I ate at this Noodles and co once 3 years ago, and it's probably going to end up being my main location because the 2 closest to me closed. Starting to think the company screwed themselves over changing their potsticker recipe. :( read more

I didn't catch his name, but the older gentleman who was putting the orders together is awesome! I'm not feeling well, so for him to have left such an impression was even more impressive! As soon as I opened the door he greeted me like I was a long lost friend. I couldn't help but smile and I noticed his co-workers were too. I work in food service, so I appreciate the energy and positivity so so much! Today was his first shift back after a car accident & you could tell he was in pain, but he maintained a great attitude. He should be commended as he is an ambassador for your company. Kudos to him. read more

I don't typically rate fast food as 5 stars, but Noodles & Co was great today. I'm traveling, off kilter personally and forgot to add chicken to my dish. They went out of their way to fix it for me, with my gluten- free sensitivity, immediately. Such great service and the made to order food really is delicious. Thanks!! read more

Outside seating area and plenty of parking. Food has always been fast and tasted good. They even asked about our extra cheese to clarify which kind of cheese! Good customer service. read more

I like Noodles. Fresh ingredients, food made to order, and menu variety. I especially like the Japanese Pan Noodles. This location had a sign in the door about reduced hours due to staffing. On top of reduced hours, the entire place needs a serious deep-clean. If the trade-off to no-staffing is cleanliness, count me out. Food 4*. Service 3*. Cleanliness 2*. read more

I Love love love this food. Every time I come it's delicious. The parm chicken is my favorite.

Noodles and Company is decent for lunch but for dinner I wouldn't really come here. The appearance to the meals looks good if you get the Japanese Pan Noodles they will put parsley and other vegetables to make it look pretty. I've tried a variety of things at Noodles and Company and I always just tend to stick with what I like most (Japanese pan noodles) because the beef stroganoff, mac and cheese and pad thai didn't cut it for me. What I like most about the Japanese pan noodles is the texture of flavor of them. You can also add any protein like chicken, shrimp, or tofu. As some people already said the prices are a bit high for a meal but they give you a good portion for that price. I had a good amount of noodles in my bowl to last me for a while. It doesn't hurt to try them if you haven't already tried Noodles and Company. read more

Yet another place I simply cannot believe I haven't already reviewed. They seem to come in batches- for a few weeks Yelp tells me they are new to me, when I know I have already written about them. Hm... Anyway, it's decent. We come here once in a long while, for convenience and simplicity. If I want Chinese and she wants Italian, we're set. All of the noodle dishes are good- plenty of noodles, cooked just right, plus fresh veggies and your choice of protein. The sides are less-satisfying, in my experience, but not bad. And there are huge rice krispie treats This time she got penne, and I got Thai curry. Nice comfort food, essentially. Plus I tried the Korean meatballs. Decent meatballs, in a slightly-reminiscent-of-Korean sauce. Service was great (minimal, but friendly and fast.) Prices are a bit high, but you do get a lot of food. The place is clean and comfy. The food is good and somewhat healthy. I'm sure we'll be back. read more

Fast casual describes this restaurant. It's not the best you will ever have nor the worst you will ever have. That's why this restaurant gets 3 stars from me. This restaurant addresses my hunger issue without much fuss. I prefer the BUFF bowls that do not have noodles and a bowl full of vegetables and meat, or no meat if that's your preference too. The best part of the dining experience is the drink machine. Make your own drink from soda or a water base and mix in flavors like peach, raspberry, strawberry, lemon, lime. Grab a bite to eat and keep it moving. read more

Never had a bad meal here. Kinda pricey, but it's all made fresh to order and there are literally endless possibilities and combinations to choose from. I recently tried their shrimp scampi with zucchini noodles and it was cooked to perfection and so delicious. I love that they have the fancy digital fountain drink machine where you can choose all sorts of Coca-cola concoctions. It's the only place around where I can get a vanilla diet coke - my fave! I also think their mac and cheese is pretty fantastic if you are seeking comfort food. read more

