Truly some of the most delicious BBQ I've had in the city. Every single item is top-notch, my personal standouts are the wings with the uniquely delicious buttery buffalo sauce and the pull apart brisket. The cornbread in particular is one of the most well balanced cornbreads I've ever tried. The service is incredible and although there can often be very long lines to sit down, it is so unbelievably worth it and the like always moves very quickly since they have a very tightly run system. The combination of the inside open bar and the courtyard create a very unique ambiance that can not be recreated in any other area other than the grove!
Back in the day at Smorgasburg I discovered Drinking Pig because they were across from the Lazy Oyster. Fast forward a few years, and Drinking Pig is the most welcome addition to the Chug's Courtyard in Coconut Grove. If you like BBQ, Drinking Pig is for you. If you don't like BBQ, Drinking Pig is going to make you like BBQ. I've found myself at Drinking Pig for a meal about once a month for the last three months and it has quickly become one of my favorite spots in Miami. Why? Everything is so freaking good! What I have ordered: +Brisket: delish +Pulled Pork: I love the pulled pork because it isn't saucy, but you can add your own BBQ sauce and it's great. +Ribs: great +Whole Chicken: way to get the protein - this is divine and a huge portion to share with a group. It comes cut so easy to eat / share. +Smoked Chicken wings: I have to say, these are now my favorite wings in Miami. From the first time Jeff told me to order the wings last month, every time I have returned I have ordered these wings. I have also told anyone who will listen to order these wings. I have not been met with one regret for myself or anyone who listened to me. They are juicy, saucy, worth the mess, and something that I think about often. When it comes to sides you cannot go wrong with the Mac and Cheese and Corn Bread. Both are fireeeee. They also have a full bar and beer / wine if you want to enjoy a drink while you eat. The way ordering works here is you wait in line, order, and find a table. They open a tab for you so if you want to order more at the table you can, but you should come prepped to know what you want initially. The seating is a mix of outdoor picnic tables and an inside bar. On a beautiful sunny day, Drinking Pig hits. I love it there. My advice - go in a group so you can order everything. However, if you order everything not in a group, you will have the best leftovers. I've heard folks say that Drinking Pig is expensive. First of all, most things in Miami are expensive in 2026 - and a lot of them are not high quality meats like you're going to get here. Second, I went this weekend with 6 girls - we ordered: whole chicken, 12 wings, 1/2 lb pork, 2 mac and cheeses, collard greens, 2 corn breads, and cole slaw and each spent $27 which included a 20% tip. A great value in my book!
I was between a 3 and 4 for this review and it comes down to one thing.. Service. That said, the food - PHENOMENAL. my only gripe was I found some of the food a little too salty. Ultimately, the food is why I'm giving this a 4 review. And now for junkies critique, In most cases, the service was good while we were being attended to. However, we found service lacking at several points during our visit. It's not that the servers weren't attentive or accommodating - it's just a matter of sort of being ignored for large gaps of time and in one case, just getting an inappropriate attitude from one server. The ambiance was good as well. We really enjoyed our time and would go again and do recommend.
