I have mixed feelings. This location just opened up so I am keeping in mind they don't have their kinks worked out yet. However, the lady taking orders was extremely unfriendly, abrupt and rude. Kind of a turn off for your first experience. We didn't wait too long for our food, maybe 10-15 minutes, however when it came to us it was cold. The chicken patty to the chicken sandwich was extremely small and didn't even provide enough meat to the bun. The wings had barely any meat and we ended up throwing most of those away. The chicken tenders were just okay, partly because they were cold. I wouldn't mind trying this place out again once they have everything worked out and hopefully some kinder employees at the front end of their business. read more

See all

This is my 2nd time trying Slim's Chickens. I would say that the food is very good. The Cayenne Ranch Chicken Sandwich is a big sandwich and pretty flavorful for fast food. Their fries have a good amount of salt and very good. Their dipping sauces are good and a lot of options which is a plus. The prices are better than most fast food. Their BBQ chicken tenders are amazing and that BBQ sauce is on another level. Lastly, Their Sweet tea unfortunately is not sweet and not good at all. I would definitely come back to get the other menu options read more

My kids really like their chicken! The kids meal are substantial My kids are 9 and 10. They love the fact that they offer fresh fries and tons of dipping sauces not to mention nice piece of toast. My husband enjoys their Cayenne chicken sandwich and I love their Belgium chicken and waffles. They are always consistent and professional. Yes they are not the fastest but I don't mind that. They do offer deals of coupons from time to time and get extra perks with their app. This place is most definitely better than Canes in our opinion! read more

I want to start off by saying I would never leave a review, but after enduring this horrific pain, I have to. I ate at Slims Chicken on Friday April 1st. This was no April fools. I got food poisoning and was unable to even keep water down. Finally on Monday I went to the hospital and after several test and bags of IV fluid, they confirmed food poisoning. I hope that Slims pays attention to how they handle the food and making sure the poultry is cooked properly. I will never eat there again and just wanted to give others a warning. read more

Honestly kinda pissed. Ordered food at 9pm (an hour before closing) and no other cars in the line. Waited for 20 minutes. Came home only to find my entire order wrong. The completely wrong sandwich and sauces. I want to try them again but I was so disappointed with this one. read more

I have been here twice since they opened and I enjoyed the first time much better. Got the same 3 tender platter each time. The first visit the fries had a nice seasoning on them and the second no seasoning at all. The second vist there were about 15 loud, obnoxious high schoolers eating at the same time we were. I know this isn't the restaurants fault but it was so loud in there we almost took our food and ate in the car. Service was friendly and I like that they let you self serve your iced tea and lemomade. They says their sauces are homemade but.my husband wasn't impressed with the mango habenero or the siracha sauces. read more

Nice mason jar...oh..i can keep it? And it's full of dessert? O.k. a little more dessert and not just alot of whipped cream on top to make it look fuller than it is. read more

Slim Chickens - Chocolate mason jar dessert - Chicken Wings Near Me - Plainfield, Illinois

I have always enjoyed the food and service from Skim Chickens. Their lemonade and their dessert jars are amazing. I just wish they would find a new way to do their to go containers so the fries and chicken strips remained crispy on the drive home. read more

Our first, only & last time coming here! No one acknowledged us in the drive through so we went inside thinking the microphone was broken! Nobody said hello upon entering! There were 5 kid employees huddled in a corner laughing at customers at a table! We should've left, but it was fairly new to our area so we wanted to give it a chance. When someone finally came to take our order, they were all still laughing while we waited for our food. Unfortunately, it took several minutes & the employees were no where to be seen! We thought this was very odd for a restaurant! We asked the first person we saw behind the counter if they knew how much longer our order would take? They were carrying some type of equipment & just kept going without replying! It seems as if they forgot about our order! The person who took our order eventually brought us our bag of food & didn't even apologize for the delay! We checked our food before leaving, everything appeared to be in the bag. We chose to eat in the car instead of inside of the establishment because it was dimly lit & not clean. Napkins were on the floor & the floor was sticky. We were hopeful that our food would at least be worth the wait, but it was not! The chicken had no flavor at all & it was too greasy, even the sandwich had excess oil! Extremely disappointing experience at the Plainfield, IL location! Never again! read more

The bun for my chicken sandwich was really, really stale and should have been thrown out a week ago. The chicken on the sandwich was OK, but not even as good as a Popeyes, Chik-Fil-A, or other fast food chicken sandwich. Fries were good. Won't be coming here again. read more

Not nearly as good as the other chicken restaurants in the area. The sides would be good if they took care to cook them longer.

