    Cool hot chicken joint with a modern vibe and cool art around the restaurant. The cashier that took my order was extremely nice and gave me one of those vibrating pagers to pick up my order when it was ready. There was also another young woman walking around the restaurant keeping the tables clean and checking up with customers. As for the chicken; it was epic. Extremely flavorful with huge chicken tenders. I got the second spiciest, extra hot, which was perfect. The next and hottest level of. spice is called "reaper" and I'll probably try that next time. Highly recommend.

    Trendy spot in the area ! It was pretty empty when we went but it's so much space inside to enjoy with your family . There is also seating outside . Both cashiers were friendly and explained spice levels to me before ordering. You are given a little device when your food is ready which I like! The medium was still a little spicy but not terrible so I can only imagine how the hot taste ! Fries were seasoned well ! Overall will definitely come back to try other things like the slushies and milkshake!

    This location just opened a few weeks ago so I had to give it a try. I had heard nothing but good things and it did not disappoint. Went through the drive through (which was very long) and could see that the inside was packed. The food was OUTSTANDING. I got mild and it wasn't spicy at all which I didn't expect it to be since that is lower on their spice meter. Fries were delicious, sauce was awesome. Definitely recommend

    What a great find! We ordered online while heading south on 95 and out the time we would be…read moreswinging by for pick up. It was GREAT! Food was ready for us and hot! We tried a few different things to get a feel for this place. Mac n cheese was very cheesy and what you'd expect from fast food - so thumbs up! The Fried mushrooms and the garlic parm dipping sauce was a great match! Button mushrooms were fresh and juicy! The Cayenne Chicken Ran h sandwiches were cooked nicely - had one who added Monterey Jack, one tossed in parm/garlic sauce and one with no bun with honey bbq. All great choices and happy peeps! Lastly we had chicken tender plate with pickles and some fries....all good! Nice change from zaxbys and Chik fil a ....worth a stop at this chain/city! Clean facility and kind staff! We will come back next road trip!

    A fantastic change to the regular fast food restaurants around Florence. I had heard of Slim…read moreChickens but hadn't visited one until they opened in Florence. It's a cool looking place with some nostalgic photos around the restaurant. After you place your order, they will give you a number to put on your table and bring your food to you. The only thing I've had hear is the Cayenne Ranch Chicken. It is one of the best fast food chicken sandwiches I've had. Crispy, juicy, big, and just a twang of heat. Definitely a good spot to check out.

    We got the crab cake platter, blackened catfish platter, honey pecan chicken roll, crab cake…read moresandwich, and the white russian pecan pie. After having the crab cake sandwich we would recommend doing the platter because the bread overpowers the crab cake. Everything was incredible, the flavors, consistency, and quality. It is for sure comfort food but nothing sits heavy and feels super fresh. Not a fan of coleslaw but it was super yummy and great corn fritters for our first time having them. Service was great. Ambiance was super informal and adds to the vibe of what you're eating. Also unrelated but the cashier/server has a super calming energy/presence/voice which totally added to the vibe

    Wow, REALLY good! Catfish Dinner Plate: excellent fish was…read moretasty and light. Rice was nice. Came with slaw, 1x Side (Collard Greens: sweet vinegar with some heat, and a bit of pork, really good!), and some AMAZING Hushpuppies (fresh, sweet corn bread). Shrimp & Grits: Fantastic! Buttery and cheesy grits with sausage and nice shrimp (not over-cooked or chewy). Green beans were slightly too soft (30-mins until closing), but good comfort food. Coleslaw was "meh," but a good, crunchy foil to the fish and rice. Counter Service (order at register, then they bring to table/to-go) was quite fast, given that they had to cook the fish and prep foods for take-out. Everything looked clean, staff was nice, and owner was talking to everyone. Didn't get to try the variety of desserts, but they looked and smelled great. Traveling, but worth the stop!

It's a cute little shop, with sandwiches, cakes, dips, appetizers, all sorts of homemade goodies ready to take with you. The menu also has a selection of casseroles, lunches and dinners. The cakes are HUGE! We settled on buying a red velvet cake. It was a bit pricey at $32 BUT it was so dang heavy, we asked if it was perhaps frozen?? It wasn't. While checking out, the lovely people behind the counter offered us a sample of the chicken salad. To me, chicken salad is good, but I can't say I've ever had chicken salad that blew my socks off... UNTIL THEN! Mmmmmm it was VERY good. It's been months and I still remember how incredibly tasty the chicken salad tasted. I'll be honest, I didn't say anything, but I'm hit or miss when it comes to red velvet so I was hesitant. Sometimes red velvet can taste bitter or just not good. My friend really wanted that one so I kept quiet. Boy am I glad I did! It was literally the most amazing red velvet cake I've ever tried. It's VERY rich so a small slice will do you (which means the cake will feed more!). Even as rich as it was, I was like a crackhead, wanting just a bit more. Since my friend lives solo, she insisted I take some cake with me. I should have taken more!!! I try not to live life with regrets, but that's one regret for 2015. :( My daughter will tell you she does NOT like red velvet. I forced her to close her eyes, and take a bite. She LOVED it! She scarfed down the slice I brought for her and wanted more. As I mentioned earlier, this was months ago and I still think about how great the cake and chicken salad tasted. I was shocked to see Kaleen's hadn't been created on Yelp yet! If you're anywhere nearby, STOP AT KALEEN'S! Totally worth it.
