Chicken = delicious and juicy. I had their salad though. Heaping pile of iceberg and some greens on a large platter, with perfect chicken (grilled or fried, I chose grilled). Fried pickles = good. Even though I'm not a fan of the dry cornmeal batter. Yep, I'd suffer living in the South Service = friendly at the counter Prices = moderate. read more

My kids really love Zaxby's and Zax sauce, and when they do it right it is really good. The bread and fries are good too. But the experience of ordering has gotten utterly ridiculous. This past Tuesday we ordered an original recipe zax pack and another order of 5 lemon pepper chicken strips, since one pack is not quite enough for our family. Because they sometimes take SOOOOOOOO LONG to make the food, I ordered it approximately 30 minutes ahead of time, for my spouse to pick up. Unlike most other operations, there was no email or text confirmation of my order. Just what I could see in the app. Around the time the spouse was supposed to be picking up the order, I get a frantic call that they don't have the order. I had already paid, and since I get notifications any time my credit card is used I had an email showing the exact charge, matching the order in the app. Turns out someone else took the order. Some random person walked in, grabbed our bag, and walked out. You would think the manager would be able to see the order in their computer, since we gave them the time, the order, and the charge. Nope. In fact the manager would not even remake the order unless we could provide the order number. Now remember, we have no email or text message with the order and order number. I had to hunt it down in the app. It's in very tiny, dim text and is hard to see. I finally found it, and sent it to my spouse to show the manager. Once the manager had the order number, they made the order, and what should have been a quick pick-up turned into an ugly, time-consuming ordeal. Not only that, they made the order wrong, and the 5 lemon pepper chicken strips were original recipe. The year is 2026, and yet this company operates like they barely know what they are doing. Allowing randoms to steal other peoples' food, and then giving the legitimate customers the 3rd degree, leaves a really bad taste in my mouth. There is too much competition in the chicken finger space for terrible customer service. read more

I usually get this Zaxbys location this time I got my meal with fries and the fries were frozen and soggy very disappointed read more

Zaxbys - Horrible got my drink with no straw and opened it and this was the cup - Fast Food Near Me - Pensacola, Florida

Slow. So slow. If you have about thirty minutes to kill, go for it. You're better off driving across town and getting anything else.

I ordered the new Chicken Bacon Ranch quesadilla and peach milkshake yesterday afternoon. I had seen the advertisements on TV and admit I feel victim to the marketing tactics. But I was very disappointed, unfortunately. The quesadilla was falling apart: the tortillas or whatever outer shell is used were overcooked and rubbery, the chicken was tough and falling out and the cheese was overcooked but not melted, suggesting very processed, fake cheese. I could barely eat 1 of the 3 sections and threw the rest away. The peach milkshake was equally as disappointing. From the moment I picked it up and out in my car I questioned the quality because there was an orange colored ring around the top of the cup near the whipped cream, suggesting that the peach flavoring had not been thoroughly mixed in with the ice cream. Upon taking a sip, it was obvious that the peach flavor and the vanilla ice cream flavor had not been mixed together thoroughly before giving it to me. It took a while for the ice cream to melt enough for me to thoroughly stir the two flavors together, but overall the flavor was completely artificial and never at any point palpable. I haven't been to Zaxby's in a while, but the commercial for the quesadillas really hooked me in and I was very much looking forward to them. I hadn't decided on the peach milkshake until I got there and saw them sign outside for it, but it looked delicious. I am extremely disappointed in both and I would not recommend ordering either of them!! read more

Horrible horrible experience there is nothing but high school students who work there; nothing is wrong with high school students working at zaxbys .I am happy they are working however, they do not care what they give you !!!! I order my food and ask that the food be hot meaning I wanted my food drop fresh . After like 5 min the cashier handed me my food good thing I checked the chicken tenders was reheated the fries and chicken was cold . Here's a thought if you going to have a job do your job . This is not the time to play and laugh I asked for my money back I'm not paying you to play. If i am paying 15 dollars then i should get what I asked for . Zaxbys you really need to do better read more

Walked in to pick up my order and the lady at the counter said I'd have to wait she had people behind me that needed to order. Where is the customer service anymore. read more

I love a good zaxbys but this location does not hit. The customer service is not good, and the food was a lot less than other locations. They shorted us a piece of toast on our big Zac snack and when we asked for it she said they don't come with it (I come to zaxbys fairly often and know they do). We had to pay for another slice if we wanted it even though it comes with the meal. I even pulled it up on the website. read more

went through the drive thru today. THE WORST customer service ever! super rude forgot many things i ordered and when i went back in the get it fixed they were yelling and trying to tell ME that IM wrong? never going to creighton location again! read more

Food was cold, fries were soggy, and even though I noted and requested seasoning on the side and dipping sauce there was nothing included in the order. I do NOT recommend ordering online. They cannot seem to read requests or package an order. read more

