Everything was very good. Food, service, surroundings exceptional. Tried something in Delhi- very disappointing. Drove a few miles to the old standard- PHC. What were we thinking? There's nothin in Delhi that comes close. Hopefully there will be someday. read more

Oof, just no. When other patrons tell you to try something besides the chili when it's in the name of the place, you know there's an issue. And they were right. read more

A lot of the reviews I've seen say this place is better for diner fare than for chili. Having eaten my 3-way while my neighbors at the bar counter all ate breakfast specials with goetta, I'm probably inclined to agree. The chili was nothing special--tasted more heavily of salt than of any spices, and the cheese was a bit thick-grated. Still glad to have gone to a classic Cincinnati staple, though, and my chili tour will continue. read more

Great divey diner. Grungy in a good way in seating area. Plenty of parking. Food is good and reasonably priced. Service is friendly. A joint worth checking out. read more

Food was overpriced and not good. Atmosphere was boring and not great either. Never coming back.

Chili and beer what more can you ask for!! Not on a cold night for some warm chili. Ended up getting far away as well as the tenderloin patty with some onion rings. Highly recommended!! read more

Price Hill Chili - American Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

Not a good place to dine. Food quality has gone downhill, prices have gone up. I won't be back.

Had to try to this icon of a restaurant. It's been a staple of the Cincinnati- Price Hill and surrounding areas since the early 1960's. We picked a busy Sunday afternoon and had a wait. But it was well worth it. The atmosphere is that of a family and neighborhood diner. Don't expect posh updated surroundings. Expect to be invited into a comfortable homey space -like that of walking into grandma's kitchen. The menu has everything from breakfast to dinner - and lots of variety. Although known (and named after famous Cincinnati style chili) they also have other hometown favorites such as goetta (look that up if you don't know!) We tried an appetizer of pretzels and beer cheese. They were Absolutely melt in your mouth delicious. The double decker was so huge it made for a couple of take home meals! The 5 way was good. Not too sweet but definitely a decent take on Cincinnati chili. Prices are moderate and the staff were very friendly. read more

I'm sorry but this time piece of Cincinnati needs to be put to bed..... The service is god-awful. It shouldn't take 30 minutes for a refill in a chili parlor ( hand of god we god we got our own refill's twice).... The waitress clearly had a hangover at one in the afternoon..... The chili taste like it was made four days ago. I'm so sorry but this place has fallen so far and fast. Price Hill Chili isn't what it use to be when Sam was around. I'm sorry but go to Camp Washington down the road. They have lost what is important and it clearly shows...... read more

Great food, nice service good drinks! Hot roast beef sandwich as an open faced was loaded with beef, side of gravy. Chicken tenders very tasty crispy tender. Side of onion rings delicious. Jackie, bartender did great on the manhattan! Kudos! read more

I'm surprised I haven't reviewed P.H.C. Long time patron of this westside staple. Surly it has changed over the years from a small dive to a rather large restaurant. Specializing in Cincinnati style chili and breakfast foods makes this place the gem that it is. The other menu choices are equally good as well. My only complaint would be that they bread their wings. Who does that? Anyway I passed on those and had the Sams Salad at my last visit. Full bar and drinks in the lounge area makes it a great spot to watch the competing teams on tv. I recommend you try Price Hill Chili if you have not. Good service , good bar food and decent prices won't leave you disappointed. read more

ordered a burger and it was cold when it was served, had to send it back and had it to go

The quality of the food has definitely gone down hill at this place and it seems that the prices have gotten totally out of hand in the last several years. When the original owner Sam ran the place it seemed that there was a sense of pride in running the business that he started, but no more. Sam's son doesn't seem to have that sense of pride and doesn't even seem interested in running the place. Sam created a neighborhood icon but it seems the loyal customers are aging out and it seems that the new management aren't creating new ones read more

Always a great experience! The servers are very nice and the food is very good! Have had breakfast numerous times and dinner a few times. My favorite place for breakfast! read more

Service was excellent considering we were a party of 7 adults and 13 teenagers! The ambiance was nice & comfortable. The food came out in a reasonably quick time. Everyone enjoyed the meal and there wasn't a complaint. Whatever they had playing on the t.v. was odd but at least the volume wasn't on. It was weird documentary about the Stanley cup. Anyway we enjoyed ourselves! read more

