    Absolutely love skyline chili. Hadn't had the opportunity to have it since my teenage years, and it did not disappoint. The service was amazing and the food was great.

    They have this place down to a science. Fast service. And the staff is always friendly! I loved it so much I went two days in a row. 😅 Highly recommend.

    I used to love the Oakley Skyline. However, the last few times I’ve gone, my food was cold. Last week, I went through the drive-thru so I gave the benefit of the doubt and thought maybe the food had cooled down on the way home (although that doesn’t really happen at other locations). Most recently, I dined-in and ate at the counter. The food came quickly, but my chilitos were cold to the touch. I don’t know if they choose not to steam their tortillas at this location or what, but it’s not good. There are much better Skyline locations if you want hot food.
