Food was hot and fresh. Pasta tender, served with focaccia bread, was good. Meatball subs were ok, meatballs tender, a little salty. Wasn't impressed with the sauce. Watery and soaked through my bun. No forks for sandwich eaters and I guess they expected us to share a napkin. Tips are not optional and 15% is lowest option for counter service. Help does bring the food, but the tables were not mopped down after previous customers. Ok for a quick pasta fix, but not worth going out of your way. read more

My wife and I enjoy going here. Food is consistently great, very flavorful with quality ingredients (olive oil, butter). They have rotating frozen yogurt flavors and the deserts in general have all been very good. Staff is pretty chill, always friendly and attentive. read more

Have you seen those videos of the Italian Chef making pasta sauce from a big wheel of cheese? Well when I see that I imagine it taste like noodles Cacio e PePe. The fettuccine is thin and chewy- made exactly like homemade, authentic pasta from Italy should taste. I lived in Italy for 7 years- and this was just as good as anything I've had in Italy. Gelato is not as authentic, but you go for the pasta..get the gelato because it's convenient . read more

I love this place, it's so cutie! The pasta of the week is fun to take home to try and recreate the monthly dish you fall in love with

One of my favorite places and I always make sure I stop by when I'm visiting Tucson. Best vodka pasta and the most perfect icecream ever.

Great local spot. I have been in a couple of times definitely for dessert. Great fast service. Chill , comfortable atmosphere to enjoy all the delicious offerings. Definitely worth following them on instagram to keep up with the rotating gelato flavors which always look amazing.. I was definitely not disappointed with this weeks ! read more

The food is amazing with great portion sizes! Service is quick. The gelato and focaccia bread are so fresh.

Noodies is brought to us by the same owners of Ceres. This concept offers a dine in seating as well as more options to customize your pasta dish, in addition to other menu items such as salads, panini, fries and soft serve gelato. Service is is order at the counter or you can order online, which is what I opted for. They also sell fresh made noodles and sauces to cook at home. The menu also includes items that vegetarian and vegan friendly. The online ordering system is easy to navigate, although the food was not ready when we arrived for pick up. I was worried that the pasta might not travel well but thankfully it did. We ordered cacio e pepe with bucatini, rigatoni with bolognese, caesar salad and arugula salad. The cacio e pepe was perfect. The bolognese sauce is the same way I make mine and they make it really well. The sauce to noodle ratio was off, making for a dry rigatoni meal. Ceres and Noodies definitely make nice quality pasta and sauces, which I wish they would serve on plates. Pasta this good should not be relegated to paper containers. It's wasteful and not a proper way to eat pasta, in my opinion. I'll likely stick to four stars until they serve pasta on real plates. ;) read more

I like the simplicity of the concept of Noodies: fresh pasta paired with sauce of your choosing. The choices are straightforward, but it's a hard decision when everything looks and smells so good! I ended up getting rigatoni with bolognese sauce, which was hearty and rustic. I liked it a lot, but did have a bit of plate envy regarding my friend's fusilli with pesto. My bolognese was good, but the flavor was a bit muted. The pasta was very good, as was the accompanying focaccia, and I would definitely consider getting some of their pasta to cook at home! I also went for the gelato, which had great flavor. The texture wasn't perfect (slightly grainy and hard), but I do recommend it nonetheless! read more

Best lunch (or dinner) in Tucson!!! Great prices and portions, and a super cute and relaxing dining room. Perfect for both a quick bite and a nice sit down meal with family/friends. Noodles are cooked consistently to a perfect al dente with enough sauce to coat every bite, and every pasta/sauce/protein combination is delicious and worth a try. Personal favorites are the vodka rigatoni with burrata or the spaghetti with pesto and chicken. And the fresh focaccia served with the pasta is delicious. The employees are always friendly and welcoming, and I love the outside seating for when I'm in the area with my dog. They also have two rotating soft-serve style gelato flavors each week which never disappoint-- so try to save room for dessert after trying their rotating special of the month. read more

