Ben's Chili Bowl in Washington, DC is an iconic spot established in 1958, known for its incredible beef chili dog with cheese and French fries. The restaurant is a must-visit for anyone looking for great food and a vibrant atmosphere. It is considered a legend and a national treasure, dedicated to the art of chili, hotdogs, burgers, and fries. Customers praise the delicious food and the breathtaking mural art outside the establishment.
The staff is on point, aware, ready, smiling, and present. The music is a perfect mix of old and new. The wait time is non-existent, and the food comes out hot and quick. Customers enjoy the delightful Chili Half-Smoke and French Fries, as well as the Original Half Smoke with chili, jalapeños, onions, mustard, ketchup, cheddar cheese, mayo, crushed Ruffles Original chips, and Texas Pete Hot sauce. The Strawberry milkshake is also praised as excellent.
