    I love the salads from this restaurant but I did NOT like the 2 strands of black hair I found mixed in with the lettuce. I'm really going to hate losing this restaurant but that was a horrible experience for me. This was

    Pimento cheese with caesar salad
    Cashea S.

    I wanted to give this place more stars but it just didn't make it. I ordered the 1/2 pimento cheese and the Cesar salad while my husband had a Turkey sandwich with a house salad. The pimento cheese had zero pimentos in it. I literally thought I was eating just a grilled cheese sandwich. The bread was toasted too much and not enough cheese. Just a piece of tomato on it. Not impressed one bit. The salad was good and a decent size. My husbands sandwich too was just ok. The service was pretty poor as well. Not to mention 2 of the employees were wearing there pants to their knees showing their underwear. Not something I wanted to see. I did however like the condiments table where you could get pickles and garlic and cheese. But this is just a one time trip here for us.

    Bad avocado.

    Newks at Columbus Crossing. 30 minutes for service, although the restaurant was not even half full. And, the avocado on my wife's Turkey Avocado sandwich was well past its use by date. However, the store was clean and the servers were polite.

    the receipt for the restaurant
    Mila Q.

    Well they can thank corporate for messing things up. They're changing the size portions on the food. I come here every other day for the past year and love how full and big my $15.21 salmon and Greek salad is all to be surprised with some small little salad today. It's good and the staff is great but I'm not paying the price of a full on restaurant like Cheesecake Factory for not even a full salad if corporate feels that's the right avenue for there business well they lost my weekly 60 dollars a week

    $1.10 avocado slices for club sandwich that had NO lettuce or tomato.
    Nikki V.

    I have heard wonderful things about Newks in Albany, Ga where my daughter goes to college so when I found they were opening one in Columbus I was excited. Unfortunately I was highly unimpressed by the very first meal which was placed online and everything was correct on the receipt but our actual food, not so much. 1. $1.10 for avocado that wasn't even ripe, it was spongy and creepy looking. I'm sure they chose the smallest 2 half slices they could find. (yellow/green flesh with brown lines= NOT RIPE) 2. Ordered a Club sandwich- No lettuce or tomato on it(I even asked for extra) I guess extra means none by which was probably a good thing I guess because the simply salad I ordered for my side had 3 rotten/soft grape tomatoes in it. 3. The Tippah caviar was flavorless had to add seasoning. 4. Mac & cheese was the worst version of a box brand sold in a restaurant that there could possibly be imagined. 5. The steak sandwich was bland and dry I asked for extra cheese and caramelized onions (I guess you already know what happened?) 6. Price does not reflect portion size or quality of ingredients used. In all I will not be back for a second time. I usually am safe in saying that after about a year is when a new restaurant goes down in customer service and food quality after they've built up a decent set of followers but I must say NEWKS is already headed down a slippery slope and their just opening. I would give a word of advice. It is 2018 consumers are tired of spending hard earned money to give away to establishments that think you want to waste anymore time or money to have to come back to either get a refund, ordered corrected or to replace it at a later date. We want it RIGHT the first time just like we have to pay RIGHT at that moment. We don't get a do over and neither should you. The staff should be more aware and conscious that if they wouldn't eat it then don't serve it to a customer. Pay attention to detail and know the difference between Extra and None. I gave it two stars because I didn't want to seem cruel but you all are definitely 1 star to be new eatery.

Looked to be about six tables occupied with guests. Walked up to register. No one there. However, one gentleman, while making food spoke and said it would be just a moment. Then some lady comes up from behind and asks what I need. I ordered the salad bar as I always do. She gives me the amount, I pay, she hands me the change and nothing else. No counting back my change from the hundred dollar bill, no thank you, nothing. Walk to the end. Guy asks what I need. I said I ordered the salad bar. Had the ticket in hand. He puts the plates on tray and hands them to me. No thank you, no have a nice day, nothing. Salad bar was excellent. I will say that. Jason's is one of my favorite places because salad is my favorite food. While I sat and ate, I looked around. Most of the tables were dirty, floors were dirty, tables and chairs in disarray and yet, no more than six tables in there. The employees, with the exception of the above mentioned I spoke of look like a scene from the Walking Dead. Should Frank Darabont ever need to cast again, I would suggest starting in Columbus, GA at Jason's Deli. Complete misery on their faces. No greetings, no smiles, no communication, nothing. I am giving it three stars only because the salad bar was great but doubtful I'll be back while I'm here. Have a great day!!

