The OG of Cincinnati chili. Gotta show respect and I love that they’re still alive after 102 years but man, the restaurant feels like a 90s Taco Bell and the chili is good but not great.

Legend. Nothing else needs to be said. Empress started the entire Cincinnati chili genre and they're still the best cheese coney there is. Empress #1 and then the pretenders. Raised on it, raising my kids on it. Love Empress!Parking: Plenty of free parking.Kid-friendliness: Kids love Empress. Something for everyone.Wheelchair accessibility: Easy wheelchair access.

Tradition and historical significant are the major attractions to this Empress Chili - well worth a visit.

Empress Chili never disappoints. Great, homemade flavor and atmosphere that you never get at the other chili chains. Now that I know it's there (none near me unfortunately) I'll definitely be back!

Delicious Cheese Coneys at $2.14 each is a great deal!

The chili was bland. Nothing like it used to be. I'll be sticking with Skyline and Goldstar.

Empress Chili, the original Cincinnati chili. The chili pizza is one of a kind and phenomenal. Include a Barq's Red Cream soda to round out your experience.

I’ve ate at this location a lot but lately all the lunch meat has thick rind all through out the sandwich’s. I can deal with that as the food is normally fairly decent. I’m most upset at the service when the adult owners are not working. The kids that are working there could care less. Four times in a row now they looked at me crazy when I pull up and tell them I submitted an online order. They don’t check! I use to call the orders in but was encouraged to use the online portal. So I wait for them to make my food while watching the kids goof around. I didn’t want to leave a bad review and sent a message via Facebook because I would want to know this as an owner and my message was read but ignored. Don’t use the online portal!

This is one of my favorite chili joints around. It feels and taste more authentic than the other top chains around. So I like it, but when I'm up this way with my children they always ask for Empress vs the others.
