    Fantastic service. Great location with their own parking lot. Food was good. You order at the register up front and then it's like a school lunch line where you have your tray and the ladies put your drinks and food on your tray before you pick your table to sit. I tried the chili on a coney 6 ways which comes with cheese, beans, onions, and chopped garlic. The garlic is a really nice addition.

    We ended up here after some issues at camp Washington. The service was super fast and friendly. The chili dogs were just as good. The fries were fries. The interior is updated retro and super cute.

    Okay.. first time chili experience here!! And let me say I had no real expectations because I've heard mixed reviews (not about Dixie, just in general), but I have been wanting to try it since I moved to the area a few years ago. Consensus on the 3-way: tasty and would eat again! :) I enjoyed the flavor of the chili - a little sweet, and you can't go wrong with a pile of shredded cheddar cheese. The noodles were OK, I can understand why it might be a weird pairing with chili, but it just reminded me of pasta sauce! The oyster crackers added nothing for me. We also got a side of fries which were pretty good. Service was fine, interior was classic diner, and overall it was a good experience!

    We have a Airbnb up in Northern Kentucky and have ate all the Cincinnati chilies, this one is the best! Big menu cool atmosphere and a rich history. Go try it you won't be disappointed.

    Another chili place was closed since it was Memorial Day, so we decided to come here. It's a bit different than other chili places I've been to, because you order, they give you a tray and you wait for your food (instead of them bringing the food to you). It only took a few minutes and I loved how you could customize your chili! I got jalapeños and chopped garlic on mine. As for the taste, it was good! Not the best chili I've ever had, but it was tasty and I would go back if I have the opportunity when in town.

    Not your average chili place. My go-to is the Alligator which comes with dill spear, wiener, mustard, mayo, cheese on a coney bun, chili, and onions. Also, the double-corned beef sandwich is a culinary work of art. With soup salads, a dessert menu, and a kid's menu. It has something for everyone! You can even order their canned chili online...

    Chili Spaghetti 2-Way

    Visited Cincinnati and had to try the chili. Decided in Dixie chili since it was one of the chains recommended and the only one open when I had time to peruse. It's definitely a fast food joint. I got a kids meal because I wasn't sure how much I would like it. Unfortunately though, the kids meal only comes 3way (spaghetti, chili & cheese). But it was pretty yummy, and very affordable.

    Sad plate of fried

    Firstly no complaints about the food. It's always consistent and I think the best in the area. Disappointed in the service and value. I know stuff is expensive but the small plate of fries I got was pretty sad and didn't seem worth almost $4. I've noticed the serving size has gotten smaller recently but this was a bit egregious. Someone in our group ordered a 4 way with lettuce instead of pasta. The staff seemed a bit confused at the request but got it right. However, we were charged extra for the lettuce. I feel like if it would be reasonable if they added the lettuce to the 5 way but it was basically subbed in and we were still charged extra. It's a small amount but it felt like a we were nickel and dimed. I don't see how lettuce would be a higher cost than pasta. Lastly, while the service has never been super warm, the staff on duty this visit seemed like they would have rather been anywhere else. It seemed like we were bothering them when we went back up and asked for condiments. While I'll surely go back when I'm in the mood for a coney, I will reconsider going as frequently.

    Regular sized salad.
    Eric A.

    I ordered and paid for a regular salad and got what could only be considered a children's salad at best. Two pieces of ham, two pieces of turkey, 1/4 of a boiled egg and 4 pieces of cheese. Oh, and two tiny olives. Guess I'll order another lunch from somewhere else.

    4-way with onions and the salad dressing for a Greek gyro salad. I got sooo busy eating the 4-way, I forgot to photograph the salad!
    Sara K.

    It was the first time I've had chili over spaghetti (I ordered a 4-way with onions) and it was delicious!! I was a tad skeptical at first, but now I am a huge fan. There were so many flavors present in the dish, the chili was much different than chili I regularly eat. Service was very fast! And the restaurant was cute and clean. My husband ordered the Greek gyro salad and he said his dishes delicious as well. We finished off with a tasty piece of carrot cake. If you haven't checked this place out, you need to!

