My son and I really enjoyed our first visit to Slim Chickens. Like most kids, he considers chicken nuggets fine dining while I gag at the thought of yet another fast food meal. This place is a nice compromise!
The different sauces are fun to try and add a little variety to the meal - the cayenne ranch is great and I enjoyed the mango habanero. The cashier was able to special order my son's tenders with a little cayenne pepper sprinkled in the breading to make it spicy like he wanted. I think they should add this option to the menu. When I tasted his tenders I was very surprised at how juicy they were, nothing like the frozen, tasteless tenders you usually find at "kid-friendly" places. They appeared to be all white meat, too. Kudos for that!
I had the traditional buffalo wings meal and they were cooked perfectly. There's nothing worse than a limp, flabby wing in my opinion, but you won't see that here. I could've used more heat in the sauce but overall the wings were large and juicy. Not sure why we needed bread, didn't eat it.
The restaurant was clean and employees were clearing and cleaning tables to keep it that way. Ice tea was freshly made and good, too. The manager/owner came around and asked everyone if they were enjoying their meals, which was a nice touch. I'm sure this won't be our last visit here, my son has already asked for more!
