    Chili on a bed of spaghetti beans onions cheddar
    Dominic B.

    I was in Cincinnati for a football game, and was told had to try Skyline for Chili, something Cincinnati is known for. Went inside, very clean, friendly host, nice looking restaurant equipment, everything is cooked on a line in front of you. You have a choice with the chili of toppings, I got everything which was on a bed of spaghetti, onions, beans and of course fresh ground cheddar. Omg am I hooked. This was fantastic. I also got a coney dog which is a mini hot dog with chili and cheese on it, I ate it so fast that I forgot to take a picture! If your in town or live in the area, go to Skyline!

    Great Sunday evening meal with my family! It's Skyline time!!

    Can it be #SkylineTime every day?! Oh man I LOVE Skyline! I was raised on it and it always hits the spot! I live in Columbus but have half my family in Cincinnati so I go down every now and then to visit. We have Skylines here in Cbus, but for some reason, I wanted to hit up Skyline on my list of things to do on my most recent trip to Cincy. I told my grandparents I refused to leave until we went to both Skyline and Graeter's (I actually go to Graeter's once a week here in Cbus, but I wanted that Cincy special feel!). My grandpa joked "If we want to get rid of Chelsea, I guess we need to take her to Skyline and Graeter's." lol! They have humored me for 31 years and I'm happy to report they don't seem to want to stop any time soon! My grandma picked this Skyline on Kemper Road since it was closest to her house in Fairfield. It didn't really matter to me because I have never met a Skyline I didn't like. We got there as a party of 6 on a Sunday around 5pm. The place was virtually empty. So odd--who else wouldn't want Skyline on a Sunday evening?! We were seated right away in a booth and our waitress was super nice! She took our order quickly. As we started to converse, we were soon blown away when our food was there in what felt like 90 seconds! I mean I know Skylines tend to be faster but DAMN! Even my grandpa kept saying how great of a waitress she was. It could not have been more smooth and seamless! As you can imagine, my three way was perfect. I absolutely love 3 ways from Skyline. I usually get 1-2 coneys as well but I knew I'd want to overindulge at Graeter's, so I held off from the coney. My entire family really enjoyed the meal and there were lots of clean plates! Very impressed with this location. I will for sure be back next time I'm in Cincy!

    Taste just like canned hotdog chili. Ordered the coney dogs with chili and cheese. Made me gag. I wouldn't feed this crap to a dog

    A little local gem hidden off the main thoroughfare. We saw the good reviews and decided to give it…read morea try. The building itself is an interesting shape and stone- so it is easy to spot. There is a small parking lot plus street parking available. One interesting thing is the numerous old photos of Hamilton hanging on the walls. There is even one of the building back in the day! We ordered an Anna's pretzel with beer cheese and horse cheese as an appetizer. It was one of the best soft pretzels I've eaten! Large, warm and the 2 dipping sauces made a great accompaniment. We ordered a Reuben and fish and chips also. They were yummy as well. The bar tender/waitress was very attentive and pleasant. The prices are very moderate. I noticed they even offered lunch specials. I definitely plan on visiting again.

    Yes, it's a beautiful, sturdy building that you just know is reeking of historical significance…read more Parking is as easy as everyone is saying -- there always seems to be room on the street. The waitress seemed helpful enough, though, as there's weren't many customers this early in the evening, she was too busy watching the Winter Olympics to give me more than the cursory attention needed to bring my food out and take my payment. But the food definitely made up for that. This is made-from-scratch creativity at its finest. I got the Reuben's Stones, expecting a fried fritter, but got a delicate, made-like-my-mamma-would pastry instead. It was soft and doughy inside, and jam-packed with corned beef. The fish in the fish and chips was huge, hot, and right out of the fryer. And the fries had to be made from scratch, because I've never seen that particular shape come out of a freezer bag: they looked cut naturally from the round, and were also hot and tasty. And the warm butter cake was as amazing as everyone said. Actually it's this small squat cake that looks like a muffin -- until you cut into it and realize it's soaked in syrup inside & absolutely delicious. The only disappointment were the green beans --- they were overcooked and mushy -- though maybe that's how English green beans are authentically cooked. Overall, though, my visit was a real adventure filled with authentic and delicious surprises. I will definitely be back to try more.

    Went to this lovely establishment for the first time Thursday, February 13th and I was blown away…read more I want to mention I DO NOT like Mac and cheese and haven't had any since I was around 10 years old but it was one of the chosen items from their Valentine's Day menu. I reluctantly tasted it and I could have eaten it ALL but it was my date's appetizer choice not mine . The gastrique on the lamb chops was exquisite along with the Love Potion cocktail. We were very pleasantly surprised the chef came by our table as well. Highly recommend. Come dressed to impress and have a great night out with meticulously smart prepared cuisine. I could go on and on but I will end it here. Side note to the restaurant-I noticed my chicken was a bit overcooked but just remembered the server asked how I wanted my chicken cooked. I looked perplexed as that is not a question I've ever been asked and I believe that was her first day as a server. However, I said well done because I was kind of in shock with the question. I'm assuming she put well done on the order which was why it seemed over cooked. Please let her know chicken is either cooked or raw. No need to ask that question.

    I placed a reservation for 7 guests on September 23, 2025 for September 26, 2025 at 7:00 PM. On…read moreSeptember 25, 2025, I even received a confirmation text asking me to reply "1" to confirm or "9" to cancel. I replied "1" to confirm my reservation. When we arrived on September 26 at 7:00 PM, the restaurant was closed. No notice, no call, no text -- even though you clearly had my contact information. This was especially disappointing because it was for my birthday celebration, and we were forced to scramble last-minute to find an alternative. It's extremely frustrating to confirm a reservation and then arrive to a locked door without any communication. I hope you'll take this feedback seriously, as this could have been avoided with a simple message letting me know you would not be open.
