Don't plan on going here again. We ordered wings, tenders, slaw, potatoes salad, chips and a vanilla shake to be delivered. Food arrived in a reasonable amount of time. Tenders and chips were good. Slaw and potatoes weren't good. Drumlletes weren't cooked all the way and we didn't get our shake. read more

juicy tenders, the chicken tasted savory (the flavor wasn't just in the skin/batter) the music was very chill. bright colors with decorations that appeal to the eye. my table looked like it hadn't been sanitized, just had the crumbs wiped off between guests. there was noticeable grease residue which was slightly unsettling. nonentheless, didn't take away too much from the experience. they have a wide variety of meals, and they even make their salads fresh which is neat. can't wait to go back and try their mason jar desserts read more

For the 3 months, I have gone here about 3 times. Each time, the wait is longer than the last. Today I waited 35+ minutes for our food. With only 3 cars in front of me, the wait should not have been that long. Canes chicken, only about 5 minutes down 64 would have been much quicker, tastier and had better, quicker potheads working in the kitchen. read more

I'm here on a Tuesday night, staff is not friendly, talking loudly and only one lady is working ( other just standing around ). I've seen guest leave because no one will wait on them. Tables are dirty and they are dragging trash cans thru the restaurant. It is a shame that this place has gone down hill FAST. When I come during lunch there is a manager figure leading the team and the experience is return worthy. What is up with the tip cup by the register??? So tacky and uncalled for. I'm tipping you for what? Please fix this @slimchickens read more

One of my favorite places to go. I love getting the Buffalo Wrap with the spinach tortilla. The Oreo cheesecake in the jar is so amazing. The staff is nice and friendly as well. 10/10 always. read more

I had ordered the wings tonight, wasn't the best I figured they could had been cooked a bit longer or Krispyer, actually I think this is the reason my stomach is hurting terribly maybe it was just really under cooked .. The fries are great as ever but next time I won't be extra and just get the tenders as I did the last time .. The tenders are great with much flavors but I'll pass on the wings next time .. Correction my stomach was hurting all night even now I had to skip work this morning I don't know if it was the chick or it just wasn't cooked well but with that being said no more Slim chicken.. I had my share read more

For this to be a fast food chicken joint, the service was really nice and the chicken was actually pretty good. Will definitely come back again with my family. read more

Advice: check your order. First time we went everything was awesome. Five stars. Great service and tasty hot food. To the point we decided to give it another try. Second time, different story. Handed the wrong order. Noticed right away it was not two meals and sent it back. Handed what looked like the right order and guess what... still wrong. Didn't notice until we got all the way home. The one thing I really wanted to eat was swapped out for fries. Lesson. Food is great. Just double check to make sure it is the right order. read more

Service sucks and is extremely slow. Everyone is extremely rude. Food is alright. It's giving McDonalds energy from the employees saying the shake machine is always down... lol cool look from the outside just crappy service and from the other reviews it seems like this is a reoccurring issue. read more

Food was actually pretty good. Got the chicken sandwich with cheese and bacon on it. Get a side of barbecue sauce to dip it in. Minus a star because they forgot a fork for mac & cheese am I supposed to eat the mac & cheese without a fork?? read more

Service was slow. Took 30 plus minutes to get our food and it wasn't busy when we walked the manager what the hold up was he got an attitude then basically threw the food at us once they did bring it out. One order was wrong after keeping us waiting for that long and the other was barely warm read more

I didn't know chicken fingers could taste this bad. The highlight was the sauce that masked how bad the chicken tasted. They were lukewarm and dry. The fries were far from crispy. At least the tea was good. When the location is so close to home, but you will drive miles to get something else. Yes, that is exactly what I will do moving forward. read more

Chicken wings are in short supply? Somebody forgot to tell these folks. Was there the first weekend they opened and the drive thru lines were wrapped around the building. Although the place was packed, the operation was quite organized and we moved through relatively quickly. Each of the drive thru team members were friendly and efficient. I like having a choice between bone-in and boneless wings. They only offer about 5 or 6 flavors in which to toss the wings and about the same number of dipping sauces, so diners aren't overwhelmed with too many choices. Since this location is about 20 minutes from my house, and sitting on the lot to eat wasn't an option, we took our food home. We had the garlic Parmesan wings with ranch chips and French fries. All of the flavors were great and the wings even had shredded Parmesan and opposed to grated, powdery cheese, so I was happy about that. I was disappointed in the homemade potato chips because they got a bit soggy during the drive home. I'll try them again when I'm able to eat them right away. The fries were the fresh cut kind with the skin. They, too, were cold and limp by the time we got home. One thing I will say, I hope in the future there will be the option to order the wings crispy (aka well done). Mine were well cooked, I just prefer a crispier skin. If this place were closer to home I'd be a regular. As it stands, I'll stop thru next time in in the area. read more

Food is terrible, service is terrible , dining room is dirty . Employees don't know how to cook everything ordered is extra greasey and salty. read more

