One of the best pulled pork sandwiches in America, it's won national competitions! Nice location, like eating in a backyard full of picnic tables . Must eat spot in Cincy.
The pulled pork sandwich is really, really good. The place is very laid-back and you can just order then sit at the tables outside under the trees . Cash only . I will definitely be back.
Pulled pork sandwich definitely amazing. They sell coke/water, but I strongly recommend you to take your own drinks. Be prepared to wait, and even though the sandwich initially looks small, will be ok
Being able to bring my own beer and drink as much as I want while eating the best bbq pork in the city , and being outside listening to live music ... all that makes this my fave place to go!
Dry rub ribs are outstanding! Best I've had in quite a while. Pulled pork sandwich was great also! Tangy vinegar! Beans also good. Highly recommend!
This is what you need: Pulled Pork Sandwich , slaw is up to you. Mac and Cheese + Jalepeño Cornbread . Bring someone else so you can mooch off their Jalepeño Cheddar Grits . Wash down with cold Crush.
Came (from the Albany area of NY) for dinner on the recommendation of a Cincinnati resident...and absolutely LOVED the food! Turkey melts in your mouth & the mashed potatoes & baked beans are DELISH!
Come prepared: BYOB , cash only , and be sure to bring folding chairs & bug spray if you're sitting out back. The picnic tables fill up and you may end up using a tree stump as a table. Delicious BBQ !
A unique, hipster environment with mouth-watering BBQ & sides. You must try the jalapeño cornbread . As good as Montgomery Inn if not better!
The smoked turkey sandwich is secretly one of the best sandwiches in town . Get one with a pulled pork sandwich & make a 1/2 & 1/2. Byob .
Wow, some of the best pulled pork I've ever had. Ribs are good too, but pork is tops! Also grits and cornbread are amazing.
The first time you go you'll be back again the same week. The food is so good. Simple menu done amazing. Turkey sandwich is a hidden knockout!
BYOB & be sure to go hungry & bring cash. I like the pork sandwich . We've been 2 times for lunch and have gotten carryout for another meal both times.
They have excellent food and a very fair price . If near by it is a must place to eat! The best BBQ in Cincinnati hands down.
I would Share a prodigal growler with Anna Difrank or Mitch or others that like this BBQ . I haven't been yet but will definitely give it a try.
Pulled pork , ribs , jalapeño cornbread , mac, and their BBQ sauce is great.
They have picnic tables set up outside under a tent with fans so its a very casual restaurant . Food is excellent.
It's cash only and bring lots of it because you will try to order everything off the menu because it's that wonderfully delicious.
The best chicken wings I’ve ever eaten in my life. And I’ve had a lot of chicken wings
Oh man, the pork rocks and so do the sides! Baked sweet potato would be an excellent complement to their spicy beans, grits or cornbread !
BYO ! Don't miss the pulled pork or the grits ! I could leave the cornbread .
I could live exclusively off the jalapeño cheddar grits
Everything!!! Pulled pork sandwich is the best ????
Ribs were fantastic and loved the kitschy retro charm to the place
Pulled pork is to die for. Get the dirty Mac and cheese , too. Eli's is such a hidden gem !
Was very good.. Had the pulled pork .. Was very good. Recommend anytime????????
Jalapeño Cheddar Grits are a great add on to ribs and Cole Slaw !
This is the best place in the universe and I could eat there everyday
Everything, but I would recommend the BBQ sandwich and cornbread . Yummy!
Ribs , fantastic outdoor seating when weather is good.
Everything is awesome! Jalapeño Grits especially of course BBQ !
Pulled pork with slaw and sides of mac & cheese with jalapeño grits !
Love the pulled pork sandwich . All the sides are good too.
Cash only ! BYOB ! Pulled pork sandwich , corn bread , and Mac and cheese is a must!
Excellent BBQ , and you can BYOB . This is a place worth making into a regular stop.
Don't write off the hot dogs because they sound boring... They're outstanding
Overtakes Jim Dandy's as best BBQ in town . The ribs are different but fantastic. Hard to go wrong here.
The greatest bbq in Cincinnati . I always go for the hot dogs .
Excellent! Cash only - hit an ATM on the way.
Get your side "dirty " which is added pork shavings. $1 extra. Worth it.
Everything is good. But the hot dogs are superb.
Everything, incredible barbeque . Fantastic slaw .
Best bbq in Cincinnati . Cash only , BYOB .
Food is extremely good and it's reasonable priced
Must get the BBQ hot dogs and cheese grits !
Great BBQ but consider calling ahead if you're in a hurry. Popularity = long wait times.
Love the turkey sandwich and the jalepeno cornbread
The dirty dogs with all beef hotdogs , pulled pork and coleslaw--yummmmm
Best BBQ in the city- it's byob and bands outside-- summer perfection
Pulled pork ' and the best spice of life.
Their brisket nachos are delicious and big enough to be a meal. The St. Louis Ribs are great. Service is wonderful. - R B
Burnt bellies were amazing. The brisket was also very good. Good choice of sauce but the meat doesn’t need any help - Tonya Stanley
Amazing open air ball park, close to the river so the view is pretty great too - Kevin Vincent
Pretty much everything here is delicious. Try the Turtle Sundae - especially good! - Jeremy Goldman
Come early and come hungry on Saturdays. Bourchards in the middle of the indoor market makes fantastic breakfast omelettes to order any way you want with fresh ingredients. - Sara Kowatch