Don't bother spending your money at this location. Staff will get your order incorrect or will give you food that is completely dry and charge you for condiments that you will not recieve. Ordered 3 kickin chicken sandwich meals, got home to find that the chicken was definitely not kickin. It was extremely dry...i called the manager at the location and was given the option to return the same night with the food or to bring the food the following day in order to replace. I do not live near the location so driving back the same night or following day was not an option. Highly disappointed in outcome read more

Went in on a Sunday to grab food, and while I know it is going to be busy I went in with that understanding. I ordered the nibblerz meal through the app with 4 shrimp and it stated it would be about 15 minutes. I grabbed my drink, and watched as more people came in, each ordering their own food. There were about 8 people who ordered after me, anywhere from 5 minutes after to almost 15 minutes after who each received their food before i did. I went to the register to inquire and the person at the register just shrugged her shoulders and stated that it is what it is and mad as if she wasn't going to ask. I had to ask a second time to check on the food to be told they were just then working on it. I could understand if one or two had gotten their food before me, but when 8 people who all ordered more food than I did got their food and left, it became unacceptable. When I was about to ask for a refund, they finally brought my food out. I won't return to this Zaxby's on Creighton at all and would rather take my chances with the once on Nine Mile instead and hope whoever is in charge can go check on their store since they need someone there to light a fire under the back of house. read more

Stopped in early afternoon. First time visitor to Zaxby's. They are fairly new in Texas but as a Cain's loyalist, I was eager to see how they compared so we tried this longtime location in Pensacola before visiting one closer to home. Sadly we were underwhelmed. The chicken was overly salty and the breading had become mushy from too much heat lamp time. The fries were lukewarm at best. The slaw was crisp and sweet but the toast was just average. I'd probably give Zaxby's another go if convenient when I'm craving fast food chicken fingers but they certainly weren't at their best in this instance read more

Zaxbys - Fast Food Near Me - Pensacola, Florida

This location closes whenever they want to regardless of the times posted on the internet. None of the other Pensacola Zaxby's locations do this. Either get new management or close the Creighton road location. Foosacklys or even KFC would thrive in this location. Apparently the Creighton road Zaxby's is owned by different franchisees. There are plenty of other options available in Pensacola. Do yourself a favor and AVOID this one. read more

Update: After 4 months I decided to give them another try, just in case. I ordered on the app. I went to the restaurant. They said they weren't able to process orders. They didn't give me any alternative, just turned me away. I told them I already paid and asked if there was a way to cancel the order. They said no. So I left and I submitted feedback through the app. Instead of going to Zaxbys corporate (as it probably should have), it went to this local restaurant. I got an immediate call saying that the order had been cancelled and the pending charge on my card would expire and not go through, and that I would not be charged. This was a lie. The charge went through, and I was charged for food they refused to give me. It's not worth the effort to challenge the charge with my credit card company, but needless to say, I will never ever give them another change. When you take my money and refuse to provide anything at all in return and refuse to refund the money, that's a new low. Original review: This place has really gone downhill. It used to be that they got my order right every time, then they started getting it wrong some of the time, now they get it wrong every single time. The fact that they have still not opened up inside and everything goes through the drive-through makes it even more difficult to get my order corrected. They started out pretty fast then they got kind of slow, and now because they haven't opened up inside and everything goes through the drive-through, they are so slow they are slower than a sit down restaurant where a waitress takes your order and then brings you your food. The quality of the food once they have corrected your order and you finally get it is still pretty good, but it's just not worth the time and the frustration to go here ever again. read more

Went to Zaxby's at 6:45 and ordered a 5 finger plate with no coleslaw and extra fries. Got our food 30 minutes later at 7:14 with coleslaw and no extra fries. I've worked at Zaxby's before and this should not happen. read more

TRASH service was horrible on aug7th at 9pm... I called and asked if I could order 3 chicken tenders 20pc... I get here and they said "we only have 20"... 20 In the whole store?!? If you're lazy just say that go get another job ma'am. read more

We sat in the drive thru with no one in front of us for ten minutes waiting to give our order when I walked in to the store to see what was going on. All of the employees were just standing behind the counter joking around saying they were waiting on food to be made. That has nothing to do with greeting your customers and taking their order. After we ordered and payed, we were told we had to wait for our food to finish preparation which is ridiculous because there was literally no one at the restaurant. After ten minutes of waiting I went inside to find my food on the counter and cold. The employees said "oh yeah sorry that ten minute wait must've been long". So out of spite for asking if they were taking orders they just had me sit there and let my food get cold. Horrible service read more

Ordered 20 piece Chix fingers and couple salads to share. With the chicken, I asked for 2 flavors of dipping sauce. Much to my disappointment unpacking the food at home... there were only "2" small dipping sauces to accommodate the 20 piece fingers !! Disappointed and did not think I needed to "say" enough sauce for a 20 piece-sharing !!! read more