There were no lids on the chafing dishes. $35 is not a lot though and while we appreciate the time in cooking, the quality of the food was not great and we ate 1/4 of each plate and we only had one plate each Finally, we gave our server eight $20 cash gratuity for the two of us and it wasn't until we got home that we realized there was an additional gratuity of 15 or $16 or something on our $70 bill so the waitress actually made $35 gratuity on a $70 bill if not more. When we were giving her the cash gratuity, it would've been good if she would've notified us we were also going to be charged on my card for the gratuity I think saying that we only ate 25% of the food we took from the buffet and watching how many people were leaving was a clear indication. The quality of the buffet was not great and I standby many items were being left out much too long and not being covered and protected, including the hot entrées and the casseroles. Lesson learned and thank thank you

A prominent menu board greets you while waiting in line, complemented by another at the ordering counter for easy perusal. The restrooms are spotless and spacious, with surprisingly comfortable seating, while the thoughtful interior design and ample, easy-to-navigate parking further enhance the overall experience. Service was genuinely attentive and warm. Multiple staff members checked in on us throughout the meal, and the team maintained a diligent pace in clearing and cleaning tables to keep the space pristine. A minor hiccup with our order was quickly resolved--though it required a bit of coordination--thanks to their persistence, ensuring we received everything as intended. The beverage station offers Coca-Cola products alongside fresh sweet tea, unsweet tea, and lemonade. The sweet tea stands out as a refreshing standout: properly brewed, balanced, and genuinely flavorful without the cloying sweetness that plagues so many others. The Food: The cheese bread arrives as a fluffy, light delight with an ideal cheese-to-bread ratio. For a barbecue joint, it's exceptionally well-executed and harmonizes beautifully with the casual, smoky setting. The Morgan White sauce wings are nothing short of outstanding--meaty, perfectly cooked, and coated in a distinctive, vibrant sauce with just the right peppery zing to make your taste buds sing. I could easily devour dozens. Equally impressive are the Mango Habanero wings, which deliver a masterful balance of sweet and heat that builds gradually without overwhelming. The smoke from the cooking process shines through, and the generous portions include both drums and flats for excellent textural variety. These require no ranch to shine. The deviled eggs were competent but unmemorable--perfectly cooked, yet heavy on onion with muted overall flavor. They're unlikely to earn a repeat order. The ribs arrived in a solid portion of three generous pieces. They boast a deep, competition-style smoke with a firm bite that yields nicely upon chewing, leaving satisfying tooth marks. Not overly sauced or seasoned, they let the quality of the meat and smoke speak for themselves--an approach I deeply appreciate. The marble brisket, unfortunately, proved a disappointment. Though beautifully trimmed with good bark and seasoning, and passing the pull-apart and finger tests with ease, it was exceptionally dry. A rare miss that I won't be repeating. In contrast, the sausage is top-tier: excellent snap in the casing, flavorful filling, and spot-on texture. The cheddar jalapeño variety is very good, though I'd love to see a classic plain option alongside it. They've clearly mastered the difficult art of sausage-making here. The pulled pork offers a generous portion with great texture, visible bark, and pronounced smoke. The turkey breast was surprisingly moist for the category--certainly far better than the brisket--with a clean smoke and seasoning profile that might even convert non-turkey enthusiasts. Sides were a mixed bag. The coleslaw is lightly dressed, allowing the vegetables' natural flavors to come through with a pleasant peppery bite. It's solid but could use a touch more dressing for my taste. The French fries, however, are exceptional--crispy, beautifully seasoned, and dangerously addictive; they nearly stole the show before the mains arrived. The beans were a miss, with a peculiar tomato-sweet-vinegar profile that strayed far from traditional barbecue expectations. I wouldn't order them again. The mac and cheese arrived looking appealing but fell short in execution: overcooked noodles with a mushy, somewhat grainy texture and muted flavor, suggesting the sauce may have broken during preparation. Sauces were serviceable. The pepper vinegar paired wonderfully with the pork, while the Carolina mustard offered a creamy, mildly biting twist. The house ranch, however, was disappointingly bland and inferior to the benchmarks set by chains like Wingstop or Texas Roadhouse. Overall Ratings: * Service: A * Cleanliness: A * Layout & Ambiance: B Food: * S-tier: Morgan White wings, Mango Habanero wings, cheese bread * A-tier: Cheddar jalapeño sausage, ribs, French fries * B-tier: Turkey breast, pulled pork * C-tier: Coleslaw, deviled eggs, mac & cheese * D-tier: Brisket * F-tier: Beans, ranch, table BBQ sauce This is a comfortable, well-run spot with several standout items--particularly those magnificent wings and sausage--that make it worth visiting. With a few refinements on the weaker proteins and sides, it could easily rise to the top tier of local barbecue destinations
