Crinkle Fries (Regular)
Seasoned crinkle cuts. This is the exact portion bundled into every meal on the menu.
Eleven sides and shareables from $2.19. The range runs from a 100 calorie Asian Slaw to Loaded Fries at 1310.
Eleven items sit in the sides and shareables section, and they cover a wider calorie range than any other part of the Zaxby’s menu. Asian Slaw is $2.19 and 100 calories. Chicken Bacon Ranch Loaded Fries are $8.49 and 1310 calories, more than most full meals. Between them are crinkle fries, Texas toast, cole slaw and four fried starters.
Crinkle fries are the default side and the one bundled into every meal. A regular is $2.99 and 330 calories, a large is $3.99 and 850. That jump is worth noticing: the large costs a dollar more and carries more than two and a half times the calories, so it is a genuinely different portion rather than a slightly bigger one.
The two quesadillas at $8.39 sit in this section but eat like meals. Each carries three Chicken Fingerz, Cheddar Jack cheese and a sauce on a flour tortilla, comes with ranch and a small drink, and lands between 1040 and 1400 calories. They are the only items outside the meals section that ship with a drink.

Three sides sit under 500 calories: Asian Slaw at 100, cole slaw at 140 and veggie egg rolls at 370. All three cost under $5, and the two slaws are the only items on the whole Zaxby’s menu that come in under 150 calories while still being food rather than a drink.
Asian Slaw deserves more attention than it gets. Shredded green cabbage, red cabbage and carrots marinated in citrus vinaigrette, $2.19, 100 calories. Swapping it in for a regular crinkle fries on a meal takes 230 calories out of the order for eighty cents less.
Four fried shareables sit in the middle of the price range. Fried White Cheddar Bites are $5.29 and 890 calories. Fried pickles are $4.99 and 800. Veggie egg rolls are $4.79 and 370. Chicken Bacon Ranch Loaded Fries are $8.49 and 1310.
Veggie egg rolls are the anomaly. They cost less than the pickles and carry less than half the calories, because the filling is shredded vegetables in a wonton wrapper rather than something battered and dropped in a fryer. They come with sweet and spicy sauce, and they are also what the Asian Zensation Zalad ships with instead of toast.
The Loaded Fries are the heaviest single item in this section and one of the heaviest on the menu. Crinkle fries under fried chicken, Cheddar Jack, bacon and ranch is a meal in a tray, and at $8.49 it prices like one.
Chicken Bacon Ranch and Chicken Fajita quesadillas both cost about $8.39. Each holds three Chicken Fingerz and Cheddar Jack on a flour tortilla, the first with hardwood smoked bacon and ranch, the second with grilled onions, peppers and southwest ranch. Both come with a ranch cup and a small drink.
Calories land at 1070 to 1400 for the bacon ranch version and 1040 to 1370 for the fajita, with the spread coming from the drink. That puts them alongside the Big Zax Snak Meal in size while costing about sixty cents less, which makes them a quietly good order when the fries in a standard meal are not what you want.
