How did I just find out the Bay Area has BBQ that's as good as the one I had in Texas. Come with me to Smoking Pig BBQ, and they've been quietly smoking meats low and slow since 2011. Every brisket, rib, and pulled pork shoulder is smoked for hours over real oak and apple wood. And you can taste it in the tenderness of the meat. The brisket is rich, smoky, and melt-in-your-mouth tender. The pulled pork is packed with flavor and practically falls apart with every bite. The ribs are juicy, perfectly seasoned, and pass the pull test every single time. This is my first time having burnt ends and they were bursting with savory flavor but doesn't taste burnt at all. This place isn't just about the food either because the whole family can enjoy watching the World Cup right here. And right now, when you order any main dish, you can get ONE FREE item of your choice link in my bio: Wolf Turds, Wolf Turd Quesadilla, Mac & Cheese Balls, BBQ Beans, or Banana Pudding. The voucher link is in my bio or comment BBQ to get it sent in your DM. Trust me... It's time to put Smoking Pig BBQ back on the map. read more

I'll start by saying I'm not the biggest BBQ person out there. I like it okay, but it's not my go to, but there was an "influencer" deal happening for a free appetizer or dessert so.... why not give it a go. First off, the restaurant is huge. I mean, plenty of parking in the parking lot and plenty of seating inside and this place was not busy when we arrived. Despite it not being packed, service took a while to notice us at the door, to acknowledge us at our table, and to take our order. I can't blame them - the two people that I saw working definitely looked a bit frazzled, but still tried to keep an upbeat attitude. My husband and I opted for the wolf turds (stuffed jalapenos), 1 meat combo (brisket), the banana pudding, and to be honest I forgot what my husband got but the meat on his plate was more tender than the brisket I received. I appreciated their selection of sauces on the table because the meat on both plates were pretty bland. The mac and cheese was cold, but not the worse I've ever had, and the corn bread was dry. The banana pudding was thick, but delightful. Overall, it's a huge pass on the bbq for me, but I've heard good things about their key lime pie. read more

1-Star Review -- Smoking Pig BBQ, Fremont Restaurant: Smoking Pig BBQ Location: 3340 Mowry Avenue, Fremont, CA 94538 Date Visited: Sunday, August 2, 2026 Time: Approximately 3:30-3:45 PM Receipt Time: 3:41 PM Server: Zeydi J. Party Size: 2 Total: $58.39 before tip This was an extremely disappointing visit, and based on the overall experience, management should contact me directly regarding what took place. This was not a minor service issue or one item that missed the mark. The entire experience felt below the standard I remember from Smoking Pig. The service lacked energy, enthusiasm, and personality. The person assisting us appeared to be new, and the interaction felt robotic. I understand that new employees have to learn, but repeatedly relying on "I'm new" is not an acceptable explanation when customers are asking reasonable questions. A restaurant's brand is represented by whoever is standing in front of the customer at that moment, and unfortunately, this interaction left a poor impression. The restaurant was not packed, so there was no obvious reason the service could not have been more attentive, welcoming, and personalized. Then there was the draft beer issue. I am still unclear whether draft beer has been permanently removed or whether the system simply was not working that day. It was approximately 84 degrees outside, and at a barbecue restaurant, a cold draft beer should be one of the easiest parts of the experience to enjoy. The old beer chalkboard was also gone. Maybe it was difficult to maintain, but that was part of the personality and atmosphere I remembered. If the draft system was temporarily down, that should have been clearly explained. If draft beer has been removed altogether, that is another disappointing change. The food was an even bigger letdown. We ordered the two-meat combination with pork spare ribs and Angus beef brisket, along with cornbread, greens, house mac & cheese, burnt ends, and mac & cheese balls. The presentation looked fine, but the flavor simply was not there. The greens were bland. The mac & cheese was bland. The barbecue itself lacked the seasoning and depth I expect from barbecue and Southern-style food. I should not have to rely heavily on barbecue sauce just to give the meat flavor. For this type of food, I expect smoke, seasoning, richness, and personality. Instead, much of the meal tasted flat. The biggest issue for me was the value. My bill was $58.39 before tip, and I absolutely did not feel that the experience was worth what I paid. When I spend nearly $60 for a meal for two, I expect flavorful food, strong service, and an overall experience that makes me feel like my money was well spent. That did not happen here. Between the bland food, robotic service, no draft beer, missing chalkboard, and the overall lack of the Smoking Pig personality I remembered, I left feeling like I had overpaid and, quite frankly, felt ripped off. I also want to know what happened to the rewards program. There was no mention of rewards, points, checking in, or whether the program even still exists. If the program has changed or been discontinued, customers should be informed. If it still exists, staff should be able to explain it. Final Rating: 1/5 This rating is not based on one small mistake. It reflects the entire visit. The food lacked flavor. The service lacked enthusiasm. Draft beer was unavailable with no clear explanation. The chalkboard was gone. The rewards program seemed to have disappeared. And the $58.39 I paid did not come close to feeling like a good value. The restaurant may have looked fine physically, but the overall experience was subpar from beginning to end. I would like someone from management to contact me directly about this experience. A returning customer should not leave feeling this dissatisfied, confused about basic offerings, and questioning whether the restaurant is still delivering the experience associated with its own brand. At this point, my biggest question remains: What happened to Smoking Pig? read more

