Noodles and Company

Even though this place is all about pasta, it’s important to note that this is an outstanding option for those who are gluten-free. This business actually has two different types of pasta for those who have either sensitivity or preference. Different eaters like their pasta cooked in a variety way. For example, they have traditional Italian dishes; however, they also have Thai options and family- friendly options like macaroni and cheese. They are in my opinion, a bit pricey for a fast food chain. If you are watching your diet or your wallet, this may not be the best place to dine. The food is also somewhat rich (lots of cheese and salt) and generally contains a healthy dose of calories. Still, it’s a pretty happy and quick outing and worth the occasional visit.

In the location near home, you can see the area where the noodles are cooked. Needing gluten free, I appreciate being able to watch them do the cooking. The one employee we interacted with was very helpful. The others were not very interactive.
