    Since BWW moved in down the street it's easier to compare these two wing joints. My verdict: Slim Chickens has a superior product. BWW is a better choice if you're looking to park in front of 35 televisions for 2 or more hours, pound down some cheap watered down beer or play some trivia, but if you're after good wings then Slim Chickens should be your destination. I love spicy food and Slim's inferno wings are awesome. Nice and tasty with a high amount of heat, but not so hot that you can't enjoy them. And as for chicken strips, these strips are outstanding as well. I will never understand why there always seems to be a line at the Chik-Fil-A drive thru 10 cars deep. Slim's is better than anything they have to offer, and without the bigoted overtones one associates with CFA. The SE Norman location might be a little off the beaten path as restaurants go, but that seems to be changing a little with the addition of the BWW down the street.

    Watched Good Mythical Morning (blind tender taste testing) and had to go around Norman/Moore/OKC and try out some local chicken spots to see how their tenders all fare. Tried the Slim Meal - 5pc, Fries, Toast, 2 sauces, and a medium drink. ($8.69) Let's start with the tenders: Moistness - 5 (more greasy than juicy but not dry) Seasoning - 5 (over seasoned if you planned on using sauces) Crunch - 3 (sometimes there, sometimes nonexistent) Overall - 4.33 The tenders were better than I had at KFC but not by much. The temperature wasn't very consistent. Some were just warm and others were piping hot, but the temperature didn't alter the flavor or texture of these tenders. The heat was mostly due to some pockets of hot grease rather than radiant steam and heat. These tenders were a bit confusing since I wasn't sure if they were designed for use with sauce or if they were intended to be eaten on their own. DQ and other spots offer gravy as an accompaniment but I feel like the light corn-mealy breading meant these tenders were designed to be tossed or coated in sauces. However, the amount of seasoning on each of these tenders was conflicting since they would have been overly salty given some sauces (like a buffalo). The texture of the tenders was more rubbery in some bites but never dry or mushy. They kind of tasted like they had been brined for a while or maybe frozen. The sriracha garlic sauce was a home run and definitely the star of the show. The toast was regular white bread (not the thick Texas toast) and didn't have that rich buttery goodness that you might expect. The fries tasted like they had a combination of Lawry's Season all and garlic salt and they were crispy but nothing special. The staff was friendly and attentive. They asked how everything was but I wanted to post the review as is without any possible intervention.

    I love their salad!

    So fresh and close to the house. I've been going here since it has opened, but it keeps getting more and more popular. The salad is my absolutely favorite salad in town. The greens are fresh and veggies good. Throw some chicken and ranch dressing on there and perfect! I even splurged one night on a fried pie, and it was good. Took a while to get, so haven't ordered one since. But enjoyed it!

    Overpriced. Overrated. And my chicken strip was severely undercooked. There are a multitude of better fried chicken options in Norman.

There's a large outdoor space with picnic tables and huge indoor space. The staff was great, one gentleman in particular who was getting things set up for a private party. As I mentioned, we chose to come to The Standard specifically because they had actual food (vs just snack food like many breweries). Unfortunately, we arrived when the kitchen had closed to prep for the aforementioned private party. This meant a significant wait to even place an order for food. We tried to wait, but this was going to be a deal breaker for me; I was starting to feel ill from no food and beer tasting on empty stomach. Fortunately someone (owner? manager? or their best, kindest employee, I don't know), helped me out. I am so grateful. We stayed, and once the kitchen opened back up, my husband and son also ordered food -- the chicken and waffles were awesome. If we were locals, I imagine we'd enjoy many afternoons at the beer garden.

Here's the sitch with this one: Pros- the woman that worked the register the day I went in was SUPER nice. She seemed knowledgeable and efficient as well. I gave a rather tedious order, and she took it down without a sweat. The food took a while, but it's always fried fresh, so I won't ever really complain about the wait time. And my order was correct (though I did order in person), with everything looking up to standard (good amount of fries, sauce inside, right amount of wings, etc.). Con- the only con I had was the level of doneness on my wings. I'd asked for them to be double-fried/well-done, but it felt like they were only fried once. You know how the skin can get soft and feel gummy? It was kind of like that, and it kind of got to me after a while. Had to pick off bits of skin that were just too... gummy. All in all though, I'd definitely go back. Mango habanero is just too good to resist!