I finally headed out to Noodies to try their vegan soft serve gelato and pasta fries, and can I tell you how I have just been craving those fries ever since? So yum. Noodies offers pastas, various sauces, fries, sandwiches, salads and soft serve gelato, and I chatted with the staff to figure out what offerings are gluten and dairy free! Try out the French fries drenched in their super flavorful tomato and basil sauce, and top it with Italian sausage if you want a protein! The meat is $3.50 extra, and the flavor of that sausage is perfection. I do wish there were a few more fries on the plate, because the ones on the bottom did get soggy fast. The tomato and basil sauce tastes like tomatoey goodness, and is so fresh. The lemon gelato is vegan, and packs a punch, for real. It was so flavorful, and the citrus really kept its sour bite, which I loved. Order your gelato in a cup if you are gluten free. Overall impressions: the fries were literally so delicious, but there wasn't enough of them for the price. My sister's sandwich was on a bread better toasted, but wasn't toasted. She described it as "cold and sad." The soft serve was refreshing. read more

Noodies was cute, but disappointing. I was excited to find a little pasta shop and the decor was fun without going too over the top. I was dismayed to see only four noodle and five sauce choices. I was hoping for Alfredo, but that is not one of the sauces they serve. I settled for the fettuccine with the tomato basil sauce, my companion had the fusilli with pesto sauce. My companion finished their fusilli while we were there and quite enjoyed it. My fettuccine was a bit overcooked and I didn't really enjoy the sauce. I only ate about a third of it there, but did take the rest home and reheated it with some marinara. It tasted it better after that, but still not worth $11 (which is the cheapest pasta price). The pasta dishes both included a piece of bread, which was pretty tasty, but extremely tiny. My companion had a bottled lemonade which was good. I decided to try a chocolate gelato milkshake. It was not well blended, so the first few drinks were not great. However, once it started to melt a bit and I was able to stir it, it was really enjoyable. It was sweet without being cloyingly so. It was smooth and creamy and oh so chocolaty. The portion sizes were okay for the pasta, but the prices seem a bit high for them. The milkshake was definitely overpriced. Customer service seemed fine, but other than giving my order at the counter, I didn't interact with anyone. Overall, I don't think I would plan to visit again. The prices just don't match the quality for me sadly. read more

This food is amazing! I've been wanting to try it forever and so glad I finally got to. I got bolognese and it's so fresh. The bread piece could definitely be bigger but the burrata added a nice touch. You walk up to a counter to order and the guy was nice. The music is a little loud in the lobby, which is spacious, but it was fine. read more

Been coming since it opened, best service was when they served the pasta in the paper/board bowls and called out orders by name. The workers are now too busy handing out orders to the tables which delays the time to set your order. (The place isn't big enough to be handing out orders) My daughter LOVES the pesto pasta, will continue to come back just let the workers work behind the counter in my opinion read more

SUPER CUTE pasta and sandwich place! Place your order at the counter and wait for them to call out your name. Plenty of seating inside and outside! Parking is also available by the gas station. The staff is super friendly and helpful when it comes to ordering! Pasta size was reasonable. Sandwiches seem a bit small. Get more than just sandwich if you're hungry! read more

Second location of Ceres. The first location is in Downtown Tucson. It's nice to have a place to sit down and eat. You order at the counter and call you when it's ready. Service was great and the food came out quick. You have your choice of pasta and sauce. They've added salads, sandwiches and French fries. Our pasta dishes were good except the meatballs were cold, other then that it was all good and the gelato was great. Portions were good, I had leftovers. @noodiestucson read more

The staff are incredible and the atmosphere is top notch! 1000/5 stars! If you haven't been yet, you have to! read more

