About Us
It began in 1995 with a simple concept—serve fresh food fast. Something that was virtually unheard of at the time. Fast forward to the present… and we’re redefining the fast-casual dining industry once again.

Here at Noodles & Company, our name pretty much says it all. We’re all about Noodles and the company that makes them all that much more enjoyable. It’s why every dish we make is handmade exactly the way you like and why every order is served with the flavors and experiences to make it truly special. From cooking up classics to serving up salads, sides and desserts, when it comes to Noodles & Company, we’ve got all your cravings covered.

Our dishes are inspired by the individuality, creativity and cultural heritage of cuisines from around the globe. From Penne Rosa to Japanese Pan Noodles, The Med Salad, and of course our famous Wisconsin Mac & Cheese, only the most authentic ingredients make the cut.

Whether you’re looking for a cozy spot to share a meal with a friend, it’s family dinner night or you’re catering a party, Noodles & Company is the perfect place to get together with loved ones and share a moment around the table.
