Jarrod R.

Dear Slim - As a guy that's well versed in the art of chicken tender consumption, I have to say I was a little skeptical, you being the like the new kid on the block with the flashy bike and all. I was wrong with my preconceived expectations of average. Based on my first experience here I am very impressed. Your meaty and flavorful chicken tenders, in a perfectly golden fried batter, are as good as any I've had anywhere. The gravy however, was the true show stopper for me; Michael Jordan at the top of the key with the game on the line kind of situation. The gravy was thick, rich and ever so peppery. I start to salivate a little just at the thought of it. The fries are a pretty typical, good but not memorable offering with full credit for being crisp. Rounding out the tender basket is a couple of pieces of toast; a hard to go wrong, necessity for soaking up the last of the gravy. In addition to the chicken tenders, there are wings, a chicken sandwich, chicken and waffles, several wrap choices and a couple of salads. The additional side choices include mac & cheese, coleslaw, potato salad and fries. They also have fried okra, pickles and mushrooms, but they are unfortunately only available in the large size. I understand places have their policies and reasons, but personally I think it'd be a big plus to be able to order a regular size side of the fried okra. If nothing else, Slim's should make an exception for Texas. Another impressive thing about Slim's is their extensive arsenal of dipping sauces. With options of slim sauce, ranch, cayenne ranch, blue cheese, gravy, BBQ, honey BBQ, spicy BBQ, Korean BBQ, garlic Parmesan, sweet red chili, honey mustard, mango habanero, Sriracha garlic, buffalo, hot and inferno, I'm very impressed. All of the non-creamy options above are also available as sauce on the wings. The setup maybe fast food, but the food is definitely in a different category. I highly recommend the chicken tenders and gravy.

OMG. SO Much Flavor. And the service is amazing. I have actually found a reason to drive to Lubbock from Austin. First stop of the day was for just a couple cups of ice, but the girls there were so nice and it smelled so good we came back for dinner. Lezeria met us at the register and was amazingly sweet, the others were as well, suggesting for our first experience here the Buffalo Wraps -so of course it was a resounding "Yes, Please"! I had the deep fried mushrooms as a side & my compadre had the fries. Both hot, crisp, & Delish! We ended up ordering a Strawberry Salad to go since it looked so good....& even though we were stuffed after only half a wrap each (saved the rest for the trip home), there was No Way we were missing out on trying the decadent looking desserts . So good, we started googling how to get a franchise. Do yourself a favor and bring the family, you won't be disappointed. Worth the trip, worth the time, & WAY worth the $.

I had my first Chicken and Waffles. I was a bit unsure whether to try it or not. I'm glad I did. The chicken tenders was soft and a little crispy on the outside, and with the waffles and syrup it was very tasty... delicious.

I ordered for curbside pick up and arrived a few minutes early. I waited until my pickup time to call the store to tell them which spot I was parked in despite them already knowing due to me having to put my make, model, and color in when I ordered. I waited 10 minutes past my "ready" time and still hadn't been helped at all. What I don't understand is why they ask for the vehicle information if they aren't going to use it to correlate with the cameras facing the designated spots. I drove around to the drive thru where i was greeted by an employee laughing and cursing through the intercom and telling me I would have to come inside to pick up my order (what's the point in curbside then?) When I pulled up to the window the employee was very apologetic for her team members actions which shouldn't be her responsibility. Overall, this whole situation could've been avoided if there was a better system for curbside and professional employees. I spoke with the GM who said he would look into the situation... we'll see about that, he didn't seem too worried about their actions.

I've gotten both wings and chicken tenders and both have been cooked to perfection - crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. The waffle fries and onion rings have also been cooked extremely well. This is definitely one of my favorite spots in Lubbock.

As we walked in, there were 3 staff members: a lady working the register, the older Korean gentleman (the presumed heart of the restaurant), and another cook. Once we placed the order, the 2 men in the back sat up and went to the fryers immediately to lock in. Fried chicken takes its time and unlike a chain like Popeyes and KFC who can have legs, breasts, and wings ready at the drop of a hat, Kokio only makes what's needed per order. This means there is a longer wait for the food. As we sat and waited for our food, multiple to-go and presumed DoorDash drivers came in and had a similar wait to us. The time seemed to crawl as we waited, but once the order came out and I took my first bite, all was well. I ordered their Wings Plate which came with 5 wings, fries, and some coleslaw. I upgraded my fries to waffle fries for the vibes and they were worthwhile. For the wings, I got them tossed in the Honey Bee sauce. They were smooth and sweet while having a slight kick. The crisp on the chicken was insane and had an earth shattering rumble as you took a bite. It's one of those meals you go silent after your first bite and don't say anything until your last. It's one of those meals you are willing to wait over an hour for. It's one of those meals you use 20 napkins and wash your hands twice before leaving the restaurant. It's one of those meals that you dream about that night. It's one of those meals you... RIYL: A crunch at a 5.2 on the Richter scale

I had the Ribeye Steak Sandwich which was perfectly cooked to my liking! "Mooing" rare! lol. There was a generous portion of sliced steak in a soft hoagie type bun. For our drinks we had Arnold Palmers that were perfectly portioned! This is a sports type bar and grill with plenty of TV's, comfortable seating, music playing that was at a perfect level so we could actually hear ourselves talk to each other. Prices were reasonable and our server was excellent! I wish I had asked her name. She was efficient, pleasant and very helpful with our questions.

I popped in around 3 p.m. on a Tuesday and was surprised to find the place buzzing--people eating,…read moreday-drinking, working on laptops, or boldly attempting all three at once. With three folks at the bar and five tables seated, our server Mandi was absolutely owning the room. Not a hint of stress--just calm, confident, boss-babe energy. I was greeted right away, my drink showed up fast, and my food wasn't far behind. Timing? Nailed it. I ordered the Philly cheesesteak with extra cheese (because obviously) and asked for jalapeños. For my side, I went with the French fries at Mandi's recommendation--always trust the fry intel. When the food arrived, I immediately took a bite...okay, that's a lie. I took pictures first. Priorities. After my second bite, Mandi swooped in and noticed the missing jalapeños before I even said a word. She asked if I wanted them grilled and honestly? Genius. Yes. A thousand times yes. Food Review: Soft, pillowy bread. Tender, plentiful meat. Extra cheese in the exact right "this makes my heart happy" ratio. The fries were hot, crispy, and had just enough skin-on bits to feel fancy and comforting at the same time. Downright delicious. Would I go back? Absolutely.
