I would definitely recommend Noodles & Co! Their food is fresh and delicious, portions are huge and you won’t let disappointed! This was our first time there and my wife and I both had the Penne Rosa. It had a slight kick but wasn’t too spicy(just enough for flavor). The staff is also incredibly friendly! We will be back!

First time. Order the Penne Rosa with chicken and the Indonesian Peanut Sauté. The Penne Rose was good. Before I ordered the Indonesian Peanut Sauté I asked how spicy is it? The gentleman said on a scale of 1 to 5, it’s a 3. I eat hot/spicy dishes and this dish had my mouth and tummy on fire. I would say it’s a solid 5+. It’s nothing like the picture, there were hardly any veggies. For the taste, it was just hot not flavorful. I will say you pay a lot for what you get.

Love this place. Use to always eat at a noodles and company when I visit Missouri I’m so happy there is one here now. If you like spicy. I recommend the Indonesia. Peanut with chicken. Everything is really fresh and good. Our cashier tonight was really nice she was very helpful. Even checked on us to make sure we liked what we got. I will be coming here a lot.

Not sure why diners are giving this place negative reviews. The service was great and we had the Steak Stroganoff, Indonesian Peanut Sauté & Japanese Pan Noodles. And an extra order of meat balls, all were excellent. Perhaps the price may be an issue, but still food and service was very good.

One of my co-workers wanted to try this place out, so I agreed. Unfortunately, I didn’t see the other Unilocal reviews until The order was already placed. The food was average at best. There are two reasons I am giving two stars(and neither one is for the quality of food). *1 we placed an online order and I asked for one order to be split. The request was fulfilled, which made it easier for me. *2 the order was packaged and waiting for me upon my arrival. Included utensils and napkins. The employee was super nice and he offered me a handle bag to make it easier to carry. Kudos to him! The food: I am not a cook, but I could make better noodles at home. It was nothing special and not very flavorful. No need to go back again.

If your looking for a fair meal at a good price… don’t eat here. If your hungry go elsewhere. Especially don’t get the bare serving… there is nothing there. Find another place in same shopping plaza, you’ll be happy.

Wow, that was gross and the only thing«fresh» about my meal was the napkin to wipe that frozen veggie, barely saused, lump of slightly burnt noodles and Costco brand frozen meatballs. I had heard good things about the noodle company and decided to give it a try. I ordered the Japanese pan noodle bowl with a side of Korean bulgogi meatballs. I swear the cook bought Costco frozen Italian meatballs and drown them in bulgogi sauce.

Not what it is back home. Came all the way from Goodyear, AZ. I had to tell the staff what was missing from my food.

The pad thai didn’t have much flavor. It wasn’t listed as spicy but it was… The inside was really nice looking. I may give it another shot but I’m not impressed so far.

Delicious but over priced. The servings are way to small for what they charge but I have liked every thing I have gotten from their so far. I’m sure I will eat their again but I hope they either lower their pricing or give more per serving!

Went here on a Sunday for brunch and had an «Okay» experience. The sign on their door said they open at 10:30am. We walked in at 10:50 and the crew in front said to hang out for a little bit because they do not open until 11am. So that’s one star off. The cashier was a young petite lady who spoke so soft, I could barely hear what she was saying and had to ask a couple of times to repeat what she said and for her to talk a little louder. She also did not put on any smile on her face so she looked like she was so tired of her job and was not very entertaining at all. Another star off. I ordered the Pad Thai and it was an okay dish — it had more chicken and shrimp. What disappointed me most was the noodles were bland, plain and dry, as if there wasn’t any pad thai sauce so I had to go back and ask the staff for the sauce. It was okay after that. Another star off. My boyfriend got the Alfredo which tasted really good except that it was mostly veggies and meat not much noodles. The place and ambiance was great and clean. I think overall the restaurant has so much potential. I plan to check out their other dishes but probably not in the near future.

Some of the tables were not cleared, but it is probably cause they were so busy! It is very yummy and I will come back.

I came here today as I saw this driving by. At first I thought it would be like a Ramen house from the outside. Nope I was wrong. Once I entered in I saw different kinds of bowls and wasn’t too sure if I wanted to eat here. I saw one dish that caught my eye which was of course Asian fusion. So I ordered the small which came with udon noodles and steak. It was good I thought but it was not amazing though. The serving was so tiny and there was not enough noodles. I had about 4 bites and it was already gone. Very disappointed with the serving size I probably won’t be coming back anytime soon. 3 stars is for the excellent service and sweet guy at the cashier. He seemed very happy to be there and at his job.

