Real food , real music , great service something L A could use!!!

Stopped here on our way through town. Even on a busy Friday night they got us in with very little wait. Bbq was amazing, my fiance loved the corn bread. I'm gluten free so I was glad to see that they had gluten free options. Combo plates are huge, they give you a lot of food. Most importantly the bbq was tender and juicy. Will definitely come back! Our server Daniel was fabulous :) read more

Amazing family owned restaurant in Moab. I ordered the full rack of ribs wet and had gumbo and red beans and rice for my two sides. Both were full of meat and could stand alone as meals. The ribs were moist and very meaty. I was not able to finish half and took them home. They have a nice selection of whiskey and tequila and the beers are varied. Great ambiance and the service was prompt and professional. Will definitely be back and will have friends in tow. read more

The staff is wonderful! We've always had good service when we stop by. Food is okay. It's hit or miss. After being locals, and visiting a half dozen times, we can say the food is good--sometimes. We've never had amazing BBQ. It's been okay, but nothing over the top. Sometimes the meat has been tough and burnt, and the seasoning is just blah. I'm not sure if the kitchen staff has high turn over, or what. The Blu Pig has soooo much potential to be an amazing restaurant. I hope they figure out how to fix the inconsistencies and become the amazing BBQ restaurant that would fit right into Moab's dining experience. read more

I'm sorry, but I'm from Texas and have had much better barbecue. Of course i wasn't expecting it to be as good, because of course we are in Utah. The biggest problem i had was the portion sizes. Where i'm from, if you are ordering a 15 dollar place of food you are going to leave stuffed from head to toe and still have a doggy bag to take with you. I ordered a brisket sandwich. The bread was nothing special and though the meat was good, there was hardly any of it. read more

Nice place to chill, good BBQ. Had the brisket, trip tip and pulled pork with fried okra. Very good. Service was great. Nice bar porch with live blues. read more

Food was awesome and our server Kaile was an awesome server. We had catfish and fried okra which I love being a southerner although I would love to come back and try their BBQ pork. A great place with great people. read more

Very tasty, nice people, delicious cocktails, very good live-music...we come back...greetings from germany

Our food tasted like it was cooked last week. Waitress was good though, but we were the only ones in there.

Great food, great environment, great tunes, great selection of booze. If you for some reason find yourself in Moab, Utah, check this place out. read more

Started with the gumbo which has the right amount of spice and combined with the smoked meat was awesome. I had the six wings with garlic buffalo sause, the smoke flavor was great and my initial comment was "it's like making love in the south!" Some people don't like the smoke flavor, me I love tasting the flavor of the wood, just like you do with a good bourbon. If you're in Moab this should be one of your stops. read more

Meh. It was ok. Worth the price? I don't think so. I got the steak cut of the day, which was a 12oz sirloin. It was cooked just how I like and the seasonings and butter they used on top tasted good. The side of gumbo was a complete and total letdown. It was so bad that we sent it back and opted for the vegetable of the day, which was a formerly frozen piece of corn on the cob. My husband tried the Andouille sausage and 1/4 slab of ribs. Both were decent. Nothing spectatcular. His baked potato side was overcooked and part of the skin almost broke our teeth off. I would have tried the brisket, but they ran out. All in all, it asn't the worst meal I've had, but far, far away from the best. I *think* they could offer some decent food if they just paid attention to the quality of the food they serve to people beforehand. read more

I hear children like this place, therefore 3 stars. As my kids are adults, I can't speak to this personally. As for myself and my husband, no stars. I've never asked that my meal be returned and not to bring me anything else, but I did here. I was happy to not eat and then leave after our group finished. The brisket was excessively dry and bland. The stuffed portabella mushroom was simply bad. Others in my group said their meal was average, at best. One guy in the group enjoyed his meal, but he usually eats fast food. We've only been there once so perhaps it was just a bad night. If you truly know what good BBQ is, this isn't the place to go. read more

I only went here to meet up with some friends and have drinks-I did not order anything to eat. I ordered 3 beers, and 5 shots of Cinnamon Toast Crunch. The bartender gave everyone their drinks-I paid for everyones-and she forgot mine! I will not ever come to this place again only because I felt the bartenders were not used to the bar being so busy-I came here during Easter Jeep Safari-and they gave myself and my 2 friends HUGE attitude, and we over heard the bartender being super rude to her co-workers because she was "busy." I felt the service sucked and the lady needs to work on her attitude problem. I suppose I should have taken down her name but I'll avoid the grief and never come here again. read more

