Zaxby’s, known for its Famous Chicken Fingerz, Zax Sauce, and Zalads, is expanding its presence in the Las Vegas Valley with the opening of its second location. This new restaurant will begin serving customers on June 23 at 2210 E. Craig Road in North Las Vegas. The expansion is part of Zaxby’s broader strategy to grow beyond its traditional Southeastern U.S. base.
Royce Chow and Jie Zhou, who also manage the initial Blue Diamond Road location, are the owner-operators of this new outlet. Chow, CEO of Zax Nevada LLC, expressed enthusiasm for the new opening, highlighting the creation of over 50 job opportunities in North Las Vegas and the aim to provide the community with Southern comfort food and hospitality.
The grand opening event is scheduled for July 8, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., featuring giveaways and prizes. The first 100 customers will receive a comp card for free Zaxby’s for six months, valid for items such as the Big Zax Snak Meal, Zaxby’s Signature Sandwich, and Chicken Fingerz. Additionally, 10 percent of the grand opening day’s proceeds will be donated to Opportunity Village, a nonprofit supporting individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
The new Zaxby’s location, designed with a modern farmhouse aesthetic, covers 2,600 square feet and offers seating for 30 people. The interior design incorporates the chain’s signature colors and sauce-themed artwork. Customers can place orders in advance for curbside pickup via the Zaxby’s website or app.
Zaxby’s, founded in 1990 and headquartered in Atlanta, now operates over 950 locations across 17 states.
