"Bruh, this shh, food is good. Great, actually. I got the Cincinnati chili and it taste just like skyline chili like literally just like it. I could tell it has lentils in it, which is also good. I also got the Philly it was great! It wasn’t as hot as the chili was, but it’s good. And the potato portion was small for six dollars. I was sad but I gave just a tiny one to my dog. She loved it and I loved it as well. I live literally directly down the street from it. I’m vegan and I will be returning! I’m happy! Thank you!"
