Noodles & Company

This is a chain place, but for a chain place it's pretty good. They offer a variety of.....wait for it.....noodle dishes. These range from mac 'n cheese to stroganoff to Italian themed and Asian themed dishes. They also offer a few salads. Overall the food is very tasty and fresh. As a nice touch, most noodle dishes come in two sizes, so if you want only a small portion of pasta (are you nuts?), you have that option. Another cool thing about this place is that they have one of those mix and match soda fountains in which you can make a variety of flavored sodas. Some of them are good, others aren't that hot, but since you choose which flavor goes with which soda, you can't blame anyone but yourself if you don't like the outcome (you can always dump your soda out and make a new one if this is the case). This place is right next to campus and can be busy on a weekend night, and they also offer carry-out.

I visited the restaurant for the first time and loved it.  I had the asian pan noodle dish and it was yummy with a kick!  Also got a rice krispy bar, which was wonderful.

They were really busy so I thought I would be waiting awhile and they were actually really fast.  I noticed that the staff was very efficient and very friendly.

Will be returning and can't wait to try the buttered noodles next.. :)

Im a fan of the menu at Noodles and Co. I usually get the Penne Rosa with feta cheese and a side of flatbread. This location is very close to the ISU campus and has outdoor seating, something that I love.
