We were trying to find a place to eat and I always chose so this time I decided to him pick and I must say that it was not a bad decision! I should let him chose more often! First off, this place is rather small, very cute! There allot of neat things to see on the wall! Now let's talk about the food! Their BBQ is amazing! We had gotten the smoked chicken and pork ribs and it was awesome!!! Everything was fall off the bone delicious! We were definitely not disappointed but most of all I love the cornbread and the butter! I would definitely go back just for that!!! read more

My family dined in tonight but then got me food to go as i was at home. They were out of mac & cheese, ok a bit disappointing. But then the cornbread arrived burnt! My mom called and the excuse was someone was helping out. Mistakes happen, ok you baked the cornbread too long but why on earth would you find this acceptable to hand out? Supposedly the cornbread is getting refunded, and we will be watching for the refund. Oh and I see another review from a year ago also mentions burnt cornbread. But go ahead and blame it on someone just "helping out". Too expensive for what you get. read more

The chicken meal I ordered came with dry chicken with LOTS of bbq sauce poured on top. (I did like the sauce)The potato salad was pre made resers brand served in a small sauce cup. The baked beans were also served in a sauce cup and had stringy left j on ver beef in the beans read more

Warthog's BBQ has gone downhill big time. I ordered the moo, cluck, oink. The brisket was dry, ribs tasted a day old, chicken was pedestrian, they put the coleslaw in a container with hot foods and their corn bread was dry. Wife had the brisket dip, brisket was dry and the auju was super salty. Compared to Jack's BBQ or Pete's BBQ, this place needs to change or it will be gone. read more

Warthog Barbeque Pit - Pulled pork sandwich combo - Barbeque Near Me - Fife, Washington

Pulled Pork Nirvana. The Warthog owners understand BBQ. They started with an old house, expanded the garage, opened the ceilings and created an old fashioned lodge style BBG joint. The sauces are out in the hall to allow you to experiment! The walls are filled with game heads, signs, and old west trinkets. Even as you drive up the smells overtake you! I have had the mouthwatering Turkey, the Chicken, and my personal favorite, the Pulled Pork! every meat they serve is mouthwatering, fork-able delights! But don't forget your sides! The beans have a musky smoke flavor, the cornbread is just like Mama used to make! Do yourself a favor and make this stop, you won't regret it! read more

We were hungry so never had tried them. Wasn't busy. One other couple inside. I had pork Sammy for lunch. Guy behind found counter said they have homemade mashed potatoes $1 extra. So I thought sure! Don't bother. It was a baked potato smashed with skin on and gravy over it... yuk ! And day after I had the worst diarrhea!! Stay away. Hubby Yummy upset too. read more

This is currently my absolute favorite bbq restaurant. They have a large selection of entrees to choose from. I recommend the "Western Round Up" it will feed two adults (plus a small child, in my case) easily; it has a sampler of several meats plus 2 sides and cornbread. My personal favorite meats are the ribs and pulled pork. The beans are a little spicy but good. The coleslaw, it has a little kick to it from horseradish. The cornbread is fluffy, sweet and delish. Their berry devonshire cream pie is to die for! Oh my gosh! The people that work there range from average/courteous to really, really awesome and fun! Just depends on who you get. The restaurant looks like a log cabin with lots of mounted taxidermy animals. Having loved ones that are vegetarian, I do not recommend bringing your vegetarian friends here. read more

Hail-no..... We got two brisket sandwiches and half the meat was FAT! They slather it with bbq sauce to try to hide it. No choices of different bbq sauces to try either. The place is decorated with old taxidermy animals, and dusty kitch everywhere. Feels dirty and un-sanitary. This place may have been good before, but we were not impressed. Seems like the owner is squeezing it for every nickel by cutting corners. read more

excellent food and excellent staff and service. the food was served very quickly and atmosphere was very accommodating with young children. read more

Brisket sandwich was very good. Homemade French fries are a nice touch but a bit soggy so I'm holding back one star.

The warthog barbecue is very very good. It's comfy cozy for family and friends. Gary the owner works very hard to make sure his customers are happy read more

Don't order this through door dash. They forgot most of my order and then closed the store.

