Great Veggie Burger

When I ate here I had the veggie burger and it was excellent. The special cilantro mayo pulled the burger together and the veggie chips were delicious...dipped with the mayo!

GREAT Food, SUPERB Customer Service, EXCELLENT Veggie Burger

by SanjayKucheria at Citysearch

One of the best places for food, service AND ambience. And celebrity-spotting if that's something you enjoy. Staff is very friendly, the cuisine is Californian (I guess). For a vegetarian like myself, this place is a godsend. The veggie burger is simply delicious. My wife and kids love Newsroom.

• Pros: Ambience, Service, Food
• Cons: Off-street Parking (plenty in the underground garage)

Great smoothies !!

by ratzzz at Citysearch

My hubby and myself and two kids often frequent this restaurant. It's kinda three things all rolled into one...a coffee house, a magazine stand and then the sit down restaurant. The atmosphere is very casual, very casual patrons...jeans,flip flops t shirts,etc. This place is pretty dang healthy, so if your looking for greasy,fattening food ( ya know the good stuff ) Ha Ha, then this place isn't for you. Even though we're not healthy eaters( yes,I admit it ), we still like this place. The drink menu is great, wonderful fruit and veggie drinks, and they have a great mint ice tea. The Veggie burger is great, as are a few other sandwiches. The best appetizer is the Hummus, it comes with great pita bread and some grilled veggies !!! Our kids like the quesadillas. Honestly though , we like to come here and get the smoothies and hummus in the midday rather than getting a full meal. The servers are always pleasant and the place is always clean. The bathrooms are clean, but for some reason the trash can in the ladies bathroom is always overflowing !!! like everytime we go. So do try this place. As for the prices..it can get pricey, especially when the smoothies average four bucks or so, and we always finish and want another one, I can't remember the exact prices of everything, but for a family of four, I wouldn't say it's cheap, but there's not too many places that are anymore I guess.

• Pros: Great service,clean restaurant,casual come as you are
• Cons: no cons

Great Vegetarian options, great service

by lucyg34 at Citysearch

Low key place where you can have fun people watching and catch up on the latest dirt with all the magazines.... Parking can be a pain if you don't know to go underneath and valet... the artichoke is amazing and so are the buffalo wings!! I am a vegan and I never get sick of them. The service is great.... Seems like a fun place to work . everytime I go I seem to have a waitress or waiter with a great sense of humor... I usually bring people from out of town here when they visit,.... I live a few block s away and I consider it my home away from home... It's a good feeling when you go somewhere and people remember you, where you feel like a regular... " like everybody knows your name".

Anyway, it's a great place... Just find parking underneath or get lucky at a meter!!

• Pros: great friendly service, great veggie options, yummy drinks and cocktails
• Cons: parking, smoothies sometimes take a long time

My Favorite Restaurant 10 Years Running

by johnmalone0916 at Citysearch

I just happened to read the previous negative review. I am shocked. I have been a good customer at the Newsroom (including my family and friends) for the past 10 years. I have never been treated like you describe. One of the reasons I frequent this establishment every week during these many years is because of the service I receive from everyone including Jenny. She makes our meals so enjoyable and always makes us laugh.

By the way I am not a celebrity and I am a person of color.

Thank you , John.

• Pros: The people there really care about you.
• Cons: None that I ever experienced

Best Carrot Cake Ever!!!

by r1a1d at Citysearch

I absolutely loved the NEWSROOM, you don't have to be a vegan or vegetarian to enjoy. The atmosphere is awesome and the food is delicious. I highly recommend this place to everyone looking for a relaxed atmosphere, great service and fab food!

Something for Everyone

by vmatt99 at Citysearch

Great place for the health conscious and huge menu variety....something for everyone! We were a party of 4 on a Sunday afternoon and It did not take long to be seated. The food was very tasty. Our waitress was friendly, quick and very responsive. She "broke' a rule and allowed the 4 of us to split our tab on 4 separate credit cards. Parking on Roberton is challenging, although there is parking in the office building next to Newsroom. Keep in mind Newsroom will validate parking, however it only reduces the amount you pay. Parking isn't free w/ validation.

Great food and fantastic service!

I have no idea what the last reviewer is talking about. No meat? Huh? Yes, they have healthy dishes for vegetarians and vegans, but they also serve chicken, fish, and filet mignon. The grilled artichoke is the best I've ever had.