Looking for a good place to eat and close to our hotel. The front desk clerk recommended the Blu Pig so we walked over to check it out. The interior is set in blue light and is really kinda cool. We were sat at a table quickly and our server Jared was awesome. The entire staff was constantly checking on our table and was very friendly. We ordered the Texas burger, a two and three plate combo which were all very good. Be sure and go for the ribs as an add on, thick and yummy. Check it out you won't be disappointed. read more

No No. No! Do not go here. Do not be tempted to stop at what is one of the first brightly lit, seemingly local, places as you come into Moab proper. To be fair I am not sure why my expectations were so high. I, for some reason, get excited at the potential of having legit BBQ in the Rocky Moutnain States (pssst.... it doesn't exist). Instead we got a couple of extremely overpriced plates ($15-20/ plate) of nothing special paired with some awesome $7.50 bottled beers - again this could have been us being dumb seeing as how Moab is essentially Touristville. In a relatively empty restaurant we were seated all the way in the back in a little corner two top where the surrounding walls looked like they had been cobbled together by a team of apprentice kindergarten construction workers. Of the three signature BBQ sauces there was not one that wasn't way too sweet and the hottest one wasn't spicy hot in the least. Our server/ the service was passable. If anything I just felt bad for the guy who basically had to talk up the BBQ as if it was real BBQ. Next time we're through Moab I will drive past the Blue Pig, shake my fist in disgust, and remember the time I was tricked into stopping there. Darn you, Blue Pig! read more

This bbq restaurant had so much potential but was disappointing. The staff was nice but the food was not good. The bbq sauce on every table was watered down, the fried ochre had no flavor and the pulled pork on the pulled pork burger was mushy. On a hike in Arches National Park, we even were told by a frequent visitor to not eat there but too late as we already did the night before. If the cooks can get the food right I would say this place could be successful in the small town of Moab. read more

The BBQ was good (having lived in the South where BBQ places are everywhere and most are very good, this was better BBQ than you might expect in a place like Moab). The atmosphere was somewhat "corporate" as another reviewer noted. The night we were there the only music was recorded, but live music is played on weekends. As for the service, David did a admirable job. It seemed like the place was understaffed and he was running around just to keep up. But we had no complaints. We'd go back without hesitation. read more

Stopped in after a long day on the road and were not disappointed. We were able to watch the NCAA Football National Championship, and I cleaned my plate (catfish). I like that even though it's a BBQ joint they had quite the varietal menu. read more

Edible, and that is quite a compliment in Moab. My wife's burger was good, but after I drank most of the stout beer I ordered to go with my brisket, I was informed they were out, and offered tri tip as a substitute. So, after finishing the first beer and getting half way through a second, and with my wife being well into her burger, I was informed that all the tri tip had been sold. I ordered the half chicken, which is something I never order in a barbecue place. So, while my wife finished her burger I waited fir my chicken. When it showed up I have to admit I was pleasantly surprised by the quality. They comped a piece of pecan pie ala mode to "soften the blow." I would go back, but be fore-warned they are screwed up like a soup sandwich. read more

Terrific service and great food. My wife had the chicken and my son and I had the brisket sandwiches. The sauces were tasty. Our waitperson was really friendly and helpful. And they were open on Easter Sunday! We will come back next time we are in Moab. read more

No complaints but not wowed. BBQ is good. Higher priced than I thought food and draft beer should be priced here.

Nice place for some good bbq. Our server was very friendly. They have a wide variety of beer and even have suggestions of dinner pairings. The ribs were falling off the bone and the sauces they had were delicious. We ordered fries, cheesy potatoes, hush puppies and mashed potatoes for sides- all were delicious. If you are in the area and in the mood for bbq I would recommend this place. read more

Decent food, great service. This wasn't our first choice (we wanted to hit the Moab Brewery, but it was slammed at 4:45PM on a Monday) but it certainly worked as a back up. The pulled pork definitely didn't have very smoky / "bark" characteristics but it was very tender( we do a lot of pork shoulder at home on the smoker, so I feel like I have something to compare to!). Kids meals were a pretty good value (big portions). Not a bad spot to try if you're in the area! read more

