Went here for a birthday lunch with my office... No call ahead, they were easy to accommodate our party of 7. I did not try the salad bar but a co worker of mine did, apparently a decent selection on there. Food was good, sauces were good. Our waitress was a bit on the slow side and quite weird but it was busy for lunch? read more

One of our favorite places to go with the family. The food is always good and the free ice cream at the end is a nice touch. The staff are always pleasant and the atmosphere is very welcoming. read more

Great service, quick and good quality! St Louis style ribs and pulled pork were moist and flavorful. Food was out faster than most quick service restaurants and the free ice cream for the kids is a nice touch! read more

Nothing fancy just good food. Nice fresh salad bar and the chicken and dumplings (one of their soups of the day) is very good. Free ice cream too :) read more

Good ribs, steaks, sides, everything was tasty. Clean place, more along the lines of a Sonny's or Dustins, but probably a notch better. The one thing, that made no sense, was varying costs for the salad bar, which my husband took exception to- if you buy a $14 steak, you pay $2 for a salad bar, but when you buy $16 ribs, you pay $5 for a salad bar. A kids salad bar is also high at $5 which my 5 year old could never eat more than 1 plates worth. I hope their manager reads this and changes it, because a salad bar, added to a meal is not really affordable when it bumps the price up so high. The meal prices were fine, the peach cobbler dessert was awesome for $2.29. Would go again, but not if the salad bar was varying in price and we have to deal with weighing the salad bar value. My husband was ready to walk out... read more

Love the food here and the service is good too! Haven't ordered anything I didn't like! Great ribs. Never heard anyone speak badly of it.

First time coming to the pig and cattle and it was a great experience! Our server Mekayla walked us through the menu and suggested the brisket sandwich which was amazing. She was very welcoming and treated us like family. I'll definitely be back to sit with her for dinner again! read more

This was some of the best bbq I ever had And my server Michelle was fantastic, my ribs were falling off the bone. read more

YUM!!! Love this place. Go often and we are always pleased with our meal, the service & their self-serve ice cream machine. Baby Back Ribs are a favorite for my husband. I favorite their bbq chicken, but have also enjoyed their salad bar, soup, pulled pork, catfish, shrimp. No complaint. read more

We "found" this wonder restaurant by chance. The Brunswick stew (soup) we had never tasted and it was wonderful. Service 5+++. We have taken 3 other couples from the area up there who swore they would have never gone that distance for a meal. No they do. Please open one in the area of The Villages, FL. We really need GREAT for and service! read more

In short, the baby back ribs, brisket, and service are world class. I've eaten ribs from all around the United States, including professional competitive bbq venues. When I stopped at this little friendly place along my route, I had no idea the food thrill that awaited me. If you're a fan of smoked and bbq meats, you've got to give this place a try! read more

Holy cow. I can't say enough good things about Southern Pig & Cattle Co. I rarely leave reviews, but this place exceeded me and my husbands expectations. You must must must must try the ribs! They were done to absolute perfection! We will absolutely be back for more! read more

Looks cute from outside and always a lot of cars but nothing special. Our waiter was wonderful... very nice kid and attentive. Food was lackluster and nothing to crave again. Step up from nursing home food with bland soups, subpar basic salad bar and food that was just okay. Disappointing! read more

Just a run of the mill BBQ joint... nothing special to report. Limited choices in Sauces. Salad bar was just ok.

My overall experience with Southern Pig & Cattle Co was underwhelming. The brisket was sliced thin and dry, the baby back ribs were ok but nothing to ride home about, the baked beans and Mac & Cheese really left something to be desired. This place is has a very generic feel and the food wasn't far behind. read more

Worst BBQ to date. Very small portions at a premium price. I don't recommend it unless your on a diet or have recently had your stomach stapled. read more

The food was ok I was expecting some real bbq food this was very plain the mac had no flavor. The customer service was phenomenal but the food was lack of flavor... read more

Awesome food, lovely family environment, great for the kids. Very spacious, excellent service!

