“We’re coming for you, Tanque Verde. Trying to make it a little closer for the east side foodies.”
Just the other day, the team at Noodleholics shared the news on social media that they are planning to open a brand-new location at 6310 E. Tanque Verde Rd. This will be the local business’ third location, which is considered to be the east side of town.
The new space is moving into the former Barbizza’s location, which closed earlier this year after a few months in business. This is right next to Bonchon and nearby The Cork — if you need a little more geographical assistance.
The menu features small plates like BBQ Pork and Veggie Egg Rolls, rice plates featuring crispy pork, beef shank, and more, iced matches, milk teas, and noodle soups, of course. A popular soup is the Sichuan Spicy Beef with wheat noodles, spicy beef broth, peppercorn oil, beef shank, bok choy, green onions, and cilantro — the perfect meal when it’s a bit chilly outside.
Their wheat noodles are made in-house, sliced on the slightly thicker side to cling to the broth. The Guilin rice noodles are on the thinner side, similar to vermicelli.
Noodleholics opened its very first location in 2018 on 3502 E. Grant Rd., and then its second location in the Plaza Escondida shopping center at 7850 N. Oracle Rd.
Stay tuned for an official opening date on Tanque Verde Road.
Noodleholics is located at 7850 N. Oracle Rd., 3502 E. Grant Rd., and 6310 E. Tanque Verde Rd. (coming soon). Keep up with Noodleholics on Facebook, Instagram, and noodleholics.com.

More about MattAt a very young age, Matt Sterner was gifted with the artistic ability to masterfully roll a burrito to the highest of standards, but the wrapped medley of delicious innards wasn’t his first love. Matt’s first true love was a combination of reading, writing, and creating. He grew up reading comics, the ingredients list of his shampoo and conditioner bottles, choose-your-own-adventure books, and the Scrabble dictionary — something he found useful when challenging his grandmother to a game.
He attended college at New Mexico State University and graduated with a degree in Digital Filmmaking. One of his favorite classes was screenwriting because he became responsible for the story’s birth before it came to life on-screen. After school, Matt took on numerous positions at a local television station in Tucson. From dealing out stories about heartbreak to producing “fluffier” content for a lifestyle broadcast, he learned what it takes to adapt to the many emotions the world of media can stir. Since 2017, Matt has dabbled in the culinary world of Tucson as well as San Diego, California from time to time.
If you’re in the mood for strange stories, head over to his pride and joy, wonkytimes.com. And in case you’re curious — yes, after all of this time, he still manages to roll a killer burrito.
