Fast food chicken restaurants with the best salad.
The big franchises or the independent locals? Who has it, the best?
I start this quest with a strong bias towards Slim Chickens in Broken Arrow. I have tried it several years ago and I was impressed. Proceeding with a redo of the fast-food chicken restaurant outlets. The competitors are as follows: Slim Chickens, Chick-fil A, Waldo’s, Zaxby’s, Red Light Chicken, Chicken and the Wolf, and Charlies Chicken.
Slim Chickens is a strong competitor. It has a big salad. Loaded with chicken, vegies and a bonus of onion rings. They have more varieties of dressing than a pack of Crayola crayons has colors. A five-star Slim’s Salad today. This is going to be hard to beat. The chicken is good. Not the best in the industry, but good. Of the franchises, I prefer Raising Cane’s chicken. Unfortunately, they are not in the competition, because they do not offer a salad. That’s a good thing, sticking to the what they do best.
Slim Chickens restaurant in Broken Arrow is clean. The service is outstanding for a fast-food franchise. One of the very best in service.
Now there is something else. Nothing to do with the salad. The fried pickles. A heaping basket of greasy, crisp, crunchy, salty, spicey, vinegary, thin sliced pickles, with a perfect fried flour and corn meal coating. Dipping sauce NOT needed! I have never had any this good anywhere, period. Check the pictures and try them the next time you are in the store.

Read moreWe came here today for lunch because my journeyman suggested it. In all honesty I am really glad that he did because this food was hot fresh correct and reasonably priced as well. When we first got there it wasn't too busy and our orders came out relatively quick. As we sat there you could tell they were going into their lunch rush and everyone else knew what I was just figuring out was this food is the best chicken I've had from a fast food restaurant in a long long time. I had the classic Meal which was for tenders french fries Texas toast and it came to about $9.50 maybe more around 10. And it was worth every bite. I had the sweet red chili dipping sauce with my chicken and it was absolutely delicious. The sauce itself had a slight kick at the end which made every bite delicious. If you're looking for a new chicken fast food restaurant this is the one you need to try before you go anywhere else and get disappointed. Slim Chickens is now amongst the top ones for me for lunch time not only did it fill me up but it didn't give me that I ate too much feeling. The breading for the chicken was perfect not too much not too little to where the chicken underneath Burns it was very juicy. I will be returning to Slim Chickens over and over again and that's a guarantee. Give them a try you won't be...

Slim's chicken is honestly my favorite chicken joint, Plus is nice and clean and staff are nice, the foods very good and just a nice place to hangout for a bit.
Definitely recommend the Hungry Meal or chicks meal or anything else honestly, along with Honey BBQ or Spicy BBQ
Been here well over dozen times and Slim's is great.
Restrooms near entrance immediately so not hard to find. Restroom was clean being a 1stall 1urinal {mens}
Napkins and ketchup at the tables.
Place has TV's and music allowing entertainment.
You have a great variety of seating, normal tables, high seats, booths or even outside patio, Or single seating. Honestly I've been in every seating area and love the patio during winter.
They also got a 2 way drive through which I normally don't see, nice.
This is a great place to grab a bite with friends or relax with yourself while editing or browsing the web with a nice treat.
Only thing I would like to see more of is outlets as I do normally hang around for more than an hour depending on the day/time.
Also noise depends on how busy it is* normally quiet
Overall a great place that's worth picking up/dining...
