Jacksonville, Fla. — A new dining concept is set to make its debut in Northwest Jacksonville with the opening of Florida’s first drive-thru only Zaxby’s on Monday. This unique fast-casual restaurant will be situated at 9031 New Kings Rd, offering a streamlined approach to grabbing a meal on the go.
Who is Behind the New Location?
The innovative restaurant is locally owned and operated by Aaron and Tihesha Mitchell, who both have deep roots in Jacksonville. Both owners are graduates of local high schools, Andrew Jackson and Williams M. Raines Sr. High, reflecting a strong community connection.
What to Expect on Opening Day
To celebrate the grand opening, Zaxby’s has announced a special promotion that is bound to attract attention. The first 100 guests who purchase a meal either through the drive-thru or at the walk-up window will receive FREE FOOD FOR A YEAR. This limited-time offer adds excitement to the new launch, inviting the community to come out and join the festivities.
When and Where to Participate

Why a Drive-Thru Only Model?
The decision to open a drive-thru only location aligns with modern consumer trends, catering to those who prioritize convenience in their dining choices. With busy lifestyles, many individuals and families look for quick meal solutions without the need to enter a traditional dining establishment. This format allows Zaxby’s to serve customers efficiently while maintaining quality service and food.
