    OMG, I love this restaurant! My son lives in town, and knowing how much I love fried chicken, he brought me here for the first time. Everything was delicious, but unfortunately, I got full and couldn't finish. The meal came with the best fried chicken and creamed corn I've ever had. The other sides were terrific too. I could barely eat the delicious ice cream sandwich at the end, but somehow managed. BTW, for any vegetarians, there is a fantastic option as well. For as long as my son lives in CB, I will continue to dine at The Slogar!

    As always, Slogar did not disappoint. We had the family style chicken and sides and it was amazing! Highly recommend! We were a party of 8 + a baby.

    We hosted our college grandson and five of his friends for a delightful and delicious dinner at Slogar. They could not have been more pleased. Everything was amazing! Great evening!

    Just everything is right with this place! It’s great food and the family style concept is unique in CB. Our server and the support service were obviously well-trained and dedicated to providing a great experience. Laid-back yet attentive.

    We have eaten at The Slogar several times over the past 30+ years and have always found the food to be great, and last night was no exception. We reserved a table for our family skiing at CB several months ago and only have these few criticisms. Only three of us had signature drinks and my wife and grandchildren soft drinks so always expect to pay a lot for a bar tab but our tab for 4 adults and two children with included automatic gratuities was over $400 for fried chicken dinners! As usual the food and service were excellent but their prices have become exorbitant but I guess they figure anyone who can afford to take their family skiing will just expect to pay a fortune to have a nice meal out, but next trip to CB we will skip The Slogar. If you decide to eat ere I would suggest dining there early in your trip since we have about 10 pieces of chicken in our cooler to eat at home.

    We unfortunately thought the price was really steep for what you got. They charged my 10 year old $49 for a side of chicken (which we did not want.) The service was very rushed. They took away my husband’s plate mid-bite. I’m guessing they are trying to get as many people through as they can. But for a $500 tab, we should have been able to enjoy the meal.

    GREAT CHICKEN! But other than that pretty average. For the price, you’d think there would be more elegant ambiance or better service but this place runs on reputation more than anything.
