We decided to try out this little bbq joint Fort Wright. They had lots of the bbq favourites such as smoked turkey, sausages, ribs, and more. I went with the smoked wings with hot bbq sauce (you could get regular bbq or just dry as well). They were huge wings and absolutely delicious. They smoked them to perfection and the bbq sauce was hearty and flavourful. I got a baked potato with cheese as a side and I really liked it as well. My wife got smoked turkey and sausage and really enjoyed that. The service was excellent and the restaurant really looked and smelled awesome. This was an excellent lunch and we will definitely be back. read more

I thought I'd done a review for here before but somehow I never posted. I really enjoy food from this spot. The ribs are so tender and seasoned to perfection. They also have some of the best banana pudding I've had from a restaurant. There is plenty of seating inside, big enough for a group event and it's not a rowdy type of establishment. I've eaten here quite a bit and can say I'm a regular. They have good sides to go with their delicious meat options. read more

Picked up a slab of ribs and brisket. Both were reheated and doused in sauce to mask the flavor. The staff and hot bbq sauce were the highlights. read more

Pretty average barbecue. Clearly it is a crowd favorite, by 6 pm the line was out the door! Though I imagine the Fish Fry Friday had something to do with it. We got the dry rub smoked wings, brisket, sausage, fries, potato salad, coleslaw, baked beans and ofcourse fish fry. There wasn't anything I would return for. The best was the fish fry but again like all barbecue places, prices were inflated. My family loves brisket and they found it unedible unfortunately. read more

The Barbeque is smoked on site. Always what you want to look for in a good Que place. The pulled pork was perfect; tender, flavorful, not fatty or greasy, superb! One sauce choice, but it's just the right blend of sweet and sassy. Sides are always good here-today we got the delicious baked beans that you can tell are made from scratch, as well as the homemade mac and cheese. We topped it off with fresh brewed sweet tea! This family owned business always has great fast friendly service in a casual setting. read more

I know this place has been open for a while but finally stopped by for dinner. Can't believe I haven't been before but was pleasantly surprised. Had the pick two meats. Ribs were fall off bone and jalapeño sausage so good. Sauce is a bit sweet but not bad. Green beans were pretty good, needed some salt but like the choice to add myself. Creamed corn was good but seemed a bit undercooked. Staff was super friendly! Order was quick as well. $18 bucks a bit steep but welcome to inflation! Will be back read more

Harmon's Barbecue - Pork Ribs 1/2 Rack Single Creamed Corn grew Jalapeno Sausage - Barbeque Near Me - Fort Mitchell, Kentucky

First time out here on a weekend foodie adventure. I have had BBQ all over the USA, and by FAR, this is one of the very best. The wings had just enough sweet and heat and char buffed to make them amazing. Brisket was tender and flavorful- didn't even need a knife. Pulled pork? Phenomenal. And then the sides. I tried the mustard based potato salad and smoked green beans. Holy cow were they great. This is family owned and operated (per the sign on the wall), and the customer service is fantastic. One type of BBQ sauce offered, and it is so good, why would you need more than one? So pleasantly surprised- and so very happy my husband found this place today! read more

Harmon's Barbecue - Brisket and fries - Barbeque Near Me - Fort Mitchell, Kentucky

We picked up bbq while we were out on vacay and took it back to our hotel room. Unfortunately, we got someone else's order. I did call the restaurant and they made it right by having the manager call me back to verify and refund me my money. Now, this order was way more food than we ordered, so we made out on this. But it's impressive that the manager himself called to make things right. Good on ya, Harmons. read more

This little gem is where you'd expect it to be... in a tiny strip mall in small town America. You order at the counter & they call your name for pick-up. But, the staff were friendly & helpful. Food is simple but very good. Texas BBQ. I had the pulled pork & jalapeño sausage. I'll be back. read more

The food was hot and accurate. I didn't taste anything spectacular. Both times we tried to come they were out of turkey breast. The creamed corn was the most flavorful. There's not a lot of added spices or flavor. The cornbread tasted like yellow cake. The service was fast. There's picnic tables and plastic plates. There's televisions for eating sports and outdoor tables. read more

