What a find! Beautiful hole in wall in downtown Jackson. Walked in @ 1930 and they had posted that they would be closing @ 2000. Was promptly greeted and shown to a booth. Staff came by with the menu and I ordered a coke (FYI they do have a full bar). They brought the coke and I then ordered the breaded pork tenderloin with sweet potato fries. When my meal arrived I was impressed (see picture). That's no frozen mass produced pork tenderloin, that is a fresh cut, pounded and breaded one right there. Served with all the right fix'ns (pickles, thinly sliced white onion and sliced tomato). Tenderloin was bigger than the bun (a must for a good pork tenderloin). The fries were great too. Don't quote me, but I do believe that they were fresh sweet potato fries as well. I will be back! read more

This place did not look like much, however this place was amazing from start to finish. Great service, the sandwiches and sides were all outstanding, the desert was the star. What I can only surmise to be a chocolate caramel poke cake. If I ever pass through this area again I will be back. read more

I ate here with some friends from work and they warned me about the huge sizes but I underestimated how big the sandwich was. It was delicious. read more

Read on a racing forum about this place serving food out at the race track. surprised that my northern relatives had never heard of their downtown Jackson location. Since we were on the Okoboji area we headed north and thought we would give it a try. We had a breaded tenderloin ( God's gift to Iowans ) a Navajo Taco and a pulled pork BBQ sandwich. All were very good and this is a must return when we are back in the area! read more

I was doing some business in Jackson Minnesota and some of the locals recommended Kats hog heaven , I was greeted very nicely and took a place at the bar. The owner I believe Donnie was very informative of the type of ribs they were serving that evening. They were great. More than one person could normally eat. I would recommend them 100% for anyoneI wanted great barbecue read more

I just love Kats! Food is always good. The workers always pleasant!!!I would recommend this place!!

A friend and I are currently driving cross-country back to school at Yale. We needed a place with FREE Wi-Fi and good food, saw this on Yelp, and decided to stop in... Glad we did! The food was a delicious (I had the Hot Dog -- not nearly as basic as it sounds), portions were quite sizeable, and Donny, the owner, was a great host! Plus they have a full bar and a couple regional craft beers on tap. I highly recommend anyone driving by to stop in, less than 5 minutes off the interstate. read more

MUST STOP IF TRAVELING ON I-90!! Was craving some bbq on our way from Ohio to South Dakota, and this place delivered! The owner (Donny) was awesome, gave us the origin story of the place, told us all about how he makes the food, and brought out some pork rinds for us to try. Super nice guy who can deliver on promises of good food. We got the ribs and pork tenderloin and more sides than we could ever finish (baked beans, cornbread, jalapeño poppers, pigs ears, salad, coleslaw, sweet potato fries, yummmm). Ribs fell off the bone, pork tenderloin was the juiciest I've ever had. Awesome local business we were lucky to stumble upon and glad to support read more

Stopped in on a road trip for supper with three grandchildren. With only a few tables of customers, we had to wait 45 minutes for our meal to be served. No explanation, no apology. The food was good, but not worth the wait. Should have gone to Burger King. read more

I visit Jackson several times a year. Every time, I insist on going to Hog Heaven. The food is fabulous, hearty and well-priced. I've tried many things on the menu, but always go back to the pork burger and the Cuban sandwich. Last night I had a cup of sausage chowder. It was hearty, tasty and great during this brutal winter. The interior is cozy and updated. The staff is friendly. My only criticism -- and this may be out-of-date -- is that they don't know how to mix a complex cocktail. Stick with something simple, and you'll be okay. read more

Had the pork lion the first time traveling through that brought us back... this time they were trying a new creation I called "burger experiment #7" they had a different name for it. Pork burger cream cheese and other ingredients, it was awesome. I love a place that will try new things. Great people great food reasonably priced. 5 stars! read more

Great food and amazing staff. Pork rinds are on point and they have the coldest beer. My favorite thing to eat is the grilled tenderloin sandwich or the grilled pork loin. read more

We called ahead looking for a meal for 10 for the next day. Donnie was gracious and helpful! He made great suggestions on how much to order. Donnie packed up the food in an insulated catering bag all ready for us heat and serve! It was reasonable priced and very yummy!! read more

Went and ate there for lunch with my Fiancee and where in the world do I start? I guess with the good first oh wait there is no good, fries had no seasoning on them at all seemed like the oil hasn't been changed in months not even salt pepper or ketchup could help them fries yuck! Then I ordered a Cuban and I'm sorry if your gonna make a certain sandwich please please know what the heck your doing or don't do it at all! Further more it seemed like they used the microwave to heat up stuff just gross! Kate's Hog Heaven more like Hog Hell!!! This place is a prime example of what happens when someone has to much money and then sits down and watches Food Network and tells them self oh I can do that let's open a restaurant and try not to kill people or make them sicker then crap!!! I've worked in the restaurant business for years my last job was a restaurant constituent and if I stilled did that I would close the doors to this place and teach these people how to really do pork right!!! Jeffery Graham Very unhappy customer read more

