I've only visited twice just because it is close to my job and I have no problem with the food. But the workers there are rude, they rush you to order and aren't polite. It seems like they are very impatient with the customers. Please...take tips from Chik-Fil-a customer's service so we can have a better experience. Hopefully management consider this as a serious matter.More

I will give the Byram Newks one star only because you can’t give them anything less. Tonight’s experience was a total debacle. The manager was rude, belligerent and totally disrespectful. After we had given our order the manager came out and said that we had...to have our food served in to go plates and that we had to leave by 9:00. We arrived at 8:35 and was told that there was no more dining in even though the sign says that they are open until 9:00. So I guess that we have to play telepathy with them to know when they are really open to dine in and when they are not. The group that we were meeting had arrived about 20 minutes before us. After the manager successfully treated us with total disrespect she then began to speak negatively about how long that our friends had been there. Then when we sit down we find that three of them still hadn’t received their food. I have no problem abiding by the rules but when one has a nasty, belligerent attitude it really kills my desire to ever eat there again. So, yes I’ll say that is the last time that we will eat there and I will tell anyone that says that they are going to eat there to go at their own risk.More

I’m super irritated by this place. Upon arrival, we were greeted and the employee was very nice while taking our order. They provide plastic souvenir cups for the drink and upon placing my drink order, the employee hesitated when giving me a cup. It was...already sitting on the counter, so I figured he pulled it out while I was placing my order. Boy, was I wrong! After finding a table, I took a close look at my cup and it looked like it had been rolling on the floor. Hair was on the outside and inside. I then realized that my cup did not come from the stack of cups. There’s no telling how long it had been sitting there. I switched it out for a clean cup and thought all my problems were over. I ordered a sandwich and 6 cheese macaroni for a side. The macaroni was cold so I took it back. After waiting a long time, I went to check on it. The employee said he forgot to make me another and that he’d get right on it. He let me get a free dessert for my troubles. I choose the lemon cake and it was pretty good. Macaroni #2 came out piping hot and looking way better than #1. It was really good! If only they could be consistent with it. Now on to the positives. The club sandwich was good and there’s an area where you can get unlimited pickles (so yummy), breadsticks and other things to compliment your meal. Also, minus the cup incident, the place looked really clean (bathrooms included). I think I’d be open to trying another Newk’s location, just not sure I’d go to this one again.More

I eat at Newk's all the time in Hattiesburg and it is outstanding. The one in Byram is exactly the opposite. After a long day at the doctor's office in Jackson, we decided to leave the city and stop at Newk's in Byram. When we...walked in there was no one at any register. After waiting for a few minutes a bus boy stopped what he was doing and came and took our order. I always go for the roasted garlic at the round table but didn't see any. I then realized the black stuff in the jar was their garlic. Totally black and burned. They put burned garlic out for customers. In a few minutes the bus boy came over and told us they were out of shrimp for our pizza so we had to change our pizza order. Then we waited. And waited. Newk's is supposed to be "fast casual" so after 35 minutes (I looked at the time ordered on my receipt) I got up and asked for the manager. I politely requested my money back so we could go somewhere else that could serve food in a timely manner. She apologized and did refund our money. She explained they had a large catering order they were working on. I think a good manager could have got out the catered order AND satisfied the restaurant customers also. Plus kept food in stock. After all, that's their job. I'll still go to Newk's just not this location.More

This is not my typical response , but.... Super rude and unprofessional. I don’t plan on going back and will let my opinion be known. If there was a minus 5 star that is what I would give them.

I had the crab and lobster bisque. It was delicious but not as hot as I like it. I ordered a bowl. Before I finished half of it, it had cooled to a tempature that was too cold for me to enjoy. My husband got...the club sandwich and cowboy caviar which he enjoyed a great deal. The best part of my meal was the pickles. I also had a 25% off coupon which they wouldn't honor.More

This is a great place for a quick meal. I don't know why they are listed twice in the reviews, they are in the same place (express is the take-out).

You really can't go wrong ordering anything on the menu from this location. My personal favorite salad is the Newk's Favorite . I sometimes omit the cheese and croutons to reduce calories as well as add extra greens. When I do this I have the...option to split the salad into 2 meals so that I can have a healthy lunch the next day.More

Wife and I visited this location for a quick bite before going out on the town. The staff was very nice and quickly took our order. We sat for a few minutes and our food came out hot and flavorful. No complaint on our part...for this visit. Everyone was busy getting orders out and the restaurant was very clean. There was a lot of seating at this location. They did a great job.More

The low rating is because I ordered wrong and I asked for help from two servers and could not get it. Newks is famous for their Half and Halfs. Both my husband and I got a half sandwich and a half salad. When we got...up to order we found out that the only salads available is caesar and simply salad. That was disappointing but we went ahead and ordered. He ordered a half of a club sandwich and I ordered the shrimp poboy. The club was good. My shrimp was tasteless. The bread was over toasted and really hard for me to eat. The shrimp were sauteed or grilled with no seasoning. It was served with a cocktail sauce. I asked the server to bring me some remoulade sauce. They serve a shrimp remoulade salad so I thought this was a reasonable request. She never returned. After 5 minutes, I went to the take out counter and asked again. I was offered White Barbeque Sauce and Honey Mustard. Neither of which was enhancing to the sandwich. On my Caesar salad the dressing was so vinegary, I could not eat it without going to the toppings bar and getting some olive oil to tone down the vinegar. But as I said, we were eating with a group of new friends from church and their lunches looked awesome. The lobster and crab bisque looked really good as did the pizzas that surrounded me. As I said I should have gone with my first instinct and gotten soup and salad. I should have asked more questions and made less assumptions. I do not care for this style of ordering because I am indecisive and I feel pressure to order because people are behind me.More

Newks is a chain that maintains a high level of constancy. The food is always good with nice portion size. They always get the food to you quickly. I really like their pizzas.

We were looking for something a little different while visiting family and friends in Byram, MS. The staff personnel were very warm and friendly, and as this was our first visit to a Newk's, they were extremely helpful and patient. We really enjoyed our order...-- boutique pizza and a really huge salad... very good. We purchased some yummy homemade cake to-go as well ... we were full, so we got the cake to eat in our motel room later.More