The place was pretty lively when we came on a weekday. Service was quick. Brisket - we ordered two sets (lean and fatty) and I recommend just going for the fatty since that's how regular brisket should be. Their lean is too hard and dry even with the sauces. Burnt ends - juicy and perfectly cooked. Spareribs - The meats falls off the bone pretty easily and has good flavor. Peanut butter pie - Too sweet to my liking. Banana pudding - It's good, but also too sweet for my liking. read more

Smoking Pig was a spot that I always see when I drive by so today's the day that I decided to give it a try. Coming in, you can see that the restaurant's got some age in it. The front has a little store front which sells items with the Smoking Pig brand in them. I always like seeing little store like these inside restaurants so I was pretty happy to stroll around before getting seated. The restaurant wasn't too busy, I would say it was about 40% filled and we were lead quickly to a booth of our choice. We ordered: Beef Brisket Meal (Fries & Cornbread) - 4 out of 5 I got the half fat and half lean type of meat. The beef was pretty well made. I was a little worried at first from the reviews I read but they turned out fairly tender and I enjoyed them. The fries and cornbread were alright. The combined portion seemed to be on a smaller side so I was a little bummed. 2 Meat Combo (Chicken Leg, Pulled pork, Coleslaw, Cornbread) - 4 out of 5 The pulled pork was a little dry for my liking but the chicken leg was pretty good. Both of these protein were on a lighter side in marination, but thank goodness that they had a few unique sauces for us to dip them in. They compliment the meat pretty good so the sauces saved the day. The coleslaw and cornbread were decent but it's probably something you've had elsewhere. Service - 4 out of 5 Since the restaurant were 40% full and it was quite big, it did take our waiter and waitress a little longer to come at times. They can see that we waited patiently and apologized for coming late. That was a good gesture so we still tipped them decently. All in all, Smoking Pig BBQ is a place I would say that you want to utilize dipping their sauces with your meat in. If you're expecting the meat to just taste wonderful, it'll end up being a little on the lighter side. Not exactly what you would imagine in a BBQ joint. Give the sauces and dip a try! As for my wife and I, we genuinely enjoyed trying 3 of their sauces and used them pretty frequently throughout our meal. Would I come back? Occasionally. If you are looking for a serious BBQ place, it may not hit it just right without the dip so keep that in mind if you plan on visiting Smoking Pig BBQ. read more

I'll start by saying that I don't normally eat southern food but my partner is from Nashville We came to this place once for a quick drink at the bar. The bartender was very attentive and friendly and the drinks were good! My only complaint is ambiance, the place feels a little dead. We then ordered takeout from them. Everything was delicious! Better than most barbecue places I've tried! I got the burnt ends and my partner got the brisket. The burnt ends were perfect, juicy and full of flavor! We also tried all the sauces and Sassy was my personal favorite. We'll definitely eat here again read more