An absolute staple when you're in Tucson!! This place is so good every time I have someone visiting me in town I bring them here. The portions are great, and the food tastes absolutely delicious. I highly recommend the vodka rigatoni with meatballs and burrata-- rich, creamy-goodness! I will say, it is a bit on the pricier side. Expect to pay around $20-23 bucks for your meal. Overall, I think this place is fantastic. read more

Tucson needs more low key, homemade pasta places, and noodies fits the bill. Unfortunately this location nor ceres is conveniently located and twice now I've tried ordering online to which I've gotten the error "no longer accepting orders." I went in and ordered two pastas to go which took a little over 25 minutes to come out. They don't take phone orders either so anticipate a wait if you want to go. It was a little frustrating because people who ordered dine in after me got their food before me still. For service and speed, a 2/5. That being said the food itself is a solid 4/5. Portions are on the smaller side, but it's affordable given the price and the quality is high. I would come again, but only as sit down. read more

Noodies was amazing! I got the grinder sandwich (HUGE!) and it was delicious. We also got the vodka sauce covered French fries with added meatballs. The meatballs were delicious and so was the sauce. 100% would recommend this place! I will be back again to try the soft server! read more

I've been counting down the days until Noodies opened up in the old Bentley's space. Sad to see the coffee shop go but glad it's staying in the family. I hope with this new location means even more of our community gets to enjoy fresh pasta from one of Tucson's best. At Noodies you can find the classics you have come to know and love from Ceres like tomato basil, pesto, and bolognese plus some awesome new menu additions! We tried rigatoni with vodka sauce and tomato basil with a few of their sparkling drinks and finished the afternoon off with soft serve on the patio. This location has a totally different feel and vibe than Ceres with so much indoor and outdoor seating. You can expect some familiar faces and their always friendly staff getting fresh made food out quickly for those looking for a fast lunch or dinner. We timed our visit just right and were able to be seated right away before it really filled in. If you love fresh pasta, this place is a must try. read more

Small shop close to the UA! Came in when it wasn't too busy and so the ambiance was nice and staff was friendly. The menu is simple which makes ordering easy. We ordered the tomato basil fettuccine with chicken, but as they were out of chicken the staff suggested the meatballs, which were unfortunately on the dry side and seemed a little burnt. Not our favorite protein, but as the sauce and noodles were good, we are open to trying other items in the future! read more

I was on the fence about writing this but I owe it to the people who rely on reviews to make decisions. 1. Lunch service was extremely slow- I'm unsure if our ticket was misplaced and we were lost in the shuffle but it took 30 mins for our two sandwiches. 2. My favorite, the meatball sub, had ZERO sauce. It was the driest meatball sub with too much cheese. 3. The worst- it needed salt. Majorly. I'm unsure if it was just an off day, hope so, but I'm not sure it's the five star place I ate at a big ago. read more

A build-your-own pasta shop! Love the concept behind this business. They also have serve soft ice cream and salads as well. The salad was delicious and I loved the protein in it, the pasta was on the bland side and salt is definitely needed. Cute place, but don't see myself coming back! read more

The food here is amazing. the pasta has so much flavor, good price for the serving size and the workers are so kind and the owners are very mindful of the service they give their customers!

So surprisingly good! Best FRESH pasta noodle I've ever tasted.. so much cheesy flavor in every bite of the pasta.. I've ordered their white fettuccine pasta and my hubby ordered meatball sandwich.. so satisfying! We'll definitely come back here every time we want to have freshly made noodle.. so unique.. not to mention their ICE CREAM is to die for.. we got chocolate .. so yummy.. can't stop eating it until it's gone.. Food quality is like eating at a 5-star hotel.. so elevated! Keto diet will surely be ruined here.. consider it to be a cheat day! You won't regret coming here.. great pricing as well and they give big portion.. read more

From service, to sandwich (the Italian grinder was so good), to baked goods and the SOFT SERVE GELATO! This place is a real gem.

