Pimento cheese sandwich. Sign me up! Made sure to stop in Birmingham just to eat here again. Pimento cheese Mac and cheese super amazing as well. Got a Caesar salad to have at least something partially healthy and that was mind blowing! Tasty ness everywhere.

I called on 09/10 at 9:15 to place a to-go order (mind you, I was already on my way) but they only answered the phone to say: "We're closed, have a nice night"! How rude of that guy! I hope the owner reads this. I'll never go back to this Newqs!

The thing I liked most was the bread of the burger by itself! Place is overly crowded. Although, it's very clean and nice but very fast food looking. Menu variety is good. Fast service and reasonable prices. Not sure I will go back but it's a nice place where to get a reasonable sandwich

Great lunch spot. Try the tomato basil soup! The salads are what makes this place great. Very green very large and very well made.

Prompt, friendly service. Clean establishment. Not much different from other Newk's locations, except a much more diverse clientele and WAY better people watching. I generally hit this spot up in the evening; due to it's close proximity to the medical district and even downtown businesses, lunch can be crazy. I still can't get over the Bacon & pimento Mac&cheese. It's a borderline obsession of mine. And I sometimes forget about the Italian sandwich, but then my eyes see hearts around it on the menu. This sandwich also holds up well as leftovers. I'll get a half sandwich and cup of soup combo, eat the soup, save the sandwich for later, stretch the dollar a bit. Taste test the tea before you completely fill your cup; it can be a bit funky at times.

Update--still a solid 4 stars. The salads are large, and all I've tried are great. Tons of ingredients and flavors. The Newk's Q is the obvious sandwich champ, though I'm reading rumors about a PB&Q, with the P standing for pork and the B for bacon...must investigate further.

While not the quickest lunch around, each order is made fresh. Their sandwiches are delicious! And for lovers of condiments, the condiment bar includes such goodies as breadsticks, olive oil & vinegar, parmesan cheese, roasted garlic, sweet pickles, hot peppers, and more. Everything I've eaten there has been great!

I had lunch here while recently in Birmingham..... this is a really good soup and salad place.... Both times I had soup and salad and both times they were excellent. I went once during lunch and it was super busy and the other time later afternoon and it was much better with a smaller crowd.

Best chicken salad sandwich I have ever tasted for sure. Im a first time Newk's patron. I will be back. I walked there from the UAB Townhouse building just a block & a half away. I found this restaurant to be so much larger than it looks from the street. Great decor... Well done!
(5)Jerry M.
Excellent menu choice. Chicken Caesar salad, red beans and rice, plus drink $20. The red beans and rice bowl was not worth $6.89. Lots of liquid, 6 or 7 beans, and a little rice. Avoid. Caesar salad was very good. Without chicken, $$5.97. Add $3.59 for chicken.

Wonderful all around. I especially like all the soup options!

Nice spot for a quick sandwich, salad, pizza, or salad. Prices are reasonable for the portion size. Great place to have lunch with friends/coworkers. The only downside to this place is the limited parking space.

Great place to get a sandwich. Always busy during lunch on the weekdays but worth the trip. The Newks Q sandwich is great...I highly recommend it. Grab some complementary crispy/crackery/crunchy breadsticks while you wait for your food.

This place is always super busy during lunch. Either go at 11 or after 12:30 if you want to snag a table. Otherwise, get it to go or be prepared to stand around and wait for one to open up. Several times they've had my food ready before I've found a table. That's a bit of a bummer. Service is usually pleasant, but really only consists of the order-taker at the counter and the person who brings your food to the table. Laminated numbers are handed out at the counter which you place in holders on the table. The atmosphere is casual contemporary. Booths line the perimeter with tables a little too closely packed in the middle. At times, you can't get in and out of your chair without having a near miss with your neighbor. The low hanging light fixtures that accompany a booth on the inside wall are a hazard to anyone over 5'4". Try for a booth on an exterior wall. Now to the food . . . good selection of soups, salads, sandwiches & personal pizza. What? You were expecting haute cuisine? This is an upscale fast-food place guys. That being said, the items I've had have been really good. The soups have a robust, depth of flavor and you get a big bowl for your dime. Try the chicken tortilla and loaded potato. The sandwiches have all been great tasting. The chicken salad is yummy with chunks of white meat, grapes & pecans. The pimeno cheese is creamy yet chunky. The grilled chicken is tender. I just wish they weren't so skimpy with the ingredients. The bread has a good flavor and consistency to it, but when they toast it . . . let's just say it can be a bit tiring to chew, chew, chew. I can't speak on the pizzas as I've never ordered one. The salads, oh the salads! Chef salad has just the right amount of ham and turkey, The black & bleu with grilled steak, bleu cheese & pecans is wonderful. Newk's "favorite" salad has grilled chicken, bleu cheese, dried cranberies, grapes, artichokes & pecans and is a treat. Another plus about Newk's . . . they have a fabulous condiment table located at the front of the restaurant. Bowls of roasted garlic, pepperocinis, sliced jalapenos, sweet pickles, shredded parmesean, capers, croutons, thin breadstick bundles, and bottles of oil, vinegar (red win & sherry), sea salt & black pepper grinders, and shirachi sauce. This makes Newk's worth going to almost by itself.

I had the best salad that I've eaten in the last year at Newk's. It was the Newk's Favorite and had mixed greens, tender chicken, dried cranberries, gorgonzola cheese, and a whole mess of other stuff, lightly dressed with a sherry vinaigrette. Super good! We did go a little on the later side for lunch (1230-ish), so it wasn't that crowded. There was no wait to order and we were served within 10 minutes. There are also "Grab and Go" salads and sandwiches, if you are pressed for time. It is, technically, upscale fast-food, but my response to that is "So what?" I travel a lot and often get stuck eating at the same Subway for 3 days if I want to eat semi-healthy. It's true that there are a lot of great places to eat near UAB, but Newk's is a winner in my book.

Great place! Toasted sandwiches, salads, pizza, wonderful desserts. Walking distance from UAB.