So, I’ve only been to Noodles & Co. once before, wayyyy back in my college days and in a Columbus, Ohio location(Go Buckeyes!). I remembered it fondly so on my lunch hour today I popped in for a quick bite. Sadly, the food at this one and the price have forever replaced my fond memory of this place. I ordered a small portion of the Japanese noodles dish with grilled chicken and a small drink… almost 10 bucks. Ok, well its noodles, so at least i’ll get a lot of food and have lefovers for dinner. Wrong. I watched and he literally put a small handful of noodles in the bowl and topped with dry, flavorless grilled chicken. The sauce and the veggies in the bowl were good and it tasted fine, but seriously? Its been about 3 hours and i’m already hungry again because the portion was teeny tiny. There is no reason for that, noodles are the cheapest thing! I’ll never be back, I can spend ten bucks a lot of places around there and still have leftovers for dinner. The reason I did add a star was that the staff was super friendly and helpful. From the girl that checked on me while I was staring up at the menu to the guy cleaning the tables and asking me how my dish was, everyone was really wam and inviting. Doesn’t make up for the food and price though, pass.

So. I like pesto chicken. I tried it again, this time opted for Parmesan chicken pesto. I had hoped the chicken would have better flavor. It didn’t. I think I’ll skip the chicken next time. The portion was better. I got the regular size. It was hot, seasoned well and the noodles were cooked properly. The service was friendly as usual. They even checked in on me while eating. Just to be sure it was all ok. The front counter girl in glasses needs a raise. She was working… and doing it right.

I’ve made 2 attempts at giving this place a chance. My first attempt was a few days after their grand opening. I ordered their Alfredo MontAmore dish. This dish was extremely underwhelming. Very dry. Noodles stuck together. Wasn’t even sure I got the right dish at first as there was no Alfredo sauce to be found. Upon seeing very little Alfredo at the bottom of the bowl I figured it was the right order. I ordered the dish with grilled chicken and added shrimp. Both the shrimp and chicken were EXTREMELY dry just like the noodles were My second visit was just as disappointing as the first. If not more. This time I opted for the Pad Thai. Again, the noodles were so dry that I could stick my fork in them and pull out every single noodle which was stuck together in one large lump. I had a terrible time trying to pull them all apart to make them edible. I got the dish with shrimp and, again, I wasn’t surprised to find the shrimp extremely dry. It was supposed to have fried egg in the dish as well but I found maybe 3 or 4 small pieces of egg. Not even anything that would be considered a full egg. They topped it with 2 soggy sprigs of cilantro and a tiny dry shriveled up lime wedge which I was unable to get any lime juice out of in an attempt to moisturize my dry noodles. There was no taste of peanuts… possibly due to the fact they forgot to add them. And there was no taste of sweet chili. I think it’s safe to say I won’t be returning and unfortunately, unless this company can really do a complete 180 turnaround and fix all the issues people are complaining about, they won’t stand a chance and will be having to close their doors soon…

Our first time here tonight. The food was okay at most. You can probably buy frozen food that taste better. The prices that we were charged was not worth it. We ordered the«big» bowls, which hardly had anything in it. We left, still hungry. Probably won’t be back.

I really wish I could give 0 stars. I came in here expecting a quick, easy lunch, but this was far from it. I ordered a salad of the menu, but boy was that a mistake. After I ordered, I patiently waited for 20 minutes, during which time I watch the salad girl make the two slowest salads I’ve ever seen made. It literally took her 10 minutes per salad. While I watched in disbelief, I observed not a single cook or line person, including what appeared to be the manager wearing gloves. Horrifying. However, I figured the salad girl was using tongs at least so I continued to wait. Then, it happened. She fumbled and dropped a bowl. I watched her pick everything up off the ground and he proceed to put dropped ingredients into my salad that I had waited close to a half hour for at this point. I no longer wanted my food or food poisoning after seeing this. I desperately tried to get someone’s attention to cancel my order, but couldn’t and actually had to leave with no food and out my money!!! I will never ever be back.

If your vegetarian… vegan…or just your average HEALTHY Joe then this is your location. This is only the second location in the ENTIRE state of Arizona and I am stoked because it is within walking distance of my job. There are noodles… salads…and Sandwiches for everyone… but the NOODLES are AWESOME. I had the Japanese Pan Noodles with TOFU and while they were not as Spicy as I like they were delicious. My only complaint was the veggies… they were great but they need to include more especially for a bowl that is north of 8 bucks. Now don’t get me wrong this won’t deter me from coming to this locale in the future because I am extremely excited it is near my place of employment… however I will ask for more veggies next time. This place is located right off the Freeway(check the address above) but some people may know it as the Deer Valley Towne Center. It is located right next to the WildFlower Bread Company Restaurant which is right next to a Mattress Firm. Don’t forget to sign up for the E-Club and right now when you buy an Entrée’ you will get a coupon to take a survey to receive a free Appetizer with purchase on your next visit. So if your ever in the area and have a craving for something fresh and Healthy give these guys a try. Eat, Drink, and be Merry my Friends!!!