Epic BBQ review alert!!! Today we decided to forgo our usual Sunday Brunch for a later day meal. So, Tonight the hubby surprised me with an impromptu drive to Coconut Grove for delicious authentic BBQ! We spied (and smelled) this lovely establishment a few weeks ago while next door at the famous "Chug's" for brunch. We vowed to come try it, after checking the stellar starry reviews on YELP! Tonight's the night! We grabbed our trusty pup Ahsoka, and headed over around 7. Parking can be difficult, so we chose a lot. (Expensive!) We strolled on over and ordered immediately from host station. Sadly, they were out of all ribs and a few other things, but no worries. There are still a bunch of solid choices! We ordered brisket, smoked turkey, chicken wings, cornbread, baked beans, mac & cheese plus the star of the show-banana pudding in a mini mason jar! Then We sat at a roomy painted picnic table by the pretty fountain and waited. I grabbed water at the cooler and hubby got unsweet iced tea in a covered signature plastic cup. $4.50 (NO refills!) We receive complimentary pork rinds and then, The moment of truth arrives! Staff brings a huge tray and explains sauces and things. 1. I go for the corn bread first--LEGIT! Perhaps the best I've ever had, not too sweet, not cake-like, decidedly NOT from a mix! Warm, crusty, moist flavorful Corny Perfection. 2. Next-baked beans hits it out of the park! Melt in your mouth beans with the smoky meaty taste of brisket. Neither watery nor dry, just a good thick moist consistency. 3. Smoked Turkey-stuff of thanksgivings gone by, but not really a smokey taste. Still good lean juicy turkey breast. I took the opportunity to try it with the table sauces. One was terrific on it, you'll experiment for yourself. 4. Chicken wings--SCORE! These were FIRE! Lean, meaty, too quality cooked well and sauced. A real standout. Honestly, I could just stop here!! But no, which leads me to... 5. Brisket!! This is a good test right here. I was torn about ordering it, since I've been burned time and again by super fatty fattiness!! HOWEVER no caution necessary. This is a brisket for a Holiday meal! It's first cut lean, thick sliced, flavorful, cooked exactly to tenderness, and juicy! Yay brisket heaven!! So SO great. 6. Just when you think it can't all hit right on, here comes MAC & CHEESE! Tender unassuming little macaroni elbows covered in crumbs of soft moist cheesy goodness. You'll have to hold yourself back from eating it all at once and filling up! Relax, you can just take it home right in the container with a requested lid or provided boxes and bag. But Don't stop believing now because... 7. BANANA PUDDING?! This is the only item I requested in particular, lest they run out. A nice healthy helping enough for two comes in a cute small Mason jar to look at longingly throughout the meal. It reminded me to save room especially! Was I impressed!! Ripe soft banana slices floating in custard-like mousse/pudding consistency. Soft Nilla wafer-ish crumbs throughout top and concentrated on the bottom layer punctuate the flavor without overpowering. Honestly, the hardest thing is controlling yourself to not fill up on any one thing. Moral of the story: come back again EARLY to not miss the ribs running out haha! FOMO there. However, We vow to come back for our usual Sunday Brunch rounds. Stay tuned for the full beef and spare ribs experience. Thanks for following my Miami adventures: happy yelping in 2026! -Tami in Miami
I've heard of this place recently on social media ans dying to go. Fast forward a few weeks later to Dec 11th, a few of us on a food crawl hit this spot up 2nd on our list that night. Being a Thursday night this place was jumping with lines just to wait to order and mostly all tables inside and the common area courtyard just outside. We were a big group of 7 so was no quick easy task to snag a table in the courtyard and then borrow chairs unused from other tables but all worked out While that was going on, the ordering line was slow with about 8 or more people standing and advancing. All with the host explaining various items on menu and what they are out of. When it came to my turn to order, they were out of spare ribs but had explained they always run out of items but takes a bit for the kitchen to catch up to restock and put back on the menu. Example, the brisket came back on the menu. Since im a rib guy, had opted for the honking huge beef rib. 1 beef rib so big could feed 3 people (?) 1lb and a half? Anyway, had also ordered the pork belly. They gave me a number on stand, took back to our table and waited but luckily others had their food and sampled someone's brisket and a piece of sausage link k It was soft good bbq brisket and must with their sauce for extra yummyness. The sausage link was ok. Eventually my order came out and boy oh boy what treat! Super huge beef rib bone in! Beautiful bark on the outside. I was drooling in heaven while easily pulling the meat off the bone with fork. The flavor ans texture sent heavenly explosions in the mouth So dreamy. Others took photos and I invited them all to try this impressive monster. All while eating that, also had such soft creamy savory pork belly. Omg. All this screamed leftovers aince we still had at least 1 more stop to go on our food crawl! Side note: if did have epic leftovers the next day. Now the grove is not easy to park your car but this place would make it worthwhile. Come and eat and stroll around! Your tongue and stomach would be very happy.
Best experience! Everybody that works here is so nice and the food is AMAZING. It's our new favorite bbq spot! Location is great and it has a large outdoor area. The happy hour deal is also amazing.
