    Stopped in for lunch and ordered the Slim's meal (4 chicken tenders) and upgraded to fried pickles. The meal was fantastic! Everything from the lemonade I consumed to the heaping pile of fried pickles, made the chicken tenders taste that much better. Would definitely recommend Slim Chickens to anyone.

    We made a mistake on their online order and called them they fixed it with no problem and got it correct. Everything was fresh and hot and cooked well. The cold items were cold and fresh. It was a great experience.

    I love some good chicken stripes so I had to try Slim Chickens. They did not disappoint with their chicken strips. Amazing flavor in the breading and the fries also had great seasoning. If you like the other chicken strips restaurants, you need to try Slim Chickens.

    The guy working the drive-thru at around 5pm on 2/1, is a miserable person. He is clearly bothered by taking orders and his attitude reflects that. No customers service skills whatsoever. Snatching my debit card and almost throwing my food at me. I was tempted to go inside, return the food and ask for a refund at that point but that’s not who I am. Really disappointed in the service. Canes it is.

    I like Crispy Chicken Sandwich because the chicken is tender and the price is good 👍🏻I also love to use their App. The App sometimes gives me discount coupon!

    This place used to be my go-to for a chicken sandwich. They offered a regular sandwich for $3 tossed in a sauce of your choice. About a year ago they eliminated this, replacing it with a $5 regular sandwich, a larger bun, and no sauce option. The rest of their menu is average compared to the competitors in the area. Overall - not bad but not great.

    This is by far the worse meal I have ever had. This is unbelievable. The chicken is cold and hard with absolutely no seasoning, the fries are cold. This food had clearly been sitting there for HOURS. Nothing about it is even close to fresh, and the soda is pure carbonated water with color added and a chlorine smell. This is awful. To serve anyone some garbage like this, is absolutely horrible, pathetic, and sad. Not even an animal deserves this type of service. I was so excited about this place, only to be let down. First and last time ever visiting this establishment. I would've been better off spending $5 at Taco Bell, rather than $14 for this mess. To the trash is where this garbage went. Now I have to cook dinner, which defeats the purpose of me going through the drive thru. I'm flabbergasted by this. Just WOW.

    We visited this restaurant around lunch time. The line ahead of us was just a few but the line moved quickly. The cashier was patient and polite as we had not been there before. We got our number and sat down after getting drinks. Our wait was about 5-7 minutes. There was and older female employee who was working very hard to get the food to every table. She walked her legs off. She was a hard worker moving quickly. She made sure anyone receiving their order had a firm grip before she let go. Our food was hot, the chicken tenders we had were battered and well seasoned. A little salty for me but it was fine. I had fries and they were just okey, my husband had the mac n cheese and he said it was just fine. The restaurant was busy but not to loud. It was clean. We would return if we are by there again.

    The best experience ever! I ordered a catering for sone high schoolers & the staff took such great care of me & had the food ready earlier than my expectations. The kids & myself loved the food! I will be back

    I used to enjoy going here over Raisin Cains. The past few weeks I have gone to get chicken it wasn't very good. The chicken tenders and chicken breast I got the last 2 times were tough and chewy. My only guess is that they're dealing with more customers in the summer so they are buying more chicken and throwing it in the freezer. Freezing chicken affects the structure of it and that's how it tastes.

    I love this place! The chicken tenders are great & the homemade sauces! The jar desserts are awesome! My only complaint is that the tenders are very small! That's why I couldn't give it a 5 star!

  • 5/5 Chris P. 1 year ago on Google
    I've been to Slim Chickens locations countless times, and both their cayenne ranch chicken sandwich and house sauce are absolutely exceptional. Highly recommend!

  • 1/5 Erin S. 1 year ago on Google
    We waited 35 minutes for 2 meals (one of which was a salad) and finally got up and asked for a refund. We usually don't have this issue at this Slim Chicken's location. They definitely need more help. Everyone was waiting forever.

    Ordered a 5x5 but had some major issues. They forgot one sauce type, forgot the Texas toast, and put hot fried pickles directly into a styrofoam container that melted into the styrofoam and left grease all over the napkins in the bag. A poor take out experience overall.

