Newk's Eatery

I only get soup here and don’t get sick but I wouldn’t trust it for anything else

Note: I have food allergies to wheat, beef, and some nuts. I do not have celiac disease. They have a folder that lists what allergens are in which dishes (ask a manager). I have sent salads back that had croutons and they are always nice and apologetic. Cross contamination is an issue but they said beef and chicken are cooked separately and I did not have a reaction.

They brought my salad out with croutons even after asking for no croutons. They then brought out the wrong salad. I do not recommend.

Celiac friendly?

No

Gluten free menu was difficult to find but the server was able to tell me the gluten free options. The new cauliflower pizza they said is gluten free.

Staff in West End Nashville said there is no gluten free menu and no gluten free items.

Celiac friendly?

No

This location has an allergen list available to view if you ask for it - but the staff appeared baffled that anyone would ask about what was in the food. The allergen list wasn’t very clear and both the employees ( one was presumably the manager) only offered conflicting information with what was listed. I.e why all the salads ( without dressing) where labeled to have gluten and soy in them- his answer was the dressing. Plan on eating somewhere else.

Celiac friendly?

No

Very nice and helpful. Have to stick to salad or the thai soup (if available that day) but you get a protein with the salad so it's very filling. And delicious, might I add. 🙂

I have personally never had a great experience after eating at any of Newk’s locations, including this one. Too much going on in the kitchen area to avoid cross contamination.

Celiac friendly?

No
