Wow!! Talk about customer service - the general manager contacted me regarding my review. Since the Katy location was still in training at the time of my visit, I was given incorrect info on ordering meals - you CAN just order a meal without a drink. The manager was eager for us to give them another chance (which we were going to do anyway ;) ) and has invited us back for a family meal on him! Thanks Nathan! Excited that more locations will be opening soon! You will do well in Katy! read more

I discovered this place one night when I was out with my son looking for dinner. I must say it's some of the best chicken I have ever had. The chicken is very lightly breaded which suits me just fine and it is always fresh and hot. I love the choices of dipping sauce and the jar desserts are decadent and to die for. My service has always been impeccable and I would highly recommend going there. Don't forget to try the chicken and waffles it's awesome. As a side note it can get pretty busy on the weekends as well as evenings so plan on a little wait if you go at peak times. Enjoy read more

DO NOT GIVE SLIM CHICKENS YOUR BUSINESS. THEY ARE DISHONEST AND DECEPTIVE IN THEIR PRACTICES. We would normally take advantage of Slim Chickens Wednesday Chicken and Waffles special for $5.99. Out of convenience, we downloaded the Slim Chickens app so that I could place the orders over the app while my wife would go by the drive thru to pick up the order. I had the app linked to my credit card. Every Wednesday, we ordered four orders of the Chicken and Waffles and were charged $9.99 for each order, meaning $4 per order more than the special price. After having placed nine orders of the same 4 Chicken and Waffles meals, we noticed that we were not charged the $5.99 price. It took me three separate emails over about a month and a half just to get somebody from Slim Chickens to even respond. Today, their area manager informed me that they would not be refunding me the $144 we were overcharged because the Wednesday Chicken and Waffles special is only good if you order in the drive thru or dine in. This in not acceptable, is false advertising and deceptive. First of all, nowhere on the Slim Chickens app does it say that the $5.99 special price does not apply to app orders and, secondly, it makes no sense because we are placing the orders thru the app for convenience and at STILL PICKING UP THE ORDERS IN PERSON. How does that not qualify for the special price? If we were getting it delivered, then I would understand, but that's not the case with us. It's a shame that Slim Chickens has chosen dishonest business practices over truth in advertising and customer loyalty. This is the Slim Chickens Katy location at 23320 Mercantile Pkwy. read more

This is a decent place to eat for chicken lovers. I fell in love with the style and decoration, really nice place and customer service was good. I got the chicken sandwich which was good and fries were amazing. My significant one got 3&3 meal (3 wings, 3 chicken tenders) and was a little bit disappointed. Wings did not taste fresh and tenders were really salty. She also loved the fries and the sauce variety. Concept is cool but think they need to improve quality of food preparation a little be. read more

So I have had the usual several visits prior to this review. Good news, I like the place A-lot. Bad news.... it would have received 5 stars if the table wad clean on such a not so busy day. Quality of food is excellent for chicken. The sraff super friendly each visit. Also the quality dis not suffer at any time during any of my visits. I recommend a visit if you like hot fresh chicken with or without waffles. Wings or fries. This place is good. Enjoy. read more

Just finished up our first taste of Slim Chickens in Schertz on FM3009. (I'll just up front say why I finished the meal .. I'm a T1 diabetic & had already taken insulin so I was on "the clock". Meaning regardless of how it tastes..gotta hork it down however it may be) . We ordered the regular cripsy chicken sandwich ($4.99) and the Buffalo Crispy chicken sandwich ($5.99) along with a side of Fried Mushrooms that we split for our first try. I know that they just recently opened up, so I will try back in a month, but was not impressed. Everything...and I mean everything...was overseasoned.. My wife just handed me her halves and then went to find something to get the salty taste of it out of her mouth. My first bite of the mushroom I snuck before handing her I stifled an "oh sh*t" to avoid influencing her. (Just in case my tastebuds were off-it happens) The breading on everything was so salty that it left your mouth having a bitter flavor. (again I would have taken it back if I had't already injected insulin). Now I have had Bush's Chicken a time or two that has been slightly overseasoned (which was the complete opposite of Canes.. no seasoning whatsoever)ut never like this. But before the oversalting took over our pallets the barest hint of goodness poked through. That is the most positive thing I can say about it...every restaurant has a bad day..it happens. The greatest positives that can be said were, the restaurant was very clean, smelled nice, and the staff was super friendly and efficient despite being busy. I really hope this was a fluke. The 'shrooms ($5.49) were ehhh okay but overseasoned by far as well... (salt lick if we're honest). All in all for a first try, if I could give them a half star I would, it did NOT represent good value for the money when there are better competitors out there. If this review stays this negative or non updated by march or aprils of 2023 it would mean that our second trip showed no real changes. read more

