We don't get Zaxby's often since they aren't in the North, so we opted for it on the way back home from Chattanooga TN. It was empty when we arrived. Employee filling the ice machine. Otherwise, quiet. We ordered the Bacon Chicken Ranch Loaded Fries, Husband had The Nibblerz platter and I had the Kickin' Chicken Sandwich with bun instead of Texas toast with fries and drink. Each got a side of the Zax Sauce. Gotta have the Zax Sauce. Everything was well prepared and good. I think I will will opt for The Nibblerz from now on since buffalo sauce isn't really my thing. Was still good, but the Nibblerz are preferable. Staff was friendly and the food was good fast food! read more

Food is cooked in burnt oil. $50 for inedible fried, cheese curds eggrolls and chicken. Whats worse is its not just cooked in burnt oil its cooked then been sitting out just long enough to get soggy. Very disappointing and honestly we should get a refund but then id just have to payore for the gas to travel back twice. Stay away from lexington ky location. read more

Zaxbys - Fast Food Near Me - Lexington, Kentucky

8:15 pm on Friday night and lights are off inside and the drive through board is completely dark. No response sitting at drive through. Employees inside and ignoring customers. Food is mid anyway but closure seems imminent with this level of service on Friday night. read more

Standard chain Zaxby's location. Quick service though, even when the drive through is full. The Fried Cobb Zalad is my go to. read more

went through the drive thru at 8:47 and was told they couldn't make us anything because they were already closing. I understand it can be annoying sometimes when people come through so close to close, but in all of my experience working at different fast food restaurants we were always open and able to serve people until close. super disappointing. read more

I keep getting BOGO deals for traditional wings, which is great; however, the sauces they put on their wings are limited to like eight sauces. It is getting old ordering wings from here. On another note, I love what they did with the parking lot. Now I know where to wait and where to go. Franchises that actually take pride in maintaining their property is a good place to give my business to. Thank you. read more

Zaxbys - Fresh tar and marking. LOVE IT! - Fast Food Near Me - Lexington, Kentucky

Excellent food - fantastic service and a very clean restaurant if you dine-in! Fast and courteous... and HOT food as well! read more

I love Zaxby's but....do NOT order the Mr. Beast Box. What a joke! The ad shows a box overflowing with chicken and trimmings while the order under the bread barely covers the bottom of the box. This is just false advertising for $12.00 don't waste your money. read more

Unfortunately I've eaten at better lzaxby's than on Richmond Rd. In Lexington. The chicken wings were terrible! So much waste that can't be eaten. I order wings at a lot of restaurants but I can honestly say these were the worst. They were dry, looked old, and were flavorless. I'm sorry but we ordered 10. So we had to buy 2 orders. Total waste of money. I won't ever order those again and I certainly won't go to Richmond Rd! I've had the fingers at other Zaxby's and they have been acceptable. Not great, but ok. They should make all of their food at the same standard. read more

Good food(damn good cheese curds), amazingly friendly workers, our car broke down and they let us chill for a couple hours while waiting for a ride since it was raining outside :) thanks you guys so much read more

Zaxbys - Fast Food Near Me - Lexington, Kentucky

I haven't been to this location in quite awhile, but the Manager that waited on me seemed genuinely caring and made sure that I received what I ordered. If she could wait on me every time I visited then I would become a regular for sure. Food was good! read more

When did Zaxby's stop serving celery with wings? One goes with the other. Food was cold when I got it home and I only live 5 minutes from the store. Also my meal came with coleslaw and I think I got about a teaspoons worth. I'm done with them. read more

I loved this place! I didn't grow up around Zaxby's, so when I was in Lexington it didn't taste like a typical fast food chicken it tasted like some super high quality meal - though it might be how Zaxby's always is. I came here about 10 times tried basically everything they had. The best option was to get the one where the sandwich is like sliced bread with mild sauce. Can't say a single bad thing about this place. read more

We ordered through Drive-thru. As we were ordering the staff yawned as bored to tears. We ordered 1-8 boneless wing meal, 1-Zaxby's Signature Chicken Sandwich mea1-Zaxby's Signature chicken sandwich only and extra 1-Zaxby's sauce and 1-Wimpy Sauce. Told by staff to pull up to wait on chicken sandwiches. After 15 minutes received meal & no fries for sandwich meal. Went around to window for fries & told by staff waiting on fries. Waited another 10 minutes. Got home and no extra sauces that we paid for. This store needs an adult manager on site. Pretty sad. They didn't even deserve one star. read more

