Most prominent dishes in the menu

There are also fried cheddar bites to soothe your nerves and onion rings to remind you to come back for more. Their grilled sandwiches are worth an honorable mention. They are well-cooked and aptly-seasoned. Indeed, seasoned chicken connoisseurs may not like Zaxby’s warning, “Eating at Zaxby’s may become very addictive” and the fact that the restaurant is only open for lunch and dinner. If you consider the Zaxby’s menu prices vis-a-vis those of other restaurants, you will understand why this warning was necessary. 

Brief history

Formed 28 years ago in Athens, Georgia, U.S, Zaxby’s has a very humble background. Its first restaurant was in Statesboro, Georgia. The founders Zach McLeroy and Tony Townley were childhood friends. The restaurant went through its teething states successfully, emerging as a favorite restaurant for chicken lovers in a few years after its inception.

With Zaxby’s menu prices being everything that people expected, its growth was surely going to come. And rightly so, in 2016, its sales amounted to $1.6 billion, an improvement of 13.3%. That is how the restaurant found its way to the list of the fastest-growing restaurant chains by Nation’s Restaurant News, taking position 8. This same year, it opened 91 locations. 

One of the things that put Zaxby’s in the map of top restaurants in the US its series of commercials that featured top celebrities like Cindy Williams, Bobby Allison, Richard Karn, Rachel Dratch and Rachel Dratch between 2007 and 2013. It is also featured in the video game Midnight Club as a restaurant in Los Angeles. Furthermore, it has several sponsorship deals with football and basketball clubs in the US. 

Currently, Zaxby’s boasts of 800 locations, 123 of which are its own and the rest are owned by franchisees. At this rate, this restaurant will take over America in a few years. It may be young but it is already giving big names in the restaurant industry a run for their money.