Perfect food every time. Kelly the manager is all about Customer Service. Their Chicken N Waffles is the best around.

we live out of town and was checking in at the hotel next door. Well aware of any people or traffic near. Wasn't even there 1 minute with nobody in view of coming thru the drive thru when the fat manager told us very rudely we couldn't stand there and we were actually walking away. We both couldn't go into the restaurant and our phones were acting up so we couldn't look up the menu(we tried it on our phones before we very quickly glanced at the drive thru menu). Once again I will state no one was near us or coming thru!! We went thru with our order still because we were tired of traveling. Never again will I eat here. Salty chicken, bad fries. Rude people in and out of restaurant and bad food. Dont eat here save your $!! Fort Walton beach visitors read more

Honestly don't know where i've been all my life when it comes to this damn place. I've been here now 3-4 times and every time they didn't disappoint!! Their seasoned tenders and variety of sauces are just great. I recently tried the chicken & waffles and omg!! Words can't explain the bliss I was feeling with each bite of that waffle!! 5 stars thru and thru! read more

The tenders are tossed in a sauce after frying which leaves you with wet chicken. If you opt for the meal, count your fries as mashed potatoes because the wet chick and left over sauce is poured in the container which causes the thin cut fries to become wet and ughhh! Typically, people cannot go wrong with fried pickles. Well, Slim Chickens did. Pickles are already salted but to batter them with a seasoned batter makes the experience of eating the them not worth it. I ordered $50 of food and my hubby and son typically eat what I don't finish. We threw away much of the food last night and no one wanted anything from anyone. Usually, the chances are slim I will return to a good establishment when the food is not great but here is no chance I will ever go here. Stick to Wing Stop, Cane's or Zaxby. I doubt this place will make it for a long time in the Houston area. read more

Not worth my money, the size of chicken pieces you get does not compare with the competition. read more

Slim Chickens - 7.90 dollars for this size of chicken strips...I DONT THINK SO..going to stick to other chicken places!!! - Chicken Wings Near Me - Katy, Texas

First time last time. Way too expensive. I got the 5 and 5. 5 buffalo wings and 5 chicken strips with ranch dipping sauce. The wings were just whatever. And the chicken strips they gave me were cold and dry and bland. Also, look at the photo of I posted comparing one drumstick to another. They take their "slim" chicken name too literally. read more

The employees of the slim chickens on park row and 99 took my credit card info and got star bucks gift cards. It was the morning of 10/2/20. I will be contacting their district manager and regional manager. I would give this place 0 stars if possible read more

So happy to find many choices of dipping sauce, especially white gravy. Love all of the food !! read more

We had to go . Fried mushroom very soggy and has a fries pice in it. Wings were like a plastic and not crispy at all. Blue cheese was like water. Only good thing was mac and cheese for our kid. Never again. read more

Slim Chickens - Fried mushroom very soggy, mashed and looks like a left over piece of fries in it. Wings are like a plastic and not crispy . Never try again - Chicken Wings Near Me - Katy, Texas

Horrible experience with cashier error and unhelpful and rude management member. Credit card charged 2x's in error. Management advised me they would fix it, then charged the wrong amount again...not a refund. I am stuck waiting to get my funds back. Not worth the hassle. Please train your employees and management read more

We got a variety of items for an office lunch, everything was great! I loved the wraps and mac n cheese!! So good! And the huge variety of sauces was awesome! read more

