| - You Cincinnatians know good Skyline in the greater Cleveland/Akron area is hard to find. But if you live in Northeast Ohio and you're a fan of the famous/infamous Cincy-style chili ("chili" to some), the restaurant in Stow comes close enough.
I ate here with my best friend on a Tuesday night. We came in about an hour before close (customer faux pas, I know, sorry!!!). By that time, it was self-seating. We were the only ones there. They were starting to clean up, and one of the waitresses was vacuuming, but she thankfully stopped after we sat down at one of the cleaner booths.
The service was equivalent to any other Skyline you'd get in Cincy, and about the same amount of wait time even though we were the only patrons. Bowl of oyster crackers to start, drinks came quickly, and so did my much-anticipated four-way and cheese coney all the way (fact: if you want to order a coney at Skyline with everything on it, you must learn to order it "all the way." It's a tradition).
I'm giving the Stow branch four stars because although it didn't rival a Colerain experience (is that even possible?), the quality of the chili was LEVELS above that of the Parma Skyline.* LEVELS. It was almost home away from home.
*I mean DO NOT go to the Parma Skyline.
