Stopped by for lunch and everything tasted great. Food was nice and hot as well. Mashed potatoes were a pleasant surprise and the corn was pretty good. The pulled pork was awesome. Unfortunately, they didn't have brisket.

The food at this place was decent, but nothing that really stood out. The flavors were okay, but I was expecting something more memorable from a BBQ spot. Unfortunately, we had to wait for about an hour for our food, which really impacted the experience. The portion sizes were also on the smaller side, especially considering the price. It’s not a bad place, but it didn’t quite live up to the expectations.

I'm sure it was because it was extremely late but the food was okay honestly. I got smoked wings and cheddar grits. LOVED the cheddar grits, wings were fine but everything there is sweet even the mild BBQ sauce is sweet. I like a tangy BBQ so I think this just isn't a perfect match for my preference but if you like the sweeter BBQ flvors with a lot of yummy smoke then you'll love this place. Staff was pretty cool too!

Eli's is my choice for barbecue, I love everything about the ribs. The ribs are delicious, and the sauce is heaven. The meat is tender, super flavorful, and I love ALL of the sides. I haven't found ribs in Cincinnati that compare to Eli's .

The meat is pretty good but I cannot wrap my head around how TERRIBLE the sides are. The Mac and Cheese tastes like glue. The cornbread is dryer than a college freshman's post geeb throat. So disappointing. Ive had better sides in prison.

This was probably my fifth time eating at Eli’s, with the last time having been 5 or so years ago. I expected to be disappointed. Great things often get worse. It’s normal. Boy was I wrong! Eli’s food and atmosphere was better than ever. The baked beans are maybe the best I’ve ever had. The pulled pork, jalapeño grits, and ribs were all amazing.
