Chicken marina and noodles. The noodles were hard and did not taste good at all. Maybe undercooked? Not sure but the taste was off. Picked out the chicken.

Noodles was my go-to fast casual spot before I was diagnosed (and I used to work there a few decades ago!) and I’ve been thrilled to see them enhance their gluten free options, training, and customer info. The server asked if it was a preference or allergy so the right preparation could be made for my meal, and I had no reaction afterwards. Have gone a few times now and so far so good!

The items they advertise that can be GF with the GF noodles may not be. I ordered the chicken parm and asked the guy 3 times if it was GF. The cook advised me of cross contamination. I received the dish and started to eat and realized something wasn’t right. Went back to the manager and asked again and they said what I had eaten was not GF. Omgosh…that’s critical to a person with Celiac. I told them that it is serious and they made me another dish and apologized. They also spoke with the guy about what GF means and what isn’t.

Just be careful don't trust automatically what they give you is gluten free, they put the bread crumbs on the Mac n cheese when I got it once. Otherwise great careful about cooking stuff separately I always feel like they take me seriously

They did a great job offering options for my 5 year old and made sure his meal was yummy and safe for him to eat!

They are always helpful and willing to accommodate. They have GF pasta and most of their salads can be made GF. I love the chicken Veracruz salad with no crispy jalapeños.

First time to this restaurant chain. Very impressed with friendly service and great knowledge of gluten. The cashier quickly whipped out a detailed chart of the break down of every meal, and the cook filled in any questions we had with confidence. $1 pasta substitution too for gluten free pasta on those style meals. I'll definitely be back for more! This celiac is happy.

Kind of a dingier Nood & Co, but my meal was just as delicious as always! A little hard to find but worth it. I always get the Pesto with chicken and rice noodles, and the chicken was extra good at this location.

Ordered Shrimp Pad Thai through Uber Eats. Didn't get sick and I'm very sensitive to cross contact exposure.

I ordered gluten free Mac and cheese, and immediately found other types of stray noodles in it, so it was obviously cross-contaminated.

The have both Gluten-free shells and zucchini pasta to sub. The server was very knowledgeable and asked if it was "preference or allergy". When I said allergy they made sure my pasta was boiled in fresh water. I was also informed of the gluten content of items my friend ordered.
