C&M BBQ Grill

I was looking for ox tails and this place looked like a good option. I got the ox tail meal and the Jerk checking. The ox tails came with greens and rice, and the jerk chicken came with cabbage and rice.I was disappointed with the everything except the greens. I got 3 ox tails but they did not have a good taste or texture, seemed overcooked and sadly the rice was undercooked for both meals. The jerk chicken was okay but it was mostly fat instead of meat.

I ordered here through Doordash based on reviews and a coupon. I am so glad I did. I got the half rack of ribs, and when I tell you they were tender OMG. Fall off the bone. I'm super picky about ribs and these were next level. I also ordered a side of greens, Mac and cheese, cornbread, and fried plantains . Greens were pretty good. They were flavorful with a kick. I was not a fan of the Mac and cheese, although I really wanted to be. Cornbread was fine. Plantains we're good. Next time I will order the rib meal again with greens and plantains.

I have eaten here more than once and plan to go back. The sides aren't anything out of the ordinary but the rib tips and oxtails (Small portion, I believe you get 1 small and 1 large) are very good and well seasoned. A previous visit the oxtails were on the salty side. They were perfect this This is an updated review. The portion size this trip was 1 oxtail and 2 potatoes. Unfortunately, the sides were overwhelming with garlic from the jar. They tasted vinegary, including the Mac n cheese. I couldn't eat them.

Craving west Indian cuisine and I was referred to C&M's. My meal was great. They offer housemade bbq sauce that range mild to HOTT. You can dine in but for the space available, takeout may be best. I wish the side portions were larger but the cornbread make up for it.

Wow, Wow,and Wow!Comfort food at its best! My Mr and I wanted some Homestyle Caribbean BBQ and this place came up on yelp. Tons of great reviews that we had to try it!We walked in and loved the laid back atmosphere. Super small place but cozy decorated vintage with a twist of Jamaican flair. They have an outdoor patio in the front if you want to enjoy your meal outside. The owners son was super FRIENDLY and accommodating. I was indecisive with the type of sauce I wanted on my pulled pork and he let me try it. I had tons of questions and he was very patient with me .I made up my mind and decided to order the Pulled pork (hot bbq sauce instead of mild) dinner for $8.00 and as my two sides I got French fries and cornbread. My Mr. ordered the jerk chicken dinner as for his two sides he got Mac & Cheese and greens for $10.00. The desserts in the fridge looked so good that we had to grab the peach cobbler. When we got home, all we can smell was the goodness in the bag.The cornbread was super moist and definitely homemade, the pulled pork was tender and had great flavor!!! My Mr enjoyed his meal. At the end he was full and had a huge smile on his face.Besides BBQ, they do offer seafood and sandwiches at a reasonable price. A great selection of foods on their menu that you have to try them all.Thanks C&M for the great experience. We are definitely coming back!

I remember trying this place when I first moved to Cincinnati because it's conveniently right around the corner and wanted to try it based on all the good reviews, I remember disliking half of my meal but liking the other half , I remember the macaroni and cheese being pretty good and the cornbread being the best I've ever had fast forward to today and still kind of mixed reviews because once again I liked some parts and disliked other parts , the macaroni this time wasn't that great it was very oily ? Potato salad was good and the hot dog was good , the Jamaican beef patty was tough asf , cornbread was decent , I'll probably try again as I always give places a three strikes and your out type of thing not gonna say it's great but it's good I think I just need to keep trying different things from them til I get a niche for something I like

C&M BBQ is located in northern Cincinnati. Its a bit of a haul to drive...but the scenery was nice. The restaurant is located in non-discript strip mall flanked by a beauty salon and a thrift store. The spot is more of a pick-up spot, though there are tables and chairs for sit in sating. Inside there are beautiful paintings and nostalgic displays...its actually very interesting. For food we ordered a little bit of everything. BBQ chicken, jerk chicken, BBQ ribs and curry chicken. I would say by far, their Jamaican food is awesome. I'm not a big fan of drumsticks and was disappointed when my jerk chicken consisted of two huge drumsticks, however they were so good and tender I quickly got over my disdain for drumsticks. There bbq items was ok. It wasn't bad, it just wasn't exciting. It was clear when I met the owner that they were Jamaican by ancestry and thus their Jamaican food outshined their bbq. The curry chicken was also wonderful, saucy with enough spice to taste the curry but mild enough for the "I don't do hot and spicy" crowd. The cost and portion size was very much appreciated. A jerk chicken dinner was $10. In times bbq dinners are reaching $12-16 a dinner with tiny side portions $10 with huge sides were a welcome site. The dinners came with two sides. We opted for macaroni and cheese, which was good but not great, plantains, which was awesome, and cabbage which was crispy and flavorful. Upon my return to Cincinnati I would revisit C&M Grill. Definitely worth the money.

I got carry out for the first time here on Saturday and it was amazing! The catfish dinner (flaky and thick) and the jerk chicken dinner (seasoned perfectly) were great. I will be back because the prices are fair. My only complaint would be I received green beans instead of greens, but the green beans were delicious!

I bought the the oxtail as a surprise for my Jamaican friend and she said the food was too spicy and there wasn't enough of the oxtail (3 small pieces to be exact). The sides were in little small containers. It was not worth the money I paid. I will never order from them again.

I was out shopping for clothes at a second hand store in the Norwood area and then I brought my wife some flowers for our 6 month anniversary and I also brought a brand new vacuum this particular day because I felt that I deserved a new one. I had a vacuum prior but this day something told me to pull the trigger. So I did and all was well. I had positive energy and I said: self let's get some bbq while I'm out and on this side. It was maybe 1:40 pm. I work at 3:30pm. I Googled bbq and this place stood out. Let me tell you. The meals were horrible. I got rib tips, Sweet potatoes and potato salad for myself. Turkey chops sweet potatoes and potatoe salad for my wife. This crap SUCKS. I had a fifty dollar bill and they had no change so I paid with my debit card and tipped the joint, and they tacked on $2 or so for the credit transaction. So 37 buck for crap. Only thing that was good was the store brought potatoes salad. I felt bad for my wife having to taste that crap after the beautiful flowers and all. Eat some potted meat and crackers yo. Save your bread ($). FACTS
