Ordered delivery through Uber Eats from Ben’s yesterday. Our order was missing our onion rings and two drinks were wrong. The half smoke and sub were average at best. My kids liked the grilled and fried chicken sandwiches. Fries were cold and no condiments were provided.
We did curb side pick up and it was crazy busy. The food was amazing especially the chili. I will definitely come back when in DC
Great place to eat. Friendly staff and I appreciate that they have turkey dogs!
Some of the best chili I’ve ever had!
Food is always delicious. This is a dc staple and part of its history.
Food is amazing as always. Chili half smoke-bomb. Virginia Ali has been running it since Ben passed and she is a incredible. Blessed spot
It’s a DC staple for a reason. Ben’s Chili Bowl is everything I’ve ever wanted from a burger joint!
