DATE OF VISIT: Sunday 8 May 2016 for an evening dinner. MENU: Relatively good but really needing more Vegetarian and Vegan options and for these to be clearly marked on menu. There was some sort of separate nutritional sheet which also showed Vegetarian options but it's a hassle having to look at different bits of paper and would be much more user friendly just to have Veggy dishes marked with a V on the main menu. FOOD: Sharing hummus platter starter was delicious. Superfood salad fresh and mildly flavoured whilst the beetroot and falafel burger in a bread bun was a tad mushy, bland and greasy plus the sour tasting yogurt dip/sauce it was served with didn't do much to enhance the overall flavour. Side of sweet potato fries were nice and crispy but with a weird greasy aftertaste. Portion sizes were good. DRINK: Bottle of Pinot Grigio was delightfully cold, mild and easy to drink. COST: Average with total bill of £38.85 for two people. SERVICE: Faultless, pleasant and quick. RESTAURANT DECOR/ AMBIENCE: Average, nothing special or out of the ordinary. Quite a few families with kids there when we visited. IN SUMMARY: Slim's Kitchen serve good food if a bit lacking in taste and I suspect a few dishes are not as healthy as they pertain to be since some of our food tasted quite greasy. However, it's still a reasonably good restaurant for a bite to eat, just nothing exceptional. A place claiming to be healthy also really need to offer a greater range of and more clearly marked Vegetarian and Vegan meals. I would return if friends wished to dine in Slim's however it wouldn't be my personal first choice. read more

I am vegan for April, and its working out great, but its really hard to find places to eat out that have vegan options. Slims shakes are famous of their vegetable and fruit juice mixes that they dont add anything else but the actual real fresh fruit and vegetable to. I ordered a Superfood salad with no cheese which came in a good-sized bowl and looked super appetising! I asked for tomatoes instead of cheese that they havent charged any extra for, and the food came really quick as well. Unfortunately i didnt get the name of our waitress, but she was really friendly and helpful. I can definitely recommended Slims to anybody, vegan or not, everything is fresh and beautifully served. Thank you girls from Slims who served us today! It was delicious and the service was lovely! read more

Slims Healthy Kitchen - Vegetable juice comes in a takeaway cup, but its absolutely delicious! - Health Markets Near Me - Belfast, BFS

Slims has filled a hole in Belfast and it's also probably filled a hole in many Belfast bellies. The concept of Slims is quite simple - they aim to create fast food without it being unhealthy. If you're in to burning calories or building muscle in the gym then you will love Slims. Their menu is full of 'super foods' (try the Avocado salad) that not only taste great but also have nutritional value. Sometimes with health food cafes you find they lack variety but Slims is the complete opposite - I went in for lunch and struggled to pick from the menu that consisted of wraps, salads, burgers, grilled delights and stir frys. Slims lunch menu is also reasonably priced with most dishes under £10. If you want to get your 5 a day in one hit I suggest you pop in and try Slims Froyos. There's a cool quirky vibe about Slims - it feels like the owners are on a mission to sculpt Belfast's bloated beer belly in to a solid six pack. read more

I haven't been so often in recent months but I've been regular enough to have bought complete meals of starter, mains and juice on loyalty card points about 3 times to date. The salads are great here and there's a great range of juices, mains, sides, wraps, and ways of serving eggs in the morning. Now I know that this won't suit everybody but I recommend getting a porridge along with a Peanut Butter Bonanza and pouring some of it over the porridge. Well I like it if you don't! Starters are a bit limited but there's usually a soup of the day in addition to the regular house soup of coconut and carrot. read more

Nutritious, healthy, eyecatching, colourful fresh food seems to be the Slims signature and they do it with perfection. I recently visited Slims on the Lisburn Rd after a gym session and I wanted to have something tasty but healthy and protein filled and thankfully this place popped into my head. You can't miss it with it's unique wooden exterior, quirky wooden seats outside and topped off with a cow statue on their roof. When we arrived there was a short queue but plenty of seating where we were given a menu to peruse. The menu has lots of options including wraps, salads, curries, noodles and meat dishes. They have an extensive drinks menu which really has everything covered- amino slushies, whey protein smoothies, fresh fruit juices, veggie smoothies and drinks made with frozen yoghurt they make themselves. You can also add extra scoops of whey protein to all of the drinks if your really wanting to aid the muscle building process. After a short wait of less than 5 minutes we were seated. I ordered the Fearon smoothie which was a blend of fresh cucumber, spinach, ginger, lime and pineapple. For my main I had butterfly chicken with teriyaki dipping sauce and an and avocado salad. The drink was really refreshing and had a nice consistency with well balanced flavours. The chicken was tender and the salad was an excellent accompaniment. The teriyaki sauce was a little watery but still edible. They also have healthy traybakes and desserts, however I was in a rush and unfortunately didn't get to taste them. This is a great spot for guilt free dining. It always seems to be busy and they have expanded their business with further restaurants at Victoria Square and the Belmont Rd which shows just how popular their concept has become. read more