Chicken wings, and fried pickles!? Color me intrigued! But then I tried it, and now you can color me bummed. It's a fast casual kind of place, walk up counter, order from an uninterested employee who mindlessly types your excited carefully planned order into a register...fun. I got the 3x3, three wings and three tenders, I subbed friend pickles for the fries, because...duh. I was asked what wing sauce I wanted and I asked for Hot. I got my three tiny tenders and realized that they are not seasoned with the wing sauce...bummer! My three chicken wings were so tiny...what happened? These took about half a bite each to finish off, and hot!? It could have been called mild-maybe flavor and I would have been skeptical. Lame. The fried pickles were so salty (and I don't mind salt) that they were not good. Too thin to get crispy and the batter was okay, the yere so thin it was mostly super salty fried batter with a hint of pickle. The sweat tea was again too mild and just okay. The inside was nice, big booths, long tables, nice and bright, tons of paper towels and some TVs scattered around playing sports. I don't know...just bummed me out. I guess my consolation is that it cost me about $12 for disappointment and it could have been more. The wings should be far bigger. The sauce should be more flavorful/spicy. The fried pickles should be thicker and the batter less salty. The chicken tenders should be sauced (or offered as an option at the time of order). The sweat tea should be sweeter. So yea...I don't need to go back. Too bad. read more

First time trying this place and found it pretty good. Place was fairly busy but got our food fairly quick. I got the 3 piece chicken meal which was pretty filling even though the pieces of chicken were small. I also enjoyed the fries and the way they season them. The prices can seem pretty expensive compared to the size of the meal but it tasted very Good.on Wednesdays they have a $5.99 deal if your wanting to try the chicken and waffles. I didn't get to try but maybe next time. read more

Many at our table commented that the chicken had a flavor that was "close" to Chik-fil-a, although the breading is different. The tenders were hot, fresh and flavorful. I didn't care for the slim sauce, but other sauces were very good. The Chicken and waffle (1 Texas shaped waffle) was a great plate and I would get it again. read more

Literally every order in the last 8 months was wrong. Decent chicken but let's be honest. It's just chicken strips. If they manage to count them out correctly and get the sauce you request, you're good. But that is rare. Very rare read more

The food was average, there wasn't much that was special about it. We got the kid's tenders and the three by three. The chicken tenders were hot, but flavorless unless you did dip in the sauces. That cayenne ranch was bomb and the honey mustard was sweet and good, however the slim sauce was too thick. The service was good at the register, depending on who you got: Mark A. was awesome at the register and made good recommendations for us. The other employees were fooling around and unaware of their environment. Pretty distracting for customers to place their order. One thing that really baffled our group was the fact that they lined up their chairs and made a block towards the soda machine so that none of the customers could self-serve. When you need a refill, you kind of just linger along the blockage until someone comes and refills your drink or you're a revel and decide to climb over nchairs and get your own refill. ***confused*** It would be nice if someone acknowledged that you were entering or leaving the facility, especially for being new to the area. read more

Slim Chickens - What is with this wall of chairs discouraging customers to get a refill? I don't get it... - Chicken Wings Near Me - Katy, Texas

We like this place! Go here weekly...have tried the chick's plate, slim's plate, chicken and waffles, fried pickles and the fried pies. All served fresh and very hot! Favorite sauce is cayenne ranch....just a little spice, not too hot. Also, have to comment that the drive thru staff are very polite and easy to make conversation with. Will definitely be back! read more

Canes is so much better. The sauce, the fries, even the coleslaw. I did enjoy the shakes and their chicken is good. Would not eat there again. read more

The chicken was okay, nothing special. And my food was kind of cold when I got it. I may go back if I'm around but it's nothing I would go out of my way for. read more

We love this place! Always great service and awesome food! By far the best wings in Houston! We love the Chicken and Waffles and our favorite wings are the Garlic Parm and the Honey BBQ. My husband loves the Mango Habanero too. They are quick and the atmosphere is great with music and sports always on. read more

Slim Chickens - Awesome chicken and waffles! - Chicken Wings Near Me - Katy, Texas

