This has to be one of the ABSOLUTE worst bbq places I have ever tried. The inside is sad and uninviting, the bbq sauce I used im pretty positive was just store bought sweet baby rays bbq from a kroger.... No home made sauces to try just one store bought bbq sauce... the sides were all just terrible and very cold and bland. I was excited for good bbq close to me but this was a huge disappointment. They had bad cleanliness reviews as well from the health department. Very unfortunate.

It was incredibly disappointing given the other reviews. I ordered a 2-rib lunch, and the ribs were…read morejust tough and dry and had almost no meat on them. They gave me three instead of two, maybe because they could see the quality just wasn't there. I just really was expecting GREAT ribs, and what I got was probably the worst I've eaten. I feel like the answer to, "Hey, these ribs have no meat on them and are dried out" shouldn't be "so let's give her an extra one." The answer should be "Let's not serve these." Given that other reviews are so positive, I'll probably give it another try, but I'm afraid I'm not in a major hurry to get there again.

With teams like this restaurants don't just get good and profitable they become landmarks. Great d bless you guys. Oh and Pam, I won Best BBQ in Cincinnati 1992 and my cousin won Memphis in May, your sauces are sublime. They need more promotion and descriptions on the next iteration of the menu.

The corn muffins had a nice flavor. I could actually eat two of them. The server was extremely friendly, helpful, and attentive. The patio is nice and open, but the inside of the restaurant has zero character. It gives old-country-BBQ-restaurant-that's-not-in-the-country, so it feels out of place. Flavor was seriously lacking with the creamy Mac & Cheese and the cole slaw. Salt and pepper were my friends today. What was supposed to be the star performers let me down. 1. To begin...the meat samplers were actually small for the price. 2. The pulled chicken seemed more minced than anything. There was some flavor there, but it was just too dry for me. You have to smother it in BBQ sauce. 3. The problem is the BBQ meats had a chill on them, and when the chicken's chopped that small, it cools off almost instantly, so you're stuck eating lukewarm-to-cold meat. 4. The beef brisket was dried out too. This place was a one and done for me.

I had the El Jefe and my companion had the pulled pork with coleslaw. First off, calling the El Jefe a sandwich is selling that bad boy short. This is a meat sampler platter on a bun; pulled pork, brisket, sausage and 2 ribs (actually got 3!). Honestly, this could easily be a meal for 2 people. All meats were juicy and not slathered in sauce; not a sauce guy so this was ideal! It did come with a side of sauce if you need to cover up well smoked, tasty meats. I really liked the buns too. They had a nice sweetness to them. My companion, loved her pulled pork w/slaw sammie too! We shared a pint of green beans. I thought they were very good, she thought they were too peppery but she always says that as she's not fond of pepper. Oh well, what are you gonna do... at least she has good taste in men. All in all, an outstanding meal at a fair price. If you're in the mood for some bbq done right and in the area, give Harmon's a try. You will not be disappointed.

So I came back couple days later to get myself one. And let me tell you, I love it so much I have to order another one right after I finish the first one. Because this place still new to me, I didn't realize they close at 8:00. I called at 7:50 to order.... The front desk kindly told me that they'll be closing in 10 minutes and ask if I can make it. Luckily I'm just around the corner. So I got there, Leah; and another girl that I didn't catch her name, were very sweet. Hand me my food, telling me it's ok as I apologize for barely made it at closing time. And there you go, this place just takes a seat in my heart just like that. And yes, the space look bright and charming. Totally a great space to hang out for a minute.

I wouldn't return, especially with Eli's right down the street. The brisket was not good, and that…read morewas the main reason I chose Pig Candy over Eli's in the first place. The pulled pork was very mediocre, although I will say the white sauce made it much better. It looks like they put effort into what they're doing, but unfortunately, they don't seem to understand how to properly season and smoke good BBQ. Luckily for them, most people around Cincinnati don't know what good BBQ is supposed to taste like. The sausage was very good. Assuming they don't make that in house. I hate leaving a negative review, but with prices this high, the food should be much better.

The ribs were absolutely incredible... tender, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. Sometimes the best restaurants are the ones you find by accident, and this was definitely one of those hidden gems.

At first glance, the portion also felt a little small. That said, by the end of the meal I was surprisingly full, so it ended up being more substantial than it looked. The sides were the stars. Don't skip the pickles. They have a nice crunch and a sneaky spicy kick that really cuts through the richness of the barbecue. The green beans were packed with salty pork goodness, and the potato casserole was easily the best thing on the table. Potatoes, cheese, and a crunchy topping? Hard to go wrong with that combination. I heard a few others things, too: The peach cobbler got positive feedback, the pulled pork sounded a little dry, and the special sandwich was apparently very good, though absolutely massive.

As we were ordering we we asked if we had any questions or if we wanted to try any sauce. We made our order to go, smokehouse club pulled pork, and the brisket Mac-n-cheese. After we ordered we were asked if we needed anything, we were told we were fourth on the order board and it was ok to sit somewhere while we waited. The food is yummy, yummy. I love the club it's a salad with pulled pork, something love. Richelle said she yummy loved the brisket Mac-n-cheese. If you get it to go it will not look pretty when you get it home, see my picture, it was all mixed up but that is how Richelle would have eaten it any way. Fantastic food, Fantastic service, indoor and outdoor dining area. I think there were a few beer choices too.
