The concept behind the creation of the Noodle express was to deliver the same great flavors of the Mustard Seed but in a fast-casual environment for everyone to enjoy. In 1992, the first Noodle Express was introduced at Southgate Mall located in Missoula, Montana. We've since expanded to have locations across the Inland Northwest with locations in Montana, Northern Idaho, and Washington.
