    I wanted to like this place as I enjoy some good chicken. My chicken was a little dry. And the seasoning was just not there. I went through the drive-through so I couldn't tell you anything about the inside.

    Stopped by and enjoyed a carry out meal. I love that they have a lot of sauce options! I thought the chicken and fries had a lot of flavor. We even took home one of the Oreo cheesecake desserts. My husband enjoyed chicken sandwich. We will definitely be back!

    Fried Pickles

    I was taking my mom to an appointment nearby so we decided to stop in. I love a good chicken tender with gravy. We decided to split the classic meal (4 tenders) and the fried pickles. Everything came out super hot and fresh. I wasn't a huge fan of the chicken but my mom really liked it. I did like that they had a ton of sauce options - I went with the gravy and the mango habanero. We didn't get them this time, but they do have some very delicious-looking jar desserts. The staff were friendly and we got our order through the drive-thru fairly quick.

    Strawberry Cheesecake Jar Dessert

    My first time coming here & I can honestly say this was the best semi-fast food chicken I've had in awhile. Chicken was full of seasoning (unlike similar places *cough cough* canes) I got the 3 & 3 meal or something like that - it was 3 wings and 3 tenders, fries and a piece of toast. You can choose the seasoning for the wings but only a sauce for the tenders as they come uniformly seasoned. The highlight of my visit was the freaking strawberry cheesecake jar dessert! OMG! Service was much like any fast food restaurant, however we did eat inside. The tables were clean and it was very tidy inside. Overall, I give the whole meal a 4/5.

    Crispy Chicken Sandwich

    Another chicken fast food place with a Southern theme, but opened on Sunday. The food was good, but what set them apart from the other fast food joints was the service. The service was outstanding. Jessica was cheerful and greeted us, eagerly awaiting our order. Leland delivered food with another big smile. They offer a variety of chicken sandwiches, chicken waffles and even a chicken salad. You can order your chicken spicy with a number of different levels of heat. You order and they bring food to the table. Food comes out in a quick 5 minutes. We had Crispy Chicken Sandwiches and fries. The chicken batter was crispy, meat moist and there was mayo and pickle on the sandwich. It was good and not too much food. At $5, it was a great deal for a good sandwich. The fries were also very good and generous portion that is easily sharable. I would have preferred a little less salt. The restaurant is new so all the decor is crisp and clean. There is also an outside covered patio area to eat and watch the traffic go by. They have a drive through order and an app to order on-line. 5 star for fast food.

    Chicken wrap with fried mushrooms

    Great for a quick bite that doesn't have the feel of fast food.Friendly service and I got to taste a few sauces before making my choice. Plenty of seats and not too loud. Loved the wrap! The strawberry lemonade was great and not too sour like most places are.

    I'm kind of disappointed in this food chain. First time going, I was under the impression that it was going to give me the same type of food style like Raising Canes and Zaxby. However, the food was underwhelming. I got the four piece tender meal. I got to pick two dipping sauces and I picked garlic parmesan and buffalo sauce. I have had better tenders. The garlic parmesan sauce tasted like the dipping sauce that you would get at a seafood boil restaurant. I do not recommend. I will say that I also got the spicy barbecue dipping sauce and the Buffalo and they were a 10 out of 10 . Any extra sauce is a $.39 charge. I tried my brother, six piece wings. He got his wings sauced in buffalo sauce unfortunately for us, the sauce was cold. He said we should've went to Buffalo wild wings that's how underwhelming it was. The sweet tea was decent. Nothing to really rave about however, it wasn't bad. I did get a side of the mac & cheese, but I didn't eat it because I was so disappointed in the rest of the food. Everything cost $32. Will I be back ? Maybe not this location. On a positive note, the drive-through went quickly & the customer service was friendly and not rude.

    Buffalo Wrap Meal

    This is my first time at Slim chickens. The employees were warm, welcoming and gave me some suggestions of their favorite items. I decided to try the buffalo chicken wrap. To my surprise the wrap wasn't filling as I presumed however, j it was very tasty. In the future if I choose to to get the wrap again, I would substitute it with an another side over the fries. Im interested in trying the chicken and waffles next time.