Discovered this place while looking for BBQ spots to try out. The place was a 5 minute walk from the parking garage and it had indoor and outdoor seating. We ordered our food with the host at the front and once we were finished ordering we were told that we could pick any table we'd like to sit at. Once we sat down we were quickly brought water and complementary pork ribs. The pork ribs were very light, crispy, and airy with a subtle smoky flavor. Our food came shortly after on a large platter. The brisket had a range of lean and fatty pieces. The leaner pieces were slightly dry but the thin layer of fat was enough to make it juicy. The fattier pieces were packed with flavor, the fat almost made it feel like savory butter, and was very tender. The pork belly was very tender and just like the brisket, the fat tasted almost butter like. The beef rib was huge and falling off the bone. Depending on where you ate from, the pieces got more and more tender. The cornbread was very soft and crumbly. It was very moist and slightly sweet. The mac & cheese had small elbow pastas which allowed for more sauce per bite. The sauce was very creamy and the mac & cheese was topped off with shredded cheese and crispy breadcrumbs. There are two different types of BBQ sauces: House BBQ sauce and Mustard Based BBQ sauce. The House BBQ sauce was slightly tangy and sweet with a little spiciness to it. The Mustard Based BBQ sauce was tangy, slightly spicy, and a bit tart. Overall, the food was very delicious and the staff were very friendly. All the cuts of meat were very tender, they all had a smoky savory meaty flavor and I can't wait to go and try their other cuts of meats and sides.
Although I had a hard time figuring out when to get here, I finally went super early on Wednesday and it was the best time. The wait was really short - people started really showing up around 4:30 and they open at 5p. Now in true fashion we got one of everything they offered. The pulled pork and sausage were still getting smoked but we were happy with everything else! The one that stood out the most was the beef rib, the Mac n cheese was really really good and the banana pudding I'd recommend ordering as soon as you get there in case the sell out. Chef was really nice, staff was pleasurable and the fact they gave us waiting beers? We can't wait come back. Parking lot is at the Playhouse lot and it's a casual walk over! Highly recommend.
I was really excited to try this place, but it's a no for me. Let's start with a positive: they have happy hour every day from 5PM to 7PM. I enjoyed a daiquiri for just $9! For my entrée, I ordered the spare ribs with a side of Mac & Cheese - which is not included in the price of the entrée. The portion size is disappointing: only two ribs, and they didn't have much meat on them. On top of that, like I mentioned, the mac & cheese (and any side, for that matter) are an additional cost. Overall, it's expensive for what you get. The service was fine, nothing out of the ordinary. I won't be running back to Drinking Pig.
We strolled in here on a Thursday night right before they closed and we were soo glad we got a chance to try this new bbq spot in the grove. The service was great, the food came out super quick. We were very glad that we got served so quick because we had a chance to eat before continuing the night out. My favorite item was the cornbread! It was soft and had a honey glaze on top. The Mac and cheese really hit the spot, I loved the crumbles on top. The chicken was good but I wish it could've just been white meat not a mix of both white and dark. My friends had the brisket and they absolutely loved it. Overall, I did enjoy this new spot. I definitely have to come back with friends whenever I'm in the area.
This what The Grove & Miami has been missing.... True Authentic BBQ with a Bar (that reminds you that you are still in Miami). Serving was very welcoming and attentive. We order Half Chicken, Coleslaw, Collard Greens, 1/2 lb Brisket, Mac & Cheese. The Mac & Cheese was very creamy and delicious. The Chicken was super moist and had an amazing outer seasoning. The brisket was not as juicy as I like, but was still really good. Collard Greens were on point. Came with 3 sauces BBQ, Creamy Mustard, and an Asian dressing. Pickles & Raw onions. The fountain drinks were not refillable for free. Very small glasses. Not sure how the locals will feel about that... Looking forward to coming back.
Ordered to go this time and it was just as incredible! Tried the pork belly and wings this time and they were a necessity! So, definitely ordered those two items. The 1/2 chicken and ribs were also delicious. I ordered at the time of opening and had the food prepared for 2:30. It was fresh, yummy and the service was excellent! Thanks Franklin and the team! When I went to pick up the order, the ambiance was lively, clean and welcoming.
Not a huge barbecue person however this spot it's so good. The wings are great & the hot sauce flavor is delicious!! My favorite thing from the spot definitely has to be their smoked turkey. It is extremely juicy and flavorful pairs as well with their homemade Carolina barbecue sauce. Not a huge fan of the baked beans they were a little too sweet for me. The mac & cheese was good, but nothing out of this world. Have been back twice already and will continue to come back. They also have plenty of seating and the service is also good.
