We ordered wings, mac and cheese, jalapeño grits, and rib tips. The best thing was the sauce that came on the side. Neat was very dry, overcooked or from last week.

We stopped here during our Findlay market outing. We heard so much about this place. We ordered two pulled pork sandwiches and baked beans. After checking twice on our order during the 20 minutes of wait time I again checked on our order and found it waiting in a hot box. Although the portions were large and looked appetizing the sandwiches were disappointing. The pork was dry and tasteless. I do not particularly enjoy BBQ sauce but found the sandwich inedible without it. The baked beans were a little too spicy for our liking. Because of the limited menu and our experience we will not return.

The best BBQ in Cincinnati hands down. I haven't had anything here I don't rant and rave about! The jalapeno cornbread is top notch. I will return many times.

First time at Eli's BBQ and I'm completely sold! The smoked turkey was phenomenal - perfectly tender with amazing flavor. Service was excellent, with friendly and attentive staff. Will definitely be back for more soon!

Let me start by saying when they are on, these are my favorite ribs that I've ever had anywhere! That being said, what we were just served today was absolute garbage!!!
They were micro-ribs, tiny and lacking any real meat. Probably half the size of the ribs we received the last time we went. I love Eli's, but after this ordeal, I'm done for awhile. Zero consistency!!! Soooo disappointing!!!!

I came in to pick up an uber order today, and noticed an extremely nasty attitude from the cashier towards all of the black people who entered. First encounter was a white male trying to pay for a homeless black man’s food, and she proceeded to tell him he didn’t need to feed him, and looked at him in disgust. Also a customer next to me was disrespected, and ignored and I decided to speak up for her because her feelings were hurt. The young woman at the counter needs to be fired if she doesn’t know how to speak to the public.

I just want to say I came in from shopping at the market and the young lady at the register said I should try the ribs…Life changing!!!! I walked back in and grabbed a slab, please do your self and whoever you love a favor and come grab a slab for them to.. they will love you and you will love yourself even more.. I was visiting Cincinnati and left falling in love with a rib:)

Pulled pork sandwich was excellent with great smoke flavor and plentiful. The jalapeño corn bread lacked jalapeño flavor but was great tasting and big portion. The loaded hot dog was well seasoned and flavorful. No seating inside the location as it is carry out only.

I’ve only experienced Eli’s through delivery apps I’m not sure what the atmosphere is like. The food however is delicious! I opted for the Pulled pork sandwich, baked beans, jalapeno cornbread, and slaw. My sandwich came with a mountain of savory pulled pork. I mean MOUNTAIN! Everything was just delicious!
