Blue Ash Chili is always a welcome meal and I've never had a bad meal or service at either location. Saturday we were at the Blue Ash location and although it was busy we were pleased with the service and the food.
I had a 5 way and my wife and I had a Reuben.
They came out in a timely manner despite all of the tables nearly occupied
Great experience as always!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Denny F.OH, OH1179Apr 27, 2024
What can I say this is a staple of Blue Ash! Whenever I want chili or a custom burger or their home made desserts this is the place! The experience is always great and the staff are always checking in! This has been a great place to grab lunch on the go and make sure you get here as it gets filled up fast!

It's been a long time since I had been to Blue Ash Chili. I had a couple of the cheese coneys and one with the friend jalapeños instead of a hot dog. Chili is very good. I did not love the buns on the coneys. Wound up eating the insides out with a fork. I'd probably go with a 3 way next time or maybe one of the delicious looking sandwiches.
The staff was excellent. Great, super friendly service. Everyone watches every table it seems, so we never went more than a few moments without someone at least looking to see if we needed anything. Great family restaurant. Lots of families and groups enjoying a neighborhood institution.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Oct 1, 2023
Just like pizza is different based on the locale, Cincinnati Chili is different than chili in other places. This blend of meat and tomatoes and spices isn't for everyone. Me, I mostly like it. I'm okay with having it annually and being okay.
I stopped here because this was a DDD stop and yes, Guy Fieri's picture stands proud on the wall. I arrived at the start of the dinner rush and a lovely young girl took my order and a few minutes later, brought my dinner.
I chose the SIX WAY which is a base of spaghetti, topped with chili, chopped onions, kidney beans, shredded cheddar cheese and yes, fried jalapenos. It was absolutely delicious and I managed to avoid wearing any of it. It was also one of the least expensive meals I had all week.

There are tons of chili options in the Cincinnati area and this is the best that I know of. I always make it a point to visit at least once every time I visit Cincinnati. Just outstanding!

I love their food! If you like a Reuben sandwich, you'll love theirs. Cooked perfectly, moist, great sauerkraut and dressing. Everything was well balanced and the rye bread was delicious!!
Our service was fast. I was with a couple of friends who also raved about their food. Everything came out together and hot. Our server was knowledgable about the menu and was very pleasant despite being super busy. The restaurant itself was very clean, and this is something I notice. I will be going back.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Feb 24, 2024
Popped in here for Chili Week and can't stop thinking of that coney with fried jalapeños instead of a hot dog. Man that was so tasty! I also had the coney with fried pickle instead of the hot dog, super tasty, too. Service was quick and friendly. I wish this place was closer to us, but probably better for my waistline that it's not!

I love getting my Cincinnati chili when I'm in Southern Ohio but this was my first try at Blue Ash Chili and really enjoyed it! The chili wasn't as spiced (maybe cinnamon-y) as I'm used to for topping spaghetti but the ingredients tasted very fresh and I really like the thick chopped onions. I stopped by for dinner around 7pm on a Thursday and it was packed but service is quick so tables turned over fast. The staff was also very friendly and they move fast so I had a great meal in under half an hour. Perfect because I needed to make my way towards the airport. Overall, I'd recommend getting the cheese coney! It reminds me of a little chili dog and I like more traditional chili on my hot dogs. Plus their mascot is super cute!

Another Cincinnati staple. Came in simply to bring back to Cleveland a 5-way and a 6- way chili. Incredible. Just remember they are not open on Sunday's.

I would recommend this traditional sandwich. I've had their 6-way chili in the past. Guy Fieri was here and had the 6-way which includes jalapeños! Also an awesome Cincinnati staple.