Noodies is almost identical to its sister store Ceres, except that it doesn't have the regular pasta specials that Ceres gifts upon us. What Noodies does have are vodka sauce and pasta fries, which are also gifts. I'm so happy to have a dinner option from our friends at Ceres and I also kind of love that the two are a little bit different. read more

Delicious pastas (the texture and taste!), gelati, Slow Body cans, friendly server, no fuss!

Our first time today we did takeout ! Really good food! The quality of the pasta and the sauce is super fresh, the meatballs are outstanding. And anything from Roma imports is always a win, especially their sausage. I only find it ridiculous to upcharge $1.50 for 1OZ Ramiken of grated Parm. Other then that for the most part the price is okay, $35 for 2 pastas. Forsure budget yourself to eat here. But the food is great. read more

I loved noodies but after today watching the cashier touch everything in the front of the store serving customers before me handling their cash, touching the iPad where they take orders. After waiting my turn to order a piece of focaccia bread I'm watching her and she literally grabs my bread with her bare hands with someone with contamination ocd and also a nut allergy (she was handling nuts for the topping on icecream before me) this is insane to see. So I confronted her about not wearing gloves and her excuse was she washes her hands periodically like what you should've washed your hands before touching someone's food! Should've asked for my 3$ back I'm absolutely disgusted who knows what else they touch with their dirty hands. Not hard to keep a box of gloves next to the bread glove the hand that's going to grab the bread and there we go untouched bread! Yuck read more

Slightly obsessed with the food here, it's casual dining prices are so reasonable and the best part? The pasta is absolutely divine... this place will definitely be our go to for pasta! I had the penne with vodka sauce, my husband got gnocchi and 5 year old got Bolognais and to our pleasant surprise she ate it all! They also have ice cream my daughter tried the birthday cake flavor and she loved it. 10/10 recommend this place if you love pasta and ice cream read more

Went again last night. I had the Bolognese with fusilli and meatballs, my partner had the tomato & basil with bucatini. Both came with grated parmesan on top and a small piece of focaccia. This meal was good, but not as good as the vodka sauce from last time. After some googling, I'm thinking this is more of a traditional Bolognese - not much tomato involved. It's just personal preference, but I think more tomato or tomato paste would make this a better sauce. The meatballs were not as flavorful as last time, but they were perfectly cooked, with a nice sear outside and tender inside. The tomato and basil sauce my partner had was very good. Very bright but rich, lots of fresh basil. Portions were satisfying, but not overwhelming, which I appreciate - many restaurants can't find that balance. I'll be coming back to start trying the sandwiches! read more

I got the fettuccine with vodka sauce and meatball and it was delicious. This fresh pasta is a clear winner over any store bought any day. The focaccia it came with was okay. My husband ordered the sausage sandwich and regular fries and probably was served a meatball sandwich instead. Fries were hot and crispy. We got the watermelon and lime sorbet gelato with Tajín sauce and gummies to split and it was refreshing and addictive. Will definitely be back! read more

Delicious fresh and homemade pasta! This place is really great! It's so kid friendly too, we took the grandkids here on Mothers Day, and it was just relaxing after a trip to the zoo! The kids were able to play in the play area while we waited for food, you pick your pasta, sauce, and side, the kids had pasta with butter, I had rigatoni with cacio de pepe and meatballs, we also shared an arugula salad, everything was amazing! We also had mango gelato for dessert with guava syrup (it was the only gelato machine working at the time). There is pasta that you can purchase to take home also. Its colorful, inviting inside and out, and absolutely delicious! We seriously couldn't have picked a better place to take the kids! read more

On Speedway off of Campbell (where Bentley's used to be) you'll find Cere's new sister restaurant, Noodies. All of their beautiful handmade noodle options are vegan except for the fettuccine. Their delicious tomato basil sauce is vegan. I ordered a bowl of tomato basil rigatoni with no cheese, tomato basil pasta fries with no cheese, and a soft-serve tangy tangerine gelato for dessert. Ceres sauce and pasta are available for purchase to-go. Stop by: Friday - Monday 11am - 8pm read more
