    The beef cake ambassador strikes again I don't even come here to eat anymore, I show up just to witness Carter, a man built like a rotisserie chicken's final boss, handing out meals like he's assigning side quests he passed me my order and my drink started blushing, my fries stood at attention, and the bag felt heavier like it absorbed some of his muscle mass through osmosis, because Carter isn't an employee, he's a walking protein commercial. Also doctor pepper is out what a shame

    Wings & fries  Also ordered chicken & waffles which was yummy and affordable!

    Service was friendly and fast! Great but simple menu. Clean and FUN! Milkshake was thick and tasty!

    Chicken strip meal with a chocolate shake

    The verdict is still out on Slim Chickens as it was good. Tasty chicken strips, fries, and a chocolate shake. Smaller portions than the competition and more expensive. Not ruling it out just yet....

    Chicken Club Sandwich Meal
    Judy S.

    Decided to try out the new guy in the South part of town-Slim Chickens. Decided to do a quick drive thru for lunch. Love that they have a sign with a QR code so I could pruse the menu before getting up to the order window. Decided on a chicken club meal and a cayenne ranch Sando meal. The cayenne Sammy needed to be "dressed" when we got home (added tomato and cheese) the chicken club had the fixings. The sandwiches were good-8/10. Will go back and try their wings.

    7/28/25- Heard the news opening day was today-.. Happy to have one in the neighborhood- Drive thru busy and one lane open/ A true Yelper- even though I had lunch I had to stop in!

    A Hungry Meal. Seven chicken tenders, Texas toast, fried okra, and fried mushrooms.
    Sandy Y.

    Lunch at the new South Reno Slim Chickens was a very nice experience. Parking is easy, and there is a drive-thru if you're in a hurry. We chose to eat inside and were greeted by the friendly staff members. Ordering is easy, and they have lots of choices. We decided to split a Hungry Meal with an extra side (because we couldn't agree on one). The meal included seven tenders, our choice of sauces, Texas toast, and a drink. We choose fried okra and fried mushrooms. The service was quick, and the food was hot, and not at all greasy. We had to wait a few minutes to let it cool, which gave us a chance to enjoy our perfectly tart lemonade. The staff came around and checked on everyone to make sure they had everything they needed. For a Quick Serve restaurant, it was very enjoyable. I recommend it when you need a quick and tasty meal.

    So.good!

    I have been to this location several times it has been consistent with its a low quality product and it's disappointment. The food here whether it's in person or drive-through seems to be overcooked and cold . The service here seems to be nonexistent. The staff here is just going through the motions. There isn't any connection or real customer service. The ambience is basic with nothing impressive or different about it. I was really disappointed, and was really looking forward to a fantastic regular spot to frequent since this is right down the street from my house. Unfortunate. .

    The Chicken Strips at Slim Chickens.
    Elizabeth S.

    To be fair, I only had the Chicken Strips (To Go), so it's the only food item I can review. The chicken was cooked well, but there really was nothing special or unique about the breading. I did like that there were alot of sauces to choose from. The Korean BBQ was good, although very sweet. I thought the staff was friendly. The young lady that took my order was especially friendly and helpful, which I appreciated as this was my first time here and not at all familiar with the menu. The restaurant looks clean and has a very nice color scheme and decor. I would definitely come back to give it a full dine-in experience.

    4 piece chicken tender meal
    Jennifer H.

    I really enjoyed the chicken tender meal. The tenders are lightly breaded cooked to order, and served with fries, toast, and a drink. This is a counter service restaurant with indoor and outdoor patio seating. After placing your order the staff will bring the food to you at your table. The dining room is pleasant with high ceilings and lots of light. Overall it's a good fast food experience. We also like the fact that the menu has lots of options.

    Grant H.

    A nice addition to the Damonte Area, with lightly breaded chicken. There are a lot of other goodies in the display case to complement your chicken. The toast was actually a nice touch with the fries. There's outdoor seating for your pets if you decide to go there after walking them in the park. Service is good, and the food is made when ordered. You should definitely check it out as there are a number of fried chicken/chicken tender places to choose from in Reno.

    Great addition to the Damonte Ranch area! Brisk business on opening day and the service team top notch. Service team kept busy making meals, cleaning dining room, delivering meals and checking on customers. Chicken sandwich came with a ranch sauce which is delicious. The Tender Mac Bowl is delicious. The addition of the chicken gave the Mac-n-cheese just the flavor boost it needed. Chicken and Waffle is good, but the waffle lacked that crunch that I was looking for. Decor is fantastic and the dining room neat and clean. Drive thru has two lanes. Outdoor patio allows for your best friend to join you for lunch or dinner.