Went there for the first time today for linch. The place was very busy on the inside as well as the drive through. We were there at 1245 on a Thursday so no surprises in that category. Our plan was to eat inside facility and we were lucky to have found a booth open. Only that booth and one more table were available The wife and I ordered the 5 piece chicken tender lunch with fries and slaw as sides. You pay extra for all your sides. The cole slaw was the largest portion I have ever experienced. The fries were fresh and hot. The chicken tenders were large, hot and moist The manager took the time to go to each table and chat with the customers which I thought was a nice touch. Plenty of parking. Would work well with kids. Competitively priced. Personnel seen cleaning up around tables etc constantly and in spite of being very busy the food came out piping hot and quick enough. About 8 minutes after ordering If you are a fan of fast food chicken then check this place out. You may find it an enjoyable experience Only reason why I gave four stars is because the chicken itself, though good, did not set itself apart from the fried chicken crowd read more

I am a first time customer and I will definitely be a repeat customer. I like the meal offerings of tenders and wings. The chicken wings and tenders are delicious as well the sides of coleslaw and potato salad. I also love the peach and raspberry teas. The dining area has a nice decor and vibe, the big screen TVs are a added bonus. I haven't tried all of the menu items but will soon. The employees are very friendly especially Dovantae who gave superb customer service and was very helpful in answering my questions about the food items and the restaurant. read more

Man where do I start! I'm a regular lol just want to talk about their slim salad. So good! They put onion rings inside which I was like why at first but now it's such a great touch to it! And if your a ranch lover it goes great with this salad. Their ranch is phenomenal. Their chicken is fresh and tastes great! I did get a cayenne chicken sandwich for free for downloading their app which I wasn't too found of. But their salads are great, their potatoe salad is something to talk about as well! So good! I just love this place. And the ppl are very nice there as well. You may wait a lil longer then usual when waiting for food but it's worth it! read more

I have been there three times. The food is great I really like the slim sauce. The floor has a coating on it that can be slippery read more

I like the food - when they get my order right. I've had my order wrong three times from the drive through. The bigger problem is the store is always VERY dirty. Even the number signs for your table are disgusting. If the dining room is like that, imagine the kitchen!! read more

New Management?? Same problems. Floor is still crazy slippery (they must not clean it - slippery from the grease). Big weekend with a band - but two drinks were out or out of order. Table was filthy when we sat down. Same attitude from seemingly everyone that works here. Food is medicore at best - and unreasonably expensive. We tried again - but will not be back. read more

I was the only one in the drive thru. Took over 15 minutes to get my food. Drove 5 minutes away to work, pulled out my food and fries were cold. Chicken was luke warm at best. I am use to the wait but when I have to wait and then don't get hot food. This will probably be the last time I go here read more

What is the point of curbside service when you make someone sit out there for 15+ minutes waiting on your food just to call and for them to say you have to come in and grab it. It wasn't even lunch rush, in the time I was waiting only 1 car came through the drive thru. read more

Always wanted to try this place. I will never go back. I waited over 30 minutes in the drive thru for my order - 4 piece chicken tender. First & last time. read more

Got tenders and wings. Tenders were OK but Cane's are way better. Wings were straight up nasty, rubbery. Gross. Not worth close to $15

Popeye's who? Forget that sandwich Slim Chickens is where it's at! Yum!! I've only been there once so far. But it was really good. Will definitely go back! read more

The tenders and waffle were decent. Different option from most nearby competitors. Waffle was my favorite part as seemed to be made when ordered. read more

Not for us.. for what you get very over priced. We tried this place twice. We waited a long time and it was dead. The chicken tenders were way too chewy and tasted too bland/cold. Both the times the chicken was not cooked right. The fries were really bad as well.. not a good flavor & just too old not even fresh. The toast..well that's all it is. Not even Texas Toast but plain ol toast that's bland. Do not agree with the other reviewer at all. The only thing I thought was ok was the chocolate jar dessert. Raising Cane's, Chick Fil A, Popeyes, and KFC beats them for sure in our opinion! Won't waste our money again. read more

This exactly what what this chicken should be called, slim. Ain't no chicken on them bones. What a rip off

