    Fuego sandwich and a side ($5) of Mac n Cheese (2oz of each meat)
    Andy G.

    Real talk. Norwood Location @ Factory 52 Gatherall I was expecting a lot more from Lucius Q. Not great, but not bad. I gave the Fuego a try. B- at best and the Mac N Cheese was a C+. DEFINITELY not a $5 Mac n cheese, maybe $3. While the Fuego sandwich was tasty It was more salty than anything. The sausage was tasteless, BUT the brisket was HEAVLY salted. Possibly will go back, but not gonna go out of my way to do so.

    Great food and service! Would definitely come back. The Pendleton Porker was awesome!

    Menu from Pendleton location 1/29/25.

    Had a great dinner at LuciusQ's Pendleton location earlier this week - a friend wanted to check it out in prep for a party he's planning. Service was attentive, fast and friendly, parking was adjacent -on the street or in a huge lot just across the street. The exposed brick, string lights and reclaimed wood trim added intriguing authenticity. But the FOOD! Absolutely delicious! I had the most amazing smoked Turkey sandwich (one of several meats on their menu,) with my choice from their five homemade bbq sauces. Think of an excuse to stop in; it's definitely worth the trip!

    Hot Mess Fries w/Carolina Gold BBQ

    Great selections of BBQ, cannot go wrong with their menu. I got the Hot Mess Fries, which is a fun starchy protein mix up. The pulled pork was tender and the corn queso is just fun texture to the mix.

    Burnt ends with corn

    Great little spot for bbq. Generous portions. We got take out and were happy to find bbq in the area vs having to drive down to OTR or Blue Ash. Burnt ends are flavorful. The sides are standard and solid. Brisket was nice too but didn't come with sauce. Maybe we had to get that on our own some where but missed that. They are in the new Norwood food hall so parking is simple and plenty of seating for crowds and gatherings.

    Brisket & Mac

    I've had the OTR location at least 3 times and I've always loved it. The excitement I felt walking into Gatherall & BOOM, I spot Lucius Q right away. My excitement was so real. I gave the main location a 4 but I'm bumping them up to a 5. I was disappointed with the Mac before but this Mac was right with my soul this time around. The brisket was fire as usual. Small menu here with turkey, burnt ends, pulled pork and I don't remember the rest. Turning out to be in my top 5 for BBQ places in Cincy.

    Yep, it's open at Factory 52. Enjoyed a turkey dinner and cole slaw. It was quite tasty! Neat little food court with fast service. Can't wait until they built this out further.

    Perfectly cooked and flavored BBQ meats! Sides are generously portioned and pricing is very fair for the quality /amount of food you get!

    Bee’s Barbecue - Madisonville - 1/2 slab of ribs, brisket, pulled pork, green beans, baked beans and brisket chili

    Bee’s Barbecue - Madisonville

    I haves lived in Madisonville for 26 years. I guess I'm part of the 'gentrification' but let's not…read morego there huh. Today I craved a good pulled pork sandwich. Bee's BBQ was nearby & the right obvious choice. Located down a side street off the main drags - Madison & Whetzel - the small quirky storefront is really a 'hole in the wall' operation. Stepping into the place (don't hit your noggin on the door closer ) you'll find yourself standing in the lobby / counter area the size of a Russian golag prison cell. Get cozy with all the other customer / order placers because you'll literally be squeezed next to them like a sardine in a tin can. But none of this really matters because it's all about the experience right! You'll see the menu board - old fashion style - showing the offerings & its price. I got pulled pork & it was just $9. To make it even better.. you can get pickles and or onion put on it for FREE!! To make it even more crazy... I was told that a bag of Grippo's chips is tossed in as well. Who knew? That's all I feel like writing for now so call me if you want to know more

    Go get it, while they've got it, because it won't last long!…read more Bee's consistently has got it going on! It's quite a drive for me, at 40 minutes, but it is worth every delicious bite. Over my visits there, I've had the brisket, ribs, baked beans, cornbread and a few other items. The ribs are fantastic. Juicy and seasoned to perfection. They're meaty and satisfying in every way. I have to say the same about the brisket. A good portion, sliced beautifully and tastes as good as it looks. Almost every BBQ joint can occasionally have a day where maybe the meat was left on the smoker 5 minutes too long. And anyone who knows smoked meats knows that minutes can make a big difference. I've not yet had that experience at Bee's. Now, this Bee's location is very unassuming. It's smack dab in the middle of a residential neighborhood and if you blink while driving down the street, you'll miss it. It has always amazed me how such a small place can bust out so much great food. There is no restaurant seating. It is a walk in with a simple counter right at the front entrance. They do have a number of picnic tables outside, so if the weather's nice, you can enjoy your food outside. If not, you'll probably have to take it home. And good luck getting all the way home without diving into the bag and eating in the car. It's nearly impossible to smell that delicious fog of smoked ecstasy that is permeating the fabric of your car without your mouth watering out of control. Go ahead and try it. Good luck with that. Here's my only negative thing with Bee's, and I must stress that this is merely a personal preference. I feel that their sauce falls a little flat. I do like my BBQ sauce to have a little kick, a little sweet and some tang with it. I've always found Bee's sauce to be just a little on the bland side. There's a catch to this though - the MEAT makes the meal. Good meat doesn't really need sauce. But, again as a personal preference, I do like a good BBQ sauce to compliment the meat. Would I go back? Let's just say that the 40 minute drive is actually healthy for me. If it was any closer, I am highly confident that I would have astronomical blood pressure and gridlocked arteries. No question. But I go back every single time that I'm in the area and also whenever I can't shake the thought of it. Pro Tip: Get there early and/or call ahead. Calling ahead may not always get you the results you need though. I have tried before and receive their voice mail. It's a small operation and, no doubt, they're busy slinging the golden meats of the Gods. You may also want to check their Facebook page for any announcements. There was at least one time that I tried to go and they were closed. They announced this closing on their website, but I hadn't thought ahead enough to check.