    So this was the first time having this. In my travels I have passed the sparks one a handful of times and have said I need to try that. Well they put one closer to my hs so even better. Me and my son went to get some dinner . Was immediately greeted when walked in. Carter J who helped us get our order was amazing and attentive. The place is very clean and nice . We both got the Classic meal which comes with 4 tenders , toast , Fries and we opted for Lrg drink for the collectors cup. I believe limited time while supplies last. Plenty of options on sauces and also drinks . Soda and like 4 different Teas too. The staff was great. It didn't take long for our order either. We took food home and ate and the chicken was cooked perfectly and was tender and juicy. Toast was really good toasted just enough and buttered nice. Fries were cooked good too not soggy or over done. Everything was really good . Can't wait to try some other stuff. Glad they are in the south end of Reno close to home. Enjoy !!!!

    Slim's Meal with Fries (Regular)
    Mare H.

    We tried Slim Chickens for the first time last week and it was delicious! It was honestly better than Cane's. The dipping sauces are all great. We tried the Slim's Sauce (our favorite), Buffalo, Honey BBQ, Spicy BBQ, & Cayenne Ranch. The fries were hot and crispy even after the 10 minute drive home. We ordered and picked up in the drive-thru. It was fast and we will totally be coming back. PS...you can't go wrong with the milkshakes!

    The service was outstanding! Wings were drier than a popcorn fart. The okra was outstanding. Fries were way to salty!

    Terribly dry. I wouldn't even consider one of the tenders a tender, just breading. I won't be back.

    Went here on a recommendation from a family member. I was not disappointed…read more Located in strip mall of high end stores, this place has a prime location. You order at the counter and call your name when it's ready. Although, they brought it to my table as a courtesy. There is an old school arcade for you to enjoy while waiting. The staff is very polite and courteous. I let them know it was my first time visiting and what did they recommend. I was pointed in the direction of either The Smash Burger or The Cowboy. I ordered The Cowboy with a side of onion rings, and boy was it delicious. BBQ sauce and jalapenos, fresh lettuce and tomatoes, 1/3 lb beef patty and two strips of bacon, on a buttered bun. It was one of the best tasting burgers I've had in a long time. The onion rings were huge, but light, crispy and fresh. They offer fountain drinks with orange Fanta and Pepsi products. Orange Fanta is a favorite of mine. This is my go to burger spot when visiting Reno, from now on.

There are few things more seasonally satisfying than the cold, creamy, mint-y goodness topped with a cloud of whipped cream. I ordered through the app when I was picking up an order at CVS' drive-thru and as I drove to MacDonald's drive-thru, my order was ready. It was the height of dinner rush (around 5:30) and the long line kept moving at a good pace. All the credit goes to the efficient staff who worked diligently. Did I finish the shake by the time I got home? Yes, yes, yes, I did!

    Sadly I agree with the other reviews and share in their disappointment around the food quality and…read morecleanliness at this McDonald's. For starters, this is probably my first McDonald's food in 5 years. I came here to have some fun with my kids. They're always asking to come, and I always say no, but when they asked to go in order to see if ordering unsalted fries actually got you hotter and fresher fries, I said sure. I'm not sure if we hit this one after a big rush (330pm). We first hit the restroom and found an empty soap dispenser and the soap insert sitting on the sink counter. I walked up to the register to ask for more soap, and after a bit I got someone's attention from the back, but never heard if they'd be putting more in, so we washed with hand sanitizer. We ordered two 6pc Nugget happy meals, a large fry and a 3 piece chicken strips. The happy meals were as expected, though despite ordering milk we received juice. The meal was supposed to include a Disneyland toy, but each came with a different type of toy. My older son was going to order a regular meal and went for the happy meal because of the Disneyland toy that reminded him of the trip we just took, and when I asked for the Disney toy they said they were out. After ordering we looked for a table and I noticed that a lot of them in the dining room and the play place were very dirty. It's 420 now and I see someone cleaning the tables now. The other odd thing is that everything you need to enjoy your meal seems to be behind the counter. Ketchup is accessible but water, napkins, salt, etc must be requested, and since it seems McDonald's has gone to mobile and kiosk ordering, getting someone at the counter was quite tricky and I had to ask three different people at three different times for what we needed, like napkins. As for the food quality, the chicken nuggets were as expected and the unsalted fries were hotter and fresher and awesome. The McStrips were absolutely awful. Rubbery, not crispy, and with the same chewy texture as the nuggets, not the real chicken I was expecting. This was a huge disappointment and confirmed why I've avoided eating this stuff for so long. I had hoped in the movement toward better food, McDonald's would have been inspired and come around to offering something better, and the strips looked like they'd fit the bill. I really should've returned my food. The best part of the visit was that the ice cream machine was working, so the kids got to experience the glory of a soft serve cone! Do better for all of us. Cleaner. More care for the product served. Friendlier.