Whenever I'm done eating a Noodles & Company bowl, I often ask myself, "why don't I go back there more often?" They offer a variety of Asian and Italian pasta/noodle bowls - some healthy, some not so healthy. It's a small walk-in get in/get out kind of place where you order, pick up, and keep moving. I stopped in for lunch this week and went to my go-to: the Penne Rosa bowl. Think Panda Express bowl but with pasta. They filled it to the brim and it hit the spot. At Noodles & Company, you can keep it vegetarian or add chicken for an extra $2. This is where I start to go downhill a bit with this place. Now I tend to probably be more price conscious than most when eating out and I feel Noodles & Company, while tasty, is a bit off track here. Adding extras takes a solid get-more-for-your- money $4.50 bowl to $6.50 before drinks. Ehhh...not crazy about that in this scenario for what this place is. While I enjoy the parmesan crusted chicken, I wouldn't say it is the highest quality - its taste is comparable to KFC. I generally fix pasta at home but if I'm in a mood for the professional grade, I slant Piada. I get a lot more food and also have more choices for sauce and toppings. I am not an Asian noodle guy - and for $6 I can go to China Express and get a lot more food plus a can of soda if I have a Chinese food fix. So at the end of the day, there is not a lot to sway me to Noodles & Company compared to other options out there - but in fairness, I don't know that I am their ideal customer either. read more

I sent my daughter in tonight to order my food, in the process, the order was mixed up. I called back and spoke to a shift manager. She was polite & more than willing to remake my entree. I appreciate that especially in the world we are in today, people can be so rude. Not here they we're extremely nice & I'm grateful for that. My food was made correctly & it was hot and really good. I definitely would recommend this team. read more

This is a fabulous location. Service here is always fast and friendly and out of the many times that we're visited they have never got our order wrong. It's not as large as some other locations but there is plenty of seating and it is clean. I'm a lover of Noodles & Company and this is one of my two favorite locations. read more

It's okay. Big bowl of noodles. I don't quite get the obsession with what is essentially a gimmick. A bowl of noodles! So clever! Different toppings! ...said by a guy that likes Chipotle. I guess it's just "too much" noodle for me, and not enough substance. I went with some guys from work, and *al* of our bowls looked like a lot of noodles, not much substance. The service was good - but the food... well, I'm glad I've waited this long to try it. read more

Spent $60 for food which was the Worst I've ever had! Don't waste your money, nothing was good period..

Maybe they're not all that busy because they didn't complete the ordering process. I thought the order time was short then I realized she didn't ask what type of protein I wanted with my Penne Rosa. So I ended up with a bowl of noodles and some sauce. Because other ingredients like spinach & mushrooms were more than a little light. Approximately 4 1/2 leafs of spinach, & 1/2 a mushroom. Maybe Wednesday is the day before the produce guy delivers. Maybe I am looking like a vegetarian today with the camouflage shorts & unshaven for 5 days. Peace man, yeah but I like some chicken with me Penne Rosa. :o) But hey its a beautiful day & who needs the extra calories. read more

I don't know if it's fair to say that this is the best Noodles fast food place chain there is, since they're the only one I know of. But I tell you what: I can't imagine there is another business that could do it any better. What a concept! Different noodle dishes that cross the lines of cultural influences and styles. If you can think of a dish that you've enjoyed with noodles in it, you're sure to find a dish here to enjoy! While our young daughters opt for a simple dish such as mac and cheese or buttered noodles, my wife and I enjoy their Italian-influenced dishes and their Asian-influenced dishes as well. You can "up the spicy" on any dish, but know that some dishes start off spicier than others. For example, the Indonesian Peanut Saute is great for you spicy fans. If you're more of an Italian fan, the Pesto Cavatappi hits the mark every single time. I don't know how healthy the food is here: to be honest I've never checked. But it tastes great and it doesn't feel the way it feels to eat your typical drive-through fast food. They have side salads and soups and you may also add a protein (meat or tofu) to any dish they offer. I know this place has something for everyone. Such a simple concept, but a winning one! read more

service and atmosphere is nice but the food was borderline abusive. The max and cheese is worse than Kraft with the powder cheese. Shrimp tasted over cooked and like it had been sitting out since yesterday. The Korean meatballs were good though. Definitely won't be coming back read more

Yummmy!!! Had the zucchini noodles pesto with chicken. So tasty and filled me up. I was stuffed! Very clean place. We will be back for sure!

