New restaurant will open Feb. 20 at The Greene

BEAVERCREEK — A Noodles & Company restaurant will open at The Greene at 11 a.m. Feb. 20, a spokeswoman for the restaurant chain announced today, Feb. 10.

The new restaurant is located at 11 The Greene Blvd., facing Indian Ripple Road on the north side of the shopping and entertainment complex.

Colorado-based Noodles & Company calls itself a “quick-casual, globally inspired noodle restaurant that serves a balanced menu of freshly sauteed Asian, Mediterranean and American cuisine.” Each noodle dish is prepared to order in about five minutes, and two thirds of its dishes are less than 500 calories, restaurant officials said.

As part of its grand opening celebration, Noodles & Company will host a pre-opening fundraiser on Thursday, Feb. 19 to benefit the Kettering Performing Arts Parents Association, an organization that supports students through the Fairmont Band Boosters, Fairmont Choral Boosters, and Kettering Orchestra Parents, and supports other Kettering music programs. From 5 to 8 p.m., 100 percent of sales will go to the organization’s private lesson scholarship program, which helps students who would not be able to afford private music lessons.

The restaurant will be open Sunday through Wednesday 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. and Thursday through Saturday 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. Carryout is available. The restaurant’s phone number is (937) 429-2893.

Second Fuddruckers also closed

Click here for the entry about Valentine’s Day Restaurant Specials.

The Fuddrucker’s restaurant at 2476 Commons Blvd. near the Mall at Fairfield Commons in Beavercreek has closed, apparently even before the companion restaurant behind the Dayton Mall did.

Last week, my reporting colleague Lucas Sullivan reported that the Fuddruckers near the Dayton Mall had closed. He got emails from a few Beavercreek-area residents telling him that the Beavercreek restaurant had also shut its doors. Turns out a sign on the door of the Beavercreek restaurant refers customers to the Dayton Mall-area location.

I attempted to contact officials at the Austin, Texas-based Fuddruckers over the course of two days to ask what led to the closings, how many employees were affected, etc. Phone messages left on the voicemail of the assistant to CEO Peter Large and COO Ralph Flannery on two consecutive mornings yielded no return call, nor did a phone message left with another Fuddruckers official who oversees franchise opportunities. I also attempted to email Mr. Large and Mr. Flannery. No luck.

At this point, the company’s web site lists no locations in Ohio.
