Zaxby’s
Name: Zaxby’s
Type of Food: Chicken, chicken fingers, buffalo wings, salads.
Interesting Fact: At Zaxby’s, they love the letter Z. On their menu, for example, appetizers and salads become Zappetizers and Zalads at Zaxby’s.
History: Zaxby’s founders Zach McLeroy and Tony Townley looked around their community and saw plenty of fast food or sit-down dining options, but felt something was missing. They decided to provide the most delicious chicken fingers and Buffalo wings in town. That hatched a simple idea to create a fun atmosphere where food quality is of the utmost importance. In March 1990, they opened the first Zaxby’s in Statesboro, Georgia. Its menu is built around buffalo wings and chicken fingers, including them on platters, in sandwiches, and on salads (called Zalads on their menu).
McLeroy and Townley opened four more restaurants, and in 1994, they began to franchise the brand. The food and service was so popular, the Athens, Ga.-based chain has boomed to more than 470 units in 11 states (Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas and Virginia) and is still expanding.

I have made three visits to Zaxby’s drive threw window. The first visit I was satisfied with my order. The next to visits the food was very bad. Each visit I ordered traditional hot wings and the last two visits there wasn’t any sauce on the wings. Do I need to go inside and order so I can check my food in front of the employee so they can fix the order before I drive all the way home?

Unfortunately,they’ve joined the quality drop that comes with expansion. Sauce is now thinner, and the wings are no longer cooked to order…dehydrated. Heating lamp issued. Celery must be $5 a pound, because it’s shrinking! What once was”top-of-the-pile”, now is “no big deal” Is it just that way in Savannah?

Rush and Rudeness, They want you to leave the drive window , they dont give you a chance to check the order, cold fries smashed old bread.
Last time we went to the Acworth location they employees were too bussy closing down at 9.30 PM chairs were up and the female manager was too bussy talking with the staff, I guess our money is not good enough we left, party of 4, you wont get our money again.
This location has gone down in the last few months .

Just wanted to let you know that I’m very unhappy with the fact that the Zensation Zalad has been discontinued!! This was my favorite thing @ Zaxbys, and now the menu is just as ordinary as the other chicken places!

I’m very unhappy, my son loves fried pickles and to his great dismay, when we arrived, we were told that fried pickles were no longer on the menu. After we left he told me he no longer wanted to come here (zaxby’s) anymore.

I just went to the drive thru in Elberton Georgia. I use to get great food there with no problems, but today I ordered for 3 people. The fries were cold so I took them back and they took the food back and returned and I picked up the fries still cold. I am going to try Zaxby’s one more time because I love there food, but that didn’t make any sense to me. I was very disappointed and the kids were too.

Zaxbys is a great place 2 work.. I’ve been an employee 4 about 4 months.. Love d environment my team n managers.. Wher i work n owensboro we dnt sale much chicken salad sandwiches.. I believe we either needa take it off our menu or change it a bit 2 give more flavor.. A Chicken place should make ther own chicken salad.. I believe if we Jus add sum of our tenders 2 d mix or like sum fruit like grape it wood increase sales.. I also do believe we need sum kinda special bbq’d chicken sandwich.. We should post sumtin on fb n Wat ever gets mentioned more should become d next thang on menu.. I personally dnt like goin places 2 eat Wher they never change nothin same old food.. Our customers should have sum control n decide.. Its like us n customers should b like family n they should get that vibe when they are n our hands……. Zaxbys!

@Julie on Jun 9th,2011 says she loves the fried pickles and can’t wait until they bring them back. Well, young lady, it Jan2012 and they just brought them back but even my dog wouldn’t eat the ones I got today at Z’s in Aiken SC. Used to love Sonics but they stopped having them, so saw the sign today at Z’a and decided to try them. Whoa, are they bad! First of all they looked nothing like the photos on the ad circular(heavily coated with meal) and were dark and tasted very bad. I only got 10 for $1.89 and they were small. Even after dipping them in ranch sauce I could only eat 5 of them.These looked like they had been dipped in meal and then hot grease which wiped all the coating off in spots. Yep, I filed a complaint online with Zaxby’s. Stay tuned.
