Pleasant Ridge Chili Restaurant in Ohio

"For a corner dive, this place is something special in Pleasant Ridge. First time going here and the place is great. Asked others what I should get and was highly satisfied. Their gravy fries(which they're known for) are to die for. Cash only, but don't let that hold you back. This is a gem..."

"Dan makes the Best chili!! Forget Blue Ash, Gold Star & Skyline. The best four way and chili dogs I’ve had. There is a really nice selection of other items to eat, from breakfast to burgers to sandwich’s to dinners. The staff is very friendly. Great place to eat and it’s still cash only."

"Went to 4 Cincinnati chili places yesterday. Not the chains we’ve had those. Between Skyline and Gold Star, Gold Star is our favorite. However, Pleasant Ridge Chili Restaurant was the absolute best Cincinnati Chili we have had so far hands down! Can’t wait for an opportunity to go back again!"

"What a Gem! The Gravy Cheese Fries have a special place in my heart...Mom & Pop spot here...Super amazing Chili! All home cooked from scratch daily!! Service was top notch!! It's so wondertul to have places like this still around! Also amazing Cincy Coneys!! 100% recommend!"

"This little gem really does serve the best fries, chilli and gravy! Super friendly and thoughtful too the food was delicious, very clean and home-like feel to it! Thank you for making our Cincinnati day special"

"I have been in the Greater Cincinnati area for seven months this week and I normally try to go somewhere I haven't been to each week. Today, this spot was on the list as it's currently Cincinnati Chili Week, which I had been looking forward to since I first found out I was moving here. My friend LOVES this place and I can see why. We both ordered the same thing, two coneys and the gravy fries. Now, personally, I was on the fence because I had never had gravy fries, let alone heard of them but when I ate them, I wish I could have ordered the larger size because it was simply amazing! They tasted like regular style mashed potatoes and gravy and it also gave me a reminder of what we call back home in Iowa, a Magic Mountain. It was indeed a little bit of a wait but not too long as we went just after peak dinner times (8pm) and our waitress was phenomenal. Good luck trying to get the recipe of the gravy though. I was shot down immediately trying to get it. It's a secret recipe so forewarning if you try to ask about it. Great food and service, though. I will be back often!"

"Pleasant Ridge Chili: Where Miracles (and Melted Cheese) Happen I don’t know what kind of secret magic they sprinkle over those cheese coneys at Pleasant Ridge Chili, but I swear they might’ve discovered world peace in shredded cheddar form. Perfectly toasted bun, snappy hot dog, chili that tastes like Cincinnati history itself—and a mountain of cheese that could make a vegetarian reconsider their life choices. But here’s the real headline: my daughter—yes, the pickiest eater on Earth—was actually satisfied."

"I have always wanted to eat here and finaly got too. The food is great and they are very frendly. Juat remember to bring cash."
