Partial to the rib tips. Price is good for all u get. I like the corn bread but sometimes it fall apart. The place is clean. Service is decent, wait time is worth it. read more

Food portions were ok, kinda pricy but I'm willing to pay to support black owned businesses. However it to 20-30 to receive our order and had to wait in a line outside of the establishment for the order. It was sunny and hot out. The restaurant is really small and holds only ordering customers, to actually get the order you have to wait outside. Ridiculous. SMDH read more

Smh 2nd experience with this restaurant in years. This is not it food was overly salted, over cooked if this is soul food I truly feel sorry for them souls. If the seasonings are corrected this would be amazing. The rice was not it at all tasteless. The ambiance was great customer service outstanding. read more

Unfortunately tried this restaurant twice. There will not be a third. Both times the cornbread was burned to the the point of being inedible. The macaroni and cheese was very salty . Three dinners and one dessert for $72 and the majority went in the trash . Very disappointing . The fact that you have to pick up your food at a window next to garbage cans is definitely a turnoff ​ read more

Wonderful food! We have been working our way through the menu, ordering two meals to take out once a month, and the food portion are so huge that we can split one meal between us with no room for their delicious desert! Highly recommend, the food is delicious and the service is wonderful!!! read more

First time there, love the ambiance, portion size was great. I got the oxtail dinner and I couldn't finish it because it was too salty. I was extremely disappointed . The gravy it was in was too salty and it canceled out the taste of the meat. There are so many other "healthy" seasonings than salt to make the food taste better. read more

I ordered the Whiting Meal with double cabbage. The food was tasty and the portion size was grand. I will continue to order my fried fish read more

Awesome soul food. Everything i have eaten at this restaurant is soo delicious. Customer service is good too.

Great food. Good pricing. The oxtails is to die for. Friendly staff. The ambiance is great also.

I've ordered out quite a few times and haven't been disappointed yet. The meat loaf is great and honestly is enough for two meals. The sides are purdy good, still haven't tried all of them yet but I'm working on it . Country Boy recommended read more

6:15 and I come here to grab takeout and they say they are closed. Everywhere online says they are open until 7 today and they denied me. As I sit to look for a new place to grab dinner, they are still working? I wish the restaurants in this area served until it says they will.... It's dinner time for all sake.... Serve dinner- it's not like I was coming up to the door at 9pm. read more

All I can say is: WOW! Walked in and was presented with the menu of the day. Most of the dishes are out in the deli case so you can see them before ordering. I went with the baby back ribs meal and chose the yams for a side. When my order was called I was handed a bag that easily weighed 2 pounds: Smoked ribs, yellow rice, beans, cornbread, and sweet yams. The ribs were heavily smoked with a very savory rub. The smoke and rub flavor penetrated all the way to the bone- much better than some of the other bbq in town. Their sauce is great too- sweet & heat reminds me of Nashville style bbq. Don't sleep on the beans! Those were probably the best side dish I have had in the city (including restaurants that cost twice as much). Perfectly balanced seasonings with smoked pork and a rich base. I couldn't finish my meal as it was so large, so I got to enjoy it again as dinner and attached is a photo. Note: Some of the bad reviews on here are really just people who were screwed over by the food delivery apps. Those apps are shady- they list restaurants without their consent and show menu items that the restaurant doesn't even have that day. They don't have a bathroom and they don't seem to do phone or online orders. If you need those then maybe you should just dine somewhere else. read more

My favorite from scratch cooked food restaurants in the Cincinnati area. Just Cookin BBQ has such a wonderful variety of selections to choose from. And I have been pleased with all of my purchases. Thank you for such great meals, when I don't feel like cooking myself! read more

Just cooking bbq, well I wish they was just cooking bbq for me and my family. New menu items daily, very nice customer service. Owner came out from kitchen and greeted and welcomed everyone. Something you don't see in todays age. Reminds me of my grandparents way of cooking that seems to be all but lost. read more

See all

Food is absolutely AMAZING, and staff are so friendly!! Will absolutely be stopping in again. Thank you Aunesty for your kind service!

Been there once, and my goodness. I'll be back. Portions are generous to say the least. Menu changes daily from what I gather. Food very hard to get though. They don't take phone orders usually. They don't deliver via DoorDash or anyone else. Only chance ya really seem to have to drive there and wait in line and hope you get something. They kinda be like the soup Nazi on Seinfeld. read more

The food is mediocre and that's being nice. It's ok to go to when you don't feel like cooking but don't be looking for no real good seasoned soul food. This isn't that. Just to fill your tummy on a lazy day. I was disappointed. read more

This is homemade cooking I remember growing up if anyone is looking for that home cooked meal that your mom/grandmother used to make this is the place. read more

I went to this restaurant for a very long time,the food is great,but I had an encounter with one of the family members that decided what was going to be on my plate after I ordered it,and when I called back she was so unprofessional,, avoid the aunt on the register at all times but everyone is nice,and took forever giving a refund,this has happened to other people,why should I be different,they have such a good business,but she has had alot of problems with people atitude adjustment read more

I'm extremely mad that I didn't know about this place earlier. I'm in cincy for the summer and all I've been able to find is mid-tasting food...BUT DAMN DID THAT CHANGE. The Mac N Cheese was the best damn thing I've ever tasted. It brought me closer to the one and only The cornbread? DE-FUCKIN-LICIOUS. As a Hispanic, I can vouch that the beans were also just as good. Pricing made me feel like I was in 2019:) Overall 10/10. read more

I placed a door dash order and received notification my order was ready for pick up only to arrive and not only it order not ready they aren't "taking doordash orders today" I have never had their food and now I never will. Customer service was definitely lacking, and no apologizes were given for time wasted or for misleading information via door dash. If you want to run a business in the 21st century you should learn how to turn off your internet ordering bc my time and now maybe my money is wasted bc it appears my card was charged for a meal that was never prepared. read more

I am so done with Just Cooking. I ordered a dinner which consisted of yams (and they was full of strings) scalloped potatoes and (they were hard, half done) chicken that was supposed to be baked and tasted like it was boiled. Called and gave my complaint and the lady told me thanks for trying them out and that they do not do refunds. Lol. Only us would give that kind of response. My daughter and I buy from them quite often especially on Sundays, but no more for me. I'm done. read more