I make it a point to eat only bone in fried chicken. I booke my own rule this time as they only had fried boneless. With the standard snack box with standard sauce it was delicious and I will visit again. The only thing i could complain about was the texas toast tasted like it was grilled using rancid oil. I actually called them later and asked thrm to check it out. I stopped a few days later In Shelbyville and it had the same rancid taste. Not bad enough for me to quit going, but its unusual tase made me downgrade to 4 stars. Great chicken filets, ok crinkle cut fries, but they need to switch up how they are grilling that bread! Yikes! read more

Moved south. Came to Zaxby's for fried chicken. Thinking about moving back north. Kidding about the moving. But this was bad. It took ten mins to get our food inside and there's barely anyone in here. I don't mind waiting but would think after that long you'd get hot, fresh food. Nah. Cold fries. Cold chicken. Very dry chicken. Nothing has any flavor. Disappointing but definitely won't be back. read more

NOTE: This review is just for the sweet cashier with the long braid and glasses. My husband and I stopped here on a whim to grab some lunch. We visited a Zaxby's once in Florida and I recalled finding something to eat there (popcorn shrimp or something). To my disappointment, all they serve here is chicken (I don't eat meat aside from fish on occasion) and salads (boring, typical fast food salads). Annoyed, and slightly cranky (hey, I was hungry!), I expressed my disappointment in the lack of food options. The cashier was sweet and kept offering different options, none of which appealed to me. My husband got lunch, but I didn't order anything. As we were walking away, she offered me a glass of water as a last resort, with an "I'm so sorry" look on her face. I took the water and thanked her for her sweet, patient service. Five stars for the cashier. (Meh stars for the Zaxby's itself.) read more

Love their chicken fingers and fries always get them on my way home! Can't go wrong with some sweet and spicy boneless wings either. They're usually spot on with their food read more

At least I got my food... no sauces even though you pay .25 for them you don't get them.... 3rd time this has happen. Definitely recommend just going to Chick-fil-A they at least give you the sauce and food. read more

Upon getting to the restaurant 15 minutes before closing, tbh I didn't realize it was that close to closing time... the girl after taking my order had another girl screaming through the intercom that they close shortly and they they could care less about my order. I'd suggest go my elsewhere. read more

Feeling this location pretty hard. The service is quick, the food is great, and the staff is usually pretty upbeat and cheery. I've yet to have a bad experience here. read more

Always quick service and yummy food! Today I had the four fingers plate, what a deal for $8. 4 chicken fingers, fries, texas toast, coleslaw and a drink. I love their coleslaw and when their fries are seasoned! Thanks for another yummy lunch! read more

This is the 3rd time me and my family have been to this zaxby's location. This is the 3rd time our orders have been erroneous. I just recently purchased 2 salads and a chicken meal And both salads had the wrong toppings on them. I had to go back to the location go inside for them to fix my order. When I got home this last time they forgot all salad dressings. This will be my last time, we now patronize the Leestown location. read more

I just purchased dinner. This is the third meal in a row where I'm very disappointed in the food. Feels like the quality at this place specifically is getting worse. Food is just not fresh and this happened to me 3 times. With two orders of the three having forgotten side sauces. Usually I'm not a yelper - unless I want the place to know they need to change some things up. Good luck zaxbys. Hope u raise the bar again like before. read more

My kids love the chicken finger kids meal and wife usually gets the house salad fried. I get the Kickin chicken sandwich meal. Food is always great and the drive thru staff lately has been really friendly. I usually get greeted and thanked by two people one of those being the manager thanking me and to have a nice day. read more

I first heard of Zaxby's duing a road trip from Ohio to Florida to last year and my travelling buddies raved about it. Unfortunately, the one we stopped at somewhere in South Carolina had a nasty bathroom so we were not about to eat anything from there. Cut to last weekend, I was invited on a quick trip to Lexington for a high school football game. I demanded my friend stop for Zaxby's before we headed back to Cincinnati. Being that it was my first time I ordered the chicken tenders and fries meal. Gotta say, I wasn't that impressed. It was pretty much the same as Raising Canes except their menu had a few more options like salads, buffalo tenders, and sandwiches. The food was good, don't get me wrong, but still not better than my all-time fave Chick-fil-A. read more

Zaxbys is good. Had a fried chicken salad and also a meal with strips and fries. Both were good and hot. They give a military discount.

