A popular fried chicken chain recently opened its first location in New York City, and another opening is on the way.<\/p>\n
Atlanta-born chain Zaxbys recently expanded to New York City, bringing its Famous Fingerz, 12 signature sauces and expansive menu to the Bronx in late June. It also plans to open another location in Manhattan this summer. <\/p>\n
\u201cNew York is one of the most influential food cities in the world, and we\u2019re incredibly proud to introduce Zaxbys to this market,\u201d said Bernard Acoca, CEO of Zaxbys. <\/p>\n
\u201cOpening our first two restaurants in New York this summer marks an exciting milestone in our growth journey and a significant chapter in our expansion across the Northeast. Whether its Southern transplants looking for a taste of home or New Yorkers discovering our Chicken Fingerz and signature sauces for the first time, we\u2019re excited to share the Southern hospitality and bold flavor experiences that have made Zaxbys a fan favorite for more than 35 years,\u201d Acoca added.<\/p>\n
The chain opened its Bronx location on June 29 at 3260 Boston Rd. The approximately 2,000-square-foot restaurant features seating for 15 guests and offers both dine-in and drive-thru service. Guests can also skip the line by ordering ahead at Zaxbys.com or downloading the Zaxbys mobile app.<\/p>\n
Later this summer, Zaxbys will open a second restaurant in Manhattan\u2019s Upper East Side at 1267 First Ave. This over 2,800-square-foot restaurant will feature 16 dine-in seats, the brand\u2019s modern farmhouse-inspired design and convenient self-service ordering kiosks. <\/p>\n
More information on this location will be announced closer to its opening data, which hasn\u2019t yet been announced.<\/p>\n
Zaxbys opened its first location in 1990 in Statesboro, Georgia, and now has more than 1,000 locations across 24 states.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A popular fried chicken chain recently opened its first location in New York City, and another opening is…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":301580,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[39],"tags":[9,24,63,137,134,136,135],"class_list":["post-301579","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-staten-island","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-city","tag-nyc","tag-processedbyclaro","tag-staten-island","tag-staten-island-headlines","tag-staten-island-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/301579","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=301579"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/301579\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/301580"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=301579"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=301579"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=301579"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