Service was great and food was really good. They have a pretty diverse menu and everyone can surely find something they can enjoy. I do think the price is a little high relative to their portion size and considering this is semi- fast food (you order at the counter and find a seat, then the food is brought out to you). Seating arrangement in dining room isn't exactly the best. There aren't too many seats and the booths are not the most comfortable. We sat at a table that was right next to the soda machine and that was just a little awkward. Overall i would give it a four star. I would recommend it and certainly will visit again when I need noodles! read more

Food was good service was really nice. Wish we had one of these where I live. I got the steak stroganoff bowl. It was good but didn't have the sour cream stroganoff taste I'm used to. Had a lot and I mean a lot of garlic flavor. Overall really good. read more

I come to this location often (i abso love their food) and out of all the times I've been here my order was only wrong once. I came in to speak to someone and was met with the most pleasant young girl in glasses at the cash reg who was nothing short of polite, and jsut all around pleasant! she quickly got a manager who also was VERY polite, understanding and beyond helpful! she is a blonde and has purple hair (sorry I didn't catch her name) she didn't make me feel bad for getting the order fixed and was so cool about my fiancé being on speaker phone explaining the situation. Not only bc of their amazing food but bc of the two of these ladies and their AWESOME customer service!!!! read more

Been a long time customer but no more...this place is now run or managed by kids that have no manners or get all the orders wrong. I wanted to support & my kids love the buttered noodles here but the last few times is enough. I can't support this anymore & every time I order to go it's either wrong, missing something, or food is not edible where I just throw it in the trash. I'm not one to waste food but seriously taste & prep has a lot to do with this. There's others that my kids can do. I'd come back if they changed their ways of management. read more

Noodles and Company is okay, but it could be sooooo much better with just a few changes. First of all, it can be very hit or miss between restaurants. The Gahanna branch that I'm reviewing is one of the better ones in town, so be aware this review doesn't translate to the one across from Graceland which really deserves it's own two star review. I generally order the mac and cheese, although they have several other great tasting options. If you order a trio you get one pasta dish, with an add on of protein (I like the Italian Chicken) and a soup or salad. The salads are pretty meager so I get the tomato soup and I have to say it's some of the tastier soup around. You can also get large rice krispie treats for dessert which is a tasty way to end things. All in all, Noodle and Company isn't anything particularly special but it's good enough for a day when you're in the mood for pasta and too lazy to make it yourself. read more

After a morning at nearby World of Bounce, the kids were hungry and we (my kids, my friend, and her 2 kids) chose Noodles and Co. to satisfy everyones hunger and one kiddo's picky palate. I hadn't been in maybe 5 years, and I was surprised to see there had been a pretty major change to the menu. I want to share with my Yelp buddies the current state of the menu! As I recall, and again it has been a while, there was more of DIY style happening, like pick your pasta, select what general style of cuisine you're it the mood for (Asian noodles, Italian noodles, etc.), and add whatever proteins and veggies you want. Well, I was wrong, because what they have now is a bit more of a set menu. They offer pre-designed selections of pasta bowls, for which you can pick your protein, or sub out spinach for the pasta (called a BUFF Bowl). I enjoyed by Whole Grain Tuscan Fresca with shrimp and would order it again. The small was plenty when ordered with a small (slightly overdressed) caesar salad. I would order it again. There isn't technically a kids menu, but they happily split a large macaroni and cheese and it was pretty darn good and plenty for the two kiddos. You can also add protein to that if you'd like. Next time we are headed to WOB, we will likely visit again for the healthy options and quick service. read more

RICE. KRISPY. TREAT. Huge. Delicious. There is something a bit different about them, I think it's a bit of OJ. Soft and malleable. $1.50. Worth it. I also enjoy the caesar salad. It's a strong dressing, but very tasty, and as close to authentic as you'll find at a fast food joint. As for the main dish, I waiver between the parmesan chicken and braised beef (a la stroganoff). It's a good place to grab a fresh hot meal that isn't McJunk. read more

Very weird experience at Noodles. Staff was miserable, not a clean table in the entire restaurant, slow service and building was falling apart. I imagine the building is undergoing a renovation but you would think they would clearly state that to guests... i.e. "Please pardon our dust." Could be a great restaurant with good management /leadership. read more

Always a fan of new fast food options that make you feel better than McDonalds and all that other garb I talked my husband into going to Noodles & Co, promising he would not have to eat noodles and yes there are meat options as well. He had the bacon mac n cheeseburger which he enjoyed and my son had the mac n cheese which was also good. He also enjoyed the wisconsin cheesesteak, good the guys are happy now on to me. I had the chinese chop salad and the med sandwhich and loved them both! It tasted very fresh and of good quality, made to order any way you like it. I almost overlooked that they had potstickers so I made my way back in line and had to get some as well, an\d I also loved those. I am so thankful that there are finally other great options to your regular burger joints like Noodles, Piada and yummy locals like Cinco, all worth checking out when you want something cheap and fast and not leave feeling like a greasy mess who needs a nap stat! read more

