“My original review is below, after I posted this Kristi from Chick Fil A contacted me, apologized about the service and made things right. It is not often business's acknowledge their mistake and fewer who are willing to make it right and keep a customer. Kudos to Chick Fil A and their commitment to quality! and thanks Kristi.
We ordered a 30 piece nugget and maybe got 25 with many tiny pieces. Very disappointed, this was part of our Christmas Eve meal so not a great time to get something sub par. I had to re heat them so you can see way less then the 30 we ordered.“

“service tonight 4/25 is very rough. I understand it's a busy night, but there is absolutely no need for the assistant manager to get an attitude, when he rang up the wrong item. (ordered large drinks, he rang up large fries. didnt notice until after we paid) when asked where the large drink was, he got an attitude and said that we didn't order a second drink. I've had countless good experiences here, ans will continue to come back. BUT, just because it's busy, there's absolutely NO reason to get an attitude with customers. especially when you're in the wrong.“

“I stopped by yesterday on a Friday the 13th. The chicken was hot, fresh and crispy and delicious. I got the wing dinner and ask for dark biscuit and it was crisp, butter and fresh. It was so good I got a sausage on dark biscuit to go. Who ever was the cook that day, did an awesome job at preparing the food for its customers. I will be stopping by again.“

“I wanted to take a moment to give a huge shoutout to Samir(hope I spelled it right) for helping us out today. He was the only one at the front and he was still so kind and we had a big order for my staff and he helped us get all the food to the car. Going above and beyond is somewhat rare these days so I wanted him and his supervisor to know he was appreciated!!“

“Let me start off by saying how AMAZING Tim the manager is. When I get off after a long day at work (working in the food industry) I look forward to having a meal at Wendy’s and he makes my experience just simply ordering though the drive through a memorable one. I had a few mess ups with my order before, and I understand we’re just human, and when I came back there to get it fixed he was above and beyond at making sure he fixes it for me. Not only is he nice at the loud speaker but he’s pleasant to talk to up when Im paying and receiving my order. This industry is NOT easy by any means, and you can get burnt out, yet he still seems so caring about the way he does his job it made me smile driving home. It really is the little things in life. so if you’re reading this, thank you!!! I also wanna give a shout out to Brenden for also delivering my order with care to my car, great service!“

“I stopped by this Zaxby’s after a few months away, and overall the experience was still reliably good. The food quality has remained consistent across my visits — my order was correct, served at the right temperature, and presented well, which is something I’ve come to expect from this location. The staff continues to be polite and professional. I wouldn’t call the service exceptional, but it’s consistently acceptable, and everyone stays busy and engaged in their work.

The restaurant was clean throughout my visit. I was there for over an hour catching up with a friend, and the drink station stayed clean the entire time. I also noticed team members wiping down tables whenever they weren’t taking orders, which is always a good sign of solid day‑to‑day upkeep.

There have been a few changes since my last visit. The drive‑thru setup outside has been improved, and traffic flows much better now. Parking has also been adjusted so cars in the drive‑thru aren’t blocking people trying to park. Inside, the seating area has been reworked and brightened up with fresh paint, giving it a nicer overall feel. The only downside was noticing a few cosmetic shortcuts — the booth I sat near had old holes and anchors that were simply painted over instead of properly patched. That feels more like an issue with whoever handled the remodel rather than Zaxby’s itself, but it did stand out. I was also disappointed to see that the Coke Freestyle machine is no longer at the drink station, since that was always a nice perk.

Even with those small misses, this is still a good place to grab a meal and catch up with friends, and I’ll definitely be back again soon.“