Our waitress was awesome, and it was a cool little cafe. Meat was flavorful, and tender. BBQ sauces didn't do much for me...I'm spoiled by the spicy bbq we get in the SW perhaps. Salad was real lettuce, not wilted iceberg which was a nice balance for the heaviness of hig-heaven pulled pork. Baked sweet potatoes could have used a little more time in the oven. Over all, I was happy with my meal. read more

Saturday night dinner, drinks, and the Utes vs Buffs football game. Sat in the bar. Not too many interested in the game. It was a struggle to get the game on and when it was I think there was only one other couple watching. Had a three meat sampler; turkey, brisket, and pulled pork. The turkey was the best, smoky and juicy. Brisket was meaty, just the right amount of fat. Pulled pork was decent. Fries were soggy (ugh), coleslaw was tasty, and an extra side of gumbo was delicious. Service was ok, nothing special. Would I eat there again, not necessarily.... read more

I'd give them 3.5 stars. They weren't bad, as many reviews suggested. I found the food to be good - not knock your socks off but certainly not bad. I ordered the pulled pork and had the hash brown casserole and fried okra for sides. I thought the pork was tasty and I had the option of adding 3 different sauces from the table if I wanted more. I thought the garlic bbq sauce was spot on. Hubby ordered the pulled pork and tri tip. He found the tri tip a little dry. He really enjoyed his gumbo and red beans and rice as sides. The bites I sampled of his were really good. I found the corn muffins, which all the reviews raved about, to be ok. They tasted like the jiffy muffin mix - not that it's bad, just not earth shattering. Service was quick and good. read more

Excellent restaurant in Moab where mediocre is the norm! We had the pulled pork sandwich which was moist, smokey and on the perfect bun! The gumbo is also amazing! Going back tomorrow again!! read more

We thoroughly enjoyed our dinner at The Blu Pig, and the 10% off deal for La Quinta Inn customers was a plus! When one of us didn't care for the coleslaw and asked for a different side (fully anticipating on paying for it) our waitress brought out an alternate free of charge. She was really great! Portions are big too - we all had leftovers!! read more

Pork wings are good but in small serving, staff are friendly and dogs are allowed here in the patio, overall ambience is cozy.

The atmosphere was great but the food was over priced for what you got. My boyfriend had the beefy Texan and said it was good. I got the 2 meat plate with the turkey and tri tip. Pass on the tri tip it's bland and fatty. I also ordered the chardonnay carrots that has no taste very blah. But the sweet potato fries were awesome make sure to get them if you go! All the food comes in large portions so make you have a big appetite! We probably wouldn't go back. read more

This was a unique place and fun to sit in the bar section with live blues music going on. Service was pretty slow, but it was also later at night. Food was ok, nothing amazing, but I did only get chicken wings. I did also enjoy the foot-long fried mozzarella sticks! read more

Food is good and Christina's service was really great! Even in low season this place is awesome. Great post 4 hour ride with dessert offered which was great! read more

Was passing through Moab by accident and saw a sign for Blu Pig BBQ. Wanting to try something new, we pulled in. We were seated pretty fast and our waiter got our drink order and returned almost immediately. I ordered the Prime Rib Philly and the Big N Tasty fries with Tri Tip. The Philly was ok but the fries were excellent. Mostly because of the tri tip. My mom ordered the tri trip sandwich and I wish I would have as well. The waiter was very friendly and fast on the refills. If I go through Moab again for whatever reason, I will definitely go to the Blu Pig again. read more

Not super impressed but not disappointed either. Was there in March during Spring Break time so the town was really buzzing. Went late in the day and the dining room was kind of a mess. Service was a little slow but not bad. Yummy sauces. read more

We both enjoyed the bbq . Had the half rack. Well cooked and the 3 sauce made the dinner.

There is not a lot of choice in the area, but the ribs were good. Don't stray off the normal menu though.

Yum! Really really good BBQ and the service was stellar. Sarah was very attentive and we had a great time. Will certainly stop in again next time we visit Moab. read more

The poor Yelp rating almost kept us away but I am glad we tried it anyways. The service was great, place was clean, portions and prices were a good value. I am from Kansas City and have had great bbq- this wasn't great but it was GOOD! And so much food came in a meal, I ate the leftovers for breakfast and lunch the next day! read more

Tri-tip was delicious with the BBQ sauce and the ribs were pretty good with the mustard sauce. Both were a little lacking before adding sauce. The coleslaw was delicious, okra was OK, potato casserole is not so good and the red beans and rice were terrible. Good service on a busy night. Live music was nice. read more
