I changed the statement that "all menu items are vegetarian" to "most menu items are vegetarian" this is based on an injury sent to their company. They said: "The following items are not considered vegetarian by our standards: Pad Thai (fish and oyster sauce), Caesar Salad (fish sauce), Chicken Noodle Soup, all protein add-ons but the tofu, Potstickers (chicken) and Rice Krispie Treats (marshmallow). We consider all other menu items to be vegetarian." --anon —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.251.215.204 ( talk) 23:45, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
Image:Noodles & Company Logo.svg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Rumor is that Noodles employs a large number of illegal immigrants, and has policies in place (storing I-9 documents at corporate offices so individual stores aren't liable, for example) to hide this. Can anyone corroborate this? I have heard of this practice in other areas of the food service industry, but the idea of Noodles doing this just makes me sad. 97.114.5.129 ( talk) 19:26, 8 July 2009 (UTC)
I am a manager at Noodles and Company and can 100% confirm this as a true statement Gamesformay ( talk) 02:41, 27 October 2009 (UTC)
None of the three photos present in the article — Image:Pasta_with_pesto.jpg, Image:CaesarSalad3.jpg, Image:Bowl of chicken soup.jpg — are photos of food as served by Noodles & Company. This is akin to showing a photo of a Big Mac in a Burger King article. As such, I've pulled all three photos. — VulcanOfWalden ( talk) 18:00, 8 August 2009 (UTC)
Hi. I'll be helping Noodles & Company make contributions to the article from Talk with the aim of bringing the article up to the "Good Article" designation. I'm researching/writing a first draft off-line at-the-moment, which should at least bring the article up to B class when finished, while cleaning up some unsourced promotionalism and other problems on the current page.
I wanted to introduce myself on the Talk page and see if there were any Talk-page watchers interested in considering our contributed article when finished, per WP:COI. Afterwards I'll take it through the GA process to double-check our work and make sure it is neutral, complete and well-sourced. CorporateM ( Talk) 19:37, 25 July 2013 (UTC)
On Noodles & Company's behalf, I've prepared a draft of a substantial expansion to this article for Wikipedia's consideration at User:CorporateM/Noodles & Company. I know it's a lot of content to dump on the community at once, so I'm happy to go through it in whatever format is most convenient. (section-by-section, all-at-once, etc.). I've also prepared some extensive notes below, which flow in-order from top-to-bottom in the draft.
A few notes

I removed a mention of Noodles & Company's pricing in the draft by Crisco's suggestion because the source was too old. Just last Friday, an Investor's Business Daily article came out that says the average order is for $8, which could replace that.
I also just uploaded File:Noodles&Company billboard.jpg, which - if it passes muster with copyrights - would be a great image for the Advertising section. The content of this section is hard to explain in text. CorporateM ( Talk) 16:48, 23 September 2013 (UTC)
Do you think links like this, which is currently under Further reading, where the food recipes are discusses are superfluous? CorporateM ( Talk) 23:15, 23 September 2013 (UTC)

I use to like this restaurant when it was down the street, so I will review this article.-- TonyTheTiger ( T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 17:47, 5 December 2013 (UTC)
There is a lot in this article that, while sourced, feels to be promotional in nature. Although mostly presented through sourced quotes, there is a narrative that feels almost like a press release. Especially passages like this one in the "Growth" section (which has little to do with "Growth") like:
The article seems to put
undue weight on positive reviews and press mentions of their business success. Compare it to an article like
Subway_(restaurant) or
Chipotle_Mexican_Grill (two restaurants I clicked on at random from the "Fast food and fast casual restaurant chains in the United States" template at the bottom) and compare how much less emphasis is placed on glowing reviews and quotes about how well their stock is doing. --