It's not what I thought going into it,but I did want to check it out. I got the chicken and waffles, fried pickles, others got a chicken salad, and I forget what else. Now I was ok with my chicken and waffles on a paper plate. I could tell the waffles were a step up from the Hampton inn waffles you make when you schlep down to the breakfast area in the mornings. It had 2 chicken tenders on top, syrup already pored over it, had to order another side at the counter. Nothing to wow me but nothing to complain about either. You just have to know going in that it is a order at the counter and wait at your table for it to come. I didn't realize this myself. It's also a sort of "Fuddruckers"kind of place in the sense that it's a step above fast food. I would go back if ever in the mood for this, I just didn't realize it going into it. Sort of a longer wait than I would expect. Maybe.still working out the kinks since it's relatively new. Service was a bit on the slower side-made to order,so there you go. You could see the servers walking around looking lost even though we had table numbers. Send they forget to look at that and walked around aimlessly looking for the rightful owners of their food. I'm not ruling this place out, it's just that I now know what they offer and have to want it. read more

We ordered wing meals, first No fries, the wings were over cooked and hard. one order was lemon pepper... no taste at all. we where so disappointed. Ok the only thing that was good was the tea half lemonade drink. read more

First time coming here and was a great experience. The Chicken is very juicy and delicious 10 of 10 will recommend.

the food here is always hot and tasty. best chicken tenders and waffles literally ever. the manager here is super nice and helpful and always checks in on us. i love coming to this place read more

I have passed this place a couple of times and finally decided to try it. I had the 3×3 which is 3 tenders and 3 wings. The wings were mango haberno and the dipping sauces which you get two were cayenne ranch and honey mustard. The wings were okay a little overcooked and the tenders were good, put you in the mind of cane's. I had fries as my side which were greasy and I tried the jar Reese's cheesecake which was delicious. My total came out to a little over 15$. I probably won't be back since it was nothing outstanding about it. The sauces were okay but it wasn't anything I haven't tried before. The highlight was the cheesecake which I don't need anyway lol. Overall to pricey for the food and the quality. read more

We go here all the time and usually it's very good and hot food but thus time went through the drive thru and when we drove off I told my wife to hand me a tender, man that thing was so chewy you could tell it had been sitting there awhile, the other 4 weren't any better but I paid for it so I ate them. I really like this place and hope the food will be better if we go back again. read more

I've been here three times now and feel that I can give a fair review at this point. Each time I've gone in I've been greeted with a smile and friendly service. It has also been kept up and cleaned every time I'm there as well. They have a lot of great options ranging from tenders to salads to sandwiches to wraps and wings. I little bit of something for everyone, including grilled chicken. There is also a wide variety of sauces for whatever you're feeling. The food comes in good sized portions and is always fresh and has good flavor. The chicken is thick and juicy, but never overly saturated in grease. A nice new place to go to for some good chicken. read more

Never heard of this place but thought I'd give it a try. Ordered the medium wings and boyfriend ordered the strips. Food came out fast and was super hot and fresh. The ranch was delicious, wasn't sure if it's house made or just regular ranch. But definitely my favorite sauce. They have tons of beer options and the desserts in a jar look delicious. Will definitely be back for more. The seating of the dinning area is a little WIERD but that's the only thing. Also they have a drive through, will have to see how the food is through there. read more

Skin wasn't thick nor crispy enough, go to Popeyes instead, the bread was weird/not good. not sure why it was inclueded

For service 1 star, the friendly cashier was sent by the "manager" wearing a red shirt in the kitchen . . . My manager said you need to pay for the extra tenders, i don't know why, but he said you need to pay for it. That's the exact words uttered by the cashier to us. We didn't order extra tenders, we were just asking for what we ordered. It was our second time here because we really like the food the last time we went a couple of days back. We decided to give it a try again, today, May 14, we ordered online around 745pm, decided to eat in. We ordered 3 chicken and waffles, 2 grilled chicken with bbq and honey bbq, and one fried with no sauce, a couple of appetizers(fried okra and salad). Okra and salad arrived, cashier was ok, he asked if we wanted sauce and all. Then he gave us 3 waffles and 3 baskets of tenders. All with sauce, we returned and explained it, then he gave us the grilled tenders(cold, because they only sauced it). Then cashier went back and explained that we needed to pay for it. We were like . . . . well I'm sure they have their side of the story, if their system messed up our orders, so be it, we have the receipt, it just made us feel uncomfortable. Manager didn't even have the courage to talk to us and explain what happened. We finished our food, while walking out, cashier and manager was talking, didn't even bother to acknowledge us. Hey, you guys messed up and you know it, own up to it, we are not difficult customers. We still loved the food, but the whole experience was well . . . read more
