What's on the Zaxbys menu

Zaxbys is a Georgia-born chicken chain that builds almost everything around hand-breaded Chicken Fingerz, wings and a short list of sauces. The core order is a plate: fingers or wings, crinkle fries, a slice of Texas toast, coleslaw on the bigger plates and a cup of Zax Sauce. Around that sit a handful of sandwiches, four main-dish Zalads, fried appetizers it calls Zappetizers, and hand-spun shakes.

Portions run large, and the calorie counts reflect that, so it pays to look at the numbers before you order a full plate. This page lists official calories from the Zaxbys nutrition guide revised in November 2025, typical 2026 price ranges, and what is on the menu right now for fall 2026, including the permanent dry rubs added in February and the holiday sauce arriving in November.

Most full plates at Zaxbys land between 900 and 1,500 calories before a drink, so a plate can cover most of a day's energy on its own. The grilled Zalads and the five-piece wings or fingers ordered alone are the best routes to a high-protein meal under about 700 calories. Picking a dry rub over a creamy sauce can save 100 calories or more.

Zaxbys allergen notes

Zaxbys posts a nutrition and allergen guide on zaxbys.com, revised in November 2025, that flags milk, egg, wheat, soy and other allergens item by item. Food is prepared on shared equipment with all nine major allergens, including shellfish, and fried items use highly refined soybean oil, so cross-contact is possible. If you have an allergy, talk with staff and your doctor before ordering.

Tips for ordering at Zaxbys

  1. Ask for a dry rub instead of a creamy sauce on wings or fingers; the rubs run 40 to 70 calories, while some creamy sauces top 150 per cup.
  2. Extra sauce cups usually cost extra, so pick your favorite sauce up front instead of adding cups later.
  3. If you are feeding a group, compare the price of a Zax Packz family pack with separate plates in the app before you order.
  4. Grilled chicken is available on the Zalads and the grilled sandwich if you want the protein without the breading.
  5. Order in the app to check your local store's prices before you leave, since franchise prices vary a lot.
  6. Swap the meal's fountain drink for unsweet tea if you are watching sugar; sweet tea adds 270 calories even in a small.

Zaxbys menu questions

Does Zaxbys serve breakfast?

No, Zaxbys does not serve breakfast at its standard locations. Most restaurants open around 10:30 a.m. and start with the regular lunch menu of fingers, wings, sandwiches and Zalads. Some stores have tested later late-night hours, but morning service is not part of the 2026 menu.

What are the Zaxbys dry rubs?

Zaxbys has three permanent dry rubs in 2026: Lemon Pepper, Garlic Parmesan and Nashville Hot. They were added as permanent options in February 2026 and can be put on wings and Chicken Fingerz. They add only 40 to 70 calories, far less than most creamy dipping sauces.

How many calories are in Zax Sauce?

One dip cup of Zax Sauce has 150 calories, according to the Zaxbys nutrition guide revised in November 2025. The spicy version has 170 calories per cup. Most meals include one cup, so ordering extra sauce can add a few hundred calories to a plate that already tops 1,000.

What is the healthiest thing to order at Zaxbys?

The grilled Zalads are the strongest picks: the grilled House Zalad has 560 calories and 48 grams of protein before dressing. Five traditional wings with a dry rub come in near 420 calories. Choose a light vinaigrette and skip the Texas toast to trim more.
