Lets not forget people tend to use that walkway as a short cut to Tomorrowland. Also its a very very dirty environment and offers nothing remotely similar to what possibly could be a table service resturant. Can you imagine taking nice breakable plates and sit outside? Even with nice table cloths and silver ware, there is no way they can get an outside location perfectly clean. Cosmic Rays would have been a better option to make into a table service resturant. The Noodle Station would have to leave the food in the middle of the outside area? They are just asking for problems. Spoiled food equals sick guests equals no spending money. It all comes out to be a losing battle. I think the concept it good but the location leaves much to be desired.
This location will not offer advance reservation throuh Disney Dining (407-WDW-DINE) but reservations will be available at the Tomorrowland Terrace Café podium as well as the Plaza Restaurant podium.
I kind of like the fact that it will not be on the ADR system. With the ADRs on the dining plan taking up most full-service availabilities, this might put some sponteneity back in our dining choices.

Update: Tomorrowland Terrace Cafe opens Aug 13th
The Tomorrowland Terrace Noodle Station will close on August 11 and then reopen on August 13 as the Tomorrowland Terrace Café, a Table Service restaurant serving a dinner buffet.
I'm not positive, but most counter service locations that are outdoors don't have a long life span when surrounded by airconditioned options. The Terrace is way in the back corner, as is El Pirata y El Perico.
Another one that's never open....
Maybe it's just me.. maybe i need bold text...
It'll be open every day from 5-9pm through October 5th (when they'll probably re-evaluate if it's popular enough to keep around) with the except of a period in September (which is forecasted to be super dead time).
