I love the different food options at Newks! The food is always prepared in a timely manner and the staff is very courteous

Good food. Don't know the sauce for the "Q" but it was great. Kids had some tasty pizza as well

Have not ordered from Newks in over a year because of the wilted/brown lettuce they put in the Newks Favorite. Broke down and decided to give them another try....bad mistake. Once again brown, translucent lettuce. Won't be back read more

Boyfriend found a glove in his salad?? Pretty gross. Not very pleased. Fast service but low quality food. read more

Newk's Eatery - two spoons and a bowl of yogurt - Sandwiches Near Me - Jackson, Mississippi

I have been here so many times, I love this place, their sandwiches are so tasty, I haven't tried their pizza but I will. I think they need to improve a bit on the service, this place is good but it can be better. Had a chicken sandwich yesterday and I thought I was eating a piece of plywood instead of chicken. read more

Newk's Eatery - Lunch gone - Sandwiches Near Me - Jackson, Mississippi

See all

The place has nice scenery for the most part. I have the "Debra" pizza along with Caesar salad and thoroughly enjoyed it! If I was basing my customer service experience off the initial person who took my order I would've classified it as mediocre. But the second employee who I encountered to get a to go container was very pleasant! read more

When you mention locations not to go to. Put this one at the top of the list! I wish I would have took pictures of my sandwich the meat was literally shredded in crumb like pieces. The manger on duty showed no empathy, barely opened his mouth, no apology no compassion. Had my sandwich made over and they made it wrong !!! Still no apology! Horrible service and poor management read more

If you order at night don't order after 7pm you will get the worst food experience ever. If the daytime staff wasn't so amazing I would never go here read more

Great place for lunch or dinner. Not to big of a menu but enough choices depending on your craving. Super busy at lunchtime but they handle the rush with ease. Sandwich breads are soft, fresh and delicious. Good quality sandwich meats with nice size portions. Just about $12 for a meal with side and drink. Have tried 5 different items on the menu while visiting from out of town and haven't been disappointed yet. Dont forget get their condiment bar with a wide variety of pickles, peppers, breadsticks and more. Coke products to drink. read more

Newk's Eatery - The Royal with Cole slaw. - Sandwiches Near Me - Jackson, Mississippi

Really really good. I was really surprised how fresh and tasty everything was and the 5 stars is for roasted garlic cloves and capers available on the condiment bar. I mean how amazing is that. I had the pepperoni pizza and it was so good as well as the Caesar salad which was one of the best I have had in years. I will be back no doubt read more

Parking here is ridic. The staff though are super friendly. The food is fresh and consistent as well. I usually get the Southern Salad or Newk's Favorite. Add avocado to either and you're talking. Big outdoor seating. Always busy in the inside. read more

Newk's Eatery - Sandwiches Near Me - Jackson, Mississippi

Drove through Jackson and stopped at Newks for a spicy shrimp pizza and it was delicious. I always get a side of honey mustard and sprinkle it on top of my pizza which makes it even better. My toddler had the Little Newks cheese pizza and ate every piece of it. The restaurant was clean and staff were nice and friendly. It's definitely a great place for lunch! read more

Newk's Eatery - Spicy shrimp pizza - Sandwiches Near Me - Jackson, Mississippi

This used to be such a consistently quality location for Newk's. The past year or so it has fallen off so much. Slow service at the registers, lackluster bussing of the tables, and the food looks like it is literally "thrown together". Unfortunate as this was a go to for a family for both dine-in and carry out, but I just don't trust them to execute anymore. There are too many competitors nearby who seem to be able to execute on a regular basis. read more

I arrived at here as my daughter recommended it. I ordered the southern chicken salad on romaine lettuce. I asked for the chicken salad to be switched to salmon. The menu said this was $3.10. The cashier was about to charge me 6.79. I asked why and showed her the menu. She called the manager Alex who said it was 6.79. I asked why when it said 3.10. She said because they can charge more. I can read, comprehend and do math. I advised her I want the salad but for the additional $3.10. She advised she wasn't gonna so that. As the black cashier continued to try and help, ALEX who is white put her finger in the black cashier face, and shoved her lightly away. I was disgusted so I decided not to make a purchase! I won't eat NEWKs read more

