If you're rolling through Forest City with a craving for comfort food done right, Slim's is exactly…read morewhere you want to land. From the moment you walk in, you get that "you're among friends" vibe--no fuss, no frills, just genuinely good food and genuinely good people serving it. The menu hits all the classics, but everything comes out tasting like someone in the kitchen still believes in doing things the old-fashioned way: hot, fresh, flavorful, and without any shortcuts. The burgers are juicy, the fries are crisp and addictive, and the portion sizes are generous enough that you leave full but still thinking about what you'll order next time. Service is quick, friendly, and attentive in that small-town way that feels effortless. You can tell the locals love this place--and after one visit, it's easy to see why. Slim's is one of those spots that proves great meals don't need to be complicated, just made with care. Whether you're a traveler, a regular, or a hungry geocacher between finds, Slim's is the kind of place you'll be glad you stopped at. Highly recommended!

When the waitress checked back I opted for their hand pressed burger that comes with lettuce and tomato and a pickle spear on the side, plus a side of your choice. I added cheese to the burger for a $1 up charge and chose fries for my side item. I was pleasantly surprised this time that the ambiance was not so loud that people would have to yell to talk with one another, it was at a normal restaurant range with the occasional loud laugh or child, but pleasant. My food came within a reasonable time and tasted really good. The waitress checked on me several times and provided refills and the check promptly. For all the above I would have to recommend. However, the cost was $16 and change for cash or $17 with a card (not including a tip). I know that prices are higher on everything, but this is a little much for what I had. And if I had know ahead of time they didn't have Gyros anymore I would have gone somewhere else with as good if not better burgers for a better price.

Once seated our waitress took our order. All 3 of us got the fried chicken. They brought out hamburger buns that were toasted nothing on them I guess for our bread with our meal. The chicken was supposed to be a 1/2 a chicken but when it came out the chicken must have died of starvation, the pieces were small ,dry and almost tasted like the frozen chicken. You buy in the store that comes boxed, just not what we have had other places. None of us enjoyed it, they were busy so we just wanted to eat and leave. This is a local place, and no decor very plain inside. I think this place has been here a long time, I was a bit surprised at the reviews because it was not that good, I think all 3 of us will pass on this place.

If comfort food and good vibes ever had a rowdy little love child, its name would be Hoot Nannie…read more From the moment we walked in, it felt like stepping straight into the coziest Southern restaurant/bar if that grandma also had a killer playlist, a sassy sense of humor, and a talent for feeding people until they're blissfully immobile. The food? Spectacular. Every plate that came out looked like it had been handcrafted by angels who apprenticed in a BBQ smokehouse. The portions were the perfect mix of generous and "you're definitely taking leftovers home and happily eating them cold at midnight." And the flavors? Mercy. One bite in and you're suddenly questioning why you ever wasted calories anywhere else. The staff deserves special mention (Jada) friendly, hilarious, and quicker than a hummingbird after a double espresso. They made the whole meal feel like a celebration, even though all we celebrated was how fast we could inhale dinner. Whether you're craving hearty home cooking, a place to laugh with friends, or just a restaurant with a name that's as fun to say as it is to eat at, Hoot Nannie absolutely delivers. Five stars, two thumbs up, and one very happy, very full customer.

I had the trout fillet (I had mine grilled instead of blackened and it was moist and flavorful. It came with two sides. I chose broccolini (was a bit under cooked to me) and tasty sweet potato waffle fries (generous portion) which came with an unusual but good dip. Hubby had the soup of the day and the chicken salad. It was delicious as always. It's offered with pita wedges or sliced cucumber, or 1/2 and 1/2. We like the 1/2 and 1/2 option. It was quiet and we had an enjoyable meal. I'm sure we will be returning often. Our server was friendly, helpful, and gave about the right amount of attention and service.

We'll and its not cheap, when you pay $24 for shrimp and grits you dont expect to have to season it at the table and mash the chalky lumps out with your fork. Maybe I'm just not a southern gal, but pulling the heads off my shrimp and getting one too many little tentacles thingies stuck in my teeth sort of took the shine off. The fried green tomatoes look pretty, the batter tastes of absolutely nothing; all the flavors in the sauce. We had a nice time though and I'll always give local businesses a go over the faceless big box. Maybe someone will read this and give the chef back his salt?

We started with appetizers - the spring rolls were hot, fresh, and crispy and the sauce was delightful. The Curry Puffs - delicious, a sweet/savory combo that left us wanting more. The Yum Nua - had a spicy lime dressing, nice kick of heat and just an explosion of flavors on your taste buds. We got the chicken Pad Thai as the main and again, delightfully delicious. We went on a Saturday about 5, the place was busy and buzzing and the servers were working quickly, our food came out quick, hot and with a smile. You can tell the family takes pride in their presentation, flavors and overall service - we cant wait to go back and try more!

The special comes with 2 pieces of boneless fried chicken breasts, 2 sides, and your choice of a roll or cornbread. However, if that is too much food and you don't want leftovers, you can ask for a 1 piece special as well, like I did tonight. I paired it with fried squash (with ranch), broccoli casserole, and a roll. The service is always great. They check on you and keep your beverage filled (for me that is a Jumbo unsweet tea). Sadly they are only open weekdays. But go check them out, they have different daily specials each day of the week.

The menu reflects the extra charges for dressing or sauces if you want it. The inside is the same as it was, nothing fancy inside. The waitresses all seemed helpful. We tried the chicken wings they were good. The baked spaghetti is almost $10 and you get a small plate and piece of garlic bread and a salad. I tried the ham & cheese sandwich. It was ok, .over all the food was better than we remembered from the last time we went. Ice tea was $3.00 a cup and they serve it in a Styrofoam cup. I think we might go back again and try something else or get some more wings. The blue cheese was good. Glad they are waiting on tables again.
