Zaxby's
Reviews and Complaints

Firstly I'd like to start by saying that in the year and a half that I had worked at Zaxby's never have I ever seen such an unprofessional general manager. I have worked in restaurants and managed restaurants all over New York and a handful in Florida. I have never felt like I could not go to my manager with a problem that needed to be addressed other than this one. I felt like everytime it was my fault and I was in the wrong by even speaking up in cleanliness as well as sexual harassment. During the time a certain employee worked there, not only did he sexually harass me but he sexually harassed multiple other women that worked there. It wasn't always just verbal either. He had physically grabbed another female coworkers breast after doing it on many occasions. Finally something came of it and not only did the females name get dragged into the conversation but she was then texted constantly by the male that had gotten fired and he harassed her constantly until he was blocked. I was also harassed by the male because I had spoken up and told him he was wrong and he had finally gotten into trouble from it. Secondly, never have I ever worked for such a sexist boss as well. Ive worked in a bunch of kitchens and always made the same as the guys because I was doing the same work and busting my butt to please customers and ensure that they were satisfied. I would be scheduled 30 something hours while the guys that had just gotten hired on were scheduled more than 40! Not to mention he would over schedule all the females up front so it was a constant struggle for anyone to be able to stay and get hours when the guys in the back of the house were scheduled and never had to go home early. I had to start working up front at one point and not in the kitchen because I was pregnant and couldn't do the bending and lifting anymore. I was then referred to as "useless" and "it wasn't his fault that I got pregnant". I'm sorry but I worked just as hard up front being the face of zaxbys and satisfying the customers even though I wasn't doing the physical labor anymore. I was told on multiple occasions well you have the most out of all the females so you can go home early then you've at least reached 30 hours. I have a family to feed and depend on those hours to pay my bills and ensure food for my children because that is my number one priority. It was always a joke when I would put my foot down and say no why don't one of you guys go instead of me?! I'd say "well you don't have a problem paying your bills do you?" And at one point the assistant manager had said to me, " no I don't because after the other assistant manager left I got a hefty raise and I bring home about double what you make!" He said this with a smirk on his face and this was just absolutely crushing to me, like yes I do understand that he made more because he did do more physical labor than I did but I was pregnant at the time and could not lift the heavy items, but that was beside the point, it was the fact that yet again I was put down by yet another male in the restaurant. I know this is pretty lengthy but this has gone on since day one of me working there and I was always afraid to stick up for myself and say something. I felt like my job was in jeopardy if I did say something because in Florida we are "at will" employees and he would use any excuse to get rid of me and it wasn't worth it knowing I had a family to feed and bills to pay and was at least getting 10.50 which is better than most jobs start you out making in the Port Charlotte area. So towards the end of me working there because I had to leave to have my child, I kept on getting my hours cut and cut and cut because I was "useless and couldn't work in the back". So getting my 30 hours was a struggle. On my last day one of my fellow co workers who is also a very good friend of mine was called into the lobby to sit down with the GM where he not only ripped her apart for looking at getting a second job to feed her newborn and support herself, but also ripped me apart saying how toxic I was and it will be for the better that I am as far away from her as possible. I'm sorry but I never called off, I rarely asked for a day off and that was only if I had a drs appointment or a WIC appointment that was in the middle of the day. I ALWAYS came into my shifts, even when my morning sickness was at its peak. I would run from the drivethru area to the bathroom to get sick, and get right back to taking orders. I was FAR from useless, I kept the customers coming back! I even had multiple customers whom I don't even know outside of Zaxbys bring me in gift cards, Christmas cards, sometimes money for the baby when it was her birthday, or when they knew I was struggling for hours, or clothes for my new child before she's born. They appreciated me and how genuine I was no matter what kind of day I was having or how terrible I was feeling. I always had a smile on my face greeting customers and made sure they left with a smile. With all this being said I really do hope something comes of this because on my last day people begged me not to go because it wasn't going to be the same without me there. Not only was it customers but employees as well. Thank you for taking the time out of your day to read this, please help my fellow co workers as they should not suffer from such an unprofessional manager who slides by every time.

The Zaxby's store at 925 Camp Fulton Way Atlanta, GA 30336, check number 2298 ordered food through the drive through and the food provided was burnt. See the attached picture. The sales person said everything was cooked fresh and is edible. The food that was burnt was packaged at the bottom of the bag so it will not be noticed until i arrived home to give people their food.

Today I went into the Zaxby's right around the corner from my job as I do once a week at least. I normally order 3 or 4 different meals and get a water. I have never once been charged for WATER. Today I was told that my 32oz water was $2.09 and I was immediately thrown off because I had never been charged for water no matter the size. I understand maybe charging me for the cup, but not the same exact price as a 32oz drink. My co-workers were also baffled by this whole ordeal. I am truly upset and it not the $2.09 charge...It's I HAVE NEVER BEEN charged for water. I am guessing that I may need to take my business elsewhere because no others charge that for cup of water. I know those cups cost pennies, because Win Cup used to be one of my accounts that I serviced...definitely not $2.09.