Never order curbside because they will never bring it out to you. After sitting for 10 minutes I went inside and the cashier says there are no curbside orders ready yet unless you ordered a pizza. Guess what.... I ordered that pizza that has been sitting for 20 minute, because now I'm standing in line behind people placing orders. read more

I love Newks they even have the half-size salads that I buy 4 at a time so I can half my lunch for my work stretch. I haven't found a place like this. I love their chicken salad and their sandwiches are absolutely delicious. I go there so much they know my name. I haven't found anything that I dislike. Their pizza tastes amazing as well. It is our go-to meeting place with friends and family. They catered my husband's 50th birthday along with Moe's and it was a big hit with both friends and family. I love Newks and the people who prepare for my food. Monique M. read more

yeah this is the worst pizza ive ever gotten from a newks. the spicy shrimp is my fave and there is barely anything on this one. mostly bread. pretty disappointed. read more

Newk's Eatery - spicy shrimp pizza - Sandwiches Near Me - Jackson, Mississippi

Does not answer phone over 30 minutes before closing. Why not change your hours and close at 5pm so your customers don't waste their time getting an order together. read more

Guess they just didn't feel like adding any cheese to the pizza tonight, or flavor. They're typically delicious, but I believe the other reviewer has it right about not ordering from this location at night. I'd ordered carryout and when I opened it at home, it seemed okay until I noticed all the toppings on my portobello veggie pizza was falling off, every time I picked up a slice. Their food quality is typically very good, but I have noticed a negative change, especially during evening hours. Prices have gone up everywhere and competition is plentiful in Jackson, so I can do without this eatery for quite a while. read more

Very friendly staff! The manager Darnell went above and beyond to make things right!!!

Updated review: BEWARE! They NEVER get orders right and they are so rude if you try to get correct order. I hate writing bad reviews, but this has happened 2 too many times at this restaurant. So I feel like it's our fault for always going back due to convenient location. The food is good, but... the customer service at the Jackson, MS location is awful. Almost every time we order the order is messed up. On our visit today 5/30/23 they left out our full Newks Q sandwich. My husband picked up the order and thought I had just gotten a side salad as my meal so he got all of the way to the house which is when I asked where my sandwich was. We called the restaurant and the lady on the phone said she was looking at the sandwich. She called out to the manager and said "someone left their sandwich out of the bag" and the manager yells out "if they want it they can come back and get it" no apology or offer to refund so we didn't have to come back. It's just ridiculous a restaurant can be ran like this. Manager didn't even get on the phone. they need lessons in customer service. I was in the industry for 10 years. A simple apology or doing anything to try to mitigate the situation goes a long way. (The lady who initially answered was very polite, maybe she should be promoted to manager) read more

Newk's is a chain alright, but without the cookie cutter feel of typical chain restaurants. The salads are massive and you can add your choice of croutons or pickles or sauces to it from the condiments table. I tried the half shrimp poboy and soup combo and K got the shrimp remoulade salad. I'd say my meal was pricey--$7.60-- for a sandwich that was smaller than the 6" Subway sandwich. I like my shrimp fried when its inside a poboy, but Newk's boiled shrimp was healthier I guess. And not too bad on taste either. I liked that they gave me a dip on the side. With my sandwich I got chicken tortilla soup which would have been perfect if they'd gone easy on the salt and thrown in a few more tortilla strips. As for the remoulade salad, it was delicious. How do I know? Well, K tucked into it like it was serious business and he didn't look up for half an hour. I asked him for a bite, but he shook his head vehemently. We didn't speak a word till every lettuce leaf and shrimp was gone from that enormous bowl! And that's how I know the salad was great :) read more

