One of our favorite, large portions, coleslaw is the BEST! The new renovation makes it look more open . Drink menu had a good selection. ( just don't like scanning code to see drink menu) Also great on Sunday for football if that's your thing. read more

Its ok here. To be fair, our crew of rowdy nurses showed up(20+ with people coming and going the whole time) for a kind of going away celebration. However, the service was not great. Trying to be understanding, we didn't say much about it but the servers were seriously upset that we were there. Im not sure anyone's tab was cheap, so the potential for am amazing tip was there. I digress, the food is ok, really generous portions. Bring hungry friends because every serving of everything is enough to share. Nothing fancy which is nice. Overall, not terrible. read more

Horrible service. The food was decent at best but definitely not worth the hassle or prices.

Happened to be in the neighborhood after going to a class in the nearby library. Found this restaurant on Yelp and decided to try it, and I am glad I did. Half price ribs on Monday. I ordered the pulled pork with broccoli and bbq beans. All was good. Madison was an excellent server. Very friendly and attentive. Will definitely come back with the wife. Meal came with food in containers so I put it on the plate to eat. read more

The Flyin' Pig - Hickory Smoked Pulled Pork Plate - Barbeque Near Me - Midlothian, Virginia

Good atmosphere and service. Decent food. The BBQ has a little too much liquid smoke in it for me.

Came here for lunch today and was very disappointed. I got the pulled pork BBQ sandwich. The pork was at least a day old had obviously been sitting out for a while and reheated. I've heard good things about this place and was looking forward to some good BBQ. Maybe hit or miss at best from my experience. My waitress was kind and helpful it's a shame the kitchen could not back her up. read more

Found out why it seems to be empty so often. I apologize to the hostess who I had to inform there was football on Sunday evenings. Word of warning for others who try to inform her of this: Prepare to be sat next to the kitchen door for your perceived insult. Food came out cold. Pulled pork was flavorless. Sauce bottles didn't work. Cajun seasoning was gritty and poor quality. I actually bought better Cajun seasoning at the food lion down in the shopping center, so I know it didn't come from there. My waitress was great and my food usually tastes great. Not sure what happened tonight. read more

the food is awesome, the staff is nice, and the remodel is so pretty! We also tried the cheese steak egg rolls (so good with the queso dip) and the fried mac and cheese balls (also really good with the jalapeño ranch) loved everything! read more

The Flyin' Pig - twosmoked brisket tacos and a side of fries - Barbeque Near Me - Midlothian, Virginia

Best BBQ in the area! the sauces have both sweet and vinegar (NC style.) I had their to-go and it was amazing. Get the mixed plate!

We have come here for the past 4 to 5 years , and order the Philly cheese steak egg rolls. Sadly over time, they have gotten smaller and smaller. They now look like spring rolls, not egg rolls. We love the salads and atmosphere. Great staff. read more

This is the go to place for wings for my family. It's a great upbeat atmosphere with pretty good service. They have a decent amount of draft beers and the BBQ is so good that I'm considering having them cater an event for us. While you're waiting for your Barbecue Pork Tacos, you need to get the Cheesesteak Egg Rolls. The cheese dip is amazing! read more

Came here to enjoy happy hour one weeknight (Tuesday) and decided to stay for dinner.... Service in the bar was great! Our server did an excellent job anticipating our needs, taking care of us and being friendly. She was helpful and knowledgeable with the menu as well. They have some amazing eats here! The salad is loaded with fresh greens... Their shrimp taco is handbreaded and VERY fresh and tasty... Their sweet potato fries are very nicely breaded and tasty as well. They have some VERY nice items on their menu, which (based on the food we enjoyed) are probably all freshly prepared, in-house. The place is nicely done too.... Kind of "industrial" like a typical BBQ joint with a dining room and hi-tops in the bar... Clean restrooms too. Overall, this place really impressed... The service + food + an amazing experience! read more

Yesterday my husband and I got a rare lunch break sans kids and decided to check out The Flying Pig. We had gone once or twice for takeout during the pandemic but wanted to try dine in. The restaurant doesn't look like much from the outside but the inside is really nice. Lots of seating, nice looking bar, and overall very clean appearance. We sat at a high top and since it was mid afternoon we didn't indulge but we're pleased with the selections on tap. We split the hush puppies for an appetizer and they were amazing. The honey butter was amazing with the slightly spicy batter. I got the Mac and cheese and burnt end tacos. For lunch you could just get one and with the hearty side and an app, it was the right choice. It was DELICIOUS and juicy and had just the right amount of spice. The Mac and cheese was creamy and super filling. My husband got the pulled pork sandwich and wings combo. I don't like wings. But holy cow they were good. And the pulled pork was phenomenal! We don't eat barbecue out much anymore because my husband smokes his own but this was on point. Can't wait to go back to try something else! read more

Best ribs I have ever eaten! Service is also top notch. The servers are getting to know me since I've been there about 6 times in 2 months!

