text: Have to admit I avoided this place for awhile because I found the name very unappealing for a restaurant. \nI know, I know. \nBut it's true.\n\nFast forward. Wandered in for lunch with a friend WITH a baby in a stroller. Welcome to TOTAL CHAOS. Our mistake.\n\nHowever, the manager immediately saw our deer in the headlights look, and cleared a table for us and stashed the stroller out of the way.\n\nThat was the first win for customer service. \nFollowing that, all the staff were extremely friendly and seemed genuine about it too.\n\nThree words about the food. \nChicken salad sandwich. \n\nI sincerely love it.\n\nIt's mayo-based, made fresh every day and served on a nicely soft-yet-slightly crunchy baguetteish bread. \nThey also dress the sammy with rustic mustard which I personally love.\n\nThe Greek salad is also tasty. Well dressed and plenty to share or have as an entire meal. \n\nSIDEBAR: I loathe salads served on plates ( seriously, who wants to push their salad around and potentially off the plate in hopes of stabbing/getting the correct  combo of ingredients  on your fork?)\n\nBut Newk's serves their salads in asymmetrical bowls for easy enjoying.\n\nWhile I definitely avoid this place during lunch hours - even the to go wait seems long - I certainly enjoy my off-peak hour chicken salad indulgences here more often than I care to share.
