When I moved to Jacksonville in 2000 this was my favorite ribs place. Meat simply fell off the bones and the fries were extremely tasty. I went there the first part of 2024 and not quite the same. Good but not the same. read more

Only 2 tables were sat, but neither the sole waitress or ghostess would get us a menu or drink. We Walked out after 10 mins of watching the ghostus pick her nose. Lovely. Apparently management could care less. I called corporate but nobody answers. Glad I'm not an investor. Run by fools and staffed by kids who care less. read more

Only gave one star because I had to give it something. Service is awful. Ordered to go. Was told it would be 20 minutes. 45 minutes later I was still waiting on food. Stood at front register for 10 minutes before anyone even came out from the back to wait on me. Ridiculous. read more

Great Brisket . The smoked corn is great pro tip: mix in Mac and cheese. The wifey loves the blacked catfish .

My first and it will not be my last. The barbecue is awesome here. I really like it. I ordered the two-meat combo and picked the beef brisket and North Carolina pork. Their beef brisket was so tender and moist. You only need a fork to slice through the meat and with ease. The North Carolina pork is exactly how I remembered Carolina bbq, vinegary flavor. The taste was perfect. For the sides, I paired the meats with collard greens and green beans. They looked and tasted fresh. Fast service too. We ordered our food and devoured them within thirty minutes. That's nice especially if you're on an hour lunch break limit. The place gets packed quickly. I would recommend getting there a little early to avoid the rush. It wasn't that bad yet when we pulled in at 11:40 AM. read more

I have been to one of the other locations and decided since I was in the area to give this Mojos a try. The place was empty even though it was lunch which rather surprised me. Sat down immediately and was waited on quickly. Service was cordial and respectful. She got the drinks then put in our order of burnt ends. We also ordered for the entree a q salad which is a barbecue salad with your choice of turkey, pork, chicken, brisket or pork. The ends came out quickly, but were only room temperature. For the price, there was a lot of fat that was included and of course not eaten. The taste was good, but just not worth the money. Our salads came out. I ordered shredded pork on mine with blue cheese dressing. My salad was good, but lacked in meat, it was a nice portion of lettuce, cucumbers and tomatoes, but fell short with pork. That being said, the pork was good tender and tasty, the best was the dressing. Absolutely the best blue cheese. My husband got another salad with beef brisket and said a good portion of the meat was fatty. Just disappointed because we love mojos but understand it may have been an off day!! Hopefully they will get this rectified and put out the quality of barbecue that mojos is usually serving. read more

Our experience has always been good. Their food is reliably good, southern bbq style with tasty sides (vegetables!!!) and we've been regular customers for years, both for takeout and eat in. Service is good, staff is friendly and helpful. Ambiance is what you would expect at a cue joint. Love the down to earth funky artwork. We love the place. Doesn't try to be anything but what it is. read more

Two words - BURNT ENDS This is THE go to place for burnt ends in Jacksonville - hands down. They also do a great job with their onion rings, sweet potato mash, and collards This is also my go to place for a BBQ salad. I usually get turkey and pork for the proteins and it's just perfect. read more

The stew was okay and the boom boom shrimp was decent. The drinks were not great to me. But with that being said,apparently they are set up to have live bands. That made it more appealing for a future visit when they bring that back read more

My family came here because it is close to my Fathers home and he loves BBQ. The Waitress was too notch. I failed to remember name, but she was good. The sweet tea was very sweet. We all had the lunch menu, and it in my opinion was pricey. I ordered the Carolina pork with a side salad, bbq beans and Texas toast. I was good and plentiful. $11.50 My brother and sister n law were sweet and treated the entire family. My dad could not hear in there. High ceilings lead to echos. Overall, I would return again, but not sure if my Dad would because of the noise level. I loved the decor in the place. P.S. The Waitress's name is Brooklyn! read more

I ordered a "burnt ends" plate. Burnt ends are the fatty burnt part of a brisket, full of flavor and juicy. I got probably the leanest meat I have ever eaten in my life. The ends were dry and almost no fat at all. Probably the worst burnt ends I have ever eaten. Look at the pic I attached. There is almost no fat on these ends what so ever. This plate cost about $20 because you pay extra to get this part of the brisket. They could've just said they were out or don't know what burnt ends are, even tho they're on the menu. read more