I was hesitant to come here due to the 3/5 star reviews but we were in the area after a doctor's appointment and decided to give it a shot since we were in the mood for BBQ. I think because our expectations were low, the actual meal was surprisingly good so we left in high spirits. [[ Reasons why I can see the lower stars ]] 1.) We came in and there was no one there to greet us or someone visible. We almost thought we had to go sit down ourselves but eventually after a couple of minutes an employee showed up and told us to find a seat we liked. 2.) The place feels a bit rundown. Seats are kind of old and the ground was sticky in the area we sat down. [[ The Good ]] 1.) Although service initially started off kind of spotty, the actual employees were extremely friendly and nice. I think during the meal, 3 separate employees came to check up on us to make sure we were enjoying it. The person who sat us down was so nice too and gave my young toddler a full set of crayons and coloring paper so he wouldn't be bored. 2.) The food was surprisingly very good even though it wasn't very busy on a Tuesday. We got a 2-piece meat combo set for the both of us in the following configuration: a.) Pork Spareribs, Angus Beef Brisket, Mac N Cheese, and Cornbread b.) Pulled Pork, Angus Beef Brisket, Potato Salad, and Cornbread HIGHLY Recommend getting the Angus Beef Brisket in the FATTY selection rather than Lean/Mixed. The fatty version of it was perfect and so tender while the lean was a bit dry. The Pulled Pork was very soft and flavorful and would highly recommend this at all. All the sides (Mac N Cheese, Potato Salad, Cornbread) were so good as well with good portion sizes. I would skip the Pork Spareribs as I didn't find it very good. 3.) Restaurant itself is humongous with tons of seating and a lot of places to roam. My toddler was able to walk around after eating and explore without causing too much ruckus which I always appreciate. [[ Conclusion ]] We will definitely be back and hopefully more people come to this establishment as it's always nice to have a BBQ spot here in Fremont. read more

The pulled pork has a good smoky flavor and most of it was lean. Didn't appreciate the small amount of inedible fatty pieces when paying by the pound. Slaw was prepackaged sliced cabbage with mayo and sugar with big slices of tough core. Pretty balsy when you're charging $12.99 per pint! I'll make my own next time. read more

Haven't been in a few years but the food was still very good. The food arrived quickly. It wasn't very crowded but the biggest downside was that it was super cold inside and my husband didn't have a jacket. read more

Great place everyone should try this place it's delicious. Best bbq in the Bay Area.I love this place .

Man, it's been a long time since I've been here. Came for lunch on a Thursday, during a pretty slow time. Server was sweet yet she didn't really know anything about the menu items, and never refilled our drinks. She was cleaning the entire time, so not like she wasn't doing anything but by the end of our very disappointing meal, I was chewing on the ice in my empty drink cup trying to hydrate. Both my husband and I ordered the burnt ends plate. They seem to be a pretty popular item and I notice they upcharge for them on certain plates. These burnt ends were TERRIBLE on both our plates. They were so tough and dry, and were so hard to chew through that I couldn't really eat more than 1/2 of what was on my plate. My cornbread was super dry too, the dollop of butter that was on top didn't do much justice. Greens were the best thing on the plate.. but lacked serious flavor. At least the salt & pepper on the table helped with those. Our tab was around $60 for two plates, an unsweetened iced tea & a sprite (that were never refilled) and it pained me to pay for food to literally be thrown away because it was inedible. Coming from someone who works in the food service industry, that hurt. It's a shame because I remember this place being so good and I wanted to really enjoy my experience again. Maybe the kitchen had an off day and rushed the process on the burnt ends.. I don't know. But they should really test them out before sending them out in the future. I really dislike giving not great reviews... but sometimes we just can't let things like these slide. We all work too hard to be spending our hard earned money on bad food that pretty much ends up going to waste. read more

Took my family to try this place for my birthday since we've been driving by this play for many years. The food was good, service was nice, and the portion was decent. They have happy hour during weekdays. Interior was a little outdated but still hunts gives you that Southern/BBQ vibe. They have TV and a bar. I would come back when I have BBQ cravings. read more

Daughter wanted bbq so we came in. I noticed right away the place was very clean. Not very loud inside and plenty of TV's with games on. I thought the staff were very nice and made us feel welcome. All of our food came out fast and we enjoyed everything. They used to have live music but I asked the manager about it and the city has stopped all that. Bummer because I did come for it one night and had a lot of fun. If you want some bbq defiantly come in. Ribs and pulled pork I really enjoyed but the Mac N Cheese stole the show. Will return. read more

Finally got to try Smoking Pig BBQ in Fremont. Large place with a stage for live music. Middle of the afternoon so the place was empty. Only three employees, one of which was the bartender / server. Ordered the premium BBQ combo, chose the pork ribs (2) lean brisket, corn bread, Cole Slaw and added a side of burnt ends. The brisket was excellent tender and moist. Pork ribs were good. The burnt ends were the best. The slaw and corn bread were meh. The food was good $40 before tip. I know this is a BBQ joint but this is how I rate them. The sauces were very similar but the labels were worn and the spouts were crusty. Paper towel rolls are table side. The utensils are prison grade along with the trays. My fork was flatter than my knife. read more

