With construction nearing a close, the first Zaxby’s location in Adel is coming soon to 911 W. Fourth St. A fan favorite for chicken fingers and wings, the new fast-casual restaurant is scheduled to open in March.
“We are very familiar with the area and believe that Adel is a perfect fit for the familyfriendly atmosphere that Zaxby’s represents,” said Mary Harrison, co-owner of the new location. “In addition to providing locals with a new dining option, we are excited to create more than 40 new jobs and look forward to establishing long-term partnerships with local organizations and schools.”
“We are humbled by the excitement surrounding this new Zaxby’s,” said co-licensee Mary Harrison regarding Georgia’s newest location with partners Ray Goff (former University of Georgia head football coach), Tom Coogle, Chad Copeland and Chase Daughtrey. “We've opened more than 12 Zaxby's over past 16 years, each with the goal of serving great food with great service. But even more than that, we see our restaurants as a place people are joined together by a sense of community. That's what we are hoping for this Adel location."
This will be the first Zaxby’s for Cook County. Zaxby’s currently operates in 17 states: Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, North Carolina, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Utah and Virginia.
Zaxby’s provides chicken fingers, wings, sandwiches, salads and more in a fun, relaxing atmosphere. Zaxby’s is a pioneer of the fast-casual format, providing services and amenities that fall somewhere between fast food and a sit-down restaurant. At the new restaurant, customers will place their orders at the counter and will have their prepared-at-order meals delivered to the table when they are ready.
With seating for 72, the new 3,200-square-foot location will reflect the Zaxby’s farmhouse design. Highlighting the brand’s commitment to its guests’ overall dining experience, the layout offers guests a high-end, fast-casual experience, with redesigned exteriors, dining areas and kitchens. Additionally, the variety of seating options accommodates different-sized groups, and Wi-FI makes for an enjoyable dining experience for all.
“We’re currently seeking a team of 40 members from the local Adel area,” said Harrison. “We are looking for people who feel just as passionately about the brand as we do.” Interested candidates could apply in person at the store February 6, 7 and 8 from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m.
An alternative to fast food, Zaxby’s offers prepared-to-order chicken fingers, wings, sandwiches and salads. Zaxby’s most popular items are its hand-breaded Chicken Fingerz and Traditional or Boneless Wings, smothered in a choice of nine sauces with names like Wimpy, Tongue Torch, Nuclear and Insane. The menu also offers innovative Zappetizers like Tater Chips, Spicy Fried Mushrooms and Fried White Cheddar Bites, as well as a variety of Party Platterz perfect for any family gathering or special occasion.
Adel Zaxby’s guests will enjoy the Coca-Cola Company’s proprietary drink fountain, Coca-Cola Freestyle. The sleek, stylish fountain is touchscreen operated, enabling guests to select from more than 100 regular and low-calorie brands — including many varieties of waters, sports drinks, lemonades and sparkling beverages that were not available in the U.S. prior to the arrival of CocaCola Freestyle.
Zaxby’s also offers four salads, or Zalads The House, The Blue, The Caesar and its newest addition, The Cobb. All of Zaxby’s Zalads are prepared with chicken, three kinds of lettuce, interesting ingredients — such as French-fried onions — fresh veggies and juicy tomatoes, and are larger than most salads served elsewhere. Zalads are assembled at the time the order is placed, versus being pre-made and stored in a cooler.
Additionally, Zaxby’s offers a line of premium milkshakes, including the Birthday Cake, the Banana Pudding and the Chocolate Cookie. They are rich and creamy, hand-blended, and are topped with whipped cream.
