I ordered the cauliflower crust here, and specifically told the cashier that I had a wheat allergy and asked what they did with that (if the answer was “I don’t know” or anything of that sorts, I probably would’ve gone somewhere else) and she said that they switched gloves, so I thought I would be okay. I was wrong. I can only assume from my feelings a couple hours after that they didn’t seem to take any precautions to prevent cross contamination. I am incredibly sick and that’s the only thing I ate recently today.
Newk’s is normally a great place to get a GF salad. However this location put croutons in my salad and then the manager pushed back instead of apologizing when I took it up to the counter. Do not go to this location.
The cauliflower crust pizza was great. No issues. I had this pizza: Portabella Veggie Baby Portabella mushrooms, red and yellow bell peppers, red onions, mozzarella, basil pesto, topped with fresh basil. One of the best pizzas I’ve ever had.
The main menu displayed doesn't include labeling for gluten friendly items, but the website was easy enough to navigate to figure out what was safe. Had the full size Garden Salad with balsamic vinaigrette (vegan) with no issues. Newk's is one of our trusted places to eat when we travel & this location was great for us. Friendly service, too. Would return when coming through Meridian next time.
They gave a “gluten-friendly” menu. Five different salads. Cauliflower crust based pizzas. GF salad dressings. Greek salad worked fine, as expected. Works well if all you want is a salad.
