Zaxby’s has grown to more than 900 locations since its first restaurant in Statesboro, Georgia. There are almost 50 locations in Florida, which means I was bound to run into a Zaxby’s while I was crisscrossing the state.
While on a road trip to St. Augustine, I first tasted Zaxby’s. Over the years, I’ve eaten in and driven through some of their locations in Fort Myers, Orlando, and Tampa.
Although what I ordered has slightly changed, their Chicken Fingerz are always part of the meal. They’re hand-breaded, unlike the boneless wings, which are not.
The wings are crispy if you get them sauceless. It’s hard to do this because Zaxby’s sauce game is strong.
Check out the sauce lineup: Zax, Spicy Zax, Ranch, Honey Mustard, Marinara, Wimpy, Tongue Torch, Nuclear, Insane, Original, Hot Honey Mustard, Sweet & Spicy, Teriyaki, and BBQ.
The cheddar bites or the spicy fried mushrooms make great starters. There’s enough to share, but it’s not so large that you can’t enjoy it solo.
Remember to order fries with seasoned salt. In case you didn’t realize it, the crinkle-cut fry era is here!
Zaxby’s recently revamped its chicken sandwiches, which is perfect timing. I’ll be in Lakeland for a few days, and they’ve been added to my fast-food lunch agenda.
