I seek out Noodles and Company when I travel, as there are none 8n upstate NY.
This was delicious and quick and the restaurant was clean and tidy.
The pad thai was the best I've had at Noodles and Co. Perfect amount of sauce, the egg was fluffy and plentiful and the chicken pieces were perfect - not dry at all, and adding to the entree. My son has never had pad thai like this, and he said, these eggs are sooo good! Why don't more pasta dishes have then, lol. They were super fresh and fluffy.
My son and I even shared an entree and we were both full. It was surprisingly affordable, considering it's location not too far from Baltimore and D.C. and their sometimes exorbitant prices.
We got Sweet Frog yogurt in the plaza for dessert. But i know the rice krispie treats and N&C are great! Sweet, but not cloying and a great end to their meals.
I appreciate this fast casual chain because it's easy to get any needed combination of gluten-free, dairy-free or vegetarian meal. I always feel great after eating it - no sour or greasy stomach or unhappy belly the next day, unlike other fast food restaurants commonly convenient when traveling. I highly recommend Noodles & company anywhere, and this location was so thoughtful, coming to offer me an extra plate when they thought we could use it and keeping things clean after other diners left. I have to add, it was clearly a very busy day for them, but the crew worked together quickly to keep up with orders and they don't seem harried despite it being a very busy holiday weekend with many soccer and other events going on in the region. They were patient, helpful, polite and efficient.
Great experience, I highly recommend the Germantown franchise.
