Perhaps to broaden its appeal and make it more like its sister restaurant, Spices in Cleveland Park, Oodles Noodles changed its name two years ago to Nooshi--a combination of noodles and sushi. A sushi bar was added in the front of the restaurant. The sushi is fine--no better than you'd find in any number of downtown sushi bars--but the real reason to go here is the noodles.