It's no wonder nobody is ever there. I've tried this place 3 different times over the last 3 years (shame on me), hoping they would get better. They've gotten worse every time. Everything always tastes like it's been cooked and sitting around for hours. The only thing they used to not mess uo was the toast and even that is garbage now. Lesson learned, will never go back again. read more

My wife and I stopped in for lunch for the first time. We were greeted as soon as we came into the restaurant. We each ordered the 4 piece chicken tender meal with fries. I asked for the fries to be cooked extra crispy. No sooner had we filled our drinks and got to our table, the server was right behind us with our orders! (HOW DID THE COOK THIS TO ORDER SO FAST?) The chicken tenders were very tasty and hot however the fries were lukewarm. The floors were very greasy giving the restaurant the appearance of being dirty. Bathroom was ok. I should have checked YELP before I went in. This restaurant has a total of 22 - 1 star ratings with similar issues of what I experienced. (lukewarm fries, dirty floors.) I gave it a 3 star rating because the chicken tenders and dipping sauce (cayenne ranch) were quite good! I don't anticipate returning until I see improvement in their ratings. read more

Not super good and it is basically just like a rip off of Raising Canes but I do recommend if your super hungry

We eat here about once a month. Food is always delicious. Prices are reasonable. The staff welcoming and place is clean.

Ok!! This place is awesome!! Totally worth trying. The cayenne ranch chicken sandwich is the best fast food chicken sandwich I've ever tasted!!! Plus, the drive thru attendant, Brandon, gave the best drive thru experience we have ever had. Kudos slim chickens, you just beat out Popeyes, raising Cane's, and KFC and maybe even Chik fil A. We will be back! read more

I want to like this place but it's nothing special. I don't see them lasting unless they develop a taste that makes them special

Very good chicken tenders and fries. We live a few minutes from this location and it satisfies our taste for fried chicken once or month. North Plainfield needed a chicken restaurant with a good price point, and this is it. We have noticed that the tenders have decreased in size and that the breading seasoning seems to be less flavorful since we started going there six months ago, but it's not a dealbreaker. My only suggestion regarding service is that the drive through speaker makes the employees difficult to understand. Or maybe they are talking to closely to the microphone. All in all, a good place for a quick meal and is much better quality and flavor of chicken than they competitor next door. read more

Really wanted to like this place. All i have to say is gross!!! Be careful when you walk in as the entire restaurant floor is greasy from staff walking out from kitchen. I hate to say this but I have had better chicken come out of Seven11. Total let down. Sorry Slim. read more

Stopped here after work and won't be coming back. Chicken tenders were ok. For the price of $6.99 you get foyr small pieces of chicken,fries and toast. Not worth it. read more

Lots of potential with decent quality chicken and unique dipping sauces. The service, however, is terrible. I get that it's mostly likely the first job for some of these teenagers but they should have some guidance for basic customer service. read more

This place is horrible! I must have repeated my order 5 times, they read it back to me and it was still wrong when I got home. Food was cold, and the drinks were not full. Chicken is not even good. Don't waste your money or calories, go to Chick-fil-a read more

Everyone always says Chick-fil-a has the nicest chicken staff around but this place is genuinely awesome. I take my sons here every Sunday for the kids deals and the crew is always so nice. One employee (Mike) i always see and is super nice and courteous, everyone else I have dealt with has also given me a very pleasant experience. with many a chicken based menu options and sauces to choose from, its safe to say Slim Chickens will be on my Sunday menu for a long time. read more

New chicken spot. It has been open 2 weeks still adjusting. Friday nite 7:30p. Saw the drive thru decided to try inside. Tight quarters. The entrance and restroom are too close to the front counter. The dining area has maybe 15 - 20 tables/booths. Maegan at the register was very helpful & informative. Nice variety of chicken options & several sauces, as well. Food came out relatively quickly. It was hot and fresh. I ordered 5 wings & 5 tenders. Tenders had flavor they were not bland. Not complaining, but yes wings could use some more meat. Had the mac 'n cheese. It was ok. The toast/bread should be changed or done w/o. I overall had nice experience will try again in a few months. read more

Mannnnnnn the first damn time I go there i ordered a chicken wrap and there's a big ass hair in the food and I showed them and the manager didn't believe me mannn y'all some hoes read more

Great food and service! I was very impressed by the young workers. They are very polite, tentative to customer needs and were quick to keep the dining area clean/stocked. Will definitely be back. :) read more
