Slim Chickens

I've gone 3 times and the portions seem to just get some smaller than the last. These "tenders" are the size of a ketchup packet and weigh less than 1oz each. But they charge $10. Don't waste your money here. Photo included to prove size. The restaurant was clean and the staff is always polite but the value is 0/10 would not recommend.

My daughter and I both ordered the classic tender meals through the app for curbside. I upgraded to the fried pickles for my side with an unsweet tea and she got fries with a diet Dr Pepper. She sat there for a bit and someone came out and asked about her order. Apparently it hadn't dropped from the app yet so it took a lot longer than it was supposed to. There were a couple issues with the order. We had 2 ranch and 2 gravy. Do you know what happens when you put hot gravy and cold ranch tied up together in a little plastic bag? You end up with lukewarm gravy and ranch. My unsweet tea tasted old but I've come to know that anytime I order tea from anywhere that I take a chance that it will be old. The diet DP was also not diet. But the biggest issue was the size of the chicken tenders. They were tiny! You can see the size in the pictures. I gave 3 stars because the pickles were good. But it was slightly over $23 for the 2 meals and based on the size of the tenders...it was not worth it.

I visit my family here all the way from NYC a few times a year. A stop at this location of Slims is always on my list. Tonight we dined in. The food was fresh, hot, and tasted great. The service was top notch. I need to shout out shift Manager Josh, who’s friendly demeanor and charming smile behind the counter made the visit even more pleasant. I have to imagine working under his leadership must be a lot of fun. I got to witness him training an employee on some cash-register gymnastics. Also, Jaylene- who brought us a sauce they forgot, and also brought me salt and pepper, even though I didn’t realize they were self-serve items. Classy!! Finally, Jaylene checked on us twice, almost as if this was a sit-down restaurant and not fast food. Excellent work! Thanks for always being a pleasant stop on my visits.

Slim Chickens is a 3/5 for me because, while they are good, they are terribly inconsistent. On their best days, I would put them above Cain's. On their worst, I would just say go to McDonalds as it will be 3x cheaper and taste better anyway. For some reasons, the food quality and portion sizes seem to be random. About 20% of the time you get these big, juicy tenders and fresh fries. 30% of the time they forget your sauce, the chicken is mostly tendons, and the fries are stale. It is just a gamble every time you go, and for $26 to feed two people, Slim Chickens is fatally close to that line of convenience not outweighing poor quality. On their best days, they can be a 5 star fast food experience. But, for whatever reason, they are more likely to be a terrible waste of money or a disappointment.
