Taylor's Mexican Chili Parlor

Met family for lunch. I had the chili cheese dog.l, which was delicious.

It's a Hometown Necessity!

When I was young my mother always ordered Taylor’s chili to be sent to our house in Wisconsin. She grew up in Carlinville and made Taylor’s our chili in Wisconsin. So one trip we went through Carlinville and Taylor’s fresh from the factory outlet or restaurant. 30 years later under new management and the level of excellence has risen to above that of the founders. Well done well done!

Service was good and the atmosphere was nice but the food was not good. We tried the butterbean soup, chili, chili dog and tacos. We couldn't finish most of what we ordered. Hopefully it was just an off day. We will try again. Would love to support local businesses.

Always 5 star. I've been coming since I was a kid. Best chili anywhere in the world. Period. The ladies working are always amazing and so friendly. Only downfall is they are only open 11 am through 2 pm.

Very disappointed with the food, the vegetable soup was a pureed mix of what? If a person didn't have teeth they could eat this. We surely were not expecting that, terrible. We also got nachos with meat for 4 dollars extra and there was barely a tablespoon of meat. Won't be returning a rip-off.

Brooke makes it all worth it.

Just tried for the first time. Went with the butter bean chili, mmmmm so good!

This trademark Carlinville legacy dish continues strong! I would suggest the Chili with. They always give you a generous portion of crackers and refills on iced tea. The best Chili ... ever!

It's good to know there is one more constant in life. No matter how long you are away from Carlinville when you return the taste of Taylor's Mexican Chili will be the same as the first time you ate it which for me was when I was in Highschool 40+ years ago. It was great chilli then air is great chilli now. The only difference I saw in the bowl I had today and the ones I remember was there was less grease in the chilli which I liked because it was still packed with flavor.