Stopped here on the way back to the twin cities from a business trip. The place had great reviews so we wondered down to check it out. The bbq sandwich was amazing. The BBQ sauce was flavorful with a touch of pineapple sweet. The owner served us and was very engaged and polite. Excellent little spot for some good BBQ! If you're reading this, head on down and check this place out. read more

This is my favorite place to dine. Food is awesome, portions are generous. Staff is friendly, very helpful and courteous. Place is spotless. read more

Excellent food, good selection of local beers from Luvern, MN and New Ulm, MN. Both draft and bottle. Barbecue was excellent. Appetizers were great, a little pricey, but no more than other places. Overall, I will go again when I am in the area. read more

Great place to join friends for a bite. Service was excellent and the food was perfectly done. I had the Navajo Taco, which was the perfect size to fill me up without feeling over stuffed. It include taco sauce with just the right amount of zip. My friend had a pulled pork sandwich with pickles and jalapeños added. The bun was piled high with meat and she said it was very good. A great compliment considering she's from Texas and accustomed to good BBQ. I will definitely make a stop here the next time I'm in town. read more

This place is great!! He was patient and answered all our questions. So sweet. You have to try the bacon Cole slaw. Everything we ordered was excellent. Highly recommend this wonderful little spot. read more

Wonderful food every time. Nice quiet atmosphere with great local decorations, handmade furniture and locally owned :) lovely variety on the menu with a little bit for every one. Clean and one of the best places to eat in Jackson MN- and I live here haha read more

Great service. Good food. BLT was the special and it was very good. Friends enjoyed their meals, too.

First off it's not a bbq joint. But I did enjoy everything about that place. Had the local beer on draft it was delicious. Then I had the HOG DOG! So good. Fries were like homemade shoestring they were great. Def check it out. Everybody was nice and let us change the channel at the bar. read more

Great food and a very clean restaurant with an all pork menu. They also carry beer from a local brewery.

The food was average the place is done up nicely but one would think if you get something to go they would send you some napkins and some condiments for your product. I had the pork tenderloin which was overcooked it was a nice portion size but I've had better. read more

Great little restaurant. All rhe food we saw come out looked great. We had indian tacos. Pork is cut into chunks and fried. Delicious!

If you love breaded tenderloin sandwiches you need to try Hog Heaven. They make a great one! Cute little restaurant and nice owner.

Er. Ma. Gerd y'all! We came through Jackson on our way from Missouri to my sister's house and my mom Yelped to find us a restaurant to stop and eat supper before the last leg of the trip. This place and it's owner/chef/waiter was AMAZING!! I was having trouble deciding what I wanted and he helped me make a decision (and it was definitely the right one!). I had the Navajo taco and a few Angry Orchard Hard Ciders, and it was damn near perfection. My dad had the special of the day, which was the Jamaican Me Crazy burger and the hand cut fries, and was super happy with both. My mom had the fried pork tenderloin and the bacon coleslaw (which was SO damn good). He even stayed around and talked to us for quite awhile about where we were headed and how he knew folks from there. And when we mentioned that it was her birthday to try and get her to get a beer, (which she of course refused), he brought her a big to-go cup of a incredible looking layered chocolate cake with mousse, whipped cream, and I think chocolate shavings on there, too. I cannot recommend this place any more, it is literally Hog Heaven! read more

Completely agree with the other reviews. Driving across Minnesota and was looking for a good place to eat lunch. Found this place on Yelp. We had the Cuban and BLT and they were delicious. Everything was fresh including the homemade fries. Very clean inside! Highly recommend this place!!!! read more

Sanitation and atmosphere earn most of the 5 star rating, with population and menu selection being taken into consideration. Not a fan of the corn bread, and although some of the meat on the ribs were slightly tough, I was satisfied. The hot dogs are great, ( 2 dogs halved on a bun packed with slaw and bacon), my new favorite sandwich. I'll definitely eat there again and try out other choices on the menu. And, each of the 2 times I've been there they made the perfect Jack & Coke. read more

Nice atmosphere and the food is decent. The first time we ate here in 2017 it was really good. 2018 visit was just ok. The Cuban sandwich is a good bet read more

Delicious food! Cute atmosphere! Fantastic service! Great prices! And Clean, Clean, CLEAN!!! Found this place on Yelp and totally agree with the other 5-star Yelpers! Donny, the owner, is personable and a great host. With the exception of having to pay (!) it is like you are in his kitchen. A nice gem we found during our road trip. Def worth the 2-mile drive off I90. read more

Quite a little gem! Stopped as we were passing through on a road trip. They had a local beer on tap from Take 16 brewery. ..it was fantastic. Had the Cuban it was fantastic. Great little place. ..good prices. Would stop again. read more

Atmosphere was cute. Food was okay. Service was nice and friendly but the food took awhile. Kids liked the pig ears side dish (fried bread with cinnamon). I had the Cuban, again it was okay. I'd probably go again if I was in Jackson because there are great options but I wouldn't go out of my way. read more
