Noodles & Company

Cashier and waitress/waiter are efficient and nice.  Food is decently priced without extra meat.  The extra meat charge is a bit much.  The menu lists all of the ingredients that are in each meal, which makes it easier to order for individuals with food allergies.  The food was hot, decently sized, and average tasting.  The ambiance could use some work - no vibe there.  The restaurant was filled with a lot of families with kids and teenagers.  I'd return if I was in the area, but I wouldn't go out of my way to eat there.

I like Noodles & Company, I don't love it.  For some reason their menu doesn't thrill me all that much, but I do sometime have a hankering for their Steak Stroganoff (Marinated steak, mushroom sherry cream sauce, fresh herbs, cracked pepper, sautéed mushrooms, egg noodles and parmesan).  It is great for quick dinner.  Another winner is the Pasta Fresca (Penne with balsamic, olive oil, white wine and roasted garlic,red onion, tomato and spinach and feta), which is my somewhat "lighter" option when noodling it up.  

This location is very light and bright.  It sits right off main street in Southlands and there is lots of parking off Main in the back.  Staff is friendly and it is relatively quick service (based on how long the line is).  It's a good stop if you are in the mood for something noodle-y.

love it!!
