- Emily YaniskoMärz 15, 2014Half smoke all the way. Only way to do it. Nothing like anything else anywhere else, ever. Nothing better. I stop here after a 13 hour shift because if I'm here, I can't miss the chance to eat several
- Zach MartellJanuar 6, 2012Half smoke is where its at.. Chili onions, cheese is extra but a must! Oh and mustard.. A little on the expensive side but still a great place to go

- CurbAugust 12, 2011Eat a half smoke after bars close. Then skip the all-out melee for a cab by booking with Taxi Magic. Schedule pickup around the corner (13th & V, maybe) and outsmart the crowds.
- Audrey ADezember 22, 2012CASH ONLY! If you can't tolerate spice, the chili will make you sweat. Service is fast and the line goes quick!

- Brenda AndrewsOktober 12, 2016Best place for late night food in the District. Ran into several friends from Detroit.
- Dave HoptonDezember 2, 2011Truly legendary. Worth a visit for the pictures of celebrities alone, but the Chili Burger and cheesy chili fries are great.

- Charita S.September 26, 2010Ahh such WONDERFUL memories. I've enjoyed chili fries and Half Smokes here since 1990. All who are Cardozo Alumni had to have stopped in here at least once....or many more. The place is packed after l Mehr erfahren

- Justin SchuckFebruar 4, 2011Get the Chili Half Smoke w/ Mustard & Onions -- even if you don't like mustard, onions or chili. Heck, even if you don't like meat. This is why God made Ben.
- Dan 4Januar 29, 2012Veggie Chili is pretty good, and filling meal worth the drive if you are close anyway, so you can eat the same place Obama ate
