Solid place, and the only game in town after midnight. After a night of partying, we were starving at around 2:30AM. Thankfully, this place was open, and we arrived in our white-tie attire to enjoy chilli. Hotdogs were fine, had the Chicago style with all the fixings, and tried some of the chilli. I wish I got that, but alas, it's a recipe for disaster. Service was fine, not rude or anything like some have described here. They were certainly ready to go home, but who wouldn't be when a group of weirdos comes in a half hour before closing? I am curious if the food tastes as good when sober, though.

Pretty nasty to be honest, the bun was stale, the dog did have a decent snap, but no flavor. The chili was bad and left a greasy puke feeling. The cheese, completely flavorless and not melted. PBR WAS GREAT! My wife use to swear by this place, but that was over 20 years ago. Did i mention the fruit flys everywhere?

I came into the place by pure accident on the morning of 1/18 around 1am. My car quit on me and was awaiting a tow truck. Seen this place open and chatted with the guys who was working. They was real cool by allowing me to sit and be warm on a friged morning. Was very impressed how they dealt with some drunk and loud customers who came in. I ended up trying a chili dog and was pretty impressed 👌 Thanks again fellas for the 5star service.

Excellent service at 1130pm on Thursday. Great chili beans and noodles. Recommendations from the server like the chili vinegar really made the meal perfect.

I have been going to RealChili since the 1960’s. Just this week I ate there 2 days in a row. My all time “days I a row”? Six. If I were given a “last supper” request it would be a bowl of RealChili and a hamburger from Solly’s. But there is no death penalty in Wisconsin so I can have as many “Last Suppers” as I want. Those would be The Last Suppers to die for (figuratively speaking)