    Last time i went in just horrible won't be going here unfortunately anymore took over 20 minutes to get my food last time also employees where touching cloths and faces and food Manager on duty wasn't very professional

    This place was so nice and clean! The whole restaurant even the bathrooms were super clean! Very nice workers that helped us and checked on us. Honestly the best chicken I have ever had. Very crispy and tasty and not greasy! Dessert was 11/10!! Amazing! We will definitely be back

  • 2/5 German J. 10 months ago on Google
    Food is okay. The fries can be a little crusty/hard sometimes. The old lady who works here is awesome. Most of the employees are pretty friendly. But there's a younger lady with arm tattoos who's usually rude to me for reasons I don't know, and what makes it worse is that I see her treating other customers nicer than she treats me. Not sure what I did to piss her off.

  • 1/5 Marlee P. 11 months ago on Google
    Very careless with their pickup orders. Wrong flavors and sauces or no sauces and forgot our $7 dessert jar but had it highlighted it on the reciept like they had given it to us. Chicken was inedible ended up giving it to my dog. Mac n cheese was soured. No one would eat it. Absolutely awful.

  • 1/5 Summer W. 8 months ago on Google
    I come here often and had the absolute WORST customer service by the girl working the drive through window. After literally waiting 17 minutes at the window for my order to still be wrong. This was at 4:15 Saturday October 7. This is absolutely ridiculous to pay $20 for a meal to take 20 minutes and be wrong and then be treated like you’re the one in the wrong.

  • 5/5 Jose O. 1 year ago on Google
    For me and my wife, this is a wonderful place! Great customer service. Excellent food and, I appreciate that you get to choose fried or grilled. Atmosphere is very nice as well.

    Had to ask for money back. Waited over 35 mins no food. The team I was with served quicker @ twisted fresh which was far busier. 3 other people asked for money back also. Very poor service will not eat at a slim chicken again.

  • 5/5 Vicky G. 1 year ago on Google
    I went back today with a friend and ate inside the restaurant. The people are friendly and I'm a little obsessed with the fried mushrooms. I always get the Slim Chicken spinach and chicken wrap - so good! Highly recommend.

    Great food fantastic service great staff highly recommend

  • 5/5 Joel W. 2 years ago on Google
    I'm surprised to just learn of this place after nearly a year's residency in town, but I'm glad I stopped by today. The tenders are indeed 100% quality white meat, finely fileted chicken breast, lightly breaded and seasoned with a Southern-style mix of spices. It's definitely good quality, since the breading doesn't overwhelm the meat, but still allow for good consistency and flavor to come through. Meals are served with traditional fries and a side of toast, hot and ready for eating. Overall, I was quite impressed and I'll definitely be back again for future dining experiences.

    Great place if you are looking to have wings/ tenders at a fast food style restaurant. Their chicken tenders are very tender and are amazing! They also have a wide variety of dipping sauces to choose from. Highly recommend!

  • 4/5 Erica S. 1 year ago on Google
    Facility was clean and staff was working hard but definitely understaffed for a Friday night. Waited quite a while to have order taken (2 in front of us waited also). Staff was nice and food was good. Came out incredibly hot.

  • 4/5 Tyra A. 2 years ago on Google
    We have complained about the cleanliness of this restaurant. On our most recent visit, it has improved. The lady that took our order was absolutely the best! The wings were perfect. The chicken tenders were great, and the potato salad is by far the best we have ever had!

  • 5/5 Rebecca R. 2 years ago on Google
    Everything was fantastic. We love Slims Chicken. I dont know we ever had a complaint. Great staff, speedy service, excellent food. One of our favorite chicken places!!

  • 3/5 Randy D. 2 years ago on Google
    Their strips can be a little tough at times. The house sauce is really good though. And the desert jars should probably be split with someone but good grief they are good.

  • 5/5 Daniel P. 2 years ago on Google
    So good. I drive 20 minutes for this places juicy, crispy, and decadent chicken with a massive variety of signature sauces and delectable sides. Customer service is amazing, food is always fresh, and lines move fast. Check it out they are downright delicious!

  • 5/5 Dalton W. 2 years ago on Google
    Great food and specifically like that they offer wings on their menu which is something that separates them from some of the other chicken joints in the area. Slims sauce > canes sauce all day long. Louis is an absolute sweetheart and I love walking in and seeing her working in the afternoon.. always a pleasant experience!

  • 5/5 Tim R. 2 years ago on Google
    Had the buffalo chicken sandwich meal and the fried mushrooms. Everything was fast, fresh, and delicious. The buffalo sauce on the sandwich had a fair kick to it. Not the hottest, but it was respectable and had good flavor, the chicken was juicy and the sandwich had solid toppings too. Definitely would consider going back next time I'm in the neighborhood.
