The Pig On Beale

3 stars sums up the experience pretty well. I had the pulled pork dinner.- Not the best pulled pork, but good- Portions not the biggest, but not small- Service not the best, but certainly not bad- Prices not the cheapest, but not outrageousOn the list of factors I used to judge my experience, this was basically average.I was satisfied, but not thrilled.

After a Stevie Nicks concert, we--and many many others--filed into the Pig for dinner. When we arrived it wasn't too busy but it was packed by the time we left. The aesthetic is hole in the wall, off the map BBQ joint, though it's on Beale and very much in the mix of things. The BBQ was pretty good and plentiful. The service was mediocre (even before it got crowded--nonexistent thereafter), and the price per plate is where it lost another star from me.

Great pulled pork. Spicy BBQ beans. Great live music and old style decor. Service is fast and attentive.

The food is pretty good! This was my first Memphis BBQ experience. The price is very high for what you get, even for a tourist spot. 5 ribs with two sides, a pulled pork sandwich with side and chicken tender kids meal was $75 plus tip. Good atmosphere and the live music was cool.

While passing through Memphis, I looked for a place to get BBQ for dinner. My husband and I tried here because he was specifically in the mood for a pulled pork sandwich. It was because I couldn't narrow down what I wanted that I got the Sampler! The pulled pork was very tender and delicious, and the chicken thighs had an incredible crunchy coating with well seasoned meat. I was slightly disappointed in the ribs, however, because while the sauce was amazing, the meat was not fall of the bone tender. I did enjoy the collard greens, which had a little bit of spice that complimented the meats well. Service was not super fast, but our food did come out quickly once we ordered. This place is not upscale by any means, in desperate need of an updating, but the food is good and worth the stop.

Was looking for a spot to escape the Liberty Bowl parade & hang out for a beer. The Pig seemed a good spot since they offered good bbq & permitted under 21s. We sat ourselves at a booth before the onslaught of folks who swarmed in 15 minutes after us when the parade was over. Lucky we did! We ordered a full rack of bbq ribs & slaw and a local dark amber beer (can't recall the name now) & a sweet tea. The rib order was a long well seasoned & smoked 12 bone slab. Waaay more than we needed! Once we started it was truly hard to stop. They were smoked nicely. Succulent & very flavorful. I especially liked the "SPICY" sauce available on the table. Not really spicy at all but had several layers of flavor that really complimented the rib flesh. If you dipped the meat like sushi & don't drown it...my preference anyway. Go & enjoy. It's simple solid fare & the servers were genuine & friendly.

When I say the food was amazing did a family dinner combo for $64.99 with ribs.. pork bbq.. chicken and 4 sides and definitely well worth it. Service was timely and quick. And atmosphere was typical Beale Street . If in area definitely recommend

My first stop after landing in Memphis. The beer was cold and the BBQ Baloney sandwich with Cole slaw was amazing! My wife and I really enjoyed Pig on Beale and will go back when we return to Memphis.

Real Memphis barbecue on Beale Street. They are a little pricey, but worth it. Tasty pork sandwich with pickles and sauce. $35 for 2 sandwiches. The service was good and fast. I had to hurry since I was on a tour, so I got the sandwiches to go. The restaurant was clean and full of fun iconic pictures.

Drawn in by the big platter that serves 4 for $65.The platter arrived and it looked tasty but it was not. All the food is overcooked on the outside and undercooked in the inside. Ribs were very pink and gummy. Pulled pork was dry and tastes like it's been sitting under heat all day. The chicken was burnt on the outside and pink inside.You're provided cheap plastic utensils that are useless for eating this kind of food, so you're forced to eat with your hands. This makes no sense. The floors are sticky on the dining floor. Why? The servers were the only high point. Doing their best in the situation. Overall regretted the whole experience.
