Stopped in after seeing a sign for their new chicken chili. Ordered it 4-way with onions, the flavor of the chicken chili isn't the same as their original, but this isn't a bad thing. It brings a milder taste and doesn't have the soupy consistency and somewhat oily presence that sits heavily on the stomach. Still love the original, as well, but different doesn't mean bad and this is a great example of that.

I tried the chicken chili tonight at the restaurant. I'm a fan 100%, it doesn't seem as greasy. Same great taste with more meat and is incredible out of the can from Kroger as well. I've never ate a bowl of Skyline chili straight but I did with the chicken chili. If you are on the fence, try it.

This skyline location was great and the server was attentive and professional. The coneys were delicious, especially with the skyline hot sauce. I also had the 3-way baked potato which was excellent. I would say a little more chili on the potato would have made it better, and perhaps a side of sour cream.

Skyline is a favorite. We visit at least once every time we're in Cincinnati. I wouldn't pick one location over the others, but this one has a very easy parking lot and a nice relaxed atmosphere compared to the others.

UPDATE: Jessica is THE BEST SERVER, Atmosphere is awesome… music is appropriate and not too loud, temperature was perfect, but when you go to this location, you MUST ask Jessica to be your server. What a gem! Couldn’t think of it before she had it to your table it or, at bare minimum, asking if you wanted it. Jessica I need a … oh you have a glass of water in your hand… ok well I need more… crackers were in your other hand… ok well I need mmmoooorree napkins… in your third hand… wait what? How did you…? She’s magic I tell ya! Jessica made me upgrade… 93 out of 100. Way to go Jessica! 5 stars.

Friendly staff, good service. Greek salad is a great value and a favorite of mine. If you've never tried the Greek salad at Skyline, you need to. No fast food chain can match this salad. Plus, pictured you will find the best ways, Chili Cheese sandwiches and conies in the USA. Skyline Chili also has fresh brewed unsweetened tea.

Very nice and clean. Waitress was an excellent woman. She had multiple tables ( more than 6) and kept up with all of us with no problems. And she actually likes her job.

Consistently good. I've lived in the Cincinnati area for 40 years and get exactly what I expect.