Great bbq and amazing wings. All the sauces are to die for and they even sell em in jars to take home. Sooo yummy! Our server was so nice and she walked us through the menu so well. It was busy and they were still so nice and fast but didn't compromise flavor at all! I highly recommend the hush puppies!!! read more

Pleasant staff. Pleasant atmosphere. Delicious food. Pork barbecue is practically perfect. Weird, but very tasty coleslaw. It has pineapple in it. Delicious ribs. And they're stuffed baked potato - with barbecue- is unbelievably good. read more

Just went here for the first time last week. Got the Buffalo chicken sandwich which was delicious though I can't wait to go back and order the wings. Way more meat and less carbs for the same price if you get the boneless wings which are HUGE. Also their Monday drink deals are amazing and the sangria is soooo delicious Already dreaming about my next visit and hope to be back soon read more

Not much more to say except amazing. It's always good. Food and drinks! Definitely recommend. We go for the Great appetizers

Wings were awesome but shrimp appetizer was not. We also got several drinks that were good but were chargers for an extra drink that I am glad that we caught. Would come back to watch games on Sunday. read more

An overnight business trip brought me to Richmond. In the past, I have been pleasantly surprised by the quality of BBQ in the area. This was my first time here. Overall, it was a good experience. I was a tad disappointed at the lack of brisket. I know, pig is literally in the name. I had the wing and taco combo. Smoked wings that are flash fried are a favorite of mine. Nekkid, please, and thank you. These wings did not disappoint. They had a nice smokey flavor, crispy skin, juicy, and delicious. I was less impressed with the pulled pork taco. This one is half on me. The menu clearly stated cheddar/jack cheese. I don't typically put cheese on BBQ but I did. The taco came in a flour tortilla. It was grilled. With the melted and burnt (good thing) cheddar, it tasted and ate more like a quesadilla. The cheese, combined with the slaw, really overpowered the pulled pork flavor. The pork alone did have a good flavor. The service was good as was the atmosphere. OK beer selection. Many of the brews I was interested in were tapped but left on the chalkboards. The restaurant was busy and appeared to be enjoyed by many. The price was in line with what I would have expected to pay. The wings would bring me back to explore other menu options. read more

Good food. Good ambiance. Nice to go have a night out with friends. Parking accessible.

I just had a great evening at the Flying Pig! Ariel and Taylor were fantastic bartenders...they make everyone feel special and welcome.

Great burgers, wings end love their fried pickles. Everything we've tried has been awesome.

This is a great restaurant. The wings are huge and delicious. I had the honey siracha and the "heat" was perfect. They came hot and cooked perfectly. A couple were the size of a small leg. Our server, Holly, was friendly and very attentive. The price is very reasonable for the large sized wings. If in the area again we will definitely stop in again. read more

The Flyin' Pig - Siracha Wings - Barbeque Near Me - Midlothian, Virginia

Something has changed. I have recommended The Flying Pig too many people and have enjoyed their barbecue for a while now, but on my most recent visit I was seriously disappointed with both the service and the barbecue. When I write a review and recommend a restaurant to people I don't even know, the last thing I want to do is to see anyone disappointed. That is why I have to knock at least one star off my previous review because if I was a first-time customer I would have been really surprised and might not trust the reviewer because the service was really sub par and we just could not believe the enormity some of the mistakes made by the server and how incredibly different the barbecue was this time compared to previous times. The first thing was that the server did not notice that one of the service packets of knife and fork had a big chunk of food attached to it. I had to draw that to his attention and he got me a replacement. We didn't get any offers of refills of our water or drinks or beer. Our orders came out with sides on the wrong plates and one side never came at all, and he never really asked if we got everything that we ordered. I couldn't believe how greasy the barbecue was. I don't know if they are cutting corners now that the owners have a third restaurant or if this is just a lack of management or an operational issue, or just cutbacks in general, but had to sop up the grease and let the grease drain so that the barbecue would even be edible. It's hard to even leave a 3 star review but I know that they can do better than this and maybe it was just an off night, the macaroni and cheese is still incredible and the wedge salad was delicious. The Flyin' Pig is about 17-18 miles from where I live, that is a long ways for a restaurant to have an off night, it is a ways to go to end up getting less than what we feel like we paid for or deserved. So reluctantly I leave 3 stars and will only stop by if simultaneously in the area and craving Mac and cheese. read more

Stopped in while visiting friends in Woodlake and thought the bar-b-que was decent (moved here from Texas and have learned to order pork, not brisket), but have to give them 4 stars for offering fried okra. Absolute best side with bar-b-que. but so few places offer it around here. read more

