LIVE MUSIC THIS WEEKEND!

We are excited to have Junkyard Casanovas coming to entertain during our Noodle @ Night hours, 9 - 12 THIS SATURDAY!

Joe & the guys played last summer on the plaza and we had a fantastic time with them! Come on down and check out their fun rock and roll sound. They also have a few new songs - you can check them out here.

Just a reminder that this is also the last few days for our May specials, and that we are closed Monday to observe Madeleine's Birthday. (or Memorial Day for the rest of you... but when she was little she thought it was pretty cool she always gets a day off from school for her birthday and she seems to be selling that concept to the twins - five year olds are so gullible!).

June specials just landed on my desk for proofing... am thinking these are all going to be winners!

Have a SAFE and HAPPY weekend!

This is going to be one of our specials this April - farfelle, grape tomatoes, green beans, olive oil and herbs topped with slices of seared ahi tuna. A free gift certificate to the Noodle for the best name (and of course, the prestige!)

Love is in the Air....

Or, maybe it's just the promise of Spring that has me smiling a bit more these days. Either way - we are excited about this weekend - whether you are celebrating romance or just appreciating good friends (because I don't necessarily relegate Valentine's Day to being a couple's holiday... after all - don't we all send our kids to school armed with dozens of heart shaped missives begging each classmate to "Be Mine"?) you should check out our Dinner for Two offering below. We will not be asking for any sort of proof of "coupledom". See? Equal opportunity dining here.

Also the February Specials are OUT of THIS WORLD! You should definitely hop on over and check them out.

As always we will accept call ahead seating this weekend, but NO RESERVATIONS. We think it works out best this way, since we don't have to fend off angry eyes while we hold an open table for someone running a bit late.


Dinner for Two:

Cheese Pizzette to Share

Choice of Soup or Salad

Choice of Entree:

Fettuccine Alfredo

Spaghetti with Meatballs

Traditional Meat Lasagna

Rigatoni with Mushroom Ragout

Dessert to Share

ALL THIS for only $30!


We think this is an INCREDIBLE bargain... and we hope you will too! Come in and enjoy this offer anytime between 5 p.m., Friday, 2/12 and Sunday 2/14/10.
The pic above is Maddie (our oldest) sharing a fry with one of her BFFs Carter. See? Love is for EVERYONE.

No, Janet hasn't dropped off the face of the earth.

But apparently running a popular pasta restaurant AND co-owning a brand new burger restaurant makes a person a tad busy?

She is probably going to draft me into doing the blogging here (guess I shouldn't be doing such a good job with the Burger Blog) so you'll be hearing from me here soon!

In the meantime, just a reminder that BOTH the Noodle and the Burger will be closing at 4 on Sunday to celebrate the holidays with our awesome staff and their families.

Happy Holidays -- Sarah
