A Kansas City Star. My grandfather lives right down the road from Dixon's, so it's been a part of our family tradition for years now. While it's not traditional chili, it is delicious. And you can't go wrong with beef, cheese, sour cream. The service is exceptional and the atmosphere is pure, friendly midwestern.

For the historians out there, this was also one of Harry Truman's favorite spots :)

Unique--but the best!!!. Not your mother's chili--but equally fantastic! You get a plate of steamed beef, steamed beans, and you season it however you want!!! There is a learning curve, but by the 2nd time you should be getting the hang of it!

The tacos are equally fantastic--I always get one on the side.

The personnel are always friendly--at both locations--and we've seen the same ones for years!!!

Very unique, don't miss. This place is an experience. Make sure to ask for a sampler plate prior to ordering and have your server give you the rundown on what soupy and greasy are, etc. This is not chili like you have been taught to think of it, but that is not a bad thing. The vinegar sauce in the bottle that looks like it is hot ( peppers inside ) is not hot and is wonderful, try it. If you live in Kansas City and haven't eaten here, you're missing out. You won't leave hungry. Old-school in a good way.

Avoid at all Costs, Should not be called Chili. This has got to be the worst "chili" i have ever had. To call the extremely lightly seasoned ground beef chili is false advertising. No flavor, no heat or spicyness, just greasy ground beef.
