Sandwiches, salads, and soups, oh my! I've had my eye on Newk's since they've opened...and I finally stopped in.
It's a nice open space with plenty of seating. It's an ideal stop for fast service. You can order and dine in or they have a small section to grab something to go (like you see at airports). Expect casual, fast dining here and I can see it being super popular during lunchtime. When I went, it was around 6pm and the place was vacant.
The employees were friendly and patient while I was figuring out what I wanted. I got one of their salads. It was okay. The salad bowl was very modern and was tipped at an angle...be careful or when you stab at your food it may become off balanced and topple over (close call for me).
While I don't see Newk's as one of my deliberate, go to stops, I do see it as a convenient one when in Uptown.
