    4 Fried Tenders, Texas Toast and Mac N Cheese
    Cindy S.

    We have been to this location several times. We mostly use the drive thru but have been inside the restaurant as well. The times I've gone inside, the restaurant has been clean and provides ample seating. There is also outdoor seating. I've always received friendly service at this location. My husband likes to order the Chicken Sandwich and I usually order the Classic Meal Combo with fried tenders. It comes with 4 tenders, Texas Toast, 1 side, a dipping sauce and a drink. You can also order grilled tenders - I prefer the fried. I've tried their fries, fried pickles and Mac n cheese, which have all been tasty. The tenders have always been juicy and I enjoy the garlic parmesan dipping sauce. And for a special treat the Cherry Cheesecake Jar Dessert is super yummy!

    This is is the chicks meal plus a side order of extra tenders

    Food was much better we've come here several times sometimes the chicken has been tough in the past tonight. Everything tasted really good. And hot We substituted French fries for fried okra. The okra was tasty though. I think they could've cooked it just a tad longer because some pieces were not quite done. . The Texas toast was very good and we had a Dr Pepper. I shared the meal with my husband. Everything in our meal was included. We didn't have to pay extra for sauce or our drink so that's nice. Some places charge extra for those items. Our server at the cash register was pleasant. However, I was kind of bummed that no one came and walked around and checked to see if we needed anything or greatest cause that normally happens and it didn't tonight. I just like that personal touch that we normally get here. Overall, we had a good meal and a good time .

    I was looking forward to this but the chicken was sooo dry and tasted like freezer burn. It looked like it had been left out for a day. Fries was very salty too. Overall definitely needs to review and improve.

    My husband and I are so sad that SuperChix closed. When it was open, it was hands down our favorite chicken strips shop. We tried Slim Chickens when it first opened, and it was just OK. Now that the crowds have lessened and the training of the teams has improved, they are now four stars to me. The chicken and the fries are tasty, and the team members do a more regular job of cleaning the tables in between customers. The young people who work here are friendly and provide good service. Downsides: I don't find either their cole slaw or potato salad tasty. They have a ton of dipping sauces, but the only place they are listed in the store is on the wall behind the cashiers, and you have to choose right when you order. I really miss that with SuperChix, you could pour your own little containers of the sauce and try many of them.

    Tender Mac & Cheese Bowl Meal

    I was excited to see another option in the fried chicken genre as I'm still missing my favorite fast food chicken place from the Bay Area (Starbird how I love you!!) We came for lunch and tried a variety of things. We got Mac bowls with tenders and Texas toast, tenders and fries and a cayenne ranch chicken sandwich. The restaurant was super bright and clean and all utensils, napkins and drinks were easy to access. Service was friendly and fast. Sadly all the chicken was overcooked and quite dry. My sandwich didn't appear to have a hint of spice to it Kids enjoyed the Mac and the fries were just ok. Based on how quickly we got our food I think the chicken had been cooked ahead of our arrival. Bummed. Hope to try again with better results but it's not likely given that there's other tastier options in the area (basak chicken, popeye's)

    11/30/24 Just heard our neighborhood will be getting a Slim Chickens (early next year).. Wanted to explore the menu -since we were in the area- Very nice drive thru- Menu it's plenty of options- Went with two Slim meals-$27 Service was friendly- Nicely packaged with fries and toast.. Plenty of bbq sauce- given and very tasty- Taste: not too flavorful and a little bland- I'm a coleslaw girl and no coleslaw with the meal. Willing to give it another shot when they open in South Reno..

    This location is fairly new and easy access in and out. The restaurant was very clean and had that fresh new look. I was greeted upon arrival and the gentleman took my order with ease. There is adequate space for dining in with additional outdoor seating. I was given a number and the order taker brought my meal to my table in just a couple of minutes. I ordered the tender and wing combo. I switched my side from fries to fried okra. Being from the south I love fried okra and it was not disappointing. The okra was crisp and hot on the inside with the right amount of breading. The tenders were equally delicious and served with dipping sauces, Cayenne Ranch and Blue Cheese. The only down side were the wings. They were not good and this is my second time to try them. All wings no drumsticks and the meat was dry and the crust soggy and not much flavor. I recommend going for the tenders and the sides. My wife loves their sandwiches too. It's a great place for family dining with lots of choices.

    Fast service, I think I waited 5 min at most. The chicken sandwich was great and fries were a good portion. The flavor was comparable to other chicken sandwiches, but I like the options of sauces here. Very clean establishment with outside seating. The downside I found was the size of the chicken tenders, they're a bit small for the price compared to other places. I would come again for their chicken sandwiches.

    Slims Wrap Meal

    This was so much fun. A group of us from school went. I got the wrap, which was so good and it came with fries and a drink. It was clean and the staff was friendly. It was a little busy, but everyone got their food in a timely manner.

    Classic Meal
    Alexandra G.

    Came through the drive thru the other day - outdoor is very clean but can't speak for the inside since we didn't go in. Employee was friendly and patient as I have never been there before. I ordered the classic meal with sweet tea for myself and the tender kids meal for my kid. The chicken was okay, very bland. I got the garlic parmesan sauce on the side to try it before shaking it with the tenders, and so glad I did. That sauce is rancid. So gross, I don't even have words to explain it. Fries were limp and soggy, and so was the toast. We also ordered the Mac and cheese to share, and that was decent. $24 for everything and it was super disappointing.