    I saw the progress of their construction work all summer, and I was looking forward to finally trying Slim Chickens! I love fried chicken and my expectations were high. I went on a Sunday for lunch down-in. They were not that crowded and many seats were open. I ordered chicken tender combo. I really liked that they had so many sauces to choose from. I chose Korean BBQ, but it tasted more sour than sweet; not what I thought. The food took long- I waited a little more than 15 minutes. The chicken was good-just ordinary. unfortunately there is not much to write about. I loved the soft drink options there. If I am craving fried chicken I'll definitely come here, but it is not a place I will make a special trip for.

    Chick's Meal
    Teresa M.

    First time around we tried them within the first week they opened. My thought this isn't a fair representation for them. "Too new to rate" I'll hold my review. They were packed - a literal madhouse... employees still learning systems. Lots of tables getting incomplete or wrong orders. We waited 35 minutes, but the tenders were nice and hot so overall service at that point needed a bit improvement but food was what I was expecting. Okay so finally returned and will consider this experience the one i'm rating. The service improved for the most part. The front counter person was acknowledging and greeting customers in a polite way. The two of us ordered tenders meals. There isn't a ton else on the menu. The biggest choice is which sauce you want. Okay husband says BBQ... well they have 4 or so different ones so he picks 2... 1 ends up coming with the meal... Not the biggest deal but we would have been fine with paying for the extra if that is the issue. One sauce for four tenders - not enough variety for me. The food took just over 15 mins for dine-in. Not a big deal BUT the chicken tenders weren't hot- fries were soggy and oil tasted like it needed changed. Maybe.. my expectations were too high. The decor is simple with TVs on sports and guitars hung on the wall. I'd go again in a few more months. Maybe the runny ranch and warmish food will improve. Potential is there

    Have driven past Slim Chickens and finally stopped in. It's a go up to the counter and they will bring your meal over place. Large selection of drinks you get yourself. My friend wanted to try the chicken and waffles and gave it an ok. Kind of a small portion compared to other new chicken places. I ordered the grilled chicken salad and was pleasantly surprised. I was expecting a bagged salad but everything on this one was fresh and large portions. They offer primarily tenders, wings and a variety of side like Mac & cheese and fried orca. Several milkshakes too.

    Today was Grand Opening for Slim Chickens in Traders Point. They tore down the former Macaroni Grill :( and built the new restaurant over the past year. I ordered the Chick's Meal. 3 Piece chicken tenders, Fries, Garlic Toast and a Dipping Sauce. I jokingly asked the young lady to tell me about the 17 dipping sauces. She pointed out the sticker on the counter. I at least expected her to say maybe what her favorite was or recommend one. Drink station with 4 different teas and a soda machine. Lots of seating inside and a covered patio outside. I got my meal to go. The chicken was decent. Honestly nothing really special about it. The cayenne Ranch dip I got was good. The garlic toast was good and super garlicky. The fries weren't remotely even near crisp. Quite soggy actually. Other than having numerous dipping sauces this is pretty much like Raising Caines.

    This is my second time here I went on 4/24 and again on 5/2. I live near Greenfield but this was definitely worth the travel. The homemade cayenne ranch is delicious with just a hint of heat. Chicken is crispy and the seasoned fry and so good. They also have sweet and unsweetened tea, peach tea and raspberry tea as well. What? Yummy yummo! The staff was very courteous also. I was indecisive on if I was going to try something different but being the creature of habit that I am I went back to what I had before. This time I brought a friend. Since she had never been there she needed additional time peruse the menu as well. Not knowing that after downloading the app on 4/24 I could refer people. So not only did I get $5 off of $10 for downloading the app I also got $4 for the referral. It's a win-win! Now to get you all to open a location on the far eastside of Indy.