The restaurant had a wait for lunch on Sunday which makes me think this is a popular place! The restaurant also has the bar attached to it to allow for a lot of seating room. The food was very filling, but we were disappointed in the appetizer, Spicy Spuds, as we were expecting potato skins with the description it listed but it came out as fried cone balls where we couldn't taste any potato. Lots of choices for food based on their menu. read more

First time visit. We had about a 15-minute wait for lunch on a Saturday. Lots of empty tables so they must have been working through a staffing issue. Lots of TVs to watch the college football games. Huge, cool restaurant. Very comfy, family, neighborhood vibe. Our server was great too. Menu is very diverse - it has everything. Had to try their 4-way which was great! We'll be back. read more

I'm not a fan of seeing a wide open dining room and then being told it will be 10-15 minutes to be seated, and then being seated at one of the empty tables I've been staring at for 15 minutes. Our waitress can best be described as "just doing her job" which is fine. We got our drinks, our food, and the couple of things we asked for. The food was good. There was a large group of people that came in right before us and I'm not sure if their big order affected ours, but it can best be described as "probably sat there a little long before being brought out". I ordered cheese fries, and I've never had fries brought out with just a big handful of shredded cheese on it. The fries weren't hot enough to melt the cheese, so every time you picked up a fry, the cheese would just fall off. That was the only issue with the food. The variety on the menu is pretty impressive, so we'll be back to try other things. read more

We were visiting this area on Sunday morning and someone suggested Price Hill Chili. I wasn't aware of their menu or even the idea that they offered breakfast items. I decided on an order of buttermilk pancakes , no meat. They were a decent size and the flavor was very good. Not overly sweet, which was good. I started to order lunch items but I was hungry and I wanted breakfast food. Even for carry out, it was good. I can't vouch for the ambiance or service but my son in law didn't gripe about it. The West Side has a variety of foods. I wish I had a picture read more

I hosted 9 friends at Price Hill Chili last night, and discovered that the dining in experience here was even more enjoyable than getting their take-out. The hostess walked us through their many dining rooms, to arrive at Golden Fleece Lounge, their attached bar, where I assume they could best accommodate our larger group. Unfortunately, they couldn't seat us at one table, putting 6 of us at one table and 4 at another, and it had the noisiness of a bar setting, making conversation within our group difficult. However, the hospitality was amazing -- very proactive, friendly and engaging. Our group arrived 1 or 2 people at a time, and the waitresses were right on the spot with each arrival, immediately taking each person's drink order as they were settling in. We ordered an assortment of appetizers, which definitely seem to be one of Price Hill Chili's fortes. Each were ample, delicious and the epitome of comfort food, though the real "hits" among the group were Sam's Spicy Spudz, a type of jalapeno popper, and the fried pickle chips -- the taste of the pickle comes right through the hot crunchiness of the coating. The entrees were equally amazing, with kudos in particular to the goetta and cheese omelette, the clam chowder, the spinach salad with salmon, the Little Hippo ham-and-cheese double-decker -- and, actually, pretty much all of their double-decker sandwiches. These are plentiful -- and affordable -- helpings of hearty comfort food. And -- an added attraction -- on Friday nights they have live music, so we enjoyed acoustic versions of 60's rock classics from The Two Steves. All told, a fun night out in a family-friendly casual venue! With the exception of the noise level, well done, Price Hill Chili, well done. read more

We arrived on a Wednesday right around 9 am. They open at 8 am and we figured we were there plenty early to not have to worry about finding a seat. Boy, were we wrong! The place was hopping! We found a table in the back of the room next to the bar. There seemed to be one person waiting on all the tables and we were concerned we wouldn't be noticed. It did take a while, but we completely understood why. We ordered coffee and by this time someone else had arrived to help out. The coffee came pretty quickly. Next we ordered and waited a little while longer. I didn't time it and I think that means that while it did take some time, it wasn't an extraordinarily long wait. I ordered corned beef hash with eggs over easy and fried potatoes, crispy. I also ordered a side of goetta. I'd seen pictures of the hash on Yelp, so I knew what to expect. It was a little more nondescript than I was hoping, but it was okay. I'll skip the corned beef hash next breakfast and just stick with the goetta, which was beautiful! It was a huge piece of goetta and it was cooked perfectly - good and crunchy. The potatoes, as requested, were also nice and crispy. Overall, breakfast was delicious and we'll definitely come back. read more

Price Hill Chili - Corned Corn Beef Hash & Two Eggs, perfectly crispy fried potatoes and a Side of Goetta - American Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

Great variety and everything tastes great! Love the old mom and pop restaurants - this is a classic!

