Love this place after Skyline ! It's definitely meatier than Skyline . Milder though and sometimes that's just what I want!

Sarah Spagnolo

A top spot for chili in Cincy , where the dish is made with all-spice, nutmeg , and cinnamon and served on spaghetti . Ask about the secret sauce. More top places for chili : http://wxch.nl/1JGRTS8

Tuna Melt (tuna , mayo , diced egg , sweet pickles - I added dill pickles , tomatoes , cheddar ), extra crispy fries , & bacon . You need to dine here! It's one of those old, classic diners.

I'm from out of town but this seems to be a local cincy foodie food joint. Make sure to try the coneys! I got a delcious burger and even the coleslaw is delicious. The menu is so inexpensive too!

Love the place! My server, Krystal, spoiled me w/ samples of tuna & egg salads , the food (Club Double Decker , Cheese Fries ) was amazing, & the cashier & I talked Europe for 20 mins! I'm hooked!!!

Open 24/6! Very casual . Service is good. Can get quite crowded and loud especially if they get backed up in take-out orders. Coneys are good!

Anna Hider

Similar to skyline but also quite different. I like it a lot, not everyone does, but you really should give it a try!

John Garvey

A decent alternative to Skyline , with a full diner style menu to complement.

Andy Guinigundo

Chili , double deckers . Not the original location but definitely a Cincinnati original.

Randy Tate

Great Concussion style chili . Get it all the way and you are good for the rest of the day.

Ginny W

The chili and the service are always great. This is the best Cincinnati chili in the city , hands down.

Spicier the Skyline with a milder flavor. All in all I love it!