The Drinking Pig has delicious moist beef brisket and amazingly flavorful tasty sausage. The chicken was dry, at least as served. The cornbread was good with a strong buttery flavor. My favorite side is collard greens. I enjoyed this bbq. The ambiance is casual, and the service is exceptionally fast. read more

Great experience at the Drinking Pig BBQ. We went on a whim and it was packed, but we were able to snag a table pretty quickly. You order at the hostess stand, get a number, and grab a table. Although you order and pay at the start service was great, everyone was very attentive. Let's talk food, we ordered a nice sampling of pulled pork, wings, mac & cheese, baked beans, and roasted sweet potato. It was all served family style with a little pickled onion and hot pickle slices (nice touch). The interior looked to be mostly made up of a bar area with the seating being all outside. I could be wrong; it was packed and we didn't venture into the bar area. All in all, the food was good (a lot of it, we had leftovers for days) and we will absolutely be back. Next time we're trying the cornbread. read more

Who new there was such great BBQ hidden in the Grove. Alot of Jamaican influenced items and the Jamaican patty brisket is unlike any other one I have had. It was off the chain. The brisket and pulled pork were perfect in every way. Try the coco bread! read more
I sure love good old barbecue and there's no shortage of places to try it in Miami, but somebody has got to be the best and that somebody has got to be Drinking Pig BBQ. Now I am basing this review on only one visit and will likely add to it in the future because I am sure to go back but let me start out by saying that BBQ is pretty much my favorite thing to eat. My meat of choice is beef rib, but they were out of it due to a big rush on Sunday and I did arrive quite late, less than an hour before closing. In fact, they were out of all ribs. So I decided to get a smorgasbord of what they did have. We ordered smoked turkey breast, smoked brisket, chicken wings, and three sides, cornbread, mac & cheese, and beans. Also ordered dessert. What else, banana pudding. I also ordered some iced tea, which was the only disappointment by the way. This is a friendly place. They greet you really well when you arrive. To take your order, give you your silverware and the number to put on your table and you're off to wait. But you don't wait long. Only a few minutes later, they bring out the tastiest brisket I've ever eaten, superb chicken wings with a barbecue sauce that's out of this world, beans, which I have no idea how they make them this good as nobody else can, mac & cheese that is mouth watering, good, and the hands-down best cornbread I have ever eaten. The turkey breast will not a disappointment was somewhat bland. I didn't really have the smoke taste to it. It was juicy and perhaps somebody else would've liked it, but it wasn't good enough for me to order that again. The rest of this food however it was a huge winner and I can't wait to come back and try the ribs. There are two reasons why this review is four stars instead of five. The first is that the excellent service from the moment we arrived until 9 PM when they close was perfect but then they forgot us. They took the water away so we couldn't even refill our water cups. We had to seek them out to pay our bill. This was a short contrast to the very attentive service there was until closing time. Solution? Don't come in closing time. I have a feeling it will be perfect. If that doesn't happen next time. The second reason is the iced tea. For $4.50 I got a small plastic cup with a cover which was filled with ice and a dribbling of iced tea. Two sips and not even particularly big ones and it was gone. I asked him was informed that there were no refills. Now I'm not complaining about the high prices for the food because one this is Miami and two this is darn good food. And the iced tea actually was delicious. But come on now $4.50 for a cup of ice. That was just egregious enough to piss me off and instead of leaving ecstatic about the restaurant there was a nagging complaint in the back of my head. Solution? How about a beer next time instead? Problem solved. The banana pudding lived up to all of the rest of the food. It was great. Very pricey, but again I don't mind paying for excellent food. Despite the lack of service at the end of the meal, the excellent service before that point was deserving of a big tip and I did leave one. They had an automatic 15% but the service as well more than 15% level and sitting outside in Coconut Grove... I can't imagine a better ambience. Loved it here. May love five stars next time without the ice tea and without the closing time changing in additude. Very highly recommended. read more