    Dixie is by far the best of breed of the Cincinnati Chili's. The blend of spices is perfect and the quantities are plentiful.

When my friend and I walked in, we were greeted by such a sweet staff who immediately welcomed us in, shared their thoughts on the menu (since we were first-timers), and suggested we leave a review (they were so lovely, so how could we not!) The entire restaurant feels like the diner Sam worked at in Cinderella Story from the early 2000s - very vintage, very retro, very 50s! It's what I imagine restaurants looking like when my grandparents went on dates when they were my age. I had gotten the tofu nugs via DoorDash, which were better IRL and the milkshake was scrumptious too! My friend got the Milkman Burger, fries, and a fruity pebbles shake. It was all great but let me tell ya...we had this meal almost two weeks ago and I'm STILL dreaming of those French fries. I have had so many iterations of fried potato before...shoestring, steak, wedges, sweet potato, those made from yuca, curly, dipped in ice cream, etc. and these are the best fries I've had in my life. If I could live off the fries, I would. They were that good. I already have plans to share this place with other friends of mine as it has officially worked its way into the rotation for me!

Yet pride is a poor guide, and so I ate. The moment the meat touched my lips, all doubt was struck down. What I feared would betray me instead reshaped my understanding of what this feast could be. I speak without embellishment--this sandwich changed me. I took it crowned with pickles and drenched in extra pizza sauce, and the harmony was undeniable. The bread is magnificent--soft, yielding, and resolute all at once. The sauce commands the bite. This house stands constantly filled, and for just cause. Still, I will not deceive the realm: this feast is not for all. I brought my wife, and she found no favor in the steak hoagie. Taste divides even the closest of bonds. I have since sought its equal across many lands. I have failed each time. None compare. The wings are serviceable, yet they are but attendants to the throne. The steak hoagie is the crown itself. They name this place Legendary. In this, they speak truth. I grant this feast 5 out of 5 Tankards. By my palate. -The Food Lord, House of Golden Tongue

However, I was in Cincinnati for the night for work and by the time we wrapped our event my dining options were not exactly plentiful. I figured this would be a convenient time to try them so I went ahead and entered their location into my maps and went to their website to order ahead of time so I could really just jump in and out. Ordering was not difficult though I was honestly a little surprised and how small the menu was. Do a few things and do them well, I would imagine is their motto! I ended up ordering the 4 piece combo and was told it would be ready in 10. I made my way over there with a few minutes to spare. This location does not have a drive thru and is in the bottom level of a larger building so I had to find a place to park to run in. This was surprisingly NOT easy on 10pm on a Wednesday night but I finally managed to get a standing spot (which imagine was dedicated for food delivery person pick up). I ran inside and it was packed with a super long line and a ton of people waiting. I was even happier that I had ordered ahead of time and looked to their online order pick up shelves. They were empty though the staff was calling out names and handing out bags of food so I thought, "oh it's busy and mine just isn't ready yet. I'll wait." And I waited. And waited. And waited. My bad for not going up to the counter sooner but the line was so long I didn't want to wait there and I didn't want to jump in front of anyone just to ask (I'm polite, OK?). But after a few minutes I got antsy and just went ahead and did the "PSST!" thing to the cashier between customers. And yes, of course, my meal was ready. Had been for some time, right behind the counter. I grabbed it filled my beverage and made my way back out. Back at my hotel I dug in and found that because of the wait it had gotten a bit cold and the fries and texas toast had gotten a bit soggy. Somehow, however, the chicken maintained some crunch and I found it to be quite good. I imagine if I were to have gotten it fresh out of the fryer and eaten it onsite I would have enjoyed it much more. As it was, however, it was perfectly serviceable fast food, but it didn't quite make me understand the hype. I'm willing to try it again, though!