Chili it's something that is very common even more so in Cincinnati as they do their own way of it here and oh how yummy it is! The chili that can be found in this city is unique as it seems like most of it is made from a base of cinnamon and chocolate so it gives this distinct flavor that you really can't find anywhere else in the county which is awesome because it's a cool unique thing to find in the area when your here. Coming here I already knew it was all about the chili so that's what I ordered I got the one that had beans in it so it added a bit more zest to something that was already unique and flavorful in it's own way I mean with a pile of cheese on top of it how can you go wrong! For a starter we ordered some fried pickles they were super yummy just the way they should be and came with a sauce that had a good zest to it with just a dunk of the pickle into it. This really felt like it was a locals place as there were a bunch of cops eating next to us and it just seemed like everyone here knew each other which was cool as it's always the places like this that an outsider wants to find. Overall yummy Chili and delicious fried pickles who knows if I'll make it back here again but it's definitely not out of the question as it had what was totally good for this given chili of a cold day! read more

I was in town for a wedding and my dad said we HAD to come here before leaving town, as he used to be a Cincinnati native and grew up here. I don't like chili so the name was a bit off putting, but if you feel similar, don't fear! The menu selection is huge. We personally came here for breakfast, so I got French toast. The rest of the table got pancakes and an omelet, with goetta of course. First of all, the portions are HUGE. I was shocked! The food is also delicious. The pancakes were fluffy, the flavor on the French toast was exquisite, and the omelet was cooked perfectly. This place was spectacular, and a lot bigger than I expected it to be! I enjoyed it. read more

Poor service and nobody smiles good food, but extremely small portions. I don't believe I'm coming back to this establishment.

We love Price Hill chili love your breakfast. Everyone's always very friendly and we enjoy being there with our friends.

Had dinner here on a Friday nite with some friends. We shared some appetizers (spinach artichoke dip, fried pickle slices, "spudz" which are potato/jalopeno poppers, Greek bread with marinara) All were really good. For my main meal, I had a bowl of clam chowder. a 4-way onion and a cod sandwich on tye. The 4 way was forgettable--odd for a chili parlor, but the cod sandwich was large and crispy and I really enjoyed it. We had some good conversation until the live music started just after 7, then conversation was almost impossible thereafter since we were in the same room as the band. But the music was mostly 60s and 70s favorites and that seemed to make up for it. Service was friendly and attentive. They have a pretty large menu with something for everyone. I would recommend the double deckers and appetizers. Prices are very reasonable here. This place is a big hit with the locals. And there are 4 different rooms, so it is bigger than it looks from the outside. Plus a bar, so to call it a chili parlor is almost an understatement. One of Price Hill's gems. read more

Price Hill Chili is a great neighborhood chili spot. Over the past ten years I have visited on countless occasions. On my most recent visit, I went with a friend for lunch. I ordered a BLT sandwich and well done Greek fries. The sandwich had a nice amount of all of the toppings, so this is a sandwich I would order again. It had been so long since I had eaten their fries and they tasted heavenly! Ordering them well done resulted in crispy perfection. Our waitress was friendly and efficient. We visited on a weekday close to the holidays, so we had to briefly wait for our table. read more

My son said this was the BEST Cincinnati chili. We were surprised how big it was, and then at the debth of the menu. Everything looked good. I was amused neither of us got Chili in any form since that's what we came for. I had a roast beef sandwich with coleslaw on it. It so reminded me of a New Orleans poboy...just as messy! And delicious. My son had a bowl with tater tots, gotta, gravy, eggs. It was huge, and he polished it off in little time. Service was great, prices reasonable. Too bad it's not in my hood. I could be a regular. I would even get around to that chili! read more

