Passing through and decided to give Rustic Pig BBQ a whirl. It's not much to look at -- it's…read moreattached to a convenience store -- but the place was clean and the food was surprisingly good. Service was good but nothing to write home about. Hubby got a sliced beef sandwich with garlic mashed potatoes, and I had two pork sliders. The BBQ was great! The only miss was the garlic mashed potatoes. They were dry as sand. Definitely don't order those! We'd absolutely eat here again -- just skipping the mashed potatoes next time.

Let's begin with the good. The customer service was excellent! I walked in and after looking over…read morethe menu for a few minutes I was greeted and asked if I had any questions, which I appreciated so much. Even though the ambiance kind of reminded me of a gas station restaurant. I finally settled on the two meat plate which had half a slab of ribs and smoked pork sausage which I was told was smoked right there at the restaurant. I placed my order which came with a 20oz drink, a dessert "banana" pudding, and barbecue beans. The ribs were okay super tender and falling off the bone but the flavor was lacking. I really appreciated all the different types and flavors of sauce but that couldn't save the ribs. As a person who grew up eating my mother's homemade banana pudding, I couldn't even try to eat what they were calling "banana" pudding. The barbecue beans had too many beans in it and no meat, for some reason I thought there would be meat in the barbecue beans. All this to say, I was underwhelmed by every part of this experience besides the customer service. I even asked a guy who was throwing away his empty food tray "how was it?" His reply was excellent? Maybe in Idaho? After all "good" and "bad" is relative. I don't think I need to have this experience again.

They do have a spicier dry rub on them but their two BBQ sauces we used on them - one a more mustardy type and the other more traditional - balanced out their flavor. Their baked beans are the absolute best. We thought the coleslaw could be a tad sweeter, but that's a personal preference. The price for two, even without the delivery tip was on the pricier side.

I will also say the hours are until 8 PM but several times they have turned away to go orders starting at 4 PM. I don't understand the difference between offering someone to dine in or to go. If it's a small order, I could just put the food in it to go box myself at the table..... if there's a reason they're not taking to go orders they need to state what it is. About the flavor difference I don't know the potatoes taste different. The burnt ends taste different. The brisket taste different. They have also made several menu changes and changes to how they advertise in the actual brick-and-mortar location. With all these changes over the last six years, it just does not feel or taste like the same restaurant. And I'm turned off by the refusal of to go orders. I would much rather drive down the street to the other barbecue location.

When we arrived around 1:30 p.m., a young gentleman greeted us and let us know they close at 2:00 p.m. before seating us. Unfortunately, they had already sold out of the cinnamon rolls. There appear to be two dining rooms, so I'm not sure if only our side was closing or if the entire restaurant closes then. The food was good overall, but it wasn't seasoned much at all. I found their house seasoning blend on the table just as I was finishing my meal. I wish I'd noticed it sooner because I think it would have made a big difference. Our server was friendly and attentive, and our food came out quickly. The restaurant has a cozy, family-owned feel with lots of charming decorations, heartwarming quotes, and family photos throughout the dining room. One of my favorites was the sign that read, "I Love You Like Biscuits and Gravy." It was such a cute touch that perfectly fit the warm, cozy atmosphere. If I'm in the area again, I'll call ahead to see if they have cinnamon rolls before making the trip.

We finally are forced to just throw out orders at her non-responsive face. We joke about having waited for an intro & she continues to stare. Very strange encounter, neither of us have ever experienced this anywhere in our lives. It was almost as if she could not deign to greet us. Then when the food came out, they forgot the needed tartar sauce then did an instant 180 and walked away before I could also ask for needed silverware. Don't expect any real service here, it's like waitress & waiters light. The food? Fine & why this is a 3-star review. Not worth the experience. Won't go back. Ordering at the counter before service is served also required a tip. Asking for a tip before proving this level of service is scammy.

One took the outside seating, the other opted to wait as well. We watched at least 6+ parties leaving, but we continued to wait. After 35 minutes, we were finally seated....and there were several empty booths around us. It took almost 10 minutes before our server arrived, so we had our orders ready. Drinks came about 10 minutes after ordering. Dinner came out at 7:15 pm. We had no idea this experience would be this long. Food looked great, but after one bite into my Cajun chicken club, I was really disappointed. The chicken was stringy-dry (at least my jaw got a workout) and the buns were borderline burnt instead of toasted. All the other ingredients (bacon, lettuce, tomato, cheese) were fresh and thankfully, enabled me to eat most of the sandwich. We rarely saw our server and both me and my husband ran out of drinks (we even finished off both waters) before she showed up for a refill. We didn't leave there until almost 8pm. Server was very nice, but the pace was a tad too slow...to the point of being absent. Hubby enjoyed his Tavern burger.