    What a cool, family friendly, game night-vibe restaurant downtown! It's right next to North Mass…read moreBoulder and not far from being directly downtown - far enough a way that there's plenty of parking and that's not an issue. The outside and the inside blend together nicely since they have garage doors that open and it kind of all just becomes one. We got there right when it opened and there were already multiple other parties heading in for a table. Lots of kids. There's board games and other games outside on turf to play so awesome family option or if you have a big group. Service was quick and friendly. We had the breadsticks to start and the dough was so light and puffy, and the outside was crisp, it almost tasted like it was fried and not baked. They were great! The dough of the pizza must be the same because we got the Bama BBQ and Bees Sneez pizzas and the crust was just like the breadsticks and we loved it. Bees sneez was sweet with some spicy from the jalapeños. Id get it again! Everyone enjoyed that one. The guys at our table had buffalo wings and said they were also awesome - they gave them an 8/10. The pizza is definitely the go to menu pick here, the different combinations they have and the crust are what make it a standout compared to others! We'll be back!

Our server was very friendly. The large selection of board games and ping pong set up made for a fun wait before our pizza came out. Shin Dig is known for their speciality pizzas, so, we opted to try the "Russet," a potato themed pizza. I usually love all things potato, but I did not enjoy this one. The crust was crisp and delectable, but the amount of cheese overpowered the other flavors and it was sloughing off the dough. I think if there was less cheese and it would was cooked longer I probably would've enjoyed it more. Either way - nice spot! We will be back to give the food another try.

I was seated quickly at the bar and the bartenders at that time were great and punctual and making sure I got a menu and everything else I needed.

I took several glances at the food other were ordering and they all looked so appealing and appetizing. I decided to order something that I haven't tried anywhere else, so I ordered the Southern Shakshuka, which is their own unique spin-off to the original.

I got my order to go but the gentleman who took my order was kind enough to offer me a cup for some water. The spot was happening. Music, good vibes, the decor was fun. I couldn't decide which meal I was trying so I'm definitely going to make another trip sometime soon. I got the tenders with mac but added a side of greens. Boy oh boy the greens were the star and wow my tastebuds were incredibly satisfied. I've had greens but these were like some ultimate flavors and holy greens i definitely could just order some of these every now and again by themselves. Mac was great. Definitely complimented the greens. The tenders though omg. The flavor was insane. I gotta try them with the waffles next time for sure. Overall the wait wasn't long and my food was still hot. I ended up sharing with my son and he was even raving about it. Great service, fun and lit atmosphere, last but not least food was fire. Side note: people complain about price but I'll be honest, when the food is good and staff are amazing, the price to me doesn't matter.

It honestly hurt to see all that chicken go directly into the garbage, but they claim it was inedible.

I felt that there was a sweetness to the flavor that I liked, which I could see not everyone enjoying. There is also a hot dusting over the french fries which exacerbates any discomfort people are having from the heat. There really wasn't anything to cool it down. The macaroni and cheese was piping hot, although not spicy.

The space is big and fun, with a large dining room, an old-school video arcade game, interesting art, and a big screen playing movies, which adds to the laid-back, quirky vibe. It's counter service with clear menu boards on the wall, making ordering easy. I had the cheesy jalapeño grits with bacon and an egg and... my goodness. So incredibly delicious. One friend ordered the same grits but swapped in fried catfish instead of bacon--also a fantastic choice. Our third went with a classic plate with eggs and bacon, and let me tell you, the bacon is thick and plentiful. We ordered a side of fries for the table and there were more than enough to share.

My husband got a Diet Coke that came in a can and we both got a classic plate minus the toast. 2 eggs, 2 sausage patties... nothing special including the presentation. The price for each plate was $18 plus a $2 can of coke and a tip they didn't deserve brought our total to a little over $40. The eggs were flavorless and literally had no seasoning. I did appreciate that the sausage patties weren't greasy. That was about the only good thing. The decor looked like they took whatever thrift stores couldn't sell with no particular theme. Funny enough, we went out for breakfast a few days later to a DIFFERENT PLACE and for the SAME PRICE got way more food, better quality food, better presentation, full table service, friendly service, great atmosphere, and an overall wonderful experience. Overall, I would not recommend this place. We left feeling like we got ripped off and I could have made the same thing better at home.
