About

Fast Food Restaurant
We serve up small batch, Cincinnati-style chili and fresh, hot 100% American beef burgers crafted by hand and made to order. Our chili is cooked in small batches to ensure the quality, flavor and texture are perfect, every time. And the burgers? Well, they really are from flat top grill heaven - juicy, perfectly cooked and even better when topped with our famous chili.

    Went to get a chilli cheese coney for dinner and was met with rudeness and an unfriendly environment the waiters name was sabbena and she was yelling at me very loud from across the the room at the restaurant and completely going off on me then there was a so called manager who wouldn't even say she was a manager but wouldn't tell me who the general manager was. Both people were extremely rude and disrespectful and the so called manager started talking in slang and saying phrases like "For real though, and you feel me" as if she thought because I was African American that that's how I talk and communicate when it's not. So at this point I did not want to pay for the food because I didn't want to give them my business but they threatened to call the cops on me if I did not pay and actually called the police department and I eventually as a black female felt unsafe and gave them the money out of fear of being brutally handled over an issue that was not my fault. Gold star you guys need to get it together with the customer service towards your black customers because if this is how they treat people of color and they continue to do this I will never be back again!
