UPDATE: The manager of the local restaurant called me and apologized for internal confusion at the restaurant about the coupon. She did strive to make things right and I appreciated the speed with which she called and the responsiveness related to the problem... ORIGINAL POST: The food was good and I went through the drive-through so the service was fast and friendly. The reason for the (original) 2-star rating was that we live in Athens and received an ad at our home for all restaurants in the Huntsville area, including the address of the Athens restaurant. Also, when I ordered at the drive-through, the person taking my order said the coupon would be accepted. Then I got to the window and the person taking my card said she had been told they would not accept the coupons. I clarified with her that the coupon was from the flyer that included their address. She responded that she understood and that I was not the only person who had attempted to use a coupon. This restaurant needed to be clear with the corporate office that they are not accepting coupons so the flyers are not printed with the address of this restaurant on them and are not delivered to the Athens area.

Bryson is exactly who you want to greet you and take your order. He is sweet, has a beautiful smile and his accent....I could listen to him for days. Anyways, back to the review. I got the Tender Mac Bowl meal. It's Mac n cheese with cut up chicken on it and some shredded cheese. It was SO good!!!! My husband got the 3 piece chicken tender meal. Followed by dessert. I got the DELICIOUS strawberry cheesecake jar dessert. It is so cute!!! They come in little mason jars. My husband got the brownie jar dessert. The food was delicious, hot and perfect!!! The restaurant was clean. We ate and then went to get our jar desserts, having paid for them when we ordered our meal. Brealyn (hope I spelt that right) was so sweet. This bigger guy was telling her to make sure the customers get them when they order them. For one, I had asked Bryson if we could get them on the way out. He said no problem. We got no smile or anything from the big man. Not pleased with him. Especially talking to Brealyn like that. She did nothing wrong. That doesn't take away even one star that everyone else earned. Including whoever was cooking back there. We will be back.

Yippee. They redeemed themselves! The first time I ate at the Athens Slim Chickens, here is what I said. I gave them a 3 out of 5. "Not all Slim Chickens are the same. I often eat at the one in Huntsville and it's great. But the one in Athens was not up to par. The tenders and fries were both way overcooked and tasted like they were cooked in old oil. It wasn't pleasant. I think the workers need more training. Since I normally really like this restaurant, it's great for kids, and this one is local to where I live, I will return another day to see if they can do better." I returned at a later date as promised to give them another try and here is my new review and gave them a 5 out of 5... "I had a great meal. Service was very friendly, food cooked perfectly, and delivered hot in record time. I am putting this place as one of my top fast food places to eat where the food is great at a very reasonable price. Bring the family and enjoy."

Well be ready for different rants incoming first one do not eat at slims chicken in the Alabama limestone areas between having someone close to me and friends who work there they serve out of date food or bad products with mold, flies or mice in the kitchens. Picking out the Bad Then serving the public poor management and ownership who treat their employees like dirt putting them down and lying about pay or taking pay from workers of all ages and lying about overtime and scheduling plus not letting there employees time off for personal Events will not eat there again from bad food bad experiences one person I knew needed time off to move and then came back with no job and was lied to about time off another was bullied out another was bullied and lied to on hours not to mention management being combative.So I encourage and implore nobody to eat at these locations or others find better chicken to eat and better care. #slimchickens #food #bullies @slimchickens #truth #badfood...