Absolutely terrible service! I was told "I will be with you in just a moment." Ok, so I waited. After several minutes of waiting, I hear her begin to talk. She is talking to a coworker about an active shooter, hit and run, cussing, and then stated how she wished I would drive off. I said hello to see if I could go ahead and order, and was told again she'd be right with me. I waited a few more minutes and was over sitting there with no service. As I drove around I noticed there was no car even sitting at the window. Absolutely terrible service and I will not return. read more

If I could put zero stars I would we have been to the Zaxby's a few times and every single time we don't get all of our condiments and we just came to the drive-through and I literally just saw the employee drop the ice scoop on the floor and throw it right back into the been. ATTITUDE IS A SERIOUS ISSUE. read more

Stayed in Pensacola for the night while driving to sw Florida decided to give this place a try because the drive thru line was long , we figured it had to be good ..the wait was really long and by the time we got to order they had run out of traditional wings so we opted for boneless. The manager who helped us was great but the food was not all what we thought it'd be . read more

The Zaxby's did not have a very clean environment, our service was not good, and our food didn't seen as good and it was cold. So not the place to go to! read more

Too bad I got a plate of the tiniest chicken fingers ever! Not only did the manager say they couldn't do anything about it, I got half the sauces I asked for. The Nine Mile and Pine Forest locations are great, don't waste your time with this one! read more

1st time eating here. It was good, but in my opinion, not as good as Raising Cane's nor Chick-fil-A. Although Zaxby's wasn't bad, I don't think I'll be returning. The food was just okay, and the service was nothing to write home about. However, the dining area was clean, and they have a fancy drink machine with many flavor combinations to choose from, and good ice (pellets - the kind you get at Sonic). read more

This Zaxby's location has always been my favorate, but my last two visits have been bad. Our orders have been wrong both times. The first time we just ate. Yesterday we returned the order. The staff fixed the one order but the other 2 were returned cold. The staff acted like they did not care. So my weekly visits are stopped. Will find somewhere else to eat. read more

This Zaxby's used to have decent service, now they are horrible. We went recently,against our better judgement, paid, and were promptly told to park. They said someone would brings us our food. We watched as two other cars got their food and left. When we got our food, 15 minutes later, it was ice cold. We will not be returning. read more

Don't ever go to this branch. Drive the extra few miles and go to the other one in town if you have to have zaxbys. Go somewhere else if it's just wings you want. 30 mins in drive thru line and then I get an attitude from the manager and staff when I went to ask about my order. Once I did get it I was missing a whole meal! Then my meal was all wilted and soggy from sitting there too long! Awful awful service! My own opinion. Don't delete post read more

The manager on duty accused me of lying about my missing in order when I came back in the drive Thur to tell them I was missing two items took my bag with food in it went Thur it saw it was missing and still told me I was lying didnt get my missing items kids didn't eat because of that. Poor customer service and rude is that how zaxbys train their employees to treat paying customers??? read more

If you have the choice to go to another location go. This location is unprofessional & rude. I go thru drive thru & they hand me the wrong food get home & open my kids meal for my daughter no chicken in the box at all. I call to speak to a manager they place me on hold & says their busy. Completely unprofessional. I'm highly disappointed. read more

I love Zaxby's! The first time I tried them was when I was in North Carolina and it was delicious. This is a southern chain so when I moved to Pensacola I was happy to see that there was one here. I always get the chicken tenders. It comes with French fries and a big ole thick buttery piece of toast, yum! I have also tried the grilled chicken sandwich, very good. You can't go wrong with anything that you order here! read more

Pretty good chicken tenders. The hot sauce is hot- no lie! My honey, who loves spicy (like x19) said it was hot, the group I was with all looked in disbelief! The fries are pretty tasty, I had a side salad that was fresh and tasted good too. I think it's probably our go to for fast food chicken now... read more

Its another fast food chicken restaurant. It has its own distinct flavor. Chicken is delicious. I has fried potato chips which you dont see in other chicken places. The staff was courtious and friendly. The service was quick. I had a good 1st experience in Zaxby's, and would eat here again. read more

WOW...Went thru the drive thru last night. Not only were the tenders cold they were hard and dry. BUT I FIGURED OUT WHY. The tenders are SOOOO small if you cook them longer than 2 minutes they will be a dried up shoe string. These are the smallest tenders known to Sysco. I ordered the Large plate which is 7 tenders. When I got home, I opened the box and was greeted by a pile of fries the size of a small mountain and off to the side, packed into one forth of the container were 7 of the smallest tenders ever seen. I should have taken a pic. I thought some of the tenders had to be under the fries but nope all 7 of them could have fit inside a pack of cigs. I'm talking SMALLLLLLLLLL...Church's tenders and Guthries across the parking lot are half the price and twice the size...Oh well...I know where I'm going next time. read more