So excited to check out drinking pig barbecue in the Grove. I heard it was coming down south and planned on including it in a food crawl plan with some friends. Was excited to try their brisket, there was a a bit of a line but it moved quickly. I ordered a 1 lb. of the brisket, and it came with honey drizzled cornbread. There were a few snags, I only received half pound , but the staff quickly noticed and fixed it. The flavor was OK, but it was tender and the cornbread was delicious. I did try a friend's bone in beef piece charr on the outside soft delicious on the inside. Definitely would come back for the short ribs. They did not have when I got there. They'd run out. As always, their offerings of craft beers were good and the price is more than reasonable, it's a fun atmosphere with outdoor seating parking can be an issue, but if you get there early more options. read more
We really enjoyed their bbq - we had the brisket, pork belly, smoked turkey, chicken wings, mac n cheese, and cole slaw. Everything was delicious and paired well with smoky hickory bbq sauce, mustard bbq sauce, and the unique white barbecue sauce. Great spot with attentive service and outdoor seating in Coconut Grove! read more
I've honestly never tasted better barbecue in my life. The brisket and pork belly were next-level and melt in your mouth, smoky perfection. The pulled pork was also amazing . My favorite side had to be the cornbread. It was so warm and buttery, with honey drizzle on top. Absolutely mouth watering and the mac & cheese was out of this world too. Every single thing on my plate was literally amazing. If you're a true BBQ lover, this spot is a must. read more
I don't get the hype. Nice folks but service was very slow, the ribs were average at best, the cornbread was dry, had corn, and just don't do it for me. The Mac & cheese was also dry and too tart. I'm confused why this place gets the hype it does. read more

Drinking Pig BBQ offers excellent bbq food and mouthwatering drinks. The BBQ is outstanding and I can say unbeatable! All of it was undeniable delicious but our favorite was the extremely large beef rib. Omg!!!!! hands down the greatest beef rib we've ever had. The sides were absolutely delicious. Literally everything was outstanding!!!! The service is friendly, and the outdoor courtyard creates a fun and relaxed dining experience. This is a place to come with family and friends. Make memories and enjoy !!!!!!!!!! read more

My friends and I decided to hit this place up after one of our food events (where we mostly drank). Perfectly located in a plethora of bars and restaurants lies this amazing bbq spot. One that was very much needed in the area. We wanted a quick bite before moving on to the next bar, so we shared a platter of food: Mac n cheese, cornbread, half a pound of brisket and half a pound of chicken. My gosh.. everything was so good. The Mac n cheese absolutely hit the spot. We didn't grab any cocktails, so I gotta have one next time. The service was also on par. The waiter checked on us frequently. Definitely a fun spot to stop by in between bar hopping, or even just to relax and have a nice, comfort meal. read more
I could only review the drinks because they had run out of food when we went on a Saturday night around 6:30pm. The drinks we had we very nice. I had a vodka Palmer and my husband had their special Old Fashioned. Despite not having food, they did not allow us to bring over what we purchased next door at Chuggies. I'll make sure to return when they have food. read more

I am SO happy I finally made it here. I like the way it is set up in that you order at a booth and sit wherever you'd like. Makes it feel more accessible and casual. There is plenty of seating both inside and outside. The chicken was so good, highly seasoned maybe a little too much but wow delicious. The brisket was thin and cooked well. What we loved the most was the cornbread and mac&cheese. Compared to their similar competitor, this cornbread is so much better. Though it falls apart easily, it is much more flavorful and packs hints of honey. The Mac and cheese has a crustier top which adds definition. We will be back!!! read more
After seeing Drinking Pig opened a location in the Grove, I had to see what all the hype was about and it totally deserves all the praise! The meat was absolutely delicious and the sides were all great with huge portions. All of the staff were so friendly too. They sell out quickly, so come early or for lunch on the weekend to be able to try everything! read more

Three of us ate at this grove restaurant the second night it was open. The food, service, and overall experience was wonderful. You order at the door, find a place to sit and your food is delivered to your table. We tried the chicken, pulled pork and the spare ribs. All of the barbecue dishes were tender, flavorful and delicious! The sides we tried (coleslaw, mac n cheese, beans, and cornbread) were all amazing as well. I had a St. Croix Margarita which was great as well. Honestly I had no complaints about anything. One of people in our party prefers a sweeter barbecue sauce but I liked all the sauces. Overall I highly recommend this restaurant and we will definitely return. read more