Harmon's Barbecue - Two single meat plates-cornbread and Cole slaw cost additional - Barbeque Near Me - Fort Mitchell, Kentucky

We were in town for a concert and decided to give Harmon's a try. We were not disappointed. We did carry-out and both ordered sandwiches. 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. read more

Bbq is great, try the baked beans and the sweet potato as a side. Don't forget to order the banana pudding

Delicious barbecue at a decent price ... it doesn't get much better than that! We've eaten at Harmon's a few times since discovering this Ft. Mitchell favorite last summer. They're great with both dine-in and carry-out. If you opt to dine-in, enjoy their casual, elbows-on-the-table atmosphere where anyone is welcome. Having spent several years living in Texas, I consider myself somewhat of a BBQ aficionado, and this place is doing it right. My favorite thing on their menu is the loaded potato - topped with either pulled pork or brisket. Like any good barbecue joint - you have to stop in early in order to get the meat you want - because they often run out of their top-sellers. The smoked wings are also a must-order - they're delicious served dry, but I love the barbecue sauce too much to ever order them that way. As for their sides, the creamed corn is decent, the green beans are tasty, and my husband loves their Mac N' Cheese. read more

I have a hard time giving 5 stars when I have to consider my own BBQ but, I can't do what they do with brisket. This place is AMAZING! Great flavor and smoke! They do a great job and the El Jefe is FANTASTIC! read more

First time here and won't be the last. The cornbread is sweet and to die for. Generous potions. Will stop back when I am in the area again!

Went for the first time last night and glad we did. Everything was excellent. I had the 3 meat plate with brisket, pulled pork, and sausage. All were fantastic. Best Texas style BBQ I've had outside of Texas. Will definitely be back...soon and often! read more

Parking is easy and plentiful. The restaurant well laid out, easy to navigate and appointed as one would expect of a barbecue restaurant. Spacious tables and comfortable chairs. The staff very responsive providing quick service. The food was excellent. We had turkey, brisket, smoked sausage and ribs with a a host of sides. Honestly some of the best barbecue and sauce I have had for a long time. Well worth patronizing this family restaurant! Prices better than other barbecue restaurants in the area-especially considering the quality and quantity of food. Will definitely bring family and friends again! Thank you. read more

I ordered food for 40$! What I received was a shame! Overcooked, old green beans! Barely any meat. Shame on YOU! read more

The food at Harmon's Barbeque was amazing! I was traveling across the country and wanted something filling but not heavy. The meat was perfectly cooked and very flavorful. There is a large selection of sides. I had a sweet potato that was absolutely fabulous!! The staff was very friendly and accommodating. I highly recommend this restaurant!! read more

What's the one place you recommend to anyone who will listen? For me, it's Harmon's BBQ. I talked yet another friend into going today and just had to write a review while the experience was fresh in my mind. You walk in and a glorious wall of smokiness hits you. That smell cannot be replicated artificially and you just know as soon as it hits you that the food is going to be amazing. The portion sizes are great for the price. You can tell everything is handmade, and every meat I've had there has been perfection. My favorite is the turkey. Today my friend tried the pulled pork and it was incredibly tender and smoky. He actually bookmarked the restaurant on his phone because he agrees this place is the real deal. I just realized I forgot to get another favorite of mine, the banana pudding, while I was there today. Guess I have an excuse to go back sooner than later. I literally told them when I left that I love them and hope they never go out of business. True definition of an underrated gem! Sorry I didn't take a pic of my food because I inhaled it too quickly. read more

Good, but not true Texan. If you're used to authentic TX BBQ, you'll be disappointed. Pros: the fries and creamed corn were great. The meat itself was good. Cons: the cornbread was yellow cake; worst than our fav box mixes. I enjoyed the BBQ sauce (I like sweet) but my 2 Texan friends gave it a big thumbs down. The biggest disappointment was - we were told they were sold ouit of sliced brisket (at 6:30pm). But then 30 min. later a family sat next to us with a plate full. Just one opinion of many...you may love it! read more

Great food, nice environment, quick service. Best BBQ we have had in NKY. We will be back.

