Fazoli’s Baked Ziti with Meat Sauce – Price & Calories (2026)
Fazoli’s Baked Ziti with Meat Sauce is a Fan Favorites staple: penne pasta folded through Fazoli’s meat sauce, blanketed with mozzarella and provolone cheeses, and baked until the top turns golden and bubbling. Every order comes with 2 Signature Garlic Breadsticks.
It costs $7.99, and the calorie count comes with a catch — Fazoli’s own menu page lists this dish at 610 calories, while Fazoli’s detailed nutrition guide lists the same dish at 830 calories. Below you’ll find the price, the full nutrition breakdown, what’s actually in it, and an honest explanation of the two numbers, so you can order with confidence.
Fazoli’s Baked Ziti with Meat Sauce Price
The Baked Ziti with Meat Sauce is priced at $7.99. Fazoli’s doesn’t publish a single national price list — individual restaurants set their own prices, and Fazoli’s own location pages have shown this dish at $10.49 to $10.99, while other menu sites estimate anywhere from $7.29 to $9.99. Treat $7.99 as the going rate at most locations; expect some variation, and confirm on the menu board or in the Fazoli’s app before you order.
At $7.99, it is one of the cheaper Fan Favorites — $4 less than the Baked Lasagna ($11.99), and the price already includes the 2 Signature Garlic Breadsticks served with it.
Baked Ziti with Meat Sauce Calories & Nutrition
Fazoli’s detailed nutrition guide lists the Baked Ziti with Meat Sauce at 830 calories. Here is the full breakdown:
| Nutrient | Amount | % Daily Value |
| Calories | 830 | — |
| Total Fat | 29g | 37% |
| Saturated Fat | 12g | 60% |
| Cholesterol | 73mg | 24% |
| Sodium | 3,220mg | 140% |
| Total Carbohydrates | 105g | 38% |
| Dietary Fiber | 12g | 43% |
| Total Sugars | 15g | — |
| Protein | 43g | 86% |
Three numbers stand out. The 43g of protein is genuinely high for a fast-food pasta bake — more than the Baked Spaghetti with Meatballs (36g) — because the meat sauce and the two-cheese topping both contribute. The trade-off is sodium: 3,220mg is about 140% of the recommended daily limit in a single dish, so for most people this is a filling, occasional order rather than an everyday one. The 105g of carbohydrates reflects the full penne portion the dish is built on.

What’s in Fazoli’s Baked Ziti with Meat Sauce?
The official description is short — penne with meat sauce, baked with mozzarella and provolone cheeses. Fazoli’s uses penne for its “ziti” (no actual ziti pasta in the dish), folded through the same seasoned meat sauce served on the Spaghetti with Meat Sauce and Baked Lasagna, topped with mozzarella and provolone until golden and bubbling, and served with 2 Signature Garlic Breadsticks. Allergens: wheat (pasta and breadsticks) and milk (cheese) — check Fazoli’s official allergen information before ordering if you have a food allergy.
Why Does Fazoli’s List Two Calorie Counts for Baked Ziti?
Search this dish, and you’ll find at least four different numbers — 610, 650, 570, and 490 calories all appear on menu and calorie-tracking sites. Here is why. Fazoli’s publishes two figures of its own: its menu page lists the Baked Ziti with Meat Sauce at 610 calories, while its full nutrition guide — the detailed document carrying fat, sodium, and protein for every item — lists the same dish at 830 calories. Most other sites simply copy one of the two, or post their own estimates; the 650 figure on the biggest menu guides is one of those guesses.
This page uses the nutrition guide’s figures, because they are the only ones that come with a complete, checkable breakdown — every number in the table above is Fazoli’s own. If you are counting calories strictly, plan around the higher figure. And if your local menu board says 610, that is Fazoli’s menu-page number, not a mistake on your part.
Baked Ziti with Meat Sauce vs. the Other Baked Pastas
| Item | Price | Calories | Protein | Sodium |
| Baked Ziti with Meat Sauce | $7.99 | 830 | 43g | 3,220mg |
| Spicy Baked Ziti with Chicken | $11.49 | 990 | 47g | 3,630mg |
| Baked Lasagna | $11.99 | 880 | 50g | 3,870mg |
Nutrition figures above are from Fazoli’s nutrition guide. The Baked Ziti with Meat Sauce is the lightest of the three bakes and by far the cheapest. The Spicy Baked Ziti with Chicken swaps the meat sauce for a spicy tomato pepper sauce with diced chicken — a little more protein, but 160 more calories and real heat. The Baked Lasagna layers pasta sheets over Alfredo sauce under the same meat sauce, and tops the protein chart at 50g — at the highest price and the highest sodium of the three.
