It was not bad, just not what I'm looking for in barbecue. The smoked turkey sandwich was tasty and a generous portion. The ribs I was 50-50 on. I don't think the frying is necessary and doesn't add any texture or flavor while also drying them out a little. The mac & cheese and mashed potato sides were not good but not awful. Overall, I would not return here again by myself but if I was with friends and they were dead set on coming here I would give it another...

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!

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:)