I work at zaxbys its disgusting I'm surprized its still open
I dropped food on the floor and they made me pick it up and serve it anyway
They dont wash thier hands after using the bathroom
They wash the dishes in the same dirty water for every thing even the chicken containers, .can u say salmanilla
The employees are rude and lazy
Theres cockroaches crawling everywhere
And none of the equipment works properly and they leave. Dirty rag a everywhere

I'm appauled at the conditions and how they pass inspection

I ordered 23+ dollars worth of food with my family
as I was eating, I realized I was chewing on something
hard. I pulled it out of my mouth, it was a had piece of plastic,
Informed the cashier - they stated it was a piece of the packaging
and refunded me the 8+ dollars for the salad it was in.
The manager or no one came up to ask or anything and I felt
the full amount should have been refunded or something different offered
It messed up my lunch and I left out still hunger.
Thank you

Tonight I went to restaurant 07-26-18, as I pulled up a male employee approached my car so I let down my window and I was told the car ahead of me was the last order they were taking. I told him I thought they closed at 10:30 and it was only 10:03. The employee told me the DM said they were closing early because they were running out of ingredients, they did not even have ingredients to make salads. If this is true it is super poor planning.

My name is Hailey Sheridan, and I am a (former) employee of Zaxbys in Palatka fl as of today, July 26, 2018. I have been an employee at this zaxbys for almost 2 years. For the past couple of weeks I have had some health issues. As this is going on, I have had several coworkers discussing my personal health issues among each other while im there and especially while im not. I have went to 6 different managers and stressed to them about how unprofessional this is and how I do not appreciate them talking about my personal issues. My General Manager, Brett Jones, specifically told me " its not fair, and he will handle it". I thought I could come to work, in a professional enviorment but I was wrong. Once again, today, it turns out that Again, my ex-coworkers are discussing my health, and calling it as an "excuse" to not work. I would love to come to a job and not have to worry about my private issues being discussed among my coworkers, in front of my managers and absolutely nothing being done about it. As a result, I quit. I really did not want to but I felt forced into this decision and I also felt as if I was being bullied. As I said, I stressed my concern to almost every manager, and nothing has been done as it still continues to happen. I think that the employees as well as the managers at this zaxbys is very unprofessional and needs to be seriously dealt with. Some of the names (that I know of so far) whom has been apart of this harassment is: Tim, Jocelyn, Heidi, and probably several others. The names of the managers whom I've stressed concern to is : Brett, Micheal, Cassidy, Andres, Marissa, and Dustin. My Email is : hsheridan.[protected]@gmail.com

Usually Zaxbys is a very fast and easy place to get food, tonight that experience was not that. The line too almost 30 min to get food and when we finally got up to the window we had to wait another 5 min for our food. Food takes time to make but your employees should not be dancing, hooping, and yelling around in the front of the house. No manager seemed to be around and I was very dissapointed in the Dawsonville GA Zaxbys.

My husband & i had the chicken finger platter & fries were cold so i told them & they made us give the fries back so after a few minutes they brought us hot fries to our table but they were brown & obviously the same fries we complained about but refried! It was disgusting & i cant believe they did that! They were brown & greasy! I would like for this to be addressed!

Talking through speakers can really be irritating on both size. Neither can under stand and I feel because they do not understand, you the customer is penalize.
I Ordered a 10 piece traditional wings. The gave me 15 of all over cook, probably twice over cook. French frys over over cook. I live 10 miles from Zaxbys. I general go by Zaxbys 2 or 3 times a week this is the 3rd time I am unsatisfied. the 1st time I took the food back because it did not have ny dressing for my salad nor Dipping sauce for my chicken.

I began working at the Zaxby's in Tucker, GA about two months ago. I received praise from management regarding my after hours clean up procedures on several occasions. I picked up extra shifts on my days off to assist with scheduling. However I was constantly harassed by the General Manager Eddy Bradshaw, who from my understanding is a registered sex offender. From the beginning he was always approaching me asking why I don't speak to him. I am a minor and Eddy is a grown man, what do we need to discuss besides my job duties? He then began to demand I had an attitude because I did not speak to him. Truth be told, he made me feel uncomfortable. I was always on time to work and prepared to do my job. I never called out, nor did I have issues with anyone else in the store. I even looked the other way when my iPhone X was stolen by a co-worker from the ladies room. I say all this to say, as a teenager on my first job ever, I was hoping for a better experience. I planned on working there all the way through high school. It was my first taste of making my own money, budgeting a bank account, and the first bit of financial freedom. I am extremely disappointed in the way I was treated and I will be taking this further. #METOO

Am denise wilcox and i work at Zaxby's in Chamblee tucker and am a very good worker. But am 32 and just lost everything but i been haveing problems with mr dave.