All they hype was around the burnt ends, so I had to try them. They were seasoned very well, but were surprisingly dry. The sauces were good, but not to die for. The mojo sauce was probably the best out of the four. The fries were good, but fried a little too long. Will probably give it another try. read more

Decided to check out this spot our randomly. I must say the food is great and the prices are great. The place was very clean and it's a friendly, upbeat environment to eat at. Nachos were good, multiple can share as it's a large portion. The club sandwich was excellent. Gave it 4 stars as the waiter wasn't great; don't even think he checked on me...however the girl who seated me was super friendly and amazing. read more

The food at Mojos was just outstanding. We enjoyed the burnt ends appetizer and split the whole hawg. Everything was juicy and flavorful. My sister said it's the only place she can find juicy (not dry!) turkey. I don't like turkey so I didn't try but literally everything else was delicious. Can't wait to read more

Delicious! Thank you Mojo BBQ for catering for my sons 1st Birthday. The guests definitely enjoyed the food and we were happy with your service. Since we live in CA, the YELPERS did not disappoint. It was easy to contact them and place our order. It was also great that they delivered the food and set up was fast and efficient. Should we be back in JAX for any future events we will definitely order again. read more

We had a very large party last Wednesday and we had the most amazing dining experience. Our waiter was so kind and so pleasant and very knowledgeable about the menu. We had adult, and kids and our table required a lot of attention and he was right there the whole time. Now let's talk about the food, the turkey, the ribs, the brisket, the onion rings, the sides, the sandwiches, everything is spectacular. This is true barbecue, this is not barbecue made from liquid smoke and you can definitely tell a difference. These dishes were made low and slow. Usually when you go into a barbecue place that is a chain like Bono's, you immediately get hit with the "smoke "smell. That doesn't happen here and it is such an amazing experience. If you have not eaten here yet you are truly missing out. The staff cannot do enough for you and the food is delicious. I only took a couple of photos because I was so hungry when our food arrived so here are their onion rings and they're burnt ends. read more

Mojo Bar-B-Que - All the meats they calling t the whole hawg! Delicious - Barbeque Near Me - Jacksonville, Florida

The best BBQ in town...at least I think so. If you have never tried their smoked wings, then you don't know what you are missing. These are stupid good!! Juicy, flavorful and just the right amount of smoke. Their hand cut fries with great flecks if salt are the the greatest in town. The smoked turkey is moist too. We usually order their smoked corn as well, but we chose a side salad instead, which is made with really fresh greens, tomatoes and other things. The only thing I would recommend is that their cornbread croutons get toasted a little more before being put on a salad, they tend to be somewhat stale and I usually ask them to be excluded. read more

Mojo has been very meh lately. My last few visits had me leaving with an "it was just okay" feeling. We stopped in for a quick dinner tonight as Mojo is just 5 minutes from my home. We walked in and sat ourselves per the sign. I ordered the pulled chicken sandwich and mashed potatoes. The chicken was fine. The potatoes were dry, needed butter and salt. And they had skins which I really dislike. My guy got the dry run ribs with fries and smoked corn. The ribs were dry, he said they didn't seem fresh. The fries were nice and crisp as requested and the corn was normal. When we got the bill, the total was $33. My card came back with a slip run for $50. I brought it to the server's attention. She didn't get the error at first and then realized and fixed it. It didn't seem like it was done on purpose, but I will be double checking my statement. read more

Went here with my boyfriend we both got the brisket. I got Mac and cheese and baked beans. He got Mac and cheese and potato salad. Everything was delicious. The brisket was SUPER tender and delicious. Really good flavor and the perfect amount of fattiness to meatiness. The Mac and cheese was cheesy and creamy. The potato salad was super flavorful and the meals came with Texas toast which was perfectly toasted and delicious. I dipped mine in the bbq. I mixed the mustard with the sweet. GREAT COMBO. The portion sizes were really good and the staff was really polite. All in all a great place and we will be returning! Next time I'll give their onion rings a try they look really good. read more

Was so hoping to discover a local gem but instead found below par experience. Unfortunately, I had to visit the restroom before ordering. Good grief, people. Lack of attention to cleanliness in the restroom is an indication of cleanliness in the kitchen, so my experience was jaded right out of the gate. Every touchable surface was filthy. I ordered chicken nachos. There was very little chicken to be found; just a pile of chips with shredded cheese melted -- and allowed to cool -- on top. Very disappointed. Hubby ordered brisket with corn and sweet potato mash sides. The brisket was dry and the sweet potato mash was overdone with sugar. The waitress was very attentive and the decor interesting. Overall, though, for two below par dishes with diet cokes at $35, just not worth the trip. Just because you own a smoker doesn't mean you should be in the restaurant business. read more

