Guy keeps saying "feed a family" at "Mike's Chili Parlor," but you can't, unless it's to-go. My family was visiting from Florida, and we made a stop to this "restaurant," as Guy called it. They refused to serve us at "Mike's Chili Parlor" because it's really a bar that serves just OK chili. Don't call it a "chili parlor" or a "restaurant" because it's not. They made my child stand in the rain just to get a to-go order. Save yourself a trip and get chili somewhere else.

we grew up on queen anne in the 60s and often rode our bikes over to ballard but have only ate at mikes once, am so glad to see old places like that are still here and way better than those fast food toilets!!! which really doesnt even compare, anyway love the comment the guy was saying the only he came thier was for the abuse and not the food LMAO ....gotta love places like that have character, keep up the good work guyz
We ate here for the first time on our 2 week road trip just after seeing a Seattle Mariner's game. When we walked in we were a bit scared (this does fit the "dive" section of the name) but the chili was off the hook!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The owner was sooo cool and the regulars there were so much fun!
it sure as hell isn't real chili...but it covers fries burgers and dogs well...you wouldn't eat a bowl of the free chili at 7-11 but it's not bad on nachos...
they really make the place seem a lot bigger than it really is...and i've never seen it as well lit as it is in this video
My husband, son, daughter, and I went to Mike's last weekend after learning Guy Fieri had been there. Personally, I thought the food was awful. The chili had no flavor, the hot dog had no flavor, the bag of chips was stale. The only good things were the cheese, onions, and jalepeno peppers - and the beer. Now that we've been there, done that, we never need to go again. I honestly don't know how Guy could praise this food.
Guy Fieri is my hero. If he got any cooler, the overwhelming coolness would probably cause some type of paradox, resulting in a catastrophic "cool-splosion" if you will. This would naturally tear a hole in the fabric of the universe and kill us all, but man, it would be awesome.
Ive lived in Ballard my whole life, and im mikes 2nd cousin, and i have never been able to go in and get a bowl of chili cause IM ONLY 17! im gona sneak me a bowl somehow
Last night i was watching one of the episodes high, and I remember he was being such an asshole!
He was visiting these really like rundown crappy places (I think thats what the "Dives" refers to) and the entire time he was at these places he was saying such mean things.
I ant remember which episode it was, but all I remember was that one of the places was owned by a canadian guy.
can this beat real Texas chili? it looks like it comes close. if i am ever near Mike's Chili Parlor, then i will judge for myself. but it still look great!!
@jinxiejae Watching this show gets you to see a real Guido. This guy with his sun glasses on the back of his head and all his crappy jewelry while he prepares food. I wonder if he cleans the food particles out of his jewelry at night or it stays there and get rancid until the next shoot.
Love the brain dead idiots slamming below. Losing respect for the show? G.D. idiots. Perhaps you just don't like 'that' particular food. Not everyone likes 'one' food.
When I was in high school my friends and I would drive by Mike's and swear we'd go in as soon as we could drink. That's how cool it looked. I'm not sure if I can eat the chili there anymore I've had so much of it now... Still a decent place for a brewski, though.
It looks just like Cincinnati style chili. Thats were I grew up. Skyline chili is the best(in my opinion). They sell it in supermarkets in cans now. See if you can find it. Its awsome.
What I meant by "sellout" is the fact that he is sponsoring TGI Fridays now, and I cannot stand those commercials. Not that anyone asked me why I felt this way, instead you just attacked me personally.
So hendrix, how exactly do you know I'm not going anywhere?? Oh yes, because we met the other day and you know everything about my life! What an idiot you are to make ridiculous assumptions towards someone you don't even know, just because of a varying opinion than yours.
..i dont have to know you. u already told me by your retort. you took offense to it. if everything was fine. You wouldnt of even had to explain yourself.
Speak for yourself. I have 2 jobs and am a musician on top of that. You're right, things aren't always easy. But I'm doing my best to make ends meet, while still following my dreams. That's all I'm gonna say.
I have to visit this place if I ever find myself anywhere near seattle.
