Chicken tenders are delicious. The sauce options are plentiful like 17. I had a side salad. It's made with dark leafy greens. It was amazing! Food tasted very fresh.

I think Slim Chickens is very good. The chicken is well made and the sauces are pretty good. The chicken gravy is my favorite. The fries are good and the Mac and cheese is just ok. Good enough for lunch. Overall it's a good chicken restaurant and should be on your list if you like fried chicken or chicken wings.Vegetarian options: None unless you count the fries or Mac and cheese. I'm sure they are not vegetarian though.Kid-friendliness: Good for kids.Wheelchair accessibility: Looks like it meets code in all areas.

I recently downloaded the app and tonight I tried the crispy chicken breast without the cayenne ranch seasoning since it was for my wife and she's allergic. Overall, it was NOT a good experience. The cashier accused me of clicking the "REDEEM" button in October, which I said "I did not," because I only got the app last month. She was frustrated and insisted that I did something wrong and that the app is very sensitive. Finally, after five minutes, she gave me the free chicken sandwich, which I was promised for signing up after giving them my information. For the record, my wife will only eat grilled and not fried and they do NOT serve a much more healthy grilled chicken as an option on the menu. Can you believe it?? I know since it's totally crazy. We can delete the app, since we will never return to Slim Chickens in this lifetime. Overall, it was NOT a good experience. They have very poor customer service! I have a free birthday treat that I will let expire next month. Just skip it, since Culver's and Chick-fil-A are much better options IMHO! I wish them luck in this new location. I waited until they were open for a few weeks to get their staff properly trained so they could learn the POS, but apparently, that did not help...I consider myself a local food critic, so I'm posting and warning other customers.

The food is hot and fresh but as mentioned in another review it is super salty. Especially the fried pickles. And it's not the actual pickles that are salty, it's the batter. As for the flavor of the chicken tenders, they are on par with PDQ which is not saying much. The service for the most part was pretty good except for the younger gentleman at the register who clearly did not want to be at work. Restaurant is nice and clean.

Enjoyed the chicken and waffles. The waffles was light and the chicken was piping hot. Flavors of both were great. It's plain and simple but very tasty. I'm definitely coming back to try other things on the menu.

We liked it We finally tried the new Slim Chickens last night. It's a large clean place inside with a few more tables outside. We checked out the overhead menu, asked the order taker about popular items, and ended up ordering sandwiches, mine their Cayenne Chicken Sandwich. You order and pay, they give you a number tent, and bring your food to your table. Our food was delivered even before we finished filling our drinks at the fountain machine. My spicy sandwich wasn't spicy at all, but the chicken was moist and good. There were more fries than I expected for my meal. My wife lamented everything offered was deep fried, there were no grilled items. Checking out their website today I learned they do offer grilled items, at least for chicken tenders, their catch phrase is "just say grilled". Now we know. Maybe make that obvious on the menu. I kind of missed paying attention to their 17 sauces thing advertised on their door handles. Yes, the website lists 17 sauces, including one called Gravy. Gravy for the fries and spicy sauces for the chicken? I like that plan. It says on the wall "cooked to order". Our food came out so fast I don't think that would have been possible, maybe assembled to order. The wall also said 'Delta Blues", and I realized I was listing to blues music, nice. All in all, we did like our visit and our food.

My wife and I have been twice both times it was nothing special. Their food is very very salty. Looks like you're taking chicken and adding a tablespoon of salt. If it wasn't so salty, we would probably like it all more. staff is very friendly.
