    Countless visits here and I have yet to be disappointed, (if you like cheese, it's even better because they don't even know the meaning of a little bit). Food is always fresh and delicious, service is always fast and efficient, and the beer is always cold! I consistently try and bring home cans of their chili to try and recreate their perfect Chili Mac at home oh, but it's just not the same. If I could read Skyline Chili more than five stars, I absolutely would.

    Skyline is a great place if you’re looking for some food you haven’t tried before. This is a Cincinnati franchise that has opened one location in clearwater. As a Cincinnati native, I can tell you that this is just as good as the stores in Cincinnati. You seat yourself when you arrive and you’ll love the smell when you walk in. I personally recommend the 3-way with habanero cheese and a couple cheese coneys to go with it. Their hot sauce is delicious and you’ll be pleasantly surprised to see the food being made at the bar so you can watch the magic unfold.

    Fantastic drove 2 hours just to have Skyline my husband is from Cincinnati so he grew up on it. I love it . Best ever we are getting one in Orlando so it will be close to home but we will still be visiting Clearwater.

    Skyline Chili is my favorite food in the world. We drove about 90 miles one-way to eat at this location while in Florida on vacation. My favorites are the 4-way onion (I had a large one) and the cheese coneys (I had two.) Always finish it off with a York Peppermint Patty at checkout.

    This is the Skyline Chili in Clearwater Florida. Skylines Chilli has a different taste than typical texas style Chili and people either seem to love it or hate it.I happen to like their Chili with its sweet yet savory flavor. I ordered the two way Chili with cheese and crackers over spaghetti.And it didn't disappoint. We also had Chili dogs and Chili cheese fries as well as a Greek salad.The salad was very tasty.The guy who took our order was friendly and helpful.the prices were fair. The restaurant was very clean.Their was plenty of both seating and parking.If you are in Clearwater and looking for something different after eating seafood all week, you should give if a shot.

    For being short stafe, still had good customer service. I don't get out in that area often, but I love Skyline. The only thing I can say. My first order of Chilli dogs didn't come with onions and mustard, but my second order did but not with onions on the entire dog. Just a little bit on one end of the dog.

    Love the Service and environment but the chili is blah and being this is what they’re known for they really need to step up their game… last time I tried it I felt the same but I thought I would give it another shot and nope 2nd time was still blah 👎🏼

    The service was good. I’m not too impressed with the mound of cheese on every item. The chili is hard to taste through the excess amount of cheese. The hot dog was barely visible in my cheese coney. 3.3 out of 5.

    First time visiting and it was underwhelming. The counter service was not great, server was stressed and not very personable, when my food arrived it was pretty much just plopped on the counter and pushed towards me. Once I had my food the server disappeared until it was time to drop the check off. The food tasted fine, about what you would expect. I may try this place once more, but it’s not near the top of my list unfortunately.

    The chili tastes just like it does up in Cincinnati. The walls had many pictures of Cincinnati and the workers were wearing Bengals and Reds merch. Reminds me of home. Loved it!

    The serving size was huge. Multiple people could easily of shared 1 plate. Their chili seems to have a sweet flavor to it, perhaps cinnamon? Not sure. Definitely unique.

    Our waitress this time was Christine. Christine and Tiffany are absolutely the best there are! They are both very friendly, personable and attentive! I ask for Christine or Tiffany whenever I go because of the service they provide. Keep up the good work ladies!

    Excellent food, if you enjoy chili. The service is typically exceptional. It’s a nice atmosphere, family friendly. My sons love Skyline. Highly recommended, a long-time family favorite.

    Great food, great service, great prices.. Cincinnati Ohio comfort food!!! It will definitely make you feel like your back home!

  • 5/5 Tyler Brown (. 1 year ago on Google
    Best chili that I’ve probably ever had! Definitely in the top three! First time I went here, I had a lot of questions about the chili. I even question myself as a person lol. Second time I went, that’s when I decided that it was really good! Staff have always been super friendly and helpful. It can get busy pretty quickly there but I’ve never seen it totally full. Regardless, food comes out quick. Anytime I’m in Clearwater, I’ll make sure to make a stop by there!

    Gary is an all star employee. If I could leave more stars I would. I just came thru after calling an order in on the fly, they had 5 minutes to get three 3 ways ready and when I flew in the door the bags were in their hands and they knew it was me walking in... guess I looked like Mike. Anyways it was my first time and it was perfect. The service, the food the young smiling faces on the hardworking staff. You made my dinner excellent thank you. You deserve a raise. I'll be back.

    Best hotdogs in town always consistent very clean facilities, friendly people 20 year customer great place to meet up and have dinner with friends before going out for a night on the town

    Visiting from Cincinnati, this place is a dream come true! We visited twice while on vacation and couldn’t have been more pleased. The 5 way and original burrito were just like a big taste of home.

  • 5/5 Mike T. 11 months ago on Google
    So freaking good, same as I get when I’m in Cincinnati. Great service and food!

  • 3/5 Tyler M. 2 years ago on Google
    The service is amazing the place feels very welcoming and smells so good. But the chili is barely present hidden by a mound of cheese and overpowered with a strange sweet tang. The fries were a generous portion but stale and hard. If they didn't add the weird secret ingredient I would be there often but I can't say I'll return.

  • 5/5 Laura “Lori” H. 10 months ago on Google
    So you come for the incredibly delicious chili. You put that chili in anything and it is delicious. The atmosphere is like an older outdated diner, but everything is kept in good condition, just looks outdated. The service is always super fast and friendly. The waiters often asked me if I wanted a drink to go, which is nice. They have lots of booth seats which is great.

    So glad we're luck enough to have the Skyline in the area. It's not often, but from time to time I get that urge for a Chili 3 Way. It still surprises me every time I see it and I've had it man times. Not for those who don't want to enter a cheese coma, but I love the cheese and am never disappointed. Not as big of a fan of the cones, but the Chili Mac is to die for.
