DC has no shortage of historic landmarks, but when it comes to restaurants, Ben’s is right up there with the greats. Since its founding in the U Street Corridor by Ben & Virginia Ali back in 1958, it’s become a landmark not just for its signature offering – a thick, spicy, smoky “half-smoke” sausage doused with a family-recipe chili sauce – but for its venerable history as a civil rights icon. Today, Ben’s Chili Bowl isn’t just a DC legend; it’s one of the most famous restaurants in America. It’s still run by Virginia along with her and Ben’s sons Nizam and Kamal, and not much has changed since it first opened all those decades ago: locals and tourists alike still line up for a half-smoke that’s been griddled to a deep golden-brown, with its signature snap and unique flavor that’s unlike any other sausage out there.