I wish I could just write a review for all Newk's chain locations everywhere, but I chose to review this particular location because it's the lowest-rated location I've actually been to. And yes, four stars is too low in my opinion. Newk's is far and away my favorite chain restaurant around. Better than all fast food places, even high-end options like Chick-Fil-A. Better than McAlister's. Better than Applebee's. Better than Chili's... Etc. And it's because their food doesn't taste like chain restaurant quality. They have phenomenal salads. I recommend the Greek salad with added chicken. The Cobb is good, too, as is the Newk's Original and the Ultimate Salad. And their salads are huge--well worth the price. They have great sandwiches, too. Their chicken salad is so good that it has spoiled me so I can't eat chicken salad from anywhere else. Their Club is also a go-to for me, and I even get their veggie Club on occasion. They're always made with thick, warm, toasted bread and fresh-tasting ingredients. I don't get their soups often, but when I do, I am always impressed. Even when I get soup to-go, I have never eaten a bowl of their soup that was anything less than piping hot. No microwave needed. And their soup portions match their salad portions, too. I recommend tomato basil and roasted vegetable. Finally, their homemade cakes are worth a separate, standalone trip, as I have often done. Strawberry in particular is a home run to me. More specifically, these trends hold up at this particular location, too. They also have fast and friendly service even at the lunch rush. And the restaurant is clean inside and outside. If I had to say anything negative about this location it'd be that occasionally it's hard to find a parking place. But that's all I can come up with. I can't recommend them enough, obviously. I can't imagine you'll be disappointed after giving them a try. read more

I've been eating at Newk's for years and the food is pretty good. I've had a couple of less than stellar experiences but overall it's fine. Love the pizzas and I recently discovered their Italian sub. Really good sandwich and I'm not much of a sandwich guy as I normally do the soups, salads and pizzas. Definitely recommend it. read more

Fast and friendly service. I especially like the outdoor patio area and view. Lovely on a warm evening! Like other Newk's they have great soup and sandwich options. Pizzas are not bad either. Only downside is the deserts don't always taste fresh as they are a bit on the dry side. Still would recommend. read more

O.k. - I am going to play the pessimist for this review. I'm a northerner by birth, (born in Cleveland, OH), and lived in NYC, Chicago and Miami as a youth. Which means I grew up in places with real deli's - whether they were Jewish, Italian and/or polish. With saying all that, Newks is aaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhh, it's alright, but it's not four star worthy. The cuts of meat are franchise portion and your paying, a serious price for a lunch. I work to hard for my money to spend it frivolously on ambiance and to me, that's really what you are paying for. If your a world traveler and a true foodie, don't get your hopes up, because - it is what it is. read more

A couple of months or so ago I would have given Newk's 5/5 stars, but they have changed the way they cook their chicken and it's horrible. I don't know if it's just this location, but how they can still have "flame grilled chicken" as the description is just wrong. They bake it in the oven and somehow it ends up tasting like turkey, not chicken. I've e-mailed management about this, but I guess there aren't enough people complaining to change it back. But everyone I've asked that has eaten it says it's not good. I used to eat here once or twice a week because my office is right across the street, but now it's more like once a month and I will NEVER eat the chicken again. read more

I love me some pimento cheese mac and cheese. That's pretty much the whole reason for going here according to my mississippi friends. I have to agree with them, it was the pretty tasty. THe sandwiches were really good to and i would totally get them again. The mac and cheese was creamy and had little chunks of cheese that melted in your mouth. It was awesome! read more

Great spot for lunch. Service and food is very good. The salads are great, try the Ultimate.

Not often I get a bad serving from Newks, but I did today. Generally their soups are wonderful. And a nice variety. So I come often to get a bowl of soup for lunch. Today I ordered the mushroom soup and I was very disappointed. I am not sure what the problem was, but it did not taste good. Send your cooks back to the kitchen, Newks, and tell them to come up with a better testing bowl of Mushroom Soup. Your reputation is a good one and you do not want it tarnished by one soup. read more

Really delicious Black & Bleu salad. It's steak with blue cheese dressing. It hit the spot! My husband had a steak sandwich he enjoyed. My daughter had the pepperoni pizza along with a side of Mac n cheese. The Mac n cheese was delicious but it was a very small portion for almost $5. We were passing through Jackson & it was suggested by a family member. The staff was very attentive. read more

Never have been disappointed with the food here. The salads are a go-to, with a variety of options and sizeable portions. My personal favorite is the Newks favorite. Another standout is the pizza, delicious and thin crusted. The wait isn't long and if you get their delicious sweet tea, you have a cup to take home as well. read more

I love Newk's! The food is delicious! Great place to grab a quick lunch! They don't have a Newk's where I live, so I always make it a point to stop by! read more

Good salads high prices staff is friendly! Been going here for a couple years now wish they had a reward system or discounts!

