Let start out by saying... I can't breathe... cause I ate too much!!! I had the half chicken plate including the corn and greens. I liked the mexican seasoning on the corn, and greens were very tasty. Oh I forgot to mention the ribtips. A must at happy hour. Â Did I mention I can't breathe... More...

Fantastic service and awesome food. The sauce was flavorful without being too hot. The potions were generous. The fries were perfectly done.

Went in last night for dinner with my spouse and it was a good experience overall.Food that we ordered were the pulled pork sliders which were actually really really good and wings. The spicy bbq sauce for wings was so damn good. The two beers my wife and I tried were great, they were the featured beers on tap Lastly the server was on POINT! She continuously checked up on us and answered any questions we had in detail. She was great! 1 side note was that the other server that was handling the customers around us was less then enthusiastic... so just be aware of that. All in all would def go back if I needed a place for a quick bite and a beer More...

We had the pulled  pork plate, with a side of brisket and the smoked portobello sandwich! Awesome spot to hit for a post potato chip rock hike meal. ...now I need to go hike again to burn off all these calories! All of the service was great and the bartender was extremely helpful with beer recommendations. More...

Best BBQ I've had in a very long time. Ribs fell off the bone and had a great char crust. Also this is the first time I've found anyone outside the south who knows how to cook collard greens ; they were delicious! Â We will be back... Often! More...

Ya'll, the smell in the restaurant alone was worth it. Love being able to smell all the meats being smoke. Per my husband (who is not violent) states, "this platter makes me want to punch a vegetarian in their face for missing out on all of this awesomeness! " Â We got the meat madness platter to split between my mom, husband, and myself. Plenty of food and could have shared it with 1-2 more people. Definitely got our moneys worth! We got the beans and cheesy smashed potatoes as the side. So good! We, also, ordered the macaroni and cheese. It was so cheesy and ooey gooey! If we weren't visiting, I would have totally taken those leftovers home! We, then, took a chance with the seasonal cobbler on the menu for dessert! It was peach cobbler. It was more like a bread pudding consistency, but the dash of cinnamon was unique! The place wasn't that busy for a Saturday evening, which was surprising for the amazing food and atmosphere. Next time, we make a trip here - we will, hands down, be making a meal date here!! More...

Best BBQ in PB. The brisket does vary in quality but I'm good with that because it's always good. I eat here all the time to get my BBQ fix and avoid the long lines at that other place in Sports Area

We came here last Tuesday and I was happy to see that the place wasn't packed with people.The decor is so cute, very country Americana style. There are TVs all around the restaurant and the bar area (perfect for football season). The table for two could be larger but we were so uncomfortable.The food portions were pretty big, we were able to share (my favorite part of going out to eat). The chicken wings were so different, they didn't really had sauce on them. I would say slightly on the dry side but overall great taste. The baby-back ribs were so good! The meat just falls off the bone and was so juicy. The potato salad makes perfect side dish and of course you gotta order a pickle. Overall the service was great except, even after we covered the bill we weren't ready to leave yet so we sat chatting some more, the server didn't offer more water after, I feel like we just got completely ignored :( Â I was thirsty but the guy was busy with one or two new customers and didnt swing our way anymore. Other than that, this place was bomb and we are coming back. More...

Delicious food even though it was served late in the late evening. BBQ was cooked perfect and didn't come smothered in with sweet BBQ sauce. Much more flavorful served the way they do it here. More...

There's a reason Iron Pig is so highly rated. Â Great beer selection, delicious food, and some of the most genuinely nicest people you'll find anywhere. Â Get the brisket burrito- I thought it was going to be good, but I wasn't prepared for just how good. More...

I took my bestie here her choice for birthday Barbecue! Wow this place did not disappoint. From the featured $5 beer to the meats everything was delish. We tried the meat sampler and had a bit of it all. For sides we opted for mashed cheesy potatoes, which were okay. Sounded better than they tasted. The greens were really bomb, and I am a greens snob. No one makes em better than my sis in law. We also shared the coleslaw. Â We really enjoyed it. Texas toast was great! Will return for HH and drink more! More...

Went here today with the family after a football game. Read the reviews on yelp. We were really surprised at how good all of the food was. We had the brisket tacos (very good) the smoked wings (very good) the brisket burrito (excellent), the pulled pork plate w/beans n potato salad (very good), and the baby back ribs w/greens and mash (excellent). Does this place challenge Phil's bbq? That's just a matter of taste... everything is smoked here with great portion size. The food is definitely good and our server Joel was very nice and professional. Great Job More...

Visiting from Texas, and we know our Mexican food (burritos) and BBQ. When the waitress told me to order the brisket burrito I was hesitant, didn't want to be dissappointed. BUT it was AMAZING! This is a "must" for anyone passing through here. And much better than the burrito place next door. Give it a try, you taste buds and belly will thank you. More...

The happy hour is fantastic! Atmosphere is cool and service was great. We ordered the slider, the tacos, and the salad and all were so good and only $5 each. They have an amazon selection on alcohol, even alcoholic kombucha. We stayed in mission bay for 2 nights and we went to Iron Pig Alehouse both nights. More...

Gem of a restaurant. Traveled from out of town for a soccer tournament and our team needed somewhere that could fit all of us for dinner (group of 50). We were able to make a reservation. Service was awesome and our waitress was very friendly. She kept everything organized. Food came out lightning quick. Probably the fastest bbq restaurant we've ever been to. I ordered the massive meat platter ($40) which comes with pulled pork, pulled chicken, brisket, and ribs, 2 sides and a texas toast. So much food and could easily be shared by at 2 people. Also ordered the brisket dinner. OMG, some of the best brisket you'll have. Brisket was juicy! It was so good even my picky daughter enjoyed every bite. Good variety for side options...cheesy mash, potato salad, collard greens. Everything was fresh and so good. I just can't say enough good things about this restaurant. Thank you Iron Pig, would definitely eat here again! More...

"6 out of 5," my husband says! We got married over the weekend and ordered the pulled chicken, brisket, and a couple of sides to be delivered. The service was so positive while working out how much food to order for the size of our party, and delivery was amazing as well. The brisket went off really well, and people were going back for seconds and thirds for all of it! This restaurant was one of our favorites when we lived in PB and whenever we are in the area we stop in for some food! Thank you! More...

Well-deserved 5 stars. We didn't need a reservation for me + 4 kids, and service was friendly and fast.But the food.Goodness, the food. I ordered wings for the kids. They stopped fighting, tucked in, and DEVOURED the things. Seriously, there may be bbq sauce in their hair.My teenage boy LOVED his portobello burger, and The Girl called the burrito the best shed ever had.My rib tips disappeared without a trace.So good. Soooo good. More...