Well slim chicken I'm a true chicken lover and I must say I don't love your chicken. Taste like something that you can make your own self when you trying to imitate a chicken sandwich from a fast food chain. I was excited because it was new and the line was wrapped around the building few times and that long wait was worth a whole lot of nothing. I don't know where you all come from, but you might want to go back to the people that love this chicken because I don't good try though. Back to Lee's I go! read more

I wouldn't really review a fast food place like this BUT: I got really severe food poisoning from eating there. As far as the food goes, it is like Canes with an expanded menu that includes wings and waffles. Not bad. I was hoping for a quick lunch but I lost a day of work instead. It was also pretty chaotic and some employees were masking and others were not. Still, the service was good when I was there. The strange thing was that the floors were slick with grease even though it is a brand new place. I am sure they will pull it together but that is just too much of a risk. read more

There is a lot of competition in the chicken fingers business, but this place I believe has topped them all. First of all, we don't have one yet in Indianapolis. I know they just opened one in West Lafayette, but I had to go to St. Louis, and I saw they had one, so I had to try it. This place is in a great location, just off I-44 and about a mile from I-64. The location was fairly clean, they were busy. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. In addition to chicken fingers, you can get chicken & waffles, I think sandwiches & chicken wings too. I got the classic meal which has four strips, fries, Texas Toast, and choice of one sauce. Now, I like Raising Canes, but my beef with them has always been the lack of choice in dipping sauces. They only have their nasty Canes Sauce & honey mustard. This place has about 15-20 choices! I got country gravy and I got an extra sauce of Honey BBQ. The chicken was seasoned perfectly and they weren't heavily breaded. The fries were perfectly cooked. The Texas Toast was nothing special, but went well with the meal. And the gravy and BBQ sauce were perfect choices. I sure hope they'll bring one to Indianapolis soon. The only reason I didn't give five stars is that the toilet flush didn't seem to work. A newer restaurant really should have an automatic flush. But everything else was outstanding! read more

The food is always great. Prices are kinda high, especially when the concept is "slim" portions. You get a ton of fries but if you get chicken fingers order more than what you think you want. They aren't just slim, but usually tiny and short too. Had an experience in the drive-through where no one would take our order even though they weren't closing anytime soon and there was a line behind us. Sat for twenty minutes and ended up leaving and going to Cane's (tastes better anyway). read more

I was able to try the grilled chicken tenders, fried tenders, and the chicken sandwich. All of it was average. The food was just plain. Like you need a sauce to eat the chicken because it doesn't have much flavor. The fries also needed more seasoning. However, my service was great. I went in so I didn't have the same issues as others. My cashier was very patient, food came out hot and fast, and everyone was friendly. The food is just basic and you can find better tenders and a chicken sandwich elsewhere. read more

Was looking for something to eat on a late lunch. I must say that the Staff taking orders were very cordial. Now the Drive-Thru system was horrific!! Two drive in lines but only one Cashier window. Which meant you have to wait for the other line also!! Took me close to 25 minutes to get my order. It's too bad since they could make many more customers happy, if only they straighten the Drive-thru mess!! They definitely need to set up a better system. They do offer online ordering which is more preferable. I ordered the Slim Salad and it was very good!! read more

First time buying this for my chicken loving honey (I'm vegetarian). He was impressed! He says the honey bbq 8 piece dinner hit the spot & the sauce was delicious! The slim sauce is yummy as well. He says he will be going back to try some of the other menu items. read more

I really want to love this place. I love spicy chicken sandwiches. The first time I went here the drive through line was super long at all times of the day. But the cayenne ranch chicken sandwich was REALLY good. Stand out. Worth the wait. The second time I ordered ahead for curbside. Got there on time. Waited at least 10 minutes. Went inside to check status. Food finally came out. They let me know their shake machine was down - substituted their weird desert cup thing instead of a shake. Not good. This last time I went it was 5pm on a Wednesday. No one in the drive through line! Odd. I waited several minutes for someone to come on the intercom. Placed the order. Paid. Waited at the window another 5min to get our food. The cayenne chicken sandwich was disgusting. Seemed like the chicken breast was fried in bad oil? Or fried and then fried again? Or over-fried? Something wrong with the taste. Nearly all crust. I barely ate half. I will never go again. I don't think they will be in business much longer. Sad. read more

Don't go here. Paid $30 for two chicken strip baskets and a kids chicken strip meal and you'd thought we ordered steak bc it took 40 minutes for us to get our food which was cold and they didn't give us ranch for one of our meals. We didn't even make a peep about it just sat quietly and respectfully. One we got our food, my husband went up to the counter to politely ask for our missing ranch and quickly got told by the worker " you have to pay for ranch" and he told her he did. Her response was one per meal but he told her one meal didn't get a ranch. Not sure if she was deaf or dumb but she just turned away. The name on the receipt was Keiterra G. There is no excuse for this behavior really unless there is some kind of disability but I think she was just being a stickler and exercise some control in the situation. I mean she took our order and brought it out- as if she probably didn't know she didn't put the ranch in one meal. Just don't waste your time or money here. They weren't even busy and couldn't handle getting a few chicken strip and fries right which are deep fried foods- no fancy culinary skills needed. No one was in drive thru, they weren't that busy and the few people there waited forever also. The bread was burnt to a crisp. No communication what so ever from the worker/s. A little curtesy or communication would have went a long way. Now, to wait 24 hours to make sure we don't have food poison. Store. #3705. Date of visit 3/23/24. We ain't from here and I'd rather scavenge for food out in the woods to visit this restaurant ever again. Update: fyi, based on other reviews, this place gate keeps their ranch lol be prepared if you need ranch, you're gonna have to fight them. We just weren't cut out for it. Lmao! Keiterra G, we hope you and your ranch have a happy life together! read more

