Came with some friends. Food was amazing. The ribs were cooked perfectly, the beans were excellent and the potato salad was incredible. The BBQ sauce was good. The pulled pork was excellent as well. The French fries were also great. The restaurant seating was quaint and the place isn't very big. But it was clean and the music was good.

Food was not desirable at all! Better off at a Sonny's or elsewhere. The pork had no flavor, the potato salad was meh. All the food had dry rub sprinkled on to give it flavor. The bathrooms were disgusting. Just go somewhere else!

First meal in Memphis, wow great meal - we shared a jumbo pulled pork sandwich and fries, both of us were full. Megan our server was fantastic, plus she explained why the jumbo price was less! They want you to eat more for less!! Wow don't miss this place!!

We’re visiting from Chicago, so our expectations were high. The food was very good! We order the Super Feast and were not disappointed. Food was hot, tender, and delicious! Get the potato salad it’s definitely a must try.

Delicious barbeque in Memphis! Ordered the BBQ sampler, plenty of food for 2 if you order an extra side. I'm biased toward the saucier KC style, but The Pig made a proper showing of the dry rub style. Beans were unique with jalapeno. I love spicy food so it was not a problem but maybe avoid if that's not your thing. Service was prompt. A bit pricey for barbeque, but that's Beale Street for ya.

After the basketball game my S/O and I were looking for somewhere to eat. Almost every bar n grill looked full. This young man standing at the door of the Pig on Beale and reeled us in. I was not craving BBQ but it sure hit the spot. I got the smoked chicken with greens and potato salad. My spouse got the pulled pork with fries. A bonus they had a live band that Rocked!!! The staff was friendly and welcoming. This was definitely a good experience!
