I have been coming here for years but always through the drive through. Today I got the Big Jax Snack and an Egg Roll. The food was excellent. Today the service was a little slow as several high school students were there. I always have fast accurate service through the drive through from professional friendly staff. I enjoy the new egg rolls as a tasty treat. I hope you will try this restaurant.

I had placed a mobile order on my way to work and got a flat tire on the way to pick it up. I called as soon as I could but they had already made it, however they offered to remake it when i get there despite the inconvenience it caused. So I greatly appreciate the kindness and genuineness, despite my flat tire being the issue. So thank you

I used to be a very frequent customer at Zaxby’s, but over time I had several disappointing experiences at the Holly Springs location that ultimately made me stop going altogether. The issues added up enough that I decided to take my business elsewhere for a while..... Recently though, I stopped by on a craving, and I was genuinely surprised.... in the best way. From the moment I walked in, there was a noticeable shift in energy. The atmosphere felt more welcoming, the staff was upbeat and attentive, and the entire experience felt different from what I had dealt with in the past. The team handled my order smoothly and professionally, and the service was excellent. Most importantly, the food was fantastic fresh, hot, and exactly how Zaxby’s should be. 10 out of 10. Because of this experience, I’ll definitely be returning to this specific location. Feeling welcomed and valued as a customer makes a huge difference, and this visit restored my confidence in this franchise. Huge credit to the team and management for turning things around.