Place was clean, and customer service was great. Portions seemed small, but maybe because the food was served on a large metal tray. Food was good but the brisket seemed a little dry, but paired with the KC hot bbq sauce was the move! read more

I don't normally write bad reviews, but this meal and experience were absolutely not worth the price we paid. We arrived around 4:00 PM on a Saturday and were immediately greeted by grass and trash on the floor right as we walked through the entrance. Someone told us to "sit anywhere," which should have been easy since there were only three other tables with guests. There was one staff member behind the bar (with no guests sitting there) and three other staff members just standing around talking to each other by the bar area. Despite the place being nearly empty, it took about five minutes just to get menus, and then over 15 minutes for our order to finally be taken. Honestly, it took so long that we were literally on our phones looking up somewhere else to go eat. It looked like they only had one waitress actually working the tables. When she did serve us, she got our order wrong, and we never once got drink refills. She was very friendly though. As for the food: we ordered the brisket with Mac and cheese and fries. The fries were actually good--hot and crispy. The Mac and cheese was just okay, but it had mysterious chunks of meat in it that weren't mentioned anywhere on the menu, so we had to eat around them not knowing what they were. The brisket arrived hot, but it was incredibly dry, tough, and didn't have much flavor at all. Overall, the whole place just felt completely uncared for. The sauce bottles on the table were so old that the labels were worn off, the floors and tables were sticky, and there was random stuff stacked up in corners. I would not recommend eating here. read more

It was nice to come here after a long day and experience high level hospitality at a place like here . He made the dining experience quick and pleasant. They have new menus and a happy hour now too so that's even more of a plus! Shoooot. Even the kitchen stafffff are so friendly . I love the welcoming environment makes you feel like you found your new go-to hang out spot for a delicious bite and good vibes . This was such a refreshing surprise of an experience compared to the smoking pig I know from even a year ago! Let's go Fremont Smoking pig read more

We came here early on Saturday before 12 p.m. The place was very quiet. We sat at the round table. We ordered a half rack of pork spare ribs with rice as a side and fatty brisket with beans as a side. We felt the pork ribs taste okay only, it didn't impress us at all with the smoked flavor. We felt so so. The brisket was good because easy to chew. The staff service just so so. The restaurant is spacious and no need worry about the parking. Also, I think they can clean the table better, because when I wipe, the paper towel is black. read more

Smoking Pig, the best BBQ joint in the Fremont area. The bbq chicken, ribs, coleslaw, corn bread and bbq sauce are good. My family enjoys the food and convenience of having a local joint to visit regularly. The only negatives - service fluctuates from good to poor. The second negative irritation is the chicken. Sometimes, it is so tough. read more

We spent about $60 on 2 people. We got 2 drinks, 2 meat combo and added another side and then got some peach cobbler. I loved the beans, mac & cheese, and cornbread. Wasn't really a fan of the meat. The peach cobbler was good but wasn't the best one I had. We went at 1pm on a Tuesday and there was barely anyone in there. After we ordered got our food immediately. I rate it a 7/10 overall don't think I would come back but it was definitely good if you're looking for that typa of food. read more

Have not been there for a while and was surprised that they took the potato skins off the menu, those were the stars of the appetizer menu in my humble opinion, it was 5 o'clock and no wolf turds so I was quite disappointed.

Our group of four came here for lunch today and had a terrific time. Two of us had the premium combo, which includes two ribs and your choice of second meat and a side. I chose the brisket. You had a choice of fatty brisket, lean brisket, or a mix. I chose the lean brisket and my BF chose the mix. The fatty brisket wasn't all that fatty either. There were two large ribs and fell off the bone. They were cooked perfectly; however, I wish there was actually more seasoning on the rib. They really didn't have a lot of flavor outside of the barbecue sauce sauces that were offered on the table. Don't get me wrong, those sauces were outstanding, but sometimes I don't like sauce. I just like to eat the rib on its own, and I just think it needed some more seasoning or dry rub. One of my favorite sides was the beans. It was so flavorful and had bits of meat in it. I ended up ordering some items to bring home for the next couple days. I got the potato skins and the burnt ends. I snuck a few burnt ends in and they were so good. The cornbread is clearly homemade and very delicious. But really what was outstanding at this location was the customer service. The guys there were so friendly and courteous and patient with our group. And they were very thankful that our group had dined at the establishment, which I really appreciate because we could've gone to a numerous other places. The competition is high, of course, so I really like it when restaurant owners and employees think their customers for being there. read more

