    Great mural

    Phenomenal Italian type of eatery. Pick your pasta and sauce or your favorite sub. Great desert options as well. Staff were great. Quaint ambience with table seating indoors or outdoor.

    My overall experience and meal came out to be average. The service is lukewarm, and nothing to write home about. The setting is cute, with indoor and outdoor seating (with umbrellas.) While we were there, they didn't have ice. Only cold drinks were available from their refrigerator (cans & bottles.) I tried their Caesar salad with croutons and it was a little on the tangy side, but I still enjoyed it. The portion size is shareable. I also picked their fusili pasta with chicken and pesto. Pesto and pasta were great. Chicken was dark meat. I'm a dark meat lover, but when it comes to pasta dishes, I'm used to having white meat. If there was an option, we weren't offered one. My husband had their rigatoni with the vodka sauce and chicken and again, the pasta and sauce were great, but the dark meat chicken was a big miss for us.

    The ambience is clean and open. The service was exceptional. She even chased out some people that were not eating. The food was amazing. The pasta is made with semolina flour and you pick the pasta and you pick your sauce and there was a very good menu to choose from that was not overwhelming. The lemon vinaigrette on the salad was amazing. I had cacao Pepe sauce that was divine! Vodka rigatoni was excellent!

    Such a cute spot for a casual meal or just a cup of their soft serve gelato! Staff helped me immediately and food comes out quickly. Came for dinner on a Sunday and was able to grab a booth no problem!

    Attentive service and good food. I ordered a take out and arrived early to enjoy the gelato. It's so good with daily new flavors. The pasta is always just right. The restaurant was bright and cool with a nice play area for kids.

    Let me start by saying that the food and the service are amazing here. Vodka rigatoni was superb, with a hint of spiciness. Linguine bolognese was fantastic. Gelato is amazing as well. However, the place is not clean. Only one table in the whole restaurant was clean. The floors look like they haven't been cleaned in ages and it was extremely cold in the restaurant (according to the thermostat it was 69 degrees) We ended up sitting outside at yet another dirty table, but the weather was great so it made it a better experience.

    My hubby and I tried Noodies over at 1730 E. Speedway. He got the vodka pasta with chicken and I got the collab dish between #cookingwithcort and Noodies of Mac & Cheese w collard greens with smoked turkey it was pretty good ..FLAVOR!!!. A different take on Mac . I was full for the whole day it was around $30. The collab thing is pretty cool I plan to check out some other's around town. ‍ the service was great and the ambiance was nice.

    Hands down one of my favorite spots in Tucson! I love the food so much, the vodka sauce is my favorite! It's a casual spot with indoor and outdoor seating. Noodies is always top on my recommendation list for good, quality Tucson bites!

    I have been eyeing this place since moving here 10 months ago and can't believe it took me this long to give it a try! My daughter wanted pasta so naturally this is the first place that came to mind. Fresh, handmade pasta in Tucson! I had the vodka sauce with fusilli. Pasta was perfectly cooked. The sauce was flavorful with a little kick. I wish I had added Italian sausage after seeing it on someone else's plate! We also tried the Cacio e Pepe with fettuccini. My daughter loved it. I snuck a bite and really liked it, too. To top it all off, of course we had to try their rotating gelato flavors. We were lucky to have 2 flavors that were hard to choose between (later realized we could have mixed them - great idea). The flavors were cheesecake and cookie butter. We went with cookie butter and they really nailed the flavor. I also wish we had added some toppings but I wanted to try it as is for my first visit. So tasty. Excited to come back for different flavors! Lastly, the vibe and ambiance was great. Not too busy, cool decor, it's got that Italian feel. LOVED that they have a small kids area with books and a few toys. It's small, but a little goes a long way with little ones. Always appreciated as a mom! Overall, a great experience and I can't wait to go back and try more.

    Quick fresh pasta!

    Okay this is on the level of Jon & Vinny's-if you're from LA! Delicious home made noodles and perfectly made sauce! The vodka sauce was so good, but a bit too spicy for me-still delicious - but glad to have a bite of mozzarella afterwards. I personally did bucatini noodles with Cacio e Pepe! So good. Was so tempted to get a sandwich but was told I gotta get the pasta! (I will be back for the sandwich!) Yes- worth coming here and the seating is no frills casual and w/kids play area. You order first and they bring to you. So that's a bit more casual than the service of J&V's. It's up there with the other Pasta place I rated near downtown off Congress. Dee-lish!

