Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Looking at 60 reviews, most reviewers were unhappy with their experience overall. Many customers reported a significant decline in food quality and taste, with issues like soggy fried pickles, greasy chicken, and overly salty items being common complaints. Reviewers frequently mentioned problems with their orders, including missing items, incorrect preparations, and salads that appeared spoiled or contained unwanted elements. The consistency of products was also a concern, with some items like wings being described as old, dry, or undercooked, leading to a generally unpleasant dining experience.

I put in my order at 5:20 pm according to my receipt. 5 or more customers came in and placed their order AFTER I did. The first one after me was called then the second, so I attempted to ask a manager what was going on and explain that my order was in first yet I’m still waiting while two customers that arrived after me and placed an order the same way I did are leaving or gone. The first time I said something she didn’t do anything, just kept talking to customers that would come up to the counter. Then two more customers were called that arrived after me. I said something again, all she said was the orders are prepared in the order received. I said, “ Exactly! I was here first and have been waiting quite a while. She then asked someone in the back when my order would be out. All she said to me was waiting on grilled chicken. I finally got my order at 5:44pm 25 minutes after I placed the order! Totally unacceptable! Furthermore, the employees are more concerned with the online orders and door dash orders than the people standing in front of them! You have totally lost a customer, The so called manager was useless and offered no help or explanation at all. Your stores have their priorities out of line!

Thousand island salad dressing

Why would a restaurant in business to make money do away with a salad dressing that’s traditionally made for the seniors. How do you just do away with thousand island dressing. That’s what’s wrong with this world today we will no longer eat Zaxby’s again until they decide to get the dressing back for their salads.

Won't get it again

Won't get it again. Both times I had it at the Gallatin, TN location it was just ok. Sweet tea sucked. Fries bleh.
Also don't like they have high fructose corn syrup in their sauce.

I went to Zaxby in Valdosta, Georgia, on Inner perimeter. I ordered 2 signature sandwich meal, and let me tell you that the chicken was tough and the fries were just warm. I paid almost 17.00 for rubber chicken and 2 box of half warm fries. Never again will I go back there... terrible meal....I always thought that Zaxby food was great. Well I truly have changed my mind as of today... nasty food... shame on you Zaxby...

I was very disappointed

I was very disappointed after paying over $10 for three small pieces fingers slightly bigger than one FF. It seems prices keep increasing and portions are decreasing.
It’s a shame that businesses like yours are taking advantage to get richer while everyone is getting poorer.

Hoping we don’t wake up with food poisoning

My wife and I have always been a big fan of Zaxby’s food. Visited the Acworth Ga location many times and always have been impressed with the dining experience. Today, my wife and I made the unfortunate choice to visit Zaxby’s Stilesboro Rd Kennesaw GA location. We ordered our food at 7:55pm on the app. The food was handed to us at 8:03 and we were told that we had to leave immediately because the dining room closed at 8pm. When my wife asked if we could eat our food quickly inside as it was 90+ degrees outside the employee said No! and if we didn’t leave he would have his manager come and tell us to leave. No mention on the Zaxby’s user unfriendly app that the dining room closes at such an early time. Seems like the doors would be locked to the dining room if this was a hard and fast rule. Went home only to find cold dried out chicken fingers and shrimp the size of a nickel that must of been pulled out of the refrigerator and thrown in a box. We ate one shrimp and threw the rest in the trash. The bread had apparently been sitting out all day and also found its way to the trash. Finally the French fries had obviously not been fried the proper time and were almost frozen in the center. I do not understand the overwhelming difference in the quality of the food and service in the two locations less than 5 miles apart. Needless to say I would rank this visit as the worst fast food experience I can remember. I am just hoping we do not wake up in the middle of the night with food poisoning.

My first time going to that restaurant

My first time going to that restaurant. The young lady took my order, on drive thru sounded like she did not want to be there. My first time eating at Zaxby's, put a bad taste in my mouth, that's how bad the food was. I will never go back. Every time I think about it, I wasted money at that place. Never again.

Disgusting

The salads were all wrong, didn't check before we left, we were too far to down the highway to turn around, then to top it off the young man taking the orders pants were dropped down to see his crack in his underwear😠 just disgusting, all of it.

Character

I came to Zaxby's for lunch and my order wasn't correct. I didn't notice it until I got back to work. When I called, I got the manager Asia, she said come back after work. Her customer service was 100%, not only was she professional but very friendly. We make mistakes, but how we fix it says alot about your character. Thanks Asia!

I ordered a chicken club sandwich at the Monroe, Ga location for a late lunch on June 4, 2024. The sandwich tasted like it was all fried in the same grease used to fry shrimp. If I wanted fried shrimp, I would have ordered it. I was very disappointed.

Very slow

Food was hot and very good, however, we parked and went in to the dining room for a relaxing lunch and it took 30 minutes, not exaggerating, to get our meal. The cars outside were given top priority. I have no desire to eat there anytime soon. Plus prices are high. A salad, chicken fingers and kids meal $27.

Ordered fried Cobb Salad and the small amount of chicken on the salad was ridiculous. When I asked the girl at the counter she said it was correct. I reported to the 800 number for customer service, then before we left after we ate a young girl handed me a bag with 2 small tenders. Zaxby’s at this location needs to better train their staff, when tenders are no larger than the pinky finger of a child, maybe use 3 instead of 2 as they stated.

Good Sauce and MrBeast

I like the sauce. I think the coleslaw is yuck, but the fries are alright and the toast is alright, but a little floppy. The chicken is good for Chicken Fingers, a little dry by its own but with the sauce or in a sandwich it taste good. I think that the idea of them having a MrBeast box is funny, so zaxbys gets a 4.

I just ordered the shrimp from Zaxby’s

I just ordered the shrimp from Zaxby’s. It is so salty that it is sure to give someone high blood pressure, a stroke or heart attack if they continue to eat it. I paid $10 for 8 small shrimp with fries and a drink. I couldn’t even eat it as it was just too salty. Could not taste the shrimp because the salt overpowered the taste and the shrimp felt like it wasn’t done in my mouth like it was cooked too fast. NEVER AGAIN

Zaxby's just opened in Chiefland

Zaxby's just opened in Chiefland, Fl. I'm very impressed with how great all the employees did! They were very friendly,
and I'm sure very tired! Yes, there was a very long carline, but it went pretty fast. Most importantly, the order was correct! Yay!!!