They wrongfully accused me of stuff I didn't say and fired me for no reason at all.The mangers there show favorites to people they like most and treat others like crap the mangers I'm referring to is the general manager and the assistant managers I feel like I have to take it to court for a wrongfull termination.I will be very glad to hear back from you as soon as possible to settle it without court and lawyers

I heard a manager tell an employee she was going to decapitate him if he did something else wrong again. This seemed scary to me as I have never heard a person in authority say this. The employee was only 16 years of age so this must have been fearful for him. Coming from his manager. The managers name was Erin. This was at zaxbys off of coming high way.

I came to the Zaxby's on 2298 S. Irby st Florence, sc 29505, I ORDERED MY FOOD GOT My drinking cup, went to make my drink the drink machine went and shot all over my new shirt my bread on the nibblers wasn't even done. I called into the branch to let them know what was going on, all they can do is replace my meal. but the bad thing about that is for one im at work and can't leave, so i have to go all day without food. secondly i work in the front office at my job, so the way i look is a must. and now my shirt looks like i been cut or something, my shirt looks like bleeding from the red drink i attempted to get out the machine. yes they fixed the machine, but me a several of my co-works had to wait 20 min on the machine before we were able to get drink. I think this problem could've be resolved if the employers where doing their jobs. before you get the lunch crowd you should make sure the drink machine is fun and ready to go. most people like me don't have long brakes, so this is a set back for some of us.
THANKS

Less chicken less salad more $...11.00 for a salad? I used to be able to share my salad with my friend at work. Its getting to the point where I don't even want to purchase a salad... They are too expensive! You cant feed a family with the prices you charge... I used to love your establishment it has gone downhill by far... Cold wings, overpriced salads, where is the chicken? Better yet where is the customer service? I can go to zacadoo's and get a huge salad with much more extras for 7.00 and that is where I started to go. Very upsetting... You act as if your serving organic chicken when you are not...

keeping minors till 2.3.4 in the morning witch is around 5 hrs after the store closed to clean the kitchen.not letting them use there phone to check in with parents, not answering the store phone when parents call to check on there kids, im hopping this is not the practice of zaxbys and just a failure of manger in charge.sounds like to me you need a night porter of an adult age and maybe not the minors you are trying to get it done with.what happens when school starts, I sat there at the store with another parent till 2 in the morning when the kids were finally done coming out to the cars (3 of them)not one manager checked to make sure no one got mugged.now im writing this letter and its 3:40 am my child {17} is still not home, havent talked to her sense 12:00 am.not sure this job is for my child or any bodys child.i hope this is not the message you are trying to send.i will be putting this on social media to see the response of the public and/or the parents.i hope you get it fixed fast.

05/22/2018 arrived at ten minutes till 10.00 pm.there was a white charger ahead of me their order was taken at drive thru. I pulled up to place my order and the order menu board was still light up. I waited there and no one took my order after three minutes of waiting I pulled up in line and waited till car ahead of me left. I then let the person at window know how long I waited to place my order and how while we my girlfriend called inside from her cell phone and the person she talked to was not listening to her because the manager, makesha, told her to just hang up the phone. She went on to tell me they were closed. I explained to her that if the lights had been off and it was exactly 10.00pm.iwould have understood but like I said it was as if they were waiting for 10.00 pm and were intentionally trying not to take my order. The manager was rude and not caring about the customer being satisfied at all.ZAXBY'S is one of my favorite restaurants and this experience has left me upset! we left as I said upset. I would love a free meal on ZAXBY'S as a form of resolution. if corporate would like to reach me my email address is [protected]@yahoo.com

My wife and I visited the Zaxby's located at 2035 N. 109th St Kansas City, Kansas 66109 this evening and were very disappointed in the customer service there. To be fair I have visited this location which is close to my home several times since they opened and was always impressed with the service, food and politeness of the staff. But this evening was just the opposite of what we have experienced in the past.
When we walked in there were very few customers seated and only two cars in the drive thru when we entered the restaurant. We entered this establishment at around 9 p.m. this evening May, 8th, 2018.
No one was at the counter to take order. One woman, a young plump black woman who looked at us repeatedly and never notified anyone that there were customers up front was filling orders at the drive thru window.
There was a young black man who seemed to be a cook that looked up front several times and saw us standing there waiting to place an order and he never summoned anyone to the front counter either.
After several minutes two young men walked in and after a couple of minutes asked us if anyone had taken our order and how long had we been waiting?
After what seemed like around 5 minutes had passed I leaned over the counter and asked in a loud voice, "Is there anyone to take our order up front here?"
After a minute an older white woman wearing her hair up and chewing gum with her mouth open finally came to the front counter with a disgusted look on her face as if I had interrupted her break and asked if she could take our order?
Already disappointed with the service I told her, ' No thanks, I'll take our business elsewhere', and left.
If interested you can check your surveillance cameras to verify my complaint. As I said, my wife and I entered at about 9 p.m. and I am wearing beige shorts, sandals and a blue t-shirt and beige baseball cap.
I'm not sure why we experienced such a drastic change in service at this location this evening. Maybe it was because of the staff or poor management, I don't know. What I do know is is that I won't be visiting this Zaxby's again anytime soon and I'll be telling my coworkers, friends and family members to spend their hard earned money some where's else.
