The Planning commission here approved a conditional use permit for Zaxby’s restaurant to go in the northwest quadrant at White Oak.
Zaxby’s will join Panera Bread and Red Robin as the three restaurants slated to go in that quadrant, which will be across Jones Sausage Road from Cabela’s and facing U.S. 70. Both Red Robin and Panera Bread have started construction.
The building will be over 3,800 square feet with 90 seats. It is the standard Zaxby’s size, said Keith Roberts, a site engineer for the Timmons Group, who requested the permit
Most of the concerns from planning commission members stemmed from the layout for parking. The design proposes the restaurant to have its own lot and drive-thru lane.
“It just seems jammed up to have parking outside the perimeter of the Zaxby’s site,” commission member Jeff Swain said during the site plan’s review.
Zaxby’s is a franchised chain of fast casual restaurants, known for its chicken. The first restaurant opened in 1990 in Georgia and made its way to North Carolina in 1998.
