    Tender Mac meal.
    Eduardo S.

    Great food all around! Place was nice and the staff were very welcoming. First time at the Restaurant, we wanted to try something we do not have around our home town and it didn't disappoint!

    No shaken tendies

    Asked for shaken tenders again and they didnt shake them in sauce. Pretty disappointed.

    Enclosed patio
    Kristen M.

    Since moving to NWA, Slim Chickens has become my go-to chicken place! Their chicken tenders are amazing, their wings are delicious, their fries are cooked to perfection and their Covid safety is on point! Today was the first day we have ate in the lobby of a SC in quite a while. This is because SC's has closed their lobbies when Covid cases have surged! This is a bold move, but one that surely says "we care more about our employees and customers than we do $$$". We have often grabbed takeout from SC's throughout the past few months, though. On my visit today, every single employee was masked and all of them were wearing their masks correctly. The restaurant is clean and they have employees constantly sanitizing tables as they empty! You definitely see the effort and it feels as safe as you can feel in this crazy Covid world. We chose to sit on the patio today, and SC's has patio heaters installed to make the temperature more comfortable. This patio is enclosed with garage style doors and it is mostly glass windows. This will be a great place for a quick meal in the spring! The food was great and prepared to the same consistent standards we are used to. I love that I can eat healthy at SC's. Their grilled chicken tenders are fantastic, but today I decided to grab some garlic Parmesan wings! Delicious. (If anyone from Slim Chickens reads this - please bring back the cayenne ranch dry rub for wings! Seriously the best wings I have ever had!) If I could make any suggestion to SC's, it would be these two things: 1. Frequently when grabbing drive through or curbside takeout at SC, we get home to find that the sauce has been forgotten. We now check before we leave the property. Sitting at SC's today, we saw employee have to grab forgotten sauces and drinks and run them back to out to customers. It would be great if some kind of quality check could occur before the employees run the orders. 2. When customers are sitting in the enclosed patio, don't open the garage doors to hand food to the drive through customers. The temperature immediately drops 15 degrees. This happened twice while we were sitting out there, and the temperature never recovered.

    Cayenne Ranch Chicken Sandwich Meal

    Supposed to be a cayenne ranch sandwich but has no fried onions and the lettuce is soggy. Beyond frustrating to not get the items on there that make it good! Fries had no seasoning either. Service is slow so that's not the reason for the mistake either...

    Slim's Salad with no tomatoes & grilled chicken
    Jordan A.

    I go to Slim Chickens almost once a week. I love that I know I am always going to get good food when I go there. I really like the Slim's Salad or the Chick's Plate & I get fried okra for my side. My kids love their Mac & cheese though. Two tips I have for eat at Slim Chickens are: 1. Kids eat free on Sunday's. 2. Download their app & scan every receipt so you can earn credit towards free food.

    8 wings combo with okra.
    Ebone' W.

    I stopped by this place because I wanted chicken and didn't feel like sitting at anything too too fancy one late evening after shopping. I ordered the 8 Wing combo with the side and drink. The parmesan bone-in wings were very very very good, and the sweet Thai Chili was just ok. I subbed okra for fries and the okra was actually a disappointment. Now I love okra, but this kind had absolutely too much breading, which completely turned me off, and it was not cooked hard enough as I requested. I think this is the first time I wish I would have got fries over okra...lol.. The lemonade was fresh and sweet and I was in and out the restaurant quickly, so that was a plus. Next time I won't get okra and Id try other flavor wings.

    See all

When I asked a simple question about what made the fries accompanying the ribeye "spicy," our server responded with a series of questions rather than a straightforward answer, including asking if I had issues with nightshades and what level of heat I tolerate on the Scoville scale. The interaction felt unnecessarily complicated and somewhat condescending. After checking with the kitchen, she said the fries could be made without the spice, so I ordered the dish. However, she then informed me that the ribeye itself had a chili rub, requiring another trip to the kitchen. While they ultimately said it could be prepared without the rub, I was told it would significantly delay the order. When the steak finally arrived, I was disappointed with the amount of fat on it, much more than the typical marbled ribeye. Overall, while the ambiance was enjoyable, the service created friction in what should have been a simple ordering process. A more direct and customer-friendly approach would have made a big difference. The F&B manager reached out to me through my Open Table information which I respected however, we don't plan on returning.

To start the server was smoking and came in and started serving without washing their hands. Then on a friends plate they refused to do substitutions for allergies and instead said the best they could do is not put it on their plate. They still charged for the item that they removed. None of what was previously stated even led to this review. The worst part is that there was MOLD ON THE FOOD!!! Once this was brought up the only thing they said was "we can bring you another piece". They would not consider comping even a portion of that plate. Mind you no one asked for a refund or comp at this point other than for the single item that was moldy. Overall this ended with an employee asking why my friend ate the food if it was moldy. We explained that it wasn't found until after they had ate that portion of the plate and they didn't eat any after seeing it. They proceeded to mock us after. Overall just hope that this place gets things together and a safety inspection asap. I could never imagine going back to a place that cares so little about the customers experience and quality of food.

Surprised to find a restaurant this caliber without a tasting menu however, the choices were interesting enough that we tried out these strawberry appetizer which combines in season strawberries with a tart cream sauce, and a balsamic vinaigrette, making for a sweet and sour combination The bread, butter combo was very good with the butter being infused with some heat. We went for a pretty standard selection of steak for two which was well prepared and came with a side of mushrooms and potato cakes. Honestly, the winner of the night was the wine. A nice wine list selection that included choices from California, Spain, France. We went with a rioja reserve which was a great pairing. There is no Sommelier or suggested wine pairings on the menu. The service was solid however, once the restaurant filled up, we found ourselves somewhat on our own. The dessert menu had a nice selection, but nothing that jumped out at us. Overall, a really interesting space, pleasant service, good food, great wine, and a nice evening.

It's a trash restaurant charging 5 star dining prices. They won't even plate a porterhouse steak onto two plates if you ask. Told us we needed to do it ourselves. She laughed at us and said 'he's not going to do that,' referring to the chef. All the other restaurants that serve a porterhouse do that standard because it's a massive steak that two people share, and they offer before you have to ask. Just snobby and weird attitude about certain things. They also serve a cheap version of Caymus wine, but have it priced like it's the premium version (my friend knows wine). 3.5 hours is too long to wait for a meal, especially on a weeknight when the restaurant is empty. They also didn't apologize, acted like this was completely normal, and said 'we didn't know you were in a hurry.' Really? Pay the same price and pick a legitimate high end restaurant like Sestina, Conifer, Junto, Ruth Chris, or Atlas. This place is a joke and I still get mad when I drive by. No idea how they stay in business except maybe for tourists who don't know how bad this place is until they've wasted their time and money. We need better restaurants in this area.