It pains me to write this, but perhaps it will help improve things for others in the future. I'm just now returning from the single worst experience I've ever had associated with a simple take-out order from a restaurant. The order was not complex; only comprising of 3 meals. The initial indication was "your order will be ready in 45 minutes." I arrived 45 minutes later and was told it would be "maybe another 15 minutes." Fifteen minutes later I was told "I'll go check on the order for you, sir." That person never returned. Fast forward another hour; I was apologized to and offered a soda for my patience. I waited another 20 minutes and asked that my order by cancelled. Now, after 8 PM I need to figure out what I'm going to feed my wife and child. Obviously, no one is going to starve. However, this was not a matter of "patience" this was overt incompetence on the part of the restaurant. I once raved about the Flying Pig, but this is my second negative experience in the past 3 week. Disappointing. read more

I come to the restaurant often as I live right down the street. My favorite meal is the chili bowl with cornbread. Each time it's been an adventure. Long wait times and poor service/communication. For some reason every time I order cornbread the kitchen starts moving in slow motion as of they didn't expect anyone to order it. They should take it off the menu if they are so inept at preparing and serving it. My most recent experience? A 30 minute pickup order took an hour. For my troubles I'm rewarded with lukewarm food and extra piping hot cornbread. Best of luck cornbread lovers. I'm not coming back to this place if I can help it. read more

Hit or miss. I guess depends on who's working. We've been three or four times. They get it right 1/2 the time.

Great food! Nice portions. Polite staff, as well as management. Would recommend this restaurant to others.

Delicious. The bbq sauce was amazing. Shredded pork was smoked perfectly. Will be returning when in the area!!

This was our first visit, and will NOT be our last. Our server, Jessica, was friendly, extremely attentive and helpful. The food was amazing and left nothing to be desired, and overall the restaurant was clean, and the atmosphere was spot on. Highly recommend this place to everyone. read more

This was my first time here and the food and service was great. The ribs was falling off the bone good and very flavorful. I will be back!! read more

The Flyin' Pig - Ribs, Mac and cheese and baked beans - Barbeque Near Me - Midlothian, Virginia

On our way back from visiting my deceased mother's gravesite, we decided to stop by the flying pig. We live a good hour from this restaurant. We arrived at 4:45pm and the hostess said the wait for our party of 6 was 30 minutes. We decided to wait. We watched large party after large party come in and be seated but we remained patient. After, 40 minutes we checked with the hostess who said we it would another 15 minutes. Again we waited patiently. We saw a party of 6 leave so I went and asked the waitress if we would be seated soon. She said she isn't sure when we will be seated. I said a party of 6 just left how are we not the next for that table. She said well a lot are at booths so the smaller parties are seated first. I explained our situation that we are tired, emotionally drained from the events of the day we don't live close to this restaurant. So I would appreciate if you could be honest and tell me how long. She said I don't know. I said that's sad because no one can make an informed decision if they want to wait or not. The girl just stared at me with no assistance with a true wait time. We decided to leave. As we were leaving a couple of two were also walking out because they called the restaurant and was told there was no wait time. Of course when they arrived was told there was a wait but wasn't told how long. I wish there was an option to give zero stars but unfortunately Yelp makes you give at least a one. Flying pig I hope you train your staff better to handle these situations. I would have rather your hostess say the wait it an hour or two then to string us along in hopes that we would get a table. read more

I usually stop in and sit at the bar for a delicious Bloody Mary with signature bacon while I wait for carry out. Delicious food, wonderful staff. Even the patrons are lovely people. I highly recommend read more

Great wings, bbq, everything! They do a great job with curbside pickup. Specials all the time, so like their Facebook page! This is a definite MUST visit! read more

The food and service were both great, which is a rather uncommon occurrence nowadays unfortunately. I had the fried pickles as an appetizer. If you've ever had fried pickles as spears as opposed to chips, they tend to have the problem of coming unattached from the breading and scolding your mouth on the initial bite, but I was pleasantly surprised that these fried pickle spears did not have that problem! The chicken and waffles were also delicious, huge pieces of chicken. read more

Unfortunately, the food didn't quite meet expectations. The corn bread was dry, the greens were under seasoned. I guess my expectations were too high. read more

My husband and I tried this restaurant for the first time on a whim and we were deliciously pleased. I only wished I had taken pictures as the portions were of an ample size. Mini corn muffins were served before the meal. I ordered the Barbecue Taster with double pulled pork. The pulled pork was very tasty and tender. The ribs were a testament to falling off the bone. My husband ordered the 1/2 Rack of Hickory Smoked Grilled Ribs and remarked about how tender they were and how good the corn muffins were. We both said we definitely will be making a return visit, I just wish the barbecue sauce was available for sale. read more

So good and such a fun environment. We love the salads and appetizers! I got the half salad but it was plenty big enough.
