I would definitely go here again. The Mac and cheese is good, but add brisket or pulled pork and it is awesome. The smothered fries are a must.

Terribly slow service, strange loudly talking religious crowd who were served first even if we arrived before them. The order arrived wrong with uncooked soggy French fries. We got up and left.

This restaurant has some of the best BBQ sliders and ribs I have tasted. The sliders were awesome and filling. Customer service is the best around.

The barbecue ribs were some of the best I've eaten. They have a really good peppery rub. They get smoked for 12 hours, so there is a beautiful smoke ring and they fall right off the bone.The pork sliders were also delicious, especially with the mango slaw.The barbecue beans were delicious. They use a secret ingredient which they will tell you if you eat at the restaurant.The macaroni and cheese was homemade. I could eat that for a meal by itself.The staff was super friendly, and the restaurant is really cute inside.

Great breakfast, best country fried steak I've had in a while. Lunch items are just as good. It is a smaller venue compared to the old location but the food is just as good. Highly recommended for breakfast and lunch, you won't be disappointed.

Brisket was extremely dry! It’s ribs or tough and dry. I ate a few bites and I told the waitress that the food was not acceptable. Man working there not sure if he’s the owner or a manager told me I did not have to pay for it and not to come back to the restaurant. Believe me I will not be back.

Little BBQ joint with big flavor. The buffalo wings were cooked beautifully and the sauce, though not terribly hot, had great flavor. The fried mushrooms had a light and airy batter. The mac & cheese was creamy and the noodles had perfect texture. The brisket grilled cheese was aah-maz-zing!! Sweet potato tots, who does that?! They were sick! The ribs were dry but the sauce took care of that. The staff, a brother-sister duo, were friendly, attentive and knowledgeable. When we walked in and no one was there, we were a little scared and tempted to leave, but we were very glad we decided to stay.

If you’re anywhere near a Wigglin Pig or a Pigglin Wig, it’s best you know what to do with each. If it’s a Wigglin Pig, why of course you eat it. If it’s a Pigglin Wig, you wear it like you would any wig. So, I guess what I’m sayin is you should wander into Wigglin Pig whilst wearing your Pigglin Wig and eat some delicious food. Good luck deciding what to eat off that menu jammed with amazing food selections.

Had BBQ brisket sandwich and cheesy fries. Wife had BLT. Brisket sandwich was good, but fries were covered by too much cheese and not very tasty. BLT was a bit salty. Waitress was terrific.

The location on the east side of Cortez was lovely. We sat out on the porch and there is a little garden area just off the porch. Very peaceful.We ordered the Gouda cheese fries - phenomenal. Don't know why BBQ places haven't done this sooner, the smoky flavor was a great compliment. The. We had the beef brisket and hot diggity dog with fries and coleslaw. The sandwiches were warm and flavorful. The sides were great. Most items are made in house and were well seasoned and fresh. We will definitely check out their weekend breakfast and have dinner here again. Entrees roughly $15 which is consistent with local prices.