After putting on more weight than I care to share over Christmas, a friend and I decided to give Slims a try avoiding the bun-fest we usually go for of a morning. Advertising itself as a sort of slimmers cafe (in my view anyway) I was surprised at the menu, which seemed to be pretty much like any non-health cafe with burgers and breakfasts and the like, but as motivation was high I went for a warm goats cheese salad and a juice. Despite asking for no nuts, out it came avec nuts none the less (picky me, though allergies are a common problem), but it was pretty tasty. My friend thought her flatbread was a little small for the money when it came out, but by the end she had eaten her words, describing it as 'utterly delicious' and 'worth a repeat'. The highlight for me was the juice, a hearty mix of beetroot, celery, chilli and apple. Some places claim to give you fresh juice which is in reality a couple of bottles mixed in the glass, but Slims is the real deal. We'll be back health kick or not, as with juices like that, there is nothing wrong with a burger... read more

So I'm going vegan for November, most sources will tell you that a plant based diet is healthier than a meat inclusive diet. I think someone needs to pass this on to Slims. My partner, being all lovely and supportive, decided to treat me to a meal out and he figured this would be a good place to go. As far as vegan options go, the menu was woefully lacking. It seemed more focussed on things like 'Less than 500 calories' or 'High in Protein' options. In the end I went for the falafel and beetroot burger served on top (Yeah I know, for some reason not in) a pitta bread. This normally comes with a cheese topping and a yoghurt and herb dip both which I had to omit. And I have to say I didn't enjoy the burger. It was too thick so it had a VERY raw plant taste and it was bunged with huge bits of chilli which added very little but to try and disguise the flavour. Also the dishes are just small enough to need a side so make sure you take that into account too. The chips were amazing, but that could be because its the only part of the food I really enjoyed. The décor, while there was the odd nice piece had an overall feel of crossing a kids playground with a school cafeteria. The tables were too close together and the service was a bit lacklustre. Overall there are much nicer places to eat healthy in Belfast. This one feels like its been thrown together with a menu based on a George Forman grill cookbook and for me wasn't a pleasant experience I'll be rushing back to. I'd say add one star to this review if you are a meat eater. read more

This place didn't appeal to me I been but I saw menu and nothing on there took my fancy at all. I mean what's grass fed Steak??? The cow eats the grass then is killed and made into steak or is the steak taken to a piece of grass rolled in it and then cooked??? I'm thin enough I don't need to lose weight so I don't see the point of me going to eat healthy I've been tiny all my life so I think i will stick to a massive roast dinner, chips and burgers etc. May appeal to others but sorry not me. read more

I really enjoyed my meal in Slims, a fantastic Nicoise Salad with tuna which was lovely if a wee bit overcooked for my liking. The whole menu is really tempting and it's the kind of place where you want to try everything from the really interesting sides to the amazing array of juices and smoothies. Definitely my kind of place with a nice buzz, friendly staff - just a good place to go when you want to be a bit healthier but still have a real treat. read more

Since the re layout of slims, I've found myself going here less and less. I would have taken away shakes and sometimes food from here as it was easily accessed and was clearly segregated from those sitting in, there was also a space area for those to wait if there was a queue for sitting in. Now it's seems like those taking away or waiting to be seated are crammed together, and doesn't seem as welcoming as before.If I'm going there I feel like I have to sit in. The food and drinks are nice, particularly the roasted pan seabass, so give it a go if you have never been before. Although it would be nice for a health kitchen to have a calorie breakdown of their foods. read more

Went to the Slims on the Lisburn Road, it was really busy, but it always is. It is a popular place and I can see why. Was impressed with the food menu, I was expecting something completely different, like you're healthy meal etc. but there was a good variety. Food was good also, nothing outstanding, but I did feel good about myself after, which I feel is what they are aiming for. I didn't try a smoothy, but who I was with did, and very impressed. They offered a wide range of smoothy also, so it would be worth getting one. Wasn't the cheapest place, but that wouldn't stop me going again. Good idea, great place. read more

So handy and everything is delicious. The protein shakes are great when you're on the move