If you want bbq I'd advise you look elsewhere, this food was terrible. Dry tasteless and poorly cooked. Everything that came out the kitchen tasted like it was reheated from the day prior. If you want to enjoy your food here you may need to have a few drinks at the bar so you can forget what you're consuming. Would not recommend!!! read more

We arrived around 8:45 pm in a party of 10 and there was a live DJ tonight. There is also a cover charge on nights when there is live entertainment. If you look young they will I.D. you at the door. The entertainment venues are ever changing so you will need to check with them. We played it safe ordering bar food hot wings etc. As the evening rolled on people were arriving in small groups. The DJ played a mix of the 80's, now being that he was a younger guy his song choice stylings could have been blended in a little better flow. But I am still glad we stopped by to give it a try. It was a nice escape. You forget your in Fremont for a minute. read more

Came in on a Saturday night to check out the live music during this BBQ spots after work hours party! It was a blast! The drinks were reasonably priced (margaritas $5, long islands $7). I would suggest staying away from Herradurra shots here, I dropped $80 on 4 shots (OUCH!). There was a meet up of some sort going on, and they made for a fun/dancing group; Just overly friendly, pulling new friends on to the dance floor; it was a good time for a Saturday night in The Bay! I'm going to shout out Mary, though! She was the real MVP of the night. Another bartender made my sister move away from me when we were trying to place a large order for our group (we were unofficially the cheering section for the bassist performing), and I was like why...of the line of women, including me, was she asked to move? I was about to get offended, but luckily, Mary popped in, took our very complicated drink order, and did it so smoothly, while answering staff questions, fielding customer comments, and then I swear I watched her moving around furniture at the end of the night, too! *Give that woman a raise.* I was about to leave a scathing review about the lack of customer service due to one bartender, and 2 servers I'd encountered...and now I'm glowing about blowing $80 on MY 4 shots of tequila. Thank you, Mary! I'd do a bit more training for some of your staff, but you kept parties going, people drinking, and good times flowing! read more

I used to order monthly for our team lunch meetings last year, it was going downhill so took a break. Just thought we'd try it again and picked up the 4-6ppl Family Meal and a pound of brisket. They forgot the bbq sauce so turned around for it, I mean...it's BBQ. They gave us 4 tiny containers of BBQ sauce for a $165 order "that's all we can give" Of all the things to be stingy about at a BBQ place *sigh* Not enough to cover the gray meat. read more

When you walk in this place you know exactly it's a bbq place. It has the tradition bbq restaurant look. I like to come here because it's usually not busy and has some good bbq. The key is knowing what to order. Some of it has been amazing and other items leave a little to be desired. This particular time I got the pulled chicken sandwich which is very good. We also got the nachos. The nachos are not as good. It looked like they added flour to the cheese. I'm guessing to thicken it up? It makes for bad texture and didn't taste great. It almost looked like cottage cheese. Would not order it again. I have also had brisket here. They offer fat, lean, or mix. The lean is dry. So if you get brisket get fatty or mix. The different pork options are really good as well as most of the apps. read more

I've been here a few times since they first opened years ago, always had decent food and good brisket but service has been progressively worst in the last few visits, waitresses that would drop off food and Never come back, had to chase someone to pay, etc. The latest visit the wife and I came for lunch and was directed to a table. No menus, no water, no one came by for over 15 min. Left hungry, decided it's the last time we would visit.

I have ordered take out and gone in to eat and the experience is definitely different. When we ordered take out for a family of 4 it was so good! Meat was warm and quality was there. The brisket and burnt ends are my fav! However, when we went in to eat I'd say it wasn't as great. It's slow and there seems to be a short number of staff. It took us a while to get help but our food was fast. It also looked like the tables hadn't been cleaned in a while. I had to use the restroom and even that was dirty, even though it was practically empty during dinner time. Maybe take out will be our best bet. Food though, 5/5! read more

We had taken an Uber there last night after spending 11 hours in the ER for a family member. We were really looking forward to getting some great food. We got there at 7:45, sign said they closed at 8:00. The waitress said that they just closed! We were very disappointed. They really need to change their sign to read the true close time of 7:45! We will never go there again. read more

Well what can I say, the cook either had a bad day or just no passion for cooking. The Brisket no flavor! Probably oven brisket has more hops to that. The meat way too dry and flavorless. It was just protein for my dogs. The pork ribs had no smoke flavor just plain. Overall not pulling up there again. I'll either get a tv dinner if they're still around or can't never go wrong with a plain sandwich after this spot. read more
