Noodles kept reminding me by e-mail that I have a free entree that they had dropped in and that was expiring soon so I finally heeded their alerts and placed an order online.
Ordering online is a cinch---including customizing the sauce, adding proteins, and adding a side! I ordered food on Thursday for pickup at 1:30 pm on Friday after a dentist appointment I had nearby.
I had ordered a pesto cavatappi with extra pesto, without mushrooms, with extra grilled chicken breast, and with spinach. For my sides, I ordered a salad and tomato basil bisque soup, which came with oyster crackers.
I arrived at 1:40 pm, and the order was ready on their to-go order bookshelf, accurate and with a plastic fork and knife, and still hot. I did not have to interact with the cashier.
The only very minor down side of the experience is I went to get napkins and sriracha sauce, and an employee was sluggishly removing a container from a cabinet beneath the condiments station. Both soda machines had a customer in front of them, so the employee should have waited. He noticed me hovering but still did not move.
I ended up eating on-site. The pesto is never enough on the regular bowl, so the extra pesto certainly helped pick up the flavor of the otherwise bland cavatappi. There was a ton of delicious and well-cooked grilled chicken breast in small, bite-sized pieces. The soup was hot, a good portion size, and tasty. The salad was very good and not wilted.
