    I got deathly ill this evening after eating at this place. My buddy didn't, but it's pretty obvious that what I have is food poisoning, and it came on after eating here 🀷‍♂🀢🀮🀮🀮🀮🀮

    シンシナティの有名なチェヌン店。 パスタは柔らかすぎる麺でした。 味は倧味っお蚀った感じでスモヌルサむズでお手䞊げ。 ホットドックにかかっおる゜ヌスもおなじなので、ずにかく濃い味でした。 店員はフレンドリヌでした。

    Was promptly seated when I arrived. Sat for 15 minutes while the waitress doddered about the other sparsely occupied tables. Never even acknowledged my existence...completely invisible. Got up and left...pretty sure they didn't notice that either 😄.

    First time trying Cincinnati Chili and I was pleasantly surprised: I loved it! Great flavor. I got the 5 way which is an addition of onions and beans. The service was nice and I thoroughly enjoyed my experience start to finish. Will return.