Pretty good place. I have passed it a dozen or so times and have been meaning to check it out. The tenders were alright lacking a little flavor but they were crispy. The fries were good, but it's missing something. I'd eat here again to try it out. I was not super impressed by my first time here. read more

1 star is actually too generous for this absolutely awful establishment. You will be waiting a minimum of 30 minutes in the drive thru. Countless times these employees have forgotten a majority of my meal or have just gave me the absolutely wrong order where I had to correct them. On a few occasions the cashier at the window openly cussed to their coworkers in front of me. I have genuinely never hated a fast food restaurant more and this store puts shame to the Slims name. I downloaded Yelp solely to share my experiences here so none of you waste your time or money here. read more

They've been open for a few years now but it still feels like they are working the kinks out. Out of numerous menus items, super slow service, messed up my order, mediocre food. Keep driving south and hit CFA or Canes! read more

food was delicious, ordered for pick up for 7 people, it was ready on time and the workers were very nice

not going back. potato salad was tasteless. chicken strips were bland. forgot to add the sauces to the bag. not impressed and would not recommend read more

If I could give 0 stars, I would.incredibly slow. Went to pick up my to go order and the lobby was closed. Had to sit through the drive through for 35+ minutes to get my order that was already made. Don't think I'll be coming back. read more

Slim chickens, SLIM CHANCES I will EVER go back there. The food was cold and must be a reason for that many dipping sauces food was Blan and a little greasy. read more

Shitty ass place. Food is way overpriced, workers are screaming and slow as hell. Not coming back ever it's just a waste of money and time. Took over 15 mins to take my order and took 20 minutes to give us our food. read more

Very good chicken place. It's fast food with a place to sit. Not a full blown sit-down restaurant. We had a chicken club, chicken&waffles, and wings & tenders. Everyone was pleased! I would definitely not hesitate to return here when we are in the area again. Super friendly staff. Quick service. So glad to have them in the area! read more

Excellent Chicken at a good price. I like the rubbed spices. I am not exactly sure how they cooked the chicken fingers but they do not seem fried. Yummy read more

Listen to the reviews that say to avoid this place because it's ridiculously slow. The food would have been better if it had been fresh but was ok. The order was wrong after ordering online and confirming in person. Avoid this place until they figure out how to function. read more

The search for good fried chicken continues. So far, this place was the worst. I did use Doordash for delivery but that choice had no impact on the subpar food. Overall my chicken was dry, overcooked, and cold. The toast was burnt and the fries were also cold. It was a total waste of money. I don't have a suggestion on where to go, but I certainly have one on where not to go. read more

The sandwiches were great, but small. We got the cayenne ranch and Buffalo sandwich. Maybe 50% or 75% the size of chick fila but with better flavor. More like sliders. Stay away from the tenders, they are dry. We got almost all of the sauces and they were average. The best were cayenne ranch, sriracha garlic, and inferno. read more

Absolutely horrendous experience. My party of 2 waited an entire hour from when we got in line for the drive-thru to when we left the lot with our food. I understand that it is a relatively new establishment and it was a little busy, however 30 of the minutes we waited were spent in front of the pickup window waiting for our food while multiple cars behind us were getting their food. After the initial 15 minutes, we were notified that our order wasn't even put through into the system and had to wait while they made our order of 2 Slim Meals, a very standard order for another 15. After getting our food, we were thinking, man, this food better have been worth the hour wait, however just straight up not the case. First, there was only one sauce per meal, when we ordered 2. Second, the fries were so salty I think I developed heart problems from this one meal. Finally, I'm not sure how one messes up drinks, but the drinks tasted like warm, syrupy water instead of sweet tea and Dr Pepper. Overall, horrible experience, and I'm just praying a Zaxby's comes to St. Louis. read more

Absolute nightmare! Once you are in the drive through you are completely stuck! No way out! You are forced to sit in this insanely slow line. Absolutely ridiculous! Avoid at all costs read more

Well the line around the building is from people trying to get their money back. I had hopes but they were replaced by greasy chicken that I couldn't finish. How did this become a franchise? The service was okay not including the 35 minute wait. Management has to take read more

10 out of 10 would recommend.... going to Canes or Chick Fil A. Excellent potential with the expansive sauce selection but the execution just wasn't there. Definitely need to streamline their operations and work on staffing. The staff was nice but there was just too many of them. Huge clustercluck read more
