This is by far my fav BBQ joint in Jacksonville, we typically snobs as it relates to our BBQ but we have found our BBQ MOJO right here. We order the whole hog and there is always plenty tybto take home. The side items are so delicious that they can be meals all the themselves.

University location ONLY! As much as I LOVE your food, the people who make it are VERY inconsistant as far as portions (the university blvd location ONLY). I go there all the time and have complained before about this as some of them might recognise my name and my order (Nachos). Sometimes there are a lot of Nachos and a little meat (which is an absoulte rip off) and other times they give me a ton of meat and a ton of cheese and normal amount of nachos (which makes you lose money). I always get the same response, "were sorry but we do weigh it and it should be the same every time". IT IS NOT. They offer to put more on if im shorted, but I always decline because all I'm asking for is consistancy (and I tell them that). How much is the meat amount supposed to weigh anyway, no cusotmer knows so why do i care about that answer unless they weigh it in front of me? Tonight I ordered something else, the small dinner with brisket and pork. I received 2 slice of brisket and about 2 or 3 ounces of pork which was about a small palm full (by estimate) FOR $17! I am unsure if this is a normal portion and the server was fantastic about it, but I got the same old answer, they do weigh it. If this is the normal portion for $17, I feel ripped off but in a whole new way. Not by an employees mistake but by Mojos. Currently my boss (who used to buy from Mojos on Beach) boycotted ordering your catering because she received in her words HORRIBLE customer service from those guys. That REALLY stinks because we cant get the catering anymore! I will continue to order food from here until I just break and boycott you myself because I feel you have some great employees like the host and the guy server who worked the closing shift today (8/25/15). Some of them do care but others are NOT doing their job. If that means sometimes I wont get a huge amount of meat in my Nachos, THATS FINE, I dont need them lol. I just need consistancy in portions and possibly even portion amounts stated in the menu (which can be great for marketing).Thanks for reading.

On the last night of our cross country trip we stopped in Jacksonville for the night. I googled BBQ restaurant near me and this gem popped up! It has totally captured the Texas BBQ experience. Inside decor was well thought out. I ordered the chicken and hubby ordered the Baby Back Ribs. They knocked it out of the park! The sides were baked beans, coleslaw, collard greens, and side salad. Oh yeah baby! Awesome. Then the icing on the cake was the Texas Toast. You k ow we will return.

My review is based solely on buisness practices and food quality. Our waiter was awesome and the restaurant was clean.

I'm a native to Jacksonville and I'm tired of watching awesome 5 star restaurants turn into subpar tourist traps once they get a few good ratings. Mojo's used to serve fantastic and plentiful portions. They have always been pricy but also worth that price. My last visit saw them go from 5 stars to 2 as they have turned from a great restaurant into a wanna-be sports bar.

For $18 I could get the chicken smokehouse platter and have enough food for at least 2+ meals. It was the size of 2 chicken breast with 4 pieces of bacon. It was a meal worth $18 based on quality and quantity.

Now you still pay $18 but get 1/2 the meal. The quality wasn't as bad as Mcdonald's but I'd put it right above Chili's with Orsay prices. The green beans tasted canned. The chicken was less tender, more gamey and dry; as though it had been frozen too long and the moisture was ripped from it. The salad tasted old, like I was eating what was left of a bad batch before they opened a fresh bag.

I went around 5:30-6pm on a Monday afternoon. These were lunch portions served at dinner time with dinner pricing.

It might just be this Mojos. I have been to all of them (this one a few times) and this is the first bad experience. It's also been a year or so since I've been here. This might be an isolated incident or the way they do buisbusi now. I'm willing to try another location but until then, buyer beware, you can get better food at Chili's or one of those national corporate chains sadly.

First time. Excellent food. I had Brisket Dinner including Burnt ends, bbq beans and Black-eyed Peas. Virtually no fat what so ever on the Brisket. And the Black-eyed Peas killer wife had a Pulled-pork salad. Portions were very good. Couldn't eat another bite. Bit pricey...but the food was excellent. Hope it's always like this will definitely go again. Btw the way...didn't catch our waiters name, but a cool black-guy. Very good waiter.
Only recommendation, they carry ice-burg lettuce as a option for the salads. We personally, are not a fan of trees n bushes

About 15 of us went to dinner last night. It was somewhat of a family/friend reunion. Our server, Owen, did a fabulous job waiting on our group. Even though, we all kept moving around and he had to keep track of who was with who, he didn't miss a beat. So polite and friendly. The food was also very good. Thanks Mojo's

Catering: WATCH YOUR LIQUOR!!! They catered our wedding in November 2018. The food and service was actually really good. Unfortunately, the servers stole all of our leftover liquor. 2 handles of Smirnoff, 2 handles of Bacardi, a handle of Evan Williams, and a handle of Patron. Very disappointed after that experience.

The server named Michelle at the university/san jose location. Was simply amazing!!!!!!!
I took a group of senior ladies to dinner and she was absolutely FABULOUS with taking her time listening and not to mention very respectful. Not something you come across much in this day and age.

Used to love this place, but the food quality has been going downhill for a while. You'll be rolling the dice here-- sometimes your meat will come out like youd expect, but many times your food will be dried out and hard to chew. I suspect they leave food out for long stretches of time to become so dried out, so its all about timing. In my opinion, this is totally unacceptable from an establishment that charges a premium price for their food.

My family and I decided to try out this place yesterday for dinner. My husband ordered a hamburger and fries. He always cuts his hamburgers in half when eating out to make sure their done. (Smart man!) As soon as he did blood was dripping out. It wasn't done at ALL. I ordered a pork sandwich with Mac & cheese. I almost broke my tooth on a VERY hard piece of noodle. The entire bowl was like that. It must have been sitting there for a WHILE! My two year old ate a peanut butter and jelly sandwich off the Kids meal. It was pretty much a Jelly sandwich. At one point she was literally choking on the jelly. We don't get to eat out a whole lot..so to say we were very disappointed would be an understatement. We wont be back.

Best BBQ in town. We went in during the dinner hours, but it was surprisingly not packed. The food was out minutes after we ordered it and IT WAS AMAZING!!

Our waitress, Mary Joy, was the most amazing waitress anyone could ask for. Wonderful service. I will definitely be back again.

Finally got seated. Left after about 10 minutes of waiting, because no one even acknowledged us. I think every server walked past us at least three times, not one word. Dining room was not busy, and we were the only ones that had not even placed a drink order.