    I just moved here from California and thought I'd give this place a try. It's so delicious! The staff is always very friendly and it's pretty clean inside. Compared to Raising Canes, the pricing is way better which is a huge plus! I love all the different sauce options. Overall, very yummy!

    Fried chicken is one of my comfort foods, so when we were at the Galleria, we decided to check out Slim Chickens. We like to split meals, so we ordered a Hungry Meal ($14.49) with seven tenders, Texas toast, fried okra, garlic parmesan sauce, and slim sauce. We also got a side of fried mushrooms ($5.69). They have both indoor and outdoor seating, with plenty of room for large groups. Everything was clean, and the staff was cheerful, checking on us several times. There are lots of fountain drink options, and I tried their lemonade, which had just the right balance of sweet and tart. Our food arrived quickly and was piping hot. The chicken was crispy and hot, and though the pieces were a bit small, they added an extra one to make up for it. The sauces we ordered were pretty basic, but when we asked to try some different ones, they happily obliged. All of them were tasty and complemented the chicken well. The fried okra and mushrooms had a delicious coating and weren't greasy at all. Overall, it was a great experience with friendly and attentive service. We'll definitely check them out next time we're in the area.

    I really wanted to love this place. I had high hopes for some good Southern comfort food, and while…read morethere were definitely some positives, the food just didn't do it for me. First, the good stuff...the staff was super friendly, the country-style decor is fun, and I love the rocking chairs out front. There's plenty of seating, the prices are reasonable with options starting around $8, and they have some great deals. We were also given complimentary biscuits and gravy before our meal, kind of like getting chips and salsa at a Mexican restaurant, which I thought was a nice touch. Unfortunately, the biscuits and gravy were a miss. The biscuits were hard, dry, and pretty flavorless, and the gravy didn't have much flavor either. I added quite a bit of salt and pepper, but it didn't help much. I ended up scraping off the gravy and adding honey to the biscuit just to make it edible. I ordered the Sausage Hashbrown Casserole, which looked SO pretty when it came out. Unfortunately, it was another flavor disappointment. I couldn't really taste the different layers, except for the occasional bite of onion. I ended up eating mostly the hashbrown layer on the bottom. The surprise highlight was the Loaded Tater Tots! Crispy on the outside, warm and melty inside, and perfectly seasoned. The only downside was that the cheese wasn't actually melted. It looked like it had just been sprinkled on top. Since you pay extra for the cheese and bacon, I would have liked to see everything melted together. Overall, I think I'd give it another chance, but I'd probably skip breakfast and try something from the lunch or dinner menu or skip the meals all together and just order the tots! I think the experience has a lot of potential, but unfortunately the food didn't live up to the Southern comfort food I was hoping for.

I chose a platter with three ribs, hot link, cornbread, and for my sides, I chose their "porky beans", and coleslaw. Everything was amazing The ribs were succulent, and fall off the bone, tender, and the barbecue sauce was rich and tangy. The hot link had a good flavor, and had just enough of a "zip" to it, that got my attention. There was a good amount of pork in the beans, and I'm not sure what was in the sauce, but it was rich and delicious. The coleslaw was nicely, dressed with a little bit of pepper in it. The cornbread had just a little bit of a "sweet" to it, which I really like. It was also very tender. It didn't need any butter, or anything. This amazing meal, they only charged me 20 bucks. Worth every penny! Next time, I want to head into the restaurant to try some more of their offerings. Thanks for a great meal.

(For reference, I'll return to a restaurant I rate a 4 but I won't return to a restaurant I rated a 3 unless someone I'm with wants to go to it). Here's what they do well: exceptionally good and friendly service, the portions are extremely generous given the already great prices, homemade flour tortillas, smooth horchata, great guac (finely diced onion and tomato in it), delicious bean and cheese burrito with great umami (love when it's salty and richly flavorful), being able to view the kitchen in action (people pay a lot of money for those teppanyaki show style dinners! lol), and frankly because they were already rated so high I figured the Yelp community can't be wrong! Here's what was less than impressive on my visit in late August 2026: my huevos rancheros sauce was bland. I could sense there was a hint of chicken bullion in the background but for the most part I felt like I was eating watered down canned tomato sauce that had been thickened with cornstarch and had a pinch of bullion. I was hoping for some acidity, some cumin, some spice-- something! But it just fell flat. I was also disappointed that there was essentially bits of raw bell pepper just thrown on top. In addition, I personally don't mind their deteriorating "ambiance" but I think it might matter to the average person searching reviews on Yelp so I gotta tell ya, it's rough inside; I'm talking exposed wood in the countertop, cracked and peeling barstool cushions (all they have is barstool seating by the way, but there's plenty of seats and they are lined up around a long counter that faces the kitchen). Now, I can't end with that for a "4" so do let me remind you of some of the good: great prices, good portions, friendly service, and lots of yelpers appear to rate them highly. My recommendation, perhaps try a burrito-- the simple bean and cheese burrito my daughter got (that I took a bite of) was fantastic.

Unlike another place I've been to, this place was smoke forward and that's the vibe I like. Not bitter, but a good smoke. The pulled pork was out of this world and the ribs were just about perfect. Not fall off the bone but a great clean bite through. I know, I know everyone wants fall off the bone but hear me out, THAT'S JUST OVERCOOKED! Now let's talk about this sausage.