    Pasta made the way YOU like it ! The owners of Ceres have yet another great food experience for us . Noodies was able to customize everything I ordered to be vegan . They have several options . The tomato basil sauce is delicious ! I love that their portions aren't outta control and you wont leave feeling stuffed and bloated. They make fresh pasta in house and you can taste the passion in every bite . Plenty of gelato and dessert to choose from. ( no vegan desserts )This is a low key casual type of dining . Don't forget to grab some cute swag in the way out .

    After the Tucson Street Fair. Always great and today no different. I know this is near campus, but today it was really flooded with co-eds. Maybe they decided they wanted good pasta without cooking.

    Vegan special for September. Was much better once the missing sage was added. Still missing toasted almonds.

    Cute place with fun changing gelatos and sorbets and housemade pasta. My experience dining here was disappointing though. I came in especially for a special they advertised for the month of September, a day before the last day they said it would be available. I ordered and paid but when I got it it looked different and seemed boring comparing to what I expected. So I looked online and realized that two ingredients that made this special dish exciting for me were missing (fried fresh sage leaves and toasted almonds). When I inquired about the missing sage and almonds I was told they were out of them and didn't want to acquire more since the special is close to ending. This was strange to me as they still were selling it without mentioning this so I can decide if I still want it. They did put a sign after I already ordered saying out of almonds. I was surprised to not be notified that they were missing ingredients for what I ordered and don't feel that it's a fair way to treat customers. They did end up finding that they had sage and added that for me. The person at the front didn't seem like they understood why I would want to receive what I ordered as described but they did refund me when I requested which I appreciated. The dish was fairly boring without the crispy fried sage but once the sage was added it was much more interesting. I can see how the almonds would have added some interesting texture too. Food was decent but I was not impressed by the business practice of not letting customers know they will not receive what they ordered and paid for. On a more positive note, I have had their sorbet soft serves a bunch of times and enjoyed them. My general rating system: 1 star: I would stay away 2 stars: Has some good things about it but I generally don't recommend. 3 stars: Pretty good. I wouldn't go out of my way to go back but a decent place 4 stars: Great place. I would go back. 5 stars: I highly recommend stopping whatever you are doing and making plans to try it out! An Evie favorite!

    The food was good. Nice child area. Times are tough, and tips are minimal; however, could this constitute messing up my order twice.

    My favorite ice cream shop! They've got so many yummy flavors! Don't forget to ask for a sample if…read moreyou aren't sure which one to get! Somehow, I always order the same flavors, but still end up sampling 2 or 3 different flavors! The ice cream servers are so friendly and patient! Bless their little hearts for putting up with me being so indecisive sometimes. lol. Anyways, my go to is the sweet cream honeycomb, with either the rocky road or the bacon & bourbon if I'm feeling a bit boozy (yes, that last one has some bourbon in it) in a waffle cone. They've got something for everyone! Coffee and espressos, ice cream floats, sundaes, banana splits, even a pizzookie concoction (Farmhouse) that's big enough to share with a couple friends! Not sure which flavor to go with, get the ice cream flight! Definitely a place to keep coming back to! Especially to try all the wonderful flavors they offer!

    This place is seriously dangerous for ice cream lovers. It's convenient and tasty. I've been coming…read morehere for years and I love that there are so many locations now, so you have many choices as to where you can get your ice cream fix! There are many flavor options and even a couple of non-dairy choices. The service is a bit hit-or-miss, and really just depends on the staff there at the time as well as the specific location. Beyond the regular cones and cups they also have some options such as the flight, nachos, and the banana split. They also specific which flavors have gluten. They used to advertise that their dairy came from grass-fed cows, but that stopped a few years ago so I'm guessing that is no longer the case. While that's what caught my attention and actually got me in the door, I've stayed a customer because they do mention that their dairy comes from cows that have not been given antibiotics or hormones. So for those who pay attention to such things, take note! This locations is pretty small but I do like that they have just a couple of outdoor tables with chairs so that I can sit outside when it's nice weather.
