Slim Chickens 1517 South Minnesota Avenue, Sioux Falls, SD 57105

"My boyfriend and I have never been to Sioux Falls much and we were told how amazing this place was to eat. The food did not disappoint! HOWEVER, the service did! We were not greeted as we came up to the front desk. Then, the register worker just stared at us without asking what we would like. My boyfriend told him we have never been here before and we might need a second. The worker then just turned around and started doing other things and seemed to be annoyed. We then ordered and after we were done the worker just stared at us and didn’t say a word. My boyfriend said “oh that is all we need” and instead of telling us our total or any words at all, this worker just nodded his head to the tablet to swipe our card. I think in total the young man said 2 words to us in total and it honestly ruined the excitement of the whole experience for us. When we tried to find a table to sit at all the tables were sticky and dirty and when asked if our table could be cleaned, we were told there were paper towels we could use to wipe it down. That did not take care of the stickiness. It’s was just a sad and disappointing experience. Such a shame."

"The first time I ate here it was awesome but since then my experiences have been less than desirable. I usually get the chicken sandwich and my chicken hasn't been hot or fresh. The sauce is delicious but not a fan of the actual chicken."

"We stopped in for a quick lunch. After placing our order and finding a table our sandwiches were brought out hot and fresh. We also tried the fried okra and mushrooms, everything was delicious."

"The food is good only on weekdays where it’s not stale or fresh. The service is really bad because there are teenagers who forget about your order and you have to wait 15 minutes just for a drink. Then there is a worker claiming to be the manager to other customers but when the manager comes out he was no help either to my complaint. As well as the food is not fresh on weekends and is stale. If you want to order from here I suggest to order on weekdays where no teenagers can mess up your order."

"Slim Chickens has consistently delivered on its promise of excellent food, earning a solid four out of five stars from my recent visit. The star of the show undoubtedly remains the delectable chicken offerings that have become synonymous with the Slim Chickens brand. The tenderness of the chicken, paired with a variety of flavorful sauces, continues to be a highlight that keeps me coming back. However, the dining experience was tempered by a less-than-impressive interaction with the staff. While the food was exceptional, the service left much to be desired. The staff seemed disengaged and indifferent, lacking the enthusiasm and attentiveness that could elevate the overall experience. The absence of a welcoming atmosphere and proactive customer service was notable and somewhat disappointing. Despite this drawback, the efficiency of the ordering process and the consistency in food quality mitigated some of the service-related concerns. Slim Chickens has established itself as a go-to spot for chicken enthusiasts, and the core product remains a reliable draw. In summary, Slim Chickens continues to impress with its mouthwatering chicken offerings, earning a solid four-star rating. However, addressing the staff's lackluster attitude and fostering a more customer-centric environment could significantly enhance the overall dining experience. With a bit more focus on service, Slim Chickens has the potential to elevate itself from a great food destination to an outstanding dining establishment."