Okay bbq at okay prices. Brisket dip was nice quality, but lacked seasoning. The decor is a bit much. Service was great. read more

Warthog Barbeque Pit - Brisket Dip Sandwich with fries. - Barbeque Near Me - Fife, Washington

Wow,stopped by in November on a recommendation from a Co worker. We work the Northwest and have done so for over 40 years. As such there are a few places that I can't wait to return to, this USE to be one of those places. I got the "ribs" with potato salad and beans as per usual. The beans had somehow spilled on to everything inside the to go carton almost as if someone had Frisbeed the container into my to go bag. Add insult to injury where I had previously received four massive melt in your mouth delicious bones these were tiny, meat-less bones with little to no flavor. Suffice it to say my German Shepard was very happy! read more

Three stars and that might be generous. We've passed this place any number of times on the way to and from getting our car serviced and finally decided to meet some friends and give it a try. Decor is very cool, sort of rustic with both indoor and outdoor seating. If you sit inside they give you little foam pads to make the wood seem softer, outside are large wood picnic tables with red and white checkered cloths on the table and the seats. Order at the counter. They have daily specials as well as a full menu and both beer and wine. Hubs and I both had the baby back rib daily special which came with a side of beans, a corn muffin and your choice of Cole slaw or potato salad. BBQ sauce is nice with a bit of spice but my ribs at home are better than these. I expect ribs to be cooked so they fall off the bone but are still moist and tender. These had neither of those attributes. Slaw and potato salad were good, corn muffin was super dry. Beans had an odd flavor, not my style. Friend had loaded mac and cheese which was a huge portion and she said good. Another had brisket which he said was very tender. We all split one of their large cookies for dessert, very dry and hard. The cost for two without alcohol was a bit over $40. Way too much for what we got. read more

Great food. Great service. Friendly people. I had to beef ribs which I've never had before and they were really really good and coleslaw is Homemade really really good baked beans really really good. My husband had the brisket sandwich and said it was a little dry. read more

When we got there the place was EMPTY at 1pm on a weekday. I thought great but within 10 minutes at least 20 people had come in and ordered. After reading all the reviews, I decided to go with the pulled pork sandwich (ok - not a huge pork fan and love my swimming in BBQ sauce, which I had to go find and put on myself). I really liked the BBQ sauce. The sweet, salty fries were actually quit addicting. The beans were good but odd - HUGE pieces of ham hock and onions. Corn bread excellent. The restaurant was cute - they do their log cabin theme well inside and out. It was $14 for me and the little one. I definitely want to go back and try the brisket (it's probably what I should have ordered to begin with) and some different sides. It was 1000x better than 3 pigs (and way more reasonably priced for the quality and the quantity). read more

I was super excited when I walked past the joint taking my dogs for a walk. So my wife and I came back for dinner. We ordered brisket sandwiches with baked beans and potatoe salad. The sandwich was decent size but that is where the good stops. The brisket was dry, and did nit have much if any smoke taste. This made the sandwich difficult to eat because there was little to no bbq sauce on it, and they did not send us any extra bbq sauce in our to go bags. The baked beans were ok. Nothing I would order again, lacked sweetness and my wife's had four giant pieces of fat with no meat. The potatoe salad was just like grocery store generic salad. All of which I can make better with no effort at home. Do not recommend especially since I found the bbq place that makes juicy smoked brisket great every time I eat there. Was so hoping for a second great place. read more

I have a wide Berth. I allow for a lot. That said, I have a review. I moved up here about a year ago, and have yet to find "Good" BBQ. Anyone is welcome to chime in here. So far - Over roasted or waaaay too salty. Warthog has a fun atmosphere, and it's busy enough at "Rush" hour that you feel like you're about to get something good. Maybe I should have ordered the Smoked Kobe Burger (What? I never knew I wanted a 'Smoked Burger'...?). I want Ribs, and sides. -Patron walks into BBQ joint. Orders Ribs, but should have ordered 'Prime Rib Dip Sandwich'-. Here is where I would see a disclaimer under the sign that reads "NO Warthogs Were Harmed". Well... Why not??? Fall off the bone? Come on. You have TOO MANY ITEMS on your menu to support Barbecue. You have PIZZA!!! (And Pies, but I won't judge). Soggy Fries, and under-cooked Catfish. I saw other people around me receiving what looked like damn good sandwiches. So, DO SANDWICHES. Seriously. PIZZA? My ribs were beyond "Fall off the bone". NO smoke ring. Lifeless protein with sauce. How long did it sit in the "Warm Locker"? Check your local BBQ Assoc. Enter some competitions. If everyone is ordering sandwiches, stop making Ribs. My rack reminded me of the "End of day rotisserie Chicken" from my Grocer. Meat, infused with salt. If you can't serve it well, don't. Slaw - Good Greens - Salty as F Cornbread Muffin - NICE Bean Police -says- Awesome. Great recipe! -No Infractions within the 'Beanal Code' Love you guys! Will we see you at the Comp in April? read more

