Absolute Noodle: The Menu

A few months ago we learned that Absolute Noodle would open on 5th Street NW in between Judiciary Square and Gallery Place-Chinatown. The owners (same as Absolute Thai)  were shooting for a November opening and although they didn't quite make that, they look very close. Tables and chairs are in the building and art installations have been fixed to the walls. They even posted a menu, a portion of which you can see below. Very cool to see the progress!

Absolute Noodle to Open on 5th St NW

The owners of Absolute Thai restaurant at 521 G NW in Penn Quarter/Judiciary Sq will open a noodle themed restaurant just a block away at 772 5th St NW. 772 was most recently a Quizno's. Absolute Noodle will, naturally, focus on noodle dishes and could include plates like ramen, spicy thai noodles or drunken noodle. There is no menu at the moment. The requested seat load is 49. I can't imagine 50 people in that old Quizno's space, but I'm not sure of the entire square footage, so perhaps it is larger than I know. No posted ABRA hearing notices up just yet, but I wouldn't be surprised if they decided to seek an alcohol licence at some point.

This restaurant will join a small collection of eateries near 5th and G NW including the aforementioned Absolute Thai, Burger King, Family Dinette, Market to Market and Irish Channel. Owners hope to open by November. Good luck!
