The service was friendly. Checked on me once within 30 minutes and had to flag her down for a refill. The ambiance was quiet at first, but then as the restaurant got busier it changed to people talking. Would recommend.

If you're rolling through Forest City with a craving for comfort food done right, Slim's is exactly…read morewhere you want to land. From the moment you walk in, you get that "you're among friends" vibe--no fuss, no frills, just genuinely good food and genuinely good people serving it. The menu hits all the classics, but everything comes out tasting like someone in the kitchen still believes in doing things the old-fashioned way: hot, fresh, flavorful, and without any shortcuts. The burgers are juicy, the fries are crisp and addictive, and the portion sizes are generous enough that you leave full but still thinking about what you'll order next time. Service is quick, friendly, and attentive in that small-town way that feels effortless. You can tell the locals love this place--and after one visit, it's easy to see why. Slim's is one of those spots that proves great meals don't need to be complicated, just made with care. Whether you're a traveler, a regular, or a hungry geocacher between finds, Slim's is the kind of place you'll be glad you stopped at. Highly recommended!

When the waitress checked back I opted for their hand pressed burger that comes with lettuce and tomato and a pickle spear on the side, plus a side of your choice. I added cheese to the burger for a $1 up charge and chose fries for my side item. I was pleasantly surprised this time that the ambiance was not so loud that people would have to yell to talk with one another, it was at a normal restaurant range with the occasional loud laugh or child, but pleasant. My food came within a reasonable time and tasted really good. The waitress checked on me several times and provided refills and the check promptly. For all the above I would have to recommend. However, the cost was $16 and change for cash or $17 with a card (not including a tip). I know that prices are higher on everything, but this is a little much for what I had. And if I had know ahead of time they didn't have Gyros anymore I would have gone somewhere else with as good if not better burgers for a better price.

If comfort food and good vibes ever had a rowdy little love child, its name would be Hoot Nannie…read more From the moment we walked in, it felt like stepping straight into the coziest Southern restaurant/bar if that grandma also had a killer playlist, a sassy sense of humor, and a talent for feeding people until they're blissfully immobile. The food? Spectacular. Every plate that came out looked like it had been handcrafted by angels who apprenticed in a BBQ smokehouse. The portions were the perfect mix of generous and "you're definitely taking leftovers home and happily eating them cold at midnight." And the flavors? Mercy. One bite in and you're suddenly questioning why you ever wasted calories anywhere else. The staff deserves special mention (Jada) friendly, hilarious, and quicker than a hummingbird after a double espresso. They made the whole meal feel like a celebration, even though all we celebrated was how fast we could inhale dinner. Whether you're craving hearty home cooking, a place to laugh with friends, or just a restaurant with a name that's as fun to say as it is to eat at, Hoot Nannie absolutely delivers. Five stars, two thumbs up, and one very happy, very full customer.

It was delicious as always. It's offered with pita wedges or sliced cucumber, or 1/2 and 1/2. We like the 1/2 and 1/2 option. It was quiet and we had an enjoyable meal.
