Reviews for Newk's Eatery in Waco, TX
Soup.salads..sandwiches were all delish!
I went here for the first time with a friend. The food is a little on the high end price wise, but if you ask me it is worth... it. I got a sub and the tomato basil soup. I loved that the soup had chunks of real tomato in it. I also got a slice ofcake! That cake was so moist! Read more
Went there 2 weeks ago and they got my order wrong and try to blame me. I asked the cashier for a Philly cheese steak but... instead I got a chicken sandwich. When the manager came and brought it to me I told her that it's not what I asked for I askedfor it a Philly cheese steak, and she said "oh you must have ordered it wrong then". I laughed and said no. Workers took a whileto clean. Philly cheese had finally came out, but the veggies were raw and the meat chewy and red. No sauce of any sorts on thebread. Read more
It was my wife?s turn to pick a place to eat, and she picked here. Won?t lie, I had a little trepidation about a place that sold... salads?. She made a great choice! The basil tomato soup was amazing! I?d go there just for that. Then, the chicken saladsandwich was good, too. Just be prepared to add a little salt. It is a nice change of pace. Read more
We've been here a few times now. It was quite busy when we arrived. There were two women working the order counter. One was... talking with guests, inviting them up when she was free, and engaging. The other woman just stared at people until they walkedup to her. It was a bit awkward to talk with her as she didn't really want to be there. Aside from that, the food was delicious.I got a salmon caesar salad and my partner got the club sandwich with a side of mac. The bread on the sandwich was lightlytoasted, but still but soft inside, so the guts didn't spill out when you took a bite. The Mac 'n cheese was tasty. The saladwas good, though the dressing was a bit salty and the croutons were bigger than they needed to be. The salmon was well cookedand not overly seasoned. The tables were clean, and we were served promptly. The staff overall was friendly and engaging. Thelunch crowd had cleared out during our stay, and the woman from the counter that was friendly took a few minutes to check on afew guests and chat with them which was nice. Staff was cleaning back of the house as well. Prices are a bit high, but it's agood place to eat. Inside and outside seating options are available. We will be going back. Read more
Loved the turkey avocado sandwich and pasta! My favorite thing about Newk's is their fresh Sweetened w/Splenda tea!! I do wish... Newk's/corporate would bring back goat cheese on the Pesto sandwich - it's NOT the same without it (it used to be my absolutefavorite and I drove 25 miles 1 way to get it - they took goat cheese off the menu when Covid happened)!!

They have the best soup, sandwiches, and salad. The food was great, no doubt about it but the prices and portions uhhhh way too... expensive. The mac and cheese was a joke especially for the price? Good food but expensive. We probably will go back but justonce in a while and not our regular sandwich place because of the small portion and high price. Update: 10/23/2020 Visited thisplace tonight for some pizza. Great service and loved to see how clean the place was and how the restaurant was following socialdistancing guidelines. The Mediterranean pizza is a must try, you can also order pizza made with cauliflower crust. Read more
First time diner here. The portobello veggie pizza was delicious. The crust was fresh made and cooked perfectly. This flavor... packed pizza left us wanting more! For our kids the Mac n Cheese meal was a hit. I had the Newk Q sandwich and it was deliciousas well. They also had some really nice reusable Christmas cups for your drinks. We definitely will return.