I have been craving legit BBQ for quite some time and I even bought myself a Kamado Joe Jr. to start learning how to do it at home. Let's just say it's been a bit chilly to smoke at home. Not too cold for me to stop trying, just too cold to produce legit results as a rookie. My barber told me about this shop and I went on a Fridee afternoon, right around lunchtime. They are doing a good job of spacing tables 6 feet apart and sanitizer is available. All the staff are wearing masks, which is a good sign these days. I ordered a 2 meat plate, with brisket and ribs. 2 sides, mac n cheese and baked beans. Brisket was thick, fatty, with really nice chunky bark. Really well done and tasted great! Ribs were thick cut, nice tender porky goodness. BBQ sauce is a bit on the sweet side, but decent either way. Mac N Cheese was okay and it's not their fault. Large batch mac n cheese is difficult to pull off because when it's ready and served hot, that's when it's at it's best. After 10 minutes, the train starts to leave the tracks and the acceleration is rapid from then on. Baked beans were a medley of beans, rather than the standard pinto beans you typically see. They mixed it some pulled pork and maybe even some burnt ends too. Super good! Now, here is where the ship starts to sail in the wrong direction. I went back a week or so later, on a Saturdee night around 7. Not terribly busy, but lots of folks picking up take-out plates. I order and sit down and hear a faint voice calling out names. I don't think she said my name, but I couldn't make it out. So, I walk over and ask if they called Hector. Blank stare for what felt like a good 8 seconds. "Yeah, I did. You already got your food." (I blink quickly, as not to curse) "Actually, I didn't." She blank stares me again and says I did. She calls someone over to help and turns out, they gave my grub to someone else who left already. Not an issue. I can wait. They serve up the food in a few minutes and I take it back to get my grub on. Brisket was pathetic and resembled slivers of meat, rather than slices. Flavor was decent, but I paid good money honey. This is lame. Hey! At least I have ribs too! Well, I kinda sorta had ribs. I actually had an itsy bitsy teenie weenie bit of something that may have been ribs at some point. Not cool. So, moral of the story is. Y'all got me. And to quote the not so great Dubya. "Fool me once... shame on... shame on you??? Fool me I ain't gonna git fooled again." Bye Felicia read more

Harmon's Barbecue - 2 meat plate with 2 sides Ribs and brisket with mac n cheese and baked beans Helllllllllllla good - Barbeque Near Me - Fort Mitchell, Kentucky

Everything went well here the brisket that we got was prepared perfectly and then they catered an event for my family later that month

Got the 2 meat plate with sides and cornbread. Love the pulled pork and brisket and bbq sauce. Green beans delicious also. So disappointed in the Mac and cheese. Kraft box for kids would have been better. Gotta mention the cornbread. Tasted like a piece of box cake mix. Not like cornbread. At all. Add some vanilla icing and it would have been dessert. Lunch for 3 with banana pudding was $76. Little pricy read more

I'm really happy with this restaurant, the food is great, the service is professional, the facility is clean and the people working here are attentive and friendly. Yes the prices feel a little higher, but that's everywhere now. I feel comfortable with the quantity and portion sizes. I love the brisket and spicy sausage. I'll definitely be back. Good to know they are family owned and operated, I'm happy to support with my appetite. read more

Excellent. I had the sliced brisket sandwich it was so good. I will continue to visit this shop.

In our search for a great southern BBQ place upon moving to Kentucky, we tried a few highly rated Yelp places and finally found Harmon's. Can't comment on ambiance or service because we ordered it on DoorDash but I have nothing but praise for the food! We ordered everything from brisket to pulled pork to slaw to beans and cornbread and everything was absolutely delicious. I loved how all the flavors of all the main and side dishes complemented each other so well and really came together for a wonderful meal. The cornbread was moist, fluffy and delicious. The meats were smoked well, texture great and very scrumptious. Can't wait to eat here again! read more

Incredible BBq, one of the best I've had. I had brisket and turkey and they were both some of the best I've had. Slaw was on point and the single bbq sauce was just rite. Good job Harmon's! read more