Quick service and the meal was inexpensive for what you get. Chicken sandwich was good, coleslaw could have been just a little bigger in size. Good place if you are looking for something quick that is close to home. Drive thru staff was very friendly. read more

Zaxbys - Chicken sandwich with slaw. - Fast Food Near Me - Lexington, Kentucky

I go to this location more than any other. The service use to be great, but now not so much. Most of the drive thru employees rush you at the window, even when there's not a line. They don't even look at you or smile and greet you with an energetic impression. I ordered the big zax snack, my usual, but this time the sauce was missing. Maybe if they weren't so busy rushing through their guests they wouldn't forget to put a PAID for item in someone's bag. read more

I have heard A LOT about Zaxbys and I was a little curious to try it out! I enjoyed the atmosphere and the service. The people here were very nice and my food was done in a timely manner. The place was also clean and the bathrooms were too!!! ( I have a thing about bathrooms lol) I ordered a Blue-Blackened salad. It came with mixed greens, red cabbage, carrots, roma tomatoes, blue cheese crumbles, fried onions, and blackened chicken with Texas toast. I was very happy with my purchase and will most definitely be visiting again! read more

Zaxbys - Blackend Blue Chicken Salad - Fast Food Near Me - Lexington, Kentucky

Been to quite a few zaxbys. This one was the best in terms of customer service, food freshness. Walked in 10 minutes before in restaurant dining ended for a to go order, staff couldn't have more friendly. From nky, this one is now our go to location in Lexington. read more

This place isn't really easy to swing into, so I've put off stopping down here, but I'm glad I did! I was in the mood for a lighter dinner and the "Zalads" had been advertising on tv so we thought why not? I wasn't disappointed! I ordered the Cobb Zalad and it was delicious! Fresh, big, perfect amount of each of the ingredients, and the piece of Texas Toast that was served with it was warm and yummy. Tried the "Spicy Mushrooms" which were not spicy but more limp, oily mushrooms. I won't get those again but I will definitely fight the Richmond Road traffic to come back for the great salad!!! read more

This is probably my favorite fast food restaurant in town. The chicken is always great, and I love the seasoning on the fries! They have a new meal deal that is just $5.99 so it doesn't cost a fortune for my family to eat out and get full. Their salads are the best and a great price because they're HUGE too. I hate going to a cheap fast food place and realizing I'm hungry again an hour later. Never happens when I eat Zaxbys though! It takes a little bit longer for the food to come out than some fast food places but that's probably because they make it fresh? Whatever the reason it's worth it to me to wait a few more minutes for hot food that actually tastes good! read more

The food is still just a bit better than the other fast food around it. The wait will be long if you choose to stop in for lunch. The seating can be limited at lunch as well. The staff get frustrated during the rush & could be a bit friendlier. read more

We were driving through from out of state and stopped for a bite. It was beyond our expectations. Not only were the serving sizes reasonable, the prices were as well. The food was great. We'd come more often if we lived close. read more

Very friendly people and fast service. Dining room was clean but ketchup dispenser was broken. We love the every kind flavor coke machine- those are fun! read more

Food was delicious & good but i came through the drive thru not to long ago, I ordered the 4 finger plate asked for extra fries & I got cole slaw instead. Then I ordered a small drink it had a water cup lid on it, so it spilled all over the place when I grabbed the cup & tried to take a drink. read more

This is the Zaxby's my family stops at for dinner. We order the family pack for $24. You can't beat the food and price! Love my Zaxby's!

BAR NONE, the worst fast food ever! After giving them three tries over the course of 3 months, I get raw chicken, wait 45 minutes on a milkshake and NO CUSTOMER SERVICE! Really need to get people who at least are old enough to shave and can tell you BEFORE you wait 45 minutes that the machine was actually broken!!! NEVER AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!! read more

service was rude, sandwich was falling apart, the girl who took my order could care less about the customers