Coming from Texas, I had high expectations for the brisket and was sorely disappointed, sliced wafer thin, no smoke ring, not moist at all. The pulled pork had a decent flavor. Service was good though. read more

Won't be back. Ordered Smoked turkey and was served up paper thin slices of prepackaged deli meat. I'm NOT KIDDING! I sent it back and ordered white meat chicken which was average for a barbecue. read more

When you first walk in the seat your self service kinda throws ya but the waitresses turn out to be very friendly and helpful. The food turned out to be actually pretty good. The sides are a generous portion and the food is mostly of fresh, home made quality. This place is pleasantly surprising. I would say it's well worth the experience and would deff go back again. Probably the best BBQ on the treasure coast. read more

See all

Best pulled pork sandwiches! Love going to Southern Pig & Cattle with friends or family, or just getting take out. Great food and very friendly staff :) Highly recommend!!! read more

Really wasn't impressed. Salad bar wasn't good, coleslaw was watery and gross. Sides were served cold. Really overpriced for for mediocre food. The only thing worth mentioning was the baby back ribs. They were delicious, which is why I gave this place 2 stars! Won't be coming back, for the price we'd rather go to Sonny's! read more

We were greeted by Apryle..one of the best hostesses we have had on our weeks stay in Stuart!! She was very honest and informative about the restaurant since we were first timers. I had the ribs/brisket platter with corn on the cob and okra. 10/10..it was just like eating at home. The ribs were very tender and the brisket was extremely tasty. Okra was heavenly!! I had an ice cream cone for dessert. I was completely full upon our departure. 10/10-service, 10/10 food, 10/10-selection, 10/10-cleanliness, 10/10-price I would HIGHLY recommend this place if you are in Start or just passing through!! Ask for Apryle, she is a fantastic hostess!! =D read more

First impression, clean and well lit. The sign in the lobby said seat yourself so I did. Less than a minute later a polite young lady brought a menu. Than another asked what I would like to drink. Mentioned it would depend on what I ordered, ok I will be right back. She never did return. When it was noticed I was ready to order. A extremely attentive gentleman took her place as my server. I decided on the full rack of baby backs, baked potatoes and baked sweet potato. I was traveling through Stuart in my Roadtrek RV van so I have a tendency to over order. The van has a regular AC refrigerator so the more leftovers the longer I can enjoy a good meal. Because of the RV I will order two items at times eating a combination and the rest for breakfast and lunch the next day. I had seen that a simple but clean and Fresh salad bar was available for $4.99. I opted for this addition. Previously stated by another post at $2.99. I did order unsweetened Ice-tea and another (2) when a friend joined me in conversation. The food was straight forward as ordered with a good flavor and presentation. The salad bar Fresh and Crisp. Kept clean and appetizing with flavorful dressings. Dressings dispensed in nice carafes with easy pour spouts. Total cost is a value for your dollar. For me that equaled $25.00 with tax + $5.00 tip. They could be given five stars for being honest in advertising and cost. I gave four stars because no-one notified me before I left to help myself to a complimentary ICE CREAM CONE. That would have been the perfect topping to my meal. I would recommend this establishment to the "average" BBQ lover. KEYWORDS: A Value For Your Money. read more

This is my favorite BBQ restaurant. We travel 45 minutes every Sunday to eat Dinner here. Even yesterday Easter Sunday. The tubs are so tasty and yummy. So is the beef brisket so tender tasty and yummy. Dry rub wings so juicy tasty and yummy. The soup is out of this world delicious. Nice salad bar. I love their coleslaw and macaroni salad. The best. All the food here is delicious but these are my favorites. We usually take home extra ribs for dinner on Monday. Plus you get a little self serve ice cream treat at the end which most of the time I don't eat cause I am so full. They give you a lot of food too. read more

The best brisket I have ever eaten. The service was great and everyone treated you like family.