Me and the fam wanted a sandwich shop to grab a quick lunch and I was introduced to Newk's. I love this place! The atmosphere was very calming and relaxing with lots of sun and vibrant colors. It is a cafe: you order your food, received a number and your food is brought out to your table. You get your own drink. Our table had a variety of items for me to taste: a personal pepperoni pizza (okay), a chicken salad sandwich (yum), a grilled chicken sandwich (wonderfully seasoned), and my Italian sub was right on point along with the cup of potato soup that I enjoyed above all other. I was also eye hustlin the food that other patrons ordered and I saw some salads and other sandwiches that I lusted after. I will be back here. Good ole fun food. read more

Newk's is a regional chain of "high-end" deli's. The atmosphere is casual and fun. The food is quite good with excellent salads. Service is quick and friendly. Multiple locations around the Jackson area. read more

Newk's is addictive. From the group that brought you McAlister's, this is a nice take on a deli. They have good cakes, fresh salads, and tasty sandwiches. I find that you can spend a little bit too much here, once you factor in a drink, depending on the meal, but that is just vs. other sandwich type places. It is pretty well on par with most other lunches (or dinners for that matter). I like that you are able to load up on pickles, jalapenos, garlic (garlic!!), etc. without the need to order it separately. The drinks come in take home cups and you are able to find Splenda sweetened tea, if you are watching your calories. The salads are huge; some could easily feed two, if you wanted to share. The Newk's Q is a sandwich with a taste I have yet to find elsewhere. Anyway, I am a fan! read more

Charged us $15 for a soup and salad. We ordered 2 soups and 1 salad. We received 1 soup and 1 salad. After driving back to the restaurant, the best they could do is discount a tea. Still no soup. It's a great way to make sure customers don't come back. I feel like we got robbed. read more

I should review all of the Newk's I've been to, but this is the one I've been to the most. It's on the way home from church, so naturally, my family stops here a lot. And we usually race everyone else from church to get there first. Newk's is a "fast casual" restaurant (thanks Wikipedia!). That means you order at a counter, get a number, and go sit down. Their menu is diverse from pizzas, salads, soups, and sandwhiches, with interesting sides. The best thing about Newks is their massive cup sizes (32 oz) and the Round Table. The round table has condiments like homemade croutons, which can be amazing to bland depending who made them, capers, garlic, pickles, parmesan cheese, and other things. They also keep all the napkins, salt & pepper shakers, sriracha + other hot sauces, breadsticks, and to-go containers at the round table. Everyone in my family has their favorite "snack" aka appetizer for waiting for our food. I like to eat the capers hahahaha. I bet Newk's hates me because I've bought capers before at the store, and they're kinda expensive. I've seriously been to Newks in Atlanta, Oxford, Hattiesburg, Nashville, Murfreesboro, Cool Springs, Ridgeland, and Clinton. Probably more. My favorite foods are as follows (you're welcome) 1. Newk's Q - their best sandwhich. Chicken, cheese, bacon, and white barbecue sauce from heaven. 2. Fire roasted tomato soup - This one's a little tricky since it's a summer only soup, and their soup schedule is wack. They seriously only serve certain soups on certain days, so you kinda have to plan to get this soup. If it is not an option, second best is Tomato Basil (winter), and then after that the Chicken Tortilla, which uses the Fire Roasted Tomato as its base. However, please know that the Chicken Tortilla soup is the highest sodium content menu item. 3. Pasta salad side - delicious pasta salad with snap peas, olives, onions, and a good italian style vinegar dressing 4. Newk's favorite salad - just go read the ingredients on the menu and you'll understand. Pecans!!! Plus I dare you to eat the whole thing. 5. Shrimp Po'boy is pretty good. I like to ask for horseradish sauce to be added which gives it an extra "umph!" Plus, for diet drink addicts like myself, they have Coke Zero AND Diet Dr. Pepper at this location. These are also officially the best diet drinks. ALSO, almost forgot that they do serve wine and beer here. Not very fancy, but kinda fun for a fast and casual date for the fast and casual modern woman ;). Also, their catering is just normal sandwiches and not that great. read more

I love the sandwiches and pizza. I just wish they were a little bigger because what they call a footlong is more like a six inch sub.