The best of the warthogs we have been to. This time I tried their spicy sausage entree and I should have asked them what it was like. I expected a hot link style but it was more like an Italian sausage and not much heat to it. The flavor was great though. Their cornbread is always to die for. The potato salad has just the right amount of mayonnaise without being overpowered. And their bbq sauce is amazing. read more

I hate writing bad reviews but this was some of the worst BBQ I've had and the service was terrible. I ordered the spicy sausage and it was so bad I couldn't eat more than one bite. It looked more like meatloaf than sausage and was incredibly dry. My dad and husband both ordered the sliced brisket and found it tough and hard to eat. Also, there were multiple problems with our order. First, one of the dishes was just plain wrong which they did fix. However, the second issue was that my husband didn't get one of his sides. When asked about it, the server just said they had already brought it out and wouldn't fix it (I think there was confusion from having to replace the wrong entree). We weren't the only ones in the restaurant that had a problem either. The people next to us also had a problem with their order and were not pleased that the server wouldn't fix their problem either. read more

PATHETIC EXCUSE FOR FOOD. DONT BOTHER. Saturday : busy lunch time. I ordered The special; fried catfish with fries.. what a joke. [My partner had Babyback rib plate: I've had some excellent smoked ribs- BUT NOT AT THIS PLACE! No tug on the bone and BACK OFF THE SALT. I'd like to taste my meal without a heart attack!] So I'm sitting there for 10 minutes watching my partner eat- (who ordered AFTER ME!): finally my plates comes. GROSSE UNDER COOKED CATFISH. SATURATED IN OIL AND DID I MEMTION I HAD TO WAIT FOR MY RAW MEAL. I took it home to cook it and then try thecatfish. Good cornmeal crust but the whole experience SU Other patrons were eating burgers and beef dips; guess that's what's good there.. but read the other reviews. read more

Who knew good bbq could be hidden in Fife. My friend and I stopped here for dinner and I was very pleased. The staff are supper friendly and the music was a surprisingly pleasant adult contemporary. I had the prime rib with mac and cheese and cole slaw. I will say the prime rib was cooked perfect it was a bit cold. The mac was tasty and the slaw had a little kick to it that I loved. The texas toast that came with it was not really toasty, kinda limp. One of the best things was the BBQ sauce. I judge a place highly on the sauce and they have a steller sauce. read more

Granted we came in late but my ribs were like jerky on the ends. Only had a few of the center ones were even somewhat tender. Everything else...coleslaw, beans, cornbread all good. But you come for the bbq meat read more

So disappointed. Ordered the pulled smoked chicken sandwich 7/2 and there was one decent chunk of chicken and the rest of my sandwich basically had scraps. It was all bread and sauce. Chicken tasted old and dry. The fries were just a greasy mess! Just a pile of oil. Was it just a bad day? Man. I've never had such terrible fries before. I mean, DRENCHED! The potato salad tasted similar to any grocery store salad. $50 for two people & we just feel so robbed for what we got. We will not be returning. Go to Po Boys in Puyallup. Prices are better and the sides are on point. read more

Solid choice for NW Barbq. We've had brisket, chicken, ribs, all of which were flavorful and moist. My wife & I also enjoy the collared greens. The staff has always been pleasant & helpful. Looking forward to the next visit. Cheers! read more

Wow. If this is what passes for barbecue in Washington state, I'll pass. I've lived all my life in Texas and Oklahoma. You might think that makes me a barbecue snob, but I'm really not. I travel for work, and I enjoy barbecue in Florida, the Carolinas, Kansas City, St. Louis, and lots of other places. They each have their own style, and that's OK. Warthog style is not OK. I only tried the brisket, but there's no need for me to go back and try anything else. There was absolutely no smoke flavor. All fat and crust had been cut off. Fat and crust are where the flavor are. I've had far better brisket prepared by a Jewish grandmother, but she had the good sense not to call brisket prepared in an oven "barbecue." The cole slaw was fair, probably a six out of ten. The sauce was OK, a little sweet for me, but not as sweet as you might get in other areas. A little more spice would be nice. I realize that everything is more expensive these days, but even considering inflation, I didn't get much food for the money. I'll give them three stars because that's their average and I don't want one visit from an out-of-towner to skew their average. If this was in Texas or Oklahoma, I would give them one star, and that would be pushing it. Sorry Warthog, but that ain't barbecue. read more

Warthog Barbeque Pit - Brisket sandwich "combo", with no bread. $15.29 for this? - Barbeque Near Me - Fife, Washington

