Every single one of our orders has been fast, accurate, cooked perfect, and delicious. Service is excellent. Those we recommended to try it also loved it. I never liked Cook Out before and could not understand the hype until trying this location. Well done everyone. Keep up the good work. Definitely our favorite and you are appreciated more than you know!“

If you want amazing service come here the food can be hit or miss.

“If you’re in the mood for some fried chicken, this Zaxby’s on Hershberger Road is easily one of the best fast food restaurants in Roanoke.

My wife and I DoorDash regularly, and this location has consistently been one of our favorite places to pick up from. The staff is always friendly, professional, and respectful. More importantly, delivery drivers are acknowledged and treated like valued partners instead of an inconvenience, which we truly appreciate.

I especially want to recognize Siah in the drive thru. She is one of the most motivated, compassionate, and genuinely kind employees we’ve encountered. Every interaction we’ve had with her has been positive. She treats people with respect, has a great attitude, and genuinely seems to care about the people she interacts with. Employees like Siah deserve recognition because kindness and compassion can make a bigger difference in someone’s day than they may ever realize.

From management down to the frontline employees, this location is consistently well run. Orders are usually ready on time, communication is good, and even when they’re busy, everyone works hard to keep things moving.

The food has also consistently been fresh, hot, and made correctly. Whether it’s chicken fingers, wings, sandwiches, fries, or Texas toast, we’ve always been happy with the quality.

In a time when genuine customer service can sometimes be difficult to find, this Zaxby’s continues to stand out. Great food, hardworking people, and employees who still understand the importance of treating others with kindness and respect.

A special thank you to Siah for being amazing and compassionate every single time. Please keep being the person you are. It does not go unnoticed.

Highly recommended. God bless you all 🙏“

“I've been eating at Crown's Chicken for years. As an honest review I will say I do not like the chicken. As others have comnented, it has a tough texture and not a whole lot of flavor. I'm assuming it's under heat lamps for aby amount of time. However, the double cheeseburger is absolute fire. The Gyro is really good too. The fries are always hot and unsalted (though typically the drive through guy asks if I want salt + ketchup on the side. The staff is nice although I really only have interacted with the drive through operator. It's been a pleasant experience. The prices are very competitive. Id rather spend my money here than a national fast food chain.“