Good service and standard Noodles & Co food. The employees were really nice and the place was clean. I love getting the Bangkok entree and they recently just tested a nice Chicken Tikka Masala dish that was extremely flavorful take on the typical dish. It was served on orza pasta instead of jasmine rice. read more

I was very impressed with this location. The customer service is amazing. First off, they did something for my family they didn't have to do last night. When we went to pick up our order, we were early and they apologized for not having it ready, which was completely unnecessary on their part. Also, they are incredibly fast when making orders. I was just very impressed by the kitchen and everyone that was working last night. I highly recommend this noodles if you like these. I got pad thai last night and although it wasn't authentic, it definitely didn't suck. I think they're a little overpriced for they what they offer, I paid $11.50 for a regular bowl with chicken and a drink. That's a little much but hey it wasn't bad food. Again, I can't say enough about the service last night. It was on point. read more

This place was super average, nothing special about it. I was excited to come here because I've never been, but was disappointed in how Plain Jane it was. Our cashier was quiet and hard to hear, and all the table were dirty so we had to wipe them off ourselves! I gave this place three stars (instead of two) because they had a fun coke machine with all the different flavors! The food was just ok, there's lots of options which was nice. I don't see myself coming back soon. read more

First, let's realize what this place is - fast food noodles. And for that, it does a very good job. Every time I've been here, I've gotten exactly what I ordered, with lots of flavor served quickly. I usually go for the dependable - mac and cheese (which they do really well with shredded cheese on top of the dish) or buttered noodles (tough to mess that up.) Today I got brave and ordered the Pad Thai. Yes, if this was more of an evening sit-down have a drink restaurant I would have given this 3 stars. But for fast food, this was excellent - shrimp cooked perfectly (and a lot of shrimp) and the Pad Thai was sweet and flavorful as expected. With a side of mac and cheese (couldn't resist) total lunch bill was about $10 (water, please, I'm avoiding any soft drinks) and was worth every penny. read more

Ate here a few times. This place has gone down hill since first opening. There are about 20 tables in the restaurant. Maybe 5 tables were clean. There was one worker taking orders another was eating and talking on the phone. After we ordered and sat down, there weren't enough tables clean vs patrons. The food is avg. There are plenty of other places to eat in this area that have a cleaner environment and better service. read more

Thankful is the word that comes to mind when I think of Noodles & Co! I stumbled across it the day I moved to my new apartment- which is a minute's walk from N&C. Since then it has become my go to place for lunch. I actually go there couple of times a week. Penne Rosa is my favorite at the moment. But there are tons of other dishes that I want to try. They have so many vegetarian options..yay!! It is so refreshing to see a place that offers such good food for such reasonable prices. I mean less than $6 for a meal that tastes fresh and yumm! I really hope they maintain the quality going forward. read more

This was my first time to a Noodles and Co. And I can ssy I won't be back. I got the Japanese pan noodles and there wss enough salt to kill a cat. I ordered a regular size and my dish was about half empty. I don't know what I expected but I wanted more than four pieces of broccoli and five carrot slices. The kid garnishing the dishes was spending more time texting than serving... is that even sanitary? Besides the salt content, the noodles tasted just "okay." First and last attempt eating at this chain. read more

1. $30 for 3 meals is overpriced for noodles in a bowl. 2. Chicken pram was over cooked with the skin separate from the meat. Portion was 1/2 normal amount. 3. Novelty Coke machine is cool but usually is out of flavored syrups. Tried 3 combos that we're terrible. Machine must receive no maintenance. Used to love this place, will not go anymore. read more

Been going there for about 2 years and as of lately the inconsistencies are incredible. Sometimes I'll receive a decent portion of vegetables/noodles/protein and other times it looks pathetic. I've complained about this before and typically they will try to make it right by giving me a free bowl on my next visit. Last week, they assured me the portion of protein was correct after I complained about receiving a mere 4 pieces of steak in my entire bowl. I also ordered a side salad and received 1/4 of an ounce of dressing in the container. Turns out, this was the "proper" portion. Will not be wasting my money on this establishment ever again. read more