Mojo, you let me down. Been visiting this location since waaaaay back when, when it was easy to get a seat at lunch. My recent visit was disappointing, not due to the food (it was great), but the service. I wasn't greeted when I walked in (register person busy texting on cell phone), nor did I get a "thanks for stopping in" when I departed. I sat at my table for several (more than 5) minutes before a server stopped by, he didn't introduce himself, just asked "you ready?" I gave him my drink order, and meal order when he returned with my drink. The food came out, and was prepared as I asked, but my drink went dry 3 times, and I had to flag a different server down on one occasion to get a refill. Staff seemed to be more interested in interacting with each other than with customers tonight. Some staff, anyway. Again, the food was terrific. The service was not. I know you can do better, Mojo. read more

We love the Mojos in St Augustine and were excited to try this one. However, this restaurant pales in comparison. The pulled pork bbq was a smaller portion than in St Augustine's Mojo restaurant and the sides (mac and cheese, mashed potatoes and gravy) seemed to be just dipped up luke warm. Overall, this meal was mediocre and we probably would not go back to this location again. read more

Lunch time with my friend Jimmy P. I am having North Carolina Pork with mash potatoes with gravy and green beans. Pork: is good, never tried this style before, is a little spicy. Comes with a cabbage dip, very tasty. Mash potatoes: one of the best in town. Simply delicious. Green beans: perfectly cooked with this tasty smoked flavor. Overall, completely satisfied. The best: the mash potatoes. The service was fast despite many customers. The missing: TVs and better illumination. If you like to watch tv while you eat, or do not like dark places, this place might not be for you. read more

Our recent dining experience at MOJO was disappointing. We have always loved going there but sadly will not return as there are much better BBQ restaurants in Jax. I ordered the brisket and it was so dry I could barely eat it. Brisket is my Favorite and I could not believe how bad this was. Do yourself a favor if you are looking for good bbq go to 4 rivers or my personal favorite, the bearded pig! On the plus side, the onion rings are delicious and our server was very friendly. read more

This is the original Mojo Barbecue location and still keeps true to the BBQ, despite what some "elite" tagged reviewers may experience, as a regular since opening in March of 2003, I have experienced the best and worst growing pains, and they are still holding it down here, even with the occasional slip. Beef brisket, pulled pork, and the buttermilk fried chicken with white sawmill style gravy are my go to dishes. The macaroni and cheese still rivals my other favorite BBQ joints around town. Onion rings are probably the best in town, the collards are kicked up just right, and all of their sides have their strengths. When their kitchen is on their A game, this joint is 5 star good. The noise factor is an issue for some people, but it just adds to the atmosphere with the classic blues music piped in while you chow down. Seriously, try this place out, it's among my top 3 joints in town, and hits close to being number 1 more often than not. read more

This seems to be a knock off from Mojo #4 Whiskey Bar & Grill. I say that because a few years back the signage was different and the food was great! I was skeptical because the sign on the building didn't look like the trademark Mojo #4 signage. I went in anyway because I had a hardcore craving BBQ. The food wasn't bad, and nor was it great. It was bbq alright but it just didn't taste like what I was used too. There are far too many amazing bbq restaurants around to go back here. Especially with the service that I was given. read more

Visit Date: 09.06.2010 Had the small pulled pork dinner plate with baked beans and mac and cheese. Tasty stuff, but it's likely best to order during lunchtime, since the same meal is cheaper by a few dollars or so. They also have a variety of sauces.. I'm not really into the Carolina sauces, the sweet bbq sauce is good enough for me! Also ordered a side of banana pudding, which came in a generous sized container, and was absolutely one of the best I've ever had. That's saying something since I love banana pudding. read more

We really like Mojos! My husband is very picky about his BBQ pork sandwiches lol. I'm sorry but that's all we ever get and we devour them. I got the mashed sweet potatoes this time as my side and I think my husband was jealous that he didn't get them. Potato salad is always delicious too. He got baked beans and they were garlicky which we've never tasted before. They were good, just not our taste. read more

I really love MoJo bbq, we come here and always start with the wings appetizer, they are first smoked, rotisserie style, then flash fried ,no sauce and they are so good!