Ended our vacation with a quick bite to eat on the way back to Bellingham. We stumbled across this little gem as we took a detour to avoid the traffic. Greeted by friendly staff, we were told about their dishes! We were advised that one entree could feed two people!!!! My daughter and I split the Moo, Cluck, Oink. Hubby got the ribs, while our son got the pulled pork sandwich! Their home style hospitality was awesome! It transferred to the food! We loved it! Might I mention that the cater too! So good! read more

The food was good. The place could use a some cleaning. The lady at the front taking orders was soooo very rude, another employee apologized to us and said she is rude for no reason. We are paying customers, we tip well, no need to be so grumpy and rude to customers. read more

Never a good sign when your brisket is drowning in BBQ sauce to mask how dry it is. Places like this are the reason why i make my own BBQ. This place is absolute garbage. read more

We had Warthog BBQ cater our wedding this July and it was FANTASTIC! Gary is very professional and did everything possible to make the food for our wedding perfect. The restraunt itself is one of our favorites and our kids love it too! Their pulled pork Mac and cheese and bbq chicken are our favorites! I would mark higher than 5 stars if I could! read more

Last time I ate here the food was amazing this time it was substandard ineatable, and after complaining they said we will make sure we get it right next time rather than fixing it this time. read more

This was our first time going and I heard good and bad things about Warthogs but I wanted to try for myself and we were not disappointed. All the meat was moist and ribs were fall off the bone tender. The Sausage had a mustard based sauce that my husband didn't like plus it was a little spicy. I liked it. We had enough leftovers for another meal. We will definitely be back. It was worth the price and we will be back. I think the trick is to go early to get meat that is juicy. We went about 1:00 pm. read more

I'm gonna be honest with you this place was probably the best BBQ I've had since I moved from the south! I ordered a pulled pork plate with fries and baked beans and it was really flavorful and just the right amount of sauce! I can say that the Texas toast underneath the pulled pork was pretty pointless because by the time I found it it was covered and soaked in grease but other than that we all enjoyed our dinner and will definitely be back and it is super close to our house so convenient and good what a good combination! read more

Wife ordered a brisket sandwich. She thought it was undercooked and needed more seasoning. The bite I had was blah. Her fries were good. I got pork ribs and was generally satisfied. It came with beans, coleslaw and cornbread with honey butter. The cornbread was dry and not worth eating. I thought it was a little pricey, but times are changing. We won't be going back. Cute place though with friendly service. read more

The food was great. You ordera as soon as you walk in, regardless if your dining in or carrying it out. The atmosphere of the restaurant was unique with the taxidermy animals and reptiles. We couldn't eat nearby half of what we ordered. My brisket sandwich was a little dry but I would still return to try something else when I'm in Seattle again. The only thing I didn't see was a list for the purchase of alcohol. read more

Worst BBQ I've ever had my life I couldn't even finish it had to throw it away waste of money

I talked my mom into making potato salad and other bbq fixings but we needed some ribs and bbq chicken for me and roommate - we found Warthog via google and decided to give it a try. I'm happy we went with them instead of Dickey's which is literally a 2 minute walk for us. My mom got us the pulled pork and chicken plate. Both plates came with Mac n cheese, baked beans and cornbread. All amazing and DELICIOUS- I want to apologize to the "chef sweets" as my mom called him ... we couldn't make up our minds and we had her calling the restaurant back and forth on the time and what we wanted and didn't want etc... she said everyone there was nice kind and funny! I'm thankful they were understanding to me and my roommates "not sure what we want" ordeal I can't wait to go in person and have a meal there with my mom! Pulled pork and bbq chicken was just right and melt in your mouth YUM. read more

I'm not a big meat eater. But when I want meat, I want meat. My carnivorous heritage awakens with a furious appetite for Barbecue. I'd compare Warthog with famous Dave's, but with less sauce. In fact, there is no sauce besides catsup unless you send hubby back to pester the staff for more. The ambience was country/hunter/rustic. I admit, though, beside the nice dim lighting and the tantalizing aroma of barbecue, the taxidermy beasts were... Nasty. Unappetizing. I felt like I was gnawing flesh from the boar head that was staring at me. Despite the guilt trip from Bambi's deceased relative, the food was pretty good. I'm not the most experienced carnivore, but it was okay. The fries, however, were terrible. Yuck. Mushy, soggy, cold flaps. Limp strips of nasty starch matter. I think they added sugar to the greasy little things. They had a sweet flavor. The side items were less than impressive portion, option and quality wise. I thought the entrees were pricey for what you get. read more
