Never too chilly for RAMOVA GRILL CHILL !!! YUMMO

by diamondgirl96

This place is awesome... best food, best service, owners are there all the time. My favorite is the butt steak and eggs, liver & onions and of course the chili. Love the atmosphere, diggin' the menu on the chalkboard. You've got to try the fresh squeezed orange juice. Love it, love it, love it. I have three generations going there next week for lunch. I have a list of people to bring chili home to... EAT AT RAMOVA GRILL!!

OH the pancakes rock too!!

Fair prices, good Service, terrible food, very dirty restaurant

by jdm259

I work in the south loop area and my coworkers and I are on a two month mission to eat at and rate 40 local ?lunch? restaurants. Today we dined at Ramova Grill.

First the good: there is plenty of street parking (meter .25), the service was good and the prices are fair. $3 for a small bowl of chili and $1.50 for a hamburger.

Now the bad: I had the signature dish which is the chili without beans. All members of our group agree this chili is terrible. In fact, all the food was bad. We read a prior review and understood before arriving it was out dated decor, which did not concern us, but this was one of the dirtiest restaurants I have eaten at.

I would not recommend Ramova Grill and I am baffled at the 4 ? star rating.

• Pros: Parking
• Cons: food, cleanlyness

Best chili, funny waitresses.

Been going here since I was a kid, and this place is about as Southside as it gets (i mean this in a good way). You'll find down to earth servers and patrons here. It's an older restaurant, so don't be surprised by the out-dated decor; but that's what makes it great! The chili here is amazing, the best I've ever had. Also, there is something about the burgers that I love. The prices are great, you need to stop in!

• Pros: Great Bridgeport atmosphere.
