Smoke Justis

My ribs were smoked to perfection and the cocktails were amazing! They were packed but the staff was very accommodating and found a spot for me and my husband in the Bourbon lounge. The lounge was very cool and had a ridiculously huge selection. The bartender who waited on us was very welcoming and attentive. I definitely want to come back and try all their specialty cocktails and get more of that delicious BBQ!

Had the meat plate with pulled pork, Texas sausage, and brisket. Our favorite was the brisket. They also had an amazing selection of bourbon to pair it with!

Great place for an old-fashioned, Bloody Mary, food, and beer. I highly recommend the Mac and Meat (I went with brisket). It was to die for!

Another great experience at Smoke Justis! This is a family favorite when we are coming through town. Their smoked chicken wings are the best I've had. My wife loves their hot brown. I have not found anything I dislike here. The Mac & Meat Bowl was this visit's choice and the homemade Mac n cheese with pulled pork on top was excellent! Can't wait for our next visit

Last night was my first time coming here. I came back today again because I could not get enough of the people and the food. Wings are to die for and the Walt breakfast sandwich was amazing!!! Debbie and Amber are the best servers and made the experience that much better!! Everyone should check this place out!

First experience was for alchemy fest, the building is Absolutely beautiful and the bar was a mile high. I ordered the 3 peice meat platter, and the food came out hot and quick very fair priced. The place was Absolutely packed for this competition but the staff and management were quick on their feet. I have Absolutely zero complaints.

Took my hubs out last night and we are here. They made him an absolutely perfect Long Island Iced Tea! I ordered the pulled pork Mac and Cheese and it was incredIble comfort food! Hubby got the fried catfish sandwich and really enjoyed his meal. The atmosphere was really fun. Beautiful and historic setting! Will come back soon!

I I could give more than 5 stars I would because I am a picky eater. Dustin was the best host we have had since Covid- he knew the menu. The Food truly exceeded my expectation. We decided to go with a variety of meats, Mac is a must try.
Damon the General manager even set up my work Christmas party reservations.
Excellent service and food!

We ate at the bar on Sunday at 12:00 PM. Service was fast, friendly and professional. My buddy had the half pound burger and fries. He thought the burger was great. We both thought the fries could have been better. I had the pound of wings with the sweet and spicy bbq sauce.I don’t think you will be disappointed in anything that you order.

This is my second round of wings here. First time you were really dry, almost burnt. They redeemed themselves This time, they were perfect and I've had good food there before. Great service from, Jacob . I got the wing week special which was smoked wings and garlic parmesan. They have a great selection of bourbon and interesting events.

Debbie and Amber hit it out of the park for us. Debbie Saturday night and Amber Sunday brunch. Great service, friendly and personable servers, and great food. Wings are the best around. Also that sweet & spicy sauce!

I stopped in to watch Thursday night football while in the area on business for a few days... the hostess was very kind and helpful seating me in an area where I could watch the game. My server, Maddy, was very pleasant and considerate in helping me with everything that I needed. The food was delicious and the atmosphere was very enjoyable and vibrant, but not in an overwhelming manner.

First time here and glad we finally went. The chili was by far the best thing I ate. Loved the street tacos, especially the pulled pork and tried his brunch which was also very good. We'll be back again.

went here for the first time after living in Covington for over a year. The live music was entertaining. The atmosphere was great. A variable and well stocked bourbon selection, as well as scotch. Highly recommend the chicken wings and gold sauce. the pickle spears and pretzel loaves were amazing. For a total of four mixed drinks, two beers, and three or four appetizers it was fairly priced for this experience. We sat at the bar, and the service was great.

Brought my aunts here for there grand slam Manhattan and wings. We had a great time and the service was wonderful!

The food NEVER disappoints. Personal favorites are the pretzel sticks (salty, buttery, with yummy cheese sauce), brisket chili, sweet/moist cornbread, sweet baked beans, Mac and cheese with buttery bread crumbs on top. Obviously the meat is good too, but I expect that from a place like this. Also unexpectedly my favorite place to go for a margarita if you like fresh lime and salt.

So impressed with this restaurant. Get service and delicious food. We got the pretzel loaves, which I could’ve eaten all of before dinner came out. We both got a single meat platter- one brisket and one pulled pork. They didn’t give you a knife because you truly don’t need one. Both were tender and delicious. The sauce options are all amazing. All sides were delicious and large portions. Had plenty of leftovers and left with a smile and full tummy!

We had a great time! Food is delicious, servers are attentive and Leroy Ellington was playing in the bar area. Fantastic!

Nice walk from downtown Cincinnati across the bridge. Got there a little after 4, and it was "seat yourself" style. Not crowded, but it was before everybody was off work. Ordered the 3-meat platter and added beans. Had 3 sauces: house, vinegar based and mustard based. Everything was very good, except the greens didn't have any seasoning! If you need a nice BBQ fix, I'd suggest this place!

My absolute favorite BBQ place in the Cincinnati area - and in general! I’ve never had anything from here that wasn’t delicious. Great atmosphere too and the servers are always super kind and attentive.

If I had to make one suggestion - please bring back the side Caesar salad! It was one of the best I’ve ever had!
