Watched Good Mythical Morning (blind tender taste testing) and had to go around Norman/Moore/OKC and try out some local chicken spots to see how their tenders all fare. Tried the Slim Meal - 5pc, Fries, Toast, 2 sauces, and a medium drink. ($8.69) Let's start with the tenders: Moistness - 5 (more greasy than juicy but not dry) Seasoning - 5 (over seasoned if you planned on using sauces) Crunch - 3 (sometimes there, sometimes nonexistent) Overall - 4.33 The tenders were better than I had at KFC but not by much. The temperature wasn't very consistent. Some were just warm and others were piping hot, but the temperature didn't alter the flavor or texture of these tenders. The heat was mostly due to some pockets of hot grease rather than radiant steam and heat. These tenders were a bit confusing since I wasn't sure if they were designed for use with sauce or if they were intended to be eaten on their own. DQ and other spots offer gravy as an accompaniment but I feel like the light corn-mealy breading meant these tenders were designed to be tossed or coated in sauces. However, the amount of seasoning on each of these tenders was conflicting since they would have been overly salty given some sauces (like a buffalo). The texture of the tenders was more rubbery in some bites but never dry or mushy. They kind of tasted like they had been brined for a while or maybe frozen. The sriracha garlic sauce was a home run and definitely the star of the show. The toast was regular white bread (not the thick Texas toast) and didn't have that rich buttery goodness that you might expect. The fries tasted like they had a combination of Lawry's Season all and garlic salt and they were crispy but nothing special. The staff was friendly and attentive. They asked how everything was but I wanted to post the review as is without any possible intervention.

Since BWW moved in down the street it's easier to compare these two wing joints. My verdict: Slim Chickens has a superior product. BWW is a better choice if you're looking to park in front of 35 televisions for 2 or more hours, pound down some cheap watered down beer or play some trivia, but if you're after good wings then Slim Chickens should be your destination. I love spicy food and Slim's inferno wings are awesome. Nice and tasty with a high amount of heat, but not so hot that you can't enjoy them. And as for chicken strips, these strips are outstanding as well. I will never understand why there always seems to be a line at the Chik-Fil-A drive thru 10 cars deep. Slim's is better than anything they have to offer, and without the bigoted overtones one associates with CFA. The SE Norman location might be a little off the beaten path as restaurants go, but that seems to be changing a little with the addition of the BWW down the street.

I love their salad!

Overpriced. Overrated. And my chicken strip was severely undercooked. There are a multitude of better fried chicken options in Norman.

So, im giving this awesome spot a solid 5 stars afyer just one visit. Reason being, I dont live…read morehere and consistency is very important to me. I dont if I will know if I will ever be back in a 100 mile radius of this awesomeness (which i would travel). The food is awesome and well seasoned. Chicken fried steak and pork chops, fried okra, green beans, etc. are on point. Different level type food. The service was friendly and accommodating, always checking on us without overdoing it. The vibe in there was awesome with great decor without being smuthering. If you're ever in the area, go. THIS IS NOT A PLATE BUT A SERVING PLATTER.

Was it good? Sure. Was it amazing? Naww. Chicken fried steak was solid enough, nicely breaded, just…read morethe right amount of crunchy breading, beef thin and tender enough to cut with just one hand and a fork. Cinnamon rolls are highly overrated, with too much grainy, crystalized icing,..Walmart makes better. Biscuits small-ish but pretty good, fresh and crumbly. The rest of our food was low flavor and forgettable. Baked potato only came with sour cream. Service was excellent - server outgoing, friendly and helpful. The restaurant itself is filled with odd, old and dated Americana all over the walls. Waiting area is itself the size of a small restaurant with mismatched furniture and country singer memorabilia everywhere. One of their bathrooms had a broken knob and locked a poor gal inside. Wait to be seated took for-ever, an hour on a slow day. Kendall's is just an okay place, nothing at all to warrant all of the hype. But not bad.