Soooo I am from the East Coast, where diners are a dime a dozen - but also, we have some of the best diners in the world. I have very high standards for a greasy, diner-style breakfast that is meant to soothe your hangover woes. Price Hill Chili scratched the itch, but honestly can't hold a candle to what we have over here on the east coast - so perhaps I have a bias. This place was up the block from our Air BnB, and we opted to call for takeout. The gentleman on the phone was pleasant enough and was able to accommodate our needs. As anyone from NJ would know, the classic BEC, SEC, and THEC (or PEC) are a clear cure for a hangover - it appears not so in the Midwest. Sure, there were omelettes and eggs your way, but the only breakfast sandwich available was The Mailman, which was your choice of egg, breakfast meat, lettuce, tomato, and mayo on an English muffin, rye, or wheat bread. No kaiser rolls or bagels to be found! Honestly, though, I can forgive that, and I don't want this review to be too much of a competition between East Coast and Midwestern breakfasts. (That's not the reason why I gave this restaurant only three stars.) I opted for a bacon, egg, and cheese Mailman on an English Muffin - hold the lettuce, tomato, and mayo, please. We also got another Mailman on rye, plus an order of French Toast, biscuits, and two sides of homefries. The food was ready quick enough, and we opened the bag to indulge. My Mailman sandwich was actually quite decent - it was loaded with perfectly crispy bacon, and did its job well. The other Mailman sandwich, from what I understand, was mighty fine too. The other items, however, left a lot to be desired. The French Toast was served dry - no powdered sugar, syrup, or butter at all, just battered and fried toast. It was the same issue with the biscuits - they were tasty, but dry - no butter, jam, or anything to put on the biscuits. Perhaps this was a mistake on Price Hill's part, or perhaps this is the way it is - but being that we were in an Air BnB, we had no condiments to help the situation, and we were hoping that the diner would provide breakfast necessities like butter and syrup with our order because that is how it's done in NJ. I think, though, the worst sin of all was the homefries - they were honestly the worst homefries I've ever tasted, and it's what truly knocked down my rating from four stars to three. They appeared to be sliced boiled potatoes - no salt or pepper, no crispy edges, no peppers or onions (again, maybe that's an East Coast thing, but still). They were just two Styrofoam boxes of steamed sliced potatoes. And again, being that we were in an Air BnB, we could not crisp them up in a pan because we did not have the materials to do so. We shouldn't have to do that anyway - homefries should, at the very least, be crispy and salted. I know this place is an area staple, and I would venture to give this another try - from the reviews, their chili seems to be excellent. Also, my friend's fiancé is a West Side native and absolutely loves this place. I would try this again the next time I am in the area, but as of right now, this was my breakfast experience as an East Coast Italian. read more

The food is served up quick and with a smile at this local chili parlor. While they're known for their chili, and beyond comparable breakfast, it's their wide variety of lunch and dinner options that is sure to please any palate. They have 6 rooms and a bar to serve parties large or small but the food is not small on flavor. Every dish (many made with a little bit of flair from their Greek heritage) is made fresh and to-order and I can't say I'd have anything I would not order again. As a Cincinnati west-sider, I've been here more times than I can count and would encourage anyone coming across this review to do the same and visit this small business. You can even purchase their famous Greek dressing to take home if you desire. Just give this place a shot and you will leave with a happy stomach and likely a rekindled friendship with some you know from new or old. read more

It was my first time here and I heard the food was good. I went with a couple of friends and we had to wait a bit because it was busy! Parking was hard because it was super full. I got the corned beef hash and eggs, which also comes with home fries and toast for about $7! The price of everything was incredible for the big sized portions. The corned beef hash and home fries were a bit more wet than I usual expect it to be, but still pretty good. I expected crispy fries, but they were a bit soggy. However, everything was made well and tested good. The sandwich that we ordered was huge! It was stacked with meat and very much worth the price. This is a great place for a comfort meal, casual date, good breakfast, or a meal with the family. It gives off a very home comfort vibe. Staff was very nice and accommodating! read more

This visit was recently part of a Cincinnati Chili mission I was on to try all of the best in the city. These guys are up toward the top of the list. Their building is HUGE. They have multiple dining areas and a really big bar. I sat at the bar and got great service. The menu is also huge with lots of other great offerings, but I was here for the chili. I ordered two chili cheese sandwiches and a coke. The chili was nice and flavorful and not too runny. The mustard and onions gave it a nice kick. I loved that they had their own hot sauce. I feel like after I finished visiting all of the parlors around the city, if they had coke instead of Pepsi and had their own hot sauce, they were top notch above the others. Just my observation. I dont get to this area often but I am definitely coming back to try some of their other food offerings. It all looked so good and the place was very comfortable. read more
