    Compliments to our local Zaxby's. The food is, well, the food. Pretty much what you'd expect for an outlet of this fast food chain. The food is hot and tasty. What struck me on this visit is the level of service. It took the order taker only about 5 minutes to move thru the line of 5 people in front of me. She was smiling, engaging and made me feel like she appreciated me being here. A customer who was served prior to me came up to the counter with a sandwich which was dressed with the wrong sauce. No questions asked, the customer was told "I'm sorry for our mistake. Please keep the incorrect sandwich and we'll make up a fresh one". And then the cashier asked the kitchen to re-make the sandwich next. She apologized AGAIN when delivering the fresh sandwich. THIS, friends, is how service should be. The dining area is spotlessly clean. Kudos for Zaxby's for staffing the dining room with a person to keep things clean. Lofty kudos to the retiree-aged staffer who clearly takes pride in keeping things gleaming... all while thanking every customer as he moved thru sweeping and wiping. There are at least 6 places locally that specialize in fried chicken. THANK YOU to Zaxby's for showing everyone else how it's DONE!

    Not very appealing

    My husband picked up takeout tonight and said that there was about 10 workers just hanging out, not a great look. Then he came home with this. Supposed to be teriyaki boneless. Missing sauce and breading on multiple pieces. Several pieces were also completely gross inedible, pure gristle. Not the quality we typically would expect from Zaxby's.

    Big Zax Snack meal

    Good food served fast. The salads are delicious, the Big Zax snack meals are a good value. $5 for three strips, fries, Texas toast and a drink. Restaurant was spotless, employees were both very friendly. Quiet atmosphere, yummy food served hot, the cool drink machine with tons of options. Lots of sauces to pick from - zax sauce is good and the teriyaki sauce is great! Drive thru is fast as well. Overall, a solid option if your hankering for chicken strips or a good salad with lots of nice additions (tomatoes, hard boiled eggs, cheddar cheese).

    Zaxbys is a Southern favorite of mine! I ordered the Wings and Things. The wings were the hot honey mustard flavor. The food was fresh and customer service was great. Go here for the chicken tenders, they are juicy and big. And If you've never tried the Zaxbys sauce, your missing out!!

    Notice how dried out these are?

    Food is greasy, over sauced and orders are not correct. Behind the counter was cluttered and staff less than attentive.

    We live in North Raleigh but regularly do our shopping in Wake Forest because it's so convenient,…read moreand once we're there, everything is close by, including lunch. The two of us eat at Over the Falls regularly and always enjoy it. I'm honestly surprised I hadn't written a review before. Lunch for two came to $65.80 + tax and tip, and there was more than enough food. I ordered one of my two favorites: the Ahi Tuna Pita (the other favorite is the blue cheese burger). I paired it with a side salad and blue cheese dressing, plus an unsweetened iced tea with lemon. My wife ordered The Barrel, their Philly cheesesteak, with a side of sweet potato fries. We also shared an order of house-made potato skins. It was far too much food, in a good way, and we took plenty home. Service was outstanding and truly a team effort. One moment stood out: when my wife hesitated to ask for sour cream for the potato skins, our server immediately said, "It's just 15 steps, let me get it for you." That small gesture made a big difference. The rest of the team was equally warm, friendly, and attentive. The ambiance works perfectly for us, lively, busy, and welcoming without feeling chaotic. I would be confident ordering virtually anything from the menu. We'll keep coming back.

It was served well done. When asked "how is everything" by the bartender/server as he rushed by I replied "it's okay" and he didn't break stride before moving on to the next table. - a different server came by after awhile and asked if we needed to go boxes. I declined and said the beef was overcooked. The server walked away. - a third person came over and said "I heard you were not satisfied with your meal". I explained that it was not served as advertised. He then asked "what would you like me to do about this"? I find this an odd question - no apology for the beef being over cooked, no offer to comp the item, he never introduced himself. - I chose not to answer the question. He then came back with the bill and let us know that he comped the over cooked sandwich (which included one side on the menu) but "only charged you for the side" Yes, my review is overly detailed and may come across as whiny. However, our party of four honestly felt like the staff didn't care if we were there or not. They also forgot my dining companion's grilled chicken on her grilled chicken Caesar. I honestly hope they improve and become part of the neighborhood but our family will not return. Ps - I really like pickled onions and didn't see anything on the menu served with pickled onions.

    White Story Cafe - Side salad

    Vlad here with another downtown Wake Forest eatery review!…read more White Story Cafe is on the corner of South White & East Wait Streets, sharing a bright, airy space with The Burger Shop, a separate eatery I will review in coming weeks. (For those of you familiar with the area, another eatery called The Lemon Tree used to occupy this space.) Women-owned, White Story offers fresh takes on standard cafe items - paninis, sandwiches, salad, soups and a variety of breakfast options. (See menu pics for more details and pricing). In the very relaxing ambience with bright and cozy seating, we enjoyed excellent service from Apple, one of the owners. Paul and I both had the Morning Waffle Special: a tender tasty waffle with a deliciously crispy crust, topped with a fresh egg as you like it, crispy smoked bacon and fresh avocado slices - let's just say both our plates were clean! The sweet Thai tea was fresh and paired perfectly with our meals. The hours are varied, check the website (or menu pic) and prepare to enjoy light and refreshing fare in a welcoming space - leisurely catching up with friends over the fresh-baked treats and coffee or noshing with a current read. Y'all know me now - I like the smaller, intimate places off the beaten path yet close to everything - this place is a gem for you to try!

It's a fairly extensive menu for breakfast. Time from order to service about 10 minutes. Food is good! Tried chicken and waffle. It's a plate-sized waffle, freshly made, topped with breaded chicken. Chicken is tender but a little dry. Nothing that a nice helping of maple syrup didn't fix. Also tried the morning waffle special. This is a waffle, topped with an egg, bacon and avocado slices. Served piping hot, freshly cooked and a sizable portion. Always good to have more quality dining choices in town. I'll be back!