The banner marquee out front seeking full time cooks was the first sign that we should have kept driving up US 1 instead of stopping in for the "BBQ" served here. I can't grasp the factual basis for any of the reviews touting the fare offered here as the best BBQ in the area. Compared to BBQ served where? In prisons? Local hospitals? If BBQ was served out of a vending machine, it would taste like the BBQ served here. Everything tastes like it was canned; except for the onion rings which tasted like they were directly from the frozen food case at Sam's Club up the street. The tired worn interior of this establishment only accentuates this dreadful experience. The only reason I am extending two stars is because of our friendly server. The food served here is a solid canned one star. read more

Read great reviews for this place, but BEYOND disappointed after going. Everything looks like it came out of a can and heated up like the food that is served at retirement homes. Salad bar was nothing special, super boring. They make it seem like there's a great ice cream bar, and it actually just one small self-serve ice cream machine like the ones you see at the movie theaters. The food is NOT worth the prices they put on their menu. #dontgo read more

Don't Waste your time. This is overpriced, and the barbecue is very mediocre, at best. When I got the baby back ribs, I asked the server why they were so small. She told me, with a straight face, that they only use baby backs from Danish pigs. ..... really.... Danish pigs? it's all I could do to keep a straight face... she was so serious and detailed. Go to Sonny's.... at lest you know what to expect. And the BBQ is better tasting. read more

I had high hopes of getting a great meal here. The reviews were positive and the parking lot was packed. However, the overall experience was pretty disappointing. Warning number 1 was the first impression. A packed parking had me smiling with my lunch choice, however, upon walking in, the first thing you see is a sad looking salad bar followed by a buffet style looking restaurant. On tap: Bud, Bud Light or an amber bock. Nothing craft or even creative to pair with the BBQ food. This was warning sign number 2. After picking my own seat, I started to pay more attention to the negative Yelp reviews. Third and final warning. I optimistically ordered half rack of baby back ribs with brisket. Mac & cheese and green beans for sides. While the ribs were cooked nicely, there was a distinct lack of a true smokey flavor. They fell right off the bone but they did not seem to be a high quality meat. Same for the brisket. It was sliced as thin as a piece of roast beef from the deli and barely room temperature. Disappointing. My comparison is Taino Smokehouse in my home state of CT. An amazing restaurant if you are ever in the state. The side mac & cheese was over cooked. The elbows were mushy. As were the green beans. Mushy and over seasoned. Far too salty. I would not recommend SP&CC and am very surprised it has such a high rating. read more

Staff is friendly, unfortunately that is the only good part of my experience. The food is all sub par. Sauces all taste like hot sauce, vinegar and sugar. All meat is smoked with black jack, which is a oak saw dust puck. The food leaves a musky taste in your mouth well after you leave. Pulled pork tastes like charcoal. A real shame, I always like a good BBQ restaraunt. This is not one. read more

My boyfriend and I came here for an early dinner. We had been recommended this place by a local salesman a couple months back. We love BBQ and have been disappointed by the lack of good BBQ in the area. We were seated immediately. Our waitress was attentive, informative and prompt with everything. The food was delicious. We had fried okra for an app. They were crispy and well seasoned. We both had a side salad with our meal. The portion was huge and well worth the up charge. I had a beef brisket sandwich on garlic bread and beans. He had rib dinner with French fries. The meat was cooked to perfection and moist. All the sauces are fantastic, in which we really appreciated the hot/spicy BBQ sauce. This is definitely now one of our go to places. read more

The food was good , average portions fair price the baby back ribs were good. The food could have been a little hotter but overall reasonable price and good service. read more

It's a very nice place to eat with very delicious food and nice and joyfull staff of course I'm going back

Super delicious! Anthony was our server and he was delightful! The Food was fast and delicious. Definitely worth every penny we spent. We are stuffed and happy and we will be returning again soon! :) read more

We had the ribs, turkey and the pulled pork was very tasty and moist . Would have gave it five stars but the Salad bar lacked luster for the price. We will be back again. This our new favorite BBQ place!!! read more

Great Southern style BBQ with Southern hospitality! BBQ cooked just right! Loved it! Plus you get a free ice cream! Prime rib was amazing, the sliced pork was cooked perfectly. The only thing I wasn't crazy about was the Mac n cheese but other than that it was great! read more

Back for a return visit. Fibs are small, short , but tasty . Bake beans good green beans were good but would be better if fresh. Garlic bread could have more garlic flavor . I would come again Park avenue BBQ IN PT ST LUCIE WEST. Is still my first choose read more

My wife and I love this place. It's excellent barbecue, but it's also great for the little touches. When my wife orders turnip greens they bring her peppered vinegar to add onto it. The sources are superb. The meat is tender. Just superb. read more
