a VERY popular happy hour, but there is almost always tables to sit down and eat. I’ve been fortunate to have had the same waiter on all of my visits, Edward — ebullient, friendly, personable and efficient. He’s a natural vibe raiser and he makes people happy. If I’m happy on two more visits, I’ll up my review to 5 stars.
Update: Took my elderly mom and dad out for my mom’s birthday. We had a different server who was also incredibly friendly. Service was much more a team effort this time and I felt there was some resentment among the servers for each other at times. Not terrible and I’m more sensitive than the average bear, but I did note that. I also noticed that one of their waiters made it a point to oggle a man and his somewhat noticeably transexual girlfriend as they arrived. They were a normal couple with the exception that the female exhibited some masculine qualities. The waiter (whom I reviewed in the past positively) was taken back by her and ran to a cohort to basically stare and point at his great discovery and punctuated the moment with a loud, «oh gawwwwddd!» OK. so someone outside the box comes in the door and this guy thinks its his duty to stare and editorialize. Hmmm. The waiters here are a macho bunch and he kept his shock and awe distanced enough from the couple that they weren’t harmed by it, but it made me question my assessment of his kindness as a mere tip-​getting strategy. Oh well. Life goes on. The dinner was good as usual. I’ll still go back and I’m not deducting stars or anything from my overall review. People are where they are. I just don’t feel as at home there as I did before, and perhaps that’s as it should be.

Service was great. Had a rainbow roll. Lackluster but ample. Noisy. Reception for a single was cool at best. Manager Waitress were beyond perfect.

I’ve been coming to noodles for 10 years, and I am delighted that every time I’ve visited it’s been a great experience. I love the sushi, as well as the pasta. I always get a veggie roll with «dynamite» on top. The sushi chef even draws me cute little pics in spicy mayo. I also really love the staff here. Their bar tenders are very attentive and friendly. The owner is always around to ensure things go smoothly. This place is a staple in my Naples diet

The sushi was alright here… It is better than most sushis I have tried, but I have definitely had better. They are quite pricey with some of their items, and they do not give you much on your plate for what you are paying. The décor is very nice as well. I would go here again if I was around Naples.

Pretty decent place. Have ate here at least 20 times. Service and food is consistent. Can get a bit pricey but not out of line. During the winter months you could face wait times. I prefer going for lunch because it’s much less crowded.

Love going here for happy hour, good food & drinks! The only problem is they allow smoking outside… best seat in the house and it is catered to the smokers.

READ THIS FIRST: The food here is like that of a diner. Both the sushi and the attempt at Italian fare.
The last time we were there was on a Thursday night and we were sitting at the bar eating sushi and were effectively rushed out because they were converting it into a Latin dance club. In fact staff told us that there are often scuffles and fights there and they even have a sheriff’s deputy standing guard out front every night because of this. In fact there were two standing out there when we left that night.
That being said the sushi in general was low quality and unimaginative. To call the guys making it «sushi chefs» is it gross overstatement. They know nothing about the food and are little more than anybody putting together a burger at McDonalds. To them it is simply an assembly line, there is no art, no love and no passion. There is also no taste or flavor. And there is no reason for you to go there for sushi. That being said the Italian food is sub-​par even for Naples.
For business reasons I’ve eaten lunch there several times recently and I am always disappointed if not straight up regretful. Not just with the food but also with service and cleanliness. Apparently it’s trying to save itself by doing business as a Latin dance club at night.

AWESOME FOOD!
5.99 all you can eat pasta for lunch.
9.99 all you can eat sushi for lunch!
HOGHLY recommend! Our server was Andy.
He was pretty funny!

Pricey but good. The best of both worlds. Sushi appetizer is great for first time sushi eaters. The bread is great and their pasta dishes are large portions.

Not the kind of place hubby and I would have wandered in to on our own, (at first we were like Italian & sushi… Wth kind of combo is that?) but we got a coupon for a free meal with our hotel stay.
It is a nice little restaurant, cool and intimate and yet suitable for large parties. Our waitress, Carrie, was a sweetheart, and superb. I hate the Pasta Bayou and hubby had a Mexican roll. We were both satisfied, and to be honest I am fighting off that ‘I just ate way too much good food’ drowsiness as I write. They serve a delicious foccacia bread, and I encourage you to try some of the bread seasoning with oil, on at least one bite. So good I can’t even think of a better description.
The patio is pleasant, although probably not so much on a hot and/​or humid day.

DELICIOUS!!!
I love the chicken and broccoli dish here for a low carb but filling option.
My boyfriend loves to get the unlimited sushi and it is a perfect place for us to go together to both get what we want AND we can even sit outside with our pup!

Very disappointing and embarrassing meal.
I brought a friend that I bragged about the food here.
My usual veggie gluten free noodles were hard, not the usual good sized portion and lacked any flavor or my delight of artichokes. Def not the same chef workin tonight.
Sent it back, still no taste, no garlic to be seen, dry. Asked for marinara sauce to help it out, server ended up charging me for it.
My friend wanted to order a dish she saw online but was told they no longer serve it and they don’t update their website. Isn’t that wonderful?
We sat outside where a heater was pointed right on me from above and I asked them to turn it down after being so warm I started sweating. If you know me, I don’t sweat! They couldn’t, even tho the next table over had a heater turned off. It was 70 degrees out.
Then (caution), there was a smoker next to out table, guess anyone can smoke outside. Thought it was me burning up at first.
Spoke with the manager when I asked for him, said I was not paying for the marinara. He took it off and took off 10% of my bill for the disappointing entrée. He should have taken it all off! It was awful.
So $ 18.95 for a small plate of a few broccoli and mushrooms with GF noodles.
What a deal, going to be quite some time before I return, if I do.
