Noodles & Company

Disappointing off the bat, broken oily stroganoff sauce. The Japanese pan noodle with added chicken and extra broccoli had zero chicken and little broccoli. It is clearly just made in advance buffet food that they assemble and serve. The «steak» is a lot like the crap in Taco Bell food. The fajita chicken they brought later was clearly pre-​cooked, and stored cold then reheated on demand. Which adds to the disappointment because it takes only a moment to cook fajita chicken fresh from raw. Topeka ruins yet another good concept with poor execution.

Worst management ever. Also I receive food poison so if want to spend all night in a er. I would recommend stay away

Came for lunch. Workers were very nice. Clean restaurant. Food was fresh; I had the Bangkok Curry. Will be back again!

Had the Japanese Pan Noodles with chicken. I’ve had it a a few times now. It’s good. Chewy noodles, sweet soy, fresh veggies, crunchy bean sprouts, chicken was a little dry and it’s a bit pricey for lunch, but I plan on going back because I want to try the Chinese Chicken Chop salad.

Great place to go if you are with someone and cannot agree on what kind of cuisine you’d like. Definitely LOTS of options here and usually I’m very happy with my selection. It can get kind of pricey but it’s worth it once in awhile.

Super friendly stuff great food reasonable prices fast service clean facility … I really liked it. I’m not a fan of fast food but sometimes I just don’t want a elaborate dinner at a restaurant … So I choose this place for a healthy in between ;)

This was my first experience with Noodles. I had thoroughly checked out the online menu before my visit, deciding what I’d order for my first meal. Being a new joint in town, there was some anticipation before the first visit. Noodles offers lot of variety on the relatively simple menu, and a lot to contemplate. Soup, salad, bread, drinks, and which type of cuisine: Asian, Mexican/​Southwest or American. Go check it out if you haven’t already.
When we arrived, it was quite busy, as expected. The staff was friendly enough, considering the chaos. They were obviously overstaffed, but everyone seemed to be occupied and doing something so it wasn’t a bad thing. When you get there, you walk around the perimeter of the dining area to where they take your order. Once they take it, you get a number and your cups if you’ve ordered a drink, and follow the chute out where it basically leads to a drink station. There was a line at the drink station — like I said, it was busy. My husband and I each tried on of the brewed teas. I can’t remember exactly what they were, but one was a black tea, and the other was green. I think they both had a fruity/​flowery essence. Probably both had herbs infused in them, and NOT sweet. Nice, and blended well with the ambience of the place.
Once we were seated, I had plenty of time to look around before our food was delivered. (It was busy and we probably waited over 15 minutes.) Upon reflection, it occurs to me the designer probably took the color of spaghetti noodles and built the color scheme off of it… there was one wall that was distinctly «spaghetti noodle» color, accented with greens, and rose and brown colors, all in that same muted and «organic/​healthy» color group. The colors didn’t dampen the noise though — but seriously, it wasn’t as bad as HuHot or Chipotle noise levels. We could actually have a conversation here without much fuss.
The staff was there but unobtrusive through the whole meal. No complaints on that front.
So the food. I ordered Bangkok Curry. They asked, so I went ahead and added on the pork since it was my first visit and was curious if it would add to the dish. Don’t bother — I think the Bangkok Curry stands alone. It doesn’t need the heavy pork on it at all. Hubby ordered the Japanese Pan Noodles. We both enjoyed it and I LOVED the flavor of mine. The coconut with the curry and all the perfectly cooked veggies were just what I needed that day. Perfectly cooked and just the right amount. Yum. Hubby really enjoyed his too, and we decided in a month or two, we’d be back to try it again. I’ll be after the Thai Curry Soup on my next visit. Or maybe the Pad Thai.
So, all in all, it was a pleasant experience, albeit very busy. There’s something on the menu to please every palate and the prices are reasonable — under $ 15 for a large meal for two. I’m giving it four stars because I only give 5 to the places that WOW me. Very much enjoyed this, but wasn’t WOWed.

I was very disappointed. I am hoping that it was mediocre because they just opened and are trying to work the kinks out. I ordered the Pad Thai with shrimp, and basically it tasted just like those box dinners you get at the supermarket. My daughter had their spaghetti and meatballs and seemed to like it, but she’s 5, so who knows. Way over priced for what you get. Sad, I had high hopes for this place.
