Newk’s

Crispy thin-​crust personal pizzas! If only they made larger sizes. My steak sandwich was great, but next time I’ll have to ask for extra horseradish to give it a bit more authority. I chose to upgrade my side to a bowl of chili (served on Saturdays), and it was delish. It wasn’t spicy, just thick and flavorful.
Sadly they make their salads with romaine lettuce, and you have to spend 20 minutes cutting out the stems. Great dressings though, and lots of add-​ons at the condiment bar.

It’s always crazy busy here around lunch time on weekdays. However, food comes out pretty quick. The food had always been hot and edible. It’s a good place for a «healtheir» altnerative for a quick bite. I never had problems with the ladies/​guys behind the counter. A solid A-​OK place!

If I’ve been to newks before I’ve forgotten but then I’ve slept since then. This is a nice place. To go items by an exit and friendly staff. Counter service. Had a grilled pimento cheese Sammy
Wish it were
More panini ish but it did the trick. Got the (my words) redneck caviar (their term is black bean salad or salsa) for a side. Nice alternative to fries or other items you normally see. Service was quick and an area is dedicated to the shrine of condiments. Saw wine on display but didn’t catch that till I’d ordered h2o. Think they have a small beer selection. Think family dinner in or takeout and you will find yourself happy. Nice part of town. Miss living nearby

Here because I wanted a pizza. Debra pizza was good. Service OK. Too many kids on the front end doing nothing. Lack of management presence.

Great place for lunch! My favorite dish is the Italian Sandwich. Has a spicy kick to it! Prices are reasonable and the atmosphere is friendly and welcoming.

Scale = 0 to 5
Atmosphere: 3.0 — Standard, nothing really special. I do like the rotating pepper stand in the middle. The place was clean. I did not check out the restrooms (which I normally do), but still seemed to be a clean place.
Beer: n/​a I did not pay any attention to their beer selection — if they even have one. Just wasn’t in the mood for one and did not really look it over.
Food: 3.0 Food was good, not great. I had a chicken panini. It had good flavor and I liked the southern caviar as they call it. And again, really enjoyed the rotating pepper stand. Had a few of them with my sandwich.
Service: 2.8 Service was ok. They take your order at the counter then bring your food. But that is about it. They seemed confused when I asked what the down south caviar was. Three to four of them consulted before they gave me an answer. This was kind of odd, IMO. It is simply a mixture of black eyed peas and some other things.
Overall: Not bad. Just nothing special. I would not go out of my way to recommend it, but I wouldn’t say don’t eat their either.

Newks is ok and has decent food. But for the money, you get THREE times the meat on a Jason’s Deli sandwich (which is across the street). Meat portions are less than subway. A club sandwich and a kids pizza cost $ 14! I’ll stick with Jason’s Deli.

Newk’s is one of my favorite deli/​sandwich places. I like this location better for lunch, because it seems less crowded, but either Huntsville location is good at dinner time. Their options are a little more hearty than some of the other delis, but the prices are a little more expensive too. The salads are all really good, and big too! I love places with half and half options (mostly so I don’t have to choose if I can’t make up my mind!) so this place is really great whether I want soup and salad, or a half of a sandwich… I can get whatever I want.
I recommend the grilled chicken sandwich, pesto chicken sandwich, and caesar salad. I also love their tortilla soup and lobster crab bisque, especially when it’s cold outside!

I’m a fan of the half soup half salad or half sandwich option. I’m a vegetarian so it’s sort of annoying that they don’t have a vegetarian option for a soup everyday. I have to check ahead of time to see if they have one that day. With that being said, the garden vegetable soup is amazing! Also the veggie sandwich is great. The size of the drinks is awesome, sometimes I go there just for a soda or iced tea!
Newk’s is a place to go when you really can’t decide what to eat. There’s always something you can go for, but it doesn’t seem as filling as other options. I’ve never been disappointed. Unfortunately the «homemade cakes» look really unappetizing so I’ve never tried any desserts there. Also the atmosphere in there is a bit drab… Could use some better lighting!

Like the menu selection. I enjoy a place that gives me good options for soup and sandwiches.
Food has always been good. I don’t have a particular item to recommend though.

We stopped at the Newk’s on University Drive a few months ago because our «regular» deli was jam packed. Loved it. Soup, sandwiches, salads and pizza. That about covers their menu. We tried the Whitesburg Drive location last weekend and it didn’t disappoint either. The place was packed but you’d never tell from the excellent, fast service and great food. Now our only problem is going to be choosing between Jason’s and Newks.
