Zaxby’s

Went around 1:30pm and got a wings and things through the drive thru. Bad deal. Everything soggy and room temp. Knew I got my food to fast.

Yummy. Road trip from New Orleans and we had to find a Zaxbys. I honestly don’t know how they have better salads than most restaurants. Super fresh ingredients, chicken perfectly grilled and tender. I got the cobb salad and the portions are generous. Super fast even though we were at peak lunch time.
Can’t wait until y’all open in south Louisiana. No more wilted, sad salads from Panera for me once I can get a Zalad Bowl. Hurry up, Zaxbys!!!

My girlfriend’s and I decided to go out to lunch on a whim because one of them was craving a «Zaxby’s salad.» Since there is a new Zaxby’s less than 5 minutes away from where we were, we decided to go check it out.
I’ve only been to Zaxby’s once, and that was in another town. I liked it before but honestly, was not sure what to expect. I chose to get the house salad, with fried chicken, because I had seen it advertised a lot lately. The girl that took my order, while was not overly friendly, she was very professional and didn’t get upset with me taking so long to look over the menu, even though the line was building behind me, she never rushed me.
By the time I was done making my drink, my order was called. I was pleasantly surprised to see it served on a large glass salad plate. While the plate was a bit heavy for me, because I have arthritis and tendonitis in my hands, it was a little hard to carry the heavy tray, it was still nice to feel like they went that extra mile to make it nice and serve it on something other than a Styrofoam container.
The salad was very good, I was very impressed. They also gave me 2 packages of salad dressing, which shocked me. One of my friends required more dressing and was told it would be .25 for more, which I thought was a bit much.
We were in the restaurant for at least 1 ½ to 2 hours and never once were we rushed to leave or made to feel like we shouldn’t be there. That was very nice to be able to relax and enjoy our visit without the peering eyes of those wanting to make room for others.
I enjoyed it very much, and most definitely will return. They let us move our tables together so we could all sit together and never complained, so we will be considering this as a spot for our future group luncheons. Good job 9 Mile Road Zaxby’s, we’re glad to have you in town. You impressed me.
