Real Chili

Noodles taste terrible and are not worth buying. Hot dogs are moderate frozen food. Taco is the only highlight for this restaurant - large and cheap.

Great place for a bowl of the good stuff. Go there every time I'm in the area. Try it, You'll like it.

I ate at Real Chili for the first time last week. This restaurant, running since 1931, is a Midwestern Gem. Housed in a lovingly maintained old fashioned diner with a wrap around counter, Real Chili specializes in one dish - house recipe chili - and it's real. It is real hearty, real well priced, and real good. Real Chili has a thick, well flavoured meat based chili. (There is also a vegan chili on offer) There are three pots of it, with three levels of spiciness. You can get a bowl with your choice of toppings, put it on spaghetti, or do a chili dog, Dorito pie or chili nachos. I recommend topping anything you get with their freshly grated WI cheddar. They have dessert, but I ate too much Chili to be able to fit any. I'm not sorry about that. If you come in during manger Brian's shift, you are sure to be treated to true Midwestern hospitality. His pride in the business shows with the care he puts into everything, from making the food to welcoming the diners. He's also a great conversationalist, so if you enjoy a chat, say hi. :) Real Chili is open late, and is perfect for midnight cravings, but I recommend coming in on a quite afternoon and taking time to enjoy the ambience. I came in last week to find some lunch after a very long day, and Real Chili was exactly the comfort I needed. Come and support this living piece of Milwaukee history!

This was the greasiest chili I’ve ever seen. I ordered a Chili cheese dog and the grease was soaked through the bun. I went here before a bucks game and I was busy throwing up the entire first half of the game. Please don’t go here it’s so bad. The young man serving was nice.
