    Pork rolls 10/10

    We really enjoyed Improper Pig! They serve BBQ with an Asian twist. We made a meal of the chow bao buns, mac & cheese, and pork rolls. By the time the nachos arrived, we were full! The pork rolls were absolutely delicious and the sauces that come with them really took the flavor up a notch. Bao buns aren't really my thing but they were really good too with the spicy hoisin sauce! The pulled pork was juicy and flavorful. The brisket was tender and but had a really smoky flavor that was a little too much for me. Next time we go, we will definitely order the pork rolls again, but I want to try more things on their menu.

    Delicious! My family and I got a little bit of everything on the menu and we're not disappointed. The different sauces they have available were awesome! Pictured above is the Improper Charcuterie. They do not take reservations, but for a table of 6 we got right in at 5 pm!

    This was fine as long as you like blackpepper and vinegar. I loved the warm pimento cheese. All the meat was very dark. The sides were all decent.

    Reason why staff made a 6 year old cry.

    I am a Fort Mill local and often take my kids to this restaurant for quality family time. Over the years, we've never had any issues; the service and food have always been great. However, today was different. The server and manager were rude, making my 6-year-old cry over playing with a small plastic pumpkin decoration. They claimed they had warned us, but we never heard it. They told my children not to touch the decorations and disciplined them in front of me, saying, "since your father is not telling you... (I will)," which I found completely inappropriate. I questioned why this was a big deal in a family-friendly restaurant since my child wasn't causing any disturbance. The manager, DARIAN GREENE, made rude comments after I complained about our treatment. When I expressed my concerns, she offered to cover the bill to "help the sour taste in your mouth." - very rude! As we were leaving, they started filming and taking pictures of us as if we were criminals. Another person claiming to be the manager (the cook) walked out of the kitchen defending the staff's behavior and questioned my parenting skills over a simple Halloween ornament. I wanted a logical explanation for this treatment. It was a bizarre experience, and I can't understand how any business can afford to treat customers like this. I hope the owner addresses this issue and that the staff apologizes to my child. Despite this incident, I have no complaints about the food or atmosphere. If I were the owner, I'd want to know about employees ruining my business.

    Very impressed with food, service and atmosphere. Brisket was amazing. Mac and cheese very flavorful. Slaw was average .

    Ran downtown for a quick lunch and the service was fast and friendly! You can't beat fresh food this quick!

    The roasted chicken was some of the best I have had. BBQ was smoky and excellent! Get their Eastern NC sauce

    Great place! Best lunch we have had in a while and we eat out a ton. Most definitely be back.

    Sliced Brisket Sandwich

    We came here for dinner one week night and was happy to find decent bbq. The interior of the restaurant is well lit in the main dining room, but we opted to sit at the bar which can seat up 8 people near the kitchen. The service was good as the bartender did a good job consistently checking on us. We started with the fried pork skins (chicharrones) which were surprisingly very delicious. They came out fresh and as we ordered with the bbq rub on the side. I never had blue cheese with my chicharrones but I have to say it is a great addition to the dish. For my main course I had the brisket sandwich which was OK my only complaint is I wish the meat was a little more tender and moist. Overall good food and ambiance, I plan to visit in the future and try out some of their happy hour specials.

    I visited The Improper Pig on a Sunday at opening time. I was excited to experience it as I love bbq and they had great reviews and a visit from one of the food network shows. I loved the architecture and overall look of the older building which has been well maintained. The inside was clean and aesthetically pleasing. Our service was great and all the employees were friendly! Everything was great but the bbq was just a total miss for me. I enjoyed the Jalapeno grits and sausage link. However, the brisket, pulled pork and ribs were all very dry and had minimal flavor.

    Great food, great atmosphere!! The manger Cameron is very attentive, caring, and friendly. He suggested the pork rolls and they were AMAZING!! The sauces to dip them in were phenomenal and paired very well. The improper ceased is such a tasteful salad. I recommend the green beans and collards. You will love them! I can't say enough good things about the cleanliness of this location, the flavorful food, and the amazing service. They also have amazing merchandise which I bought!

    Improper Charcuterie   DDD!!! Also, home made chips are delicious

    Hands down my top favorite home cook, dry rubbing, mouthgasm, finger licking BBQ joint. If you visiting South Carolina, this is a must go to places. First, the restaurant is located in Fort Mill, and is surrounded by brick structures with character. The min you parked or roll down the window you can smell the smoke of deliciousness. The service is amazing, very helpful with recommendations. There pineapple lemonade cocktail is a must try! This place is perfect for family dinning or date night. Put your phones away and enjoy good food, good drinks, and good people! Southern hospitality

    I've been wanting to check out this cute location since it opened and I finally was in the area…read morearound lunch time to give them a try. I was a bit early for lunch arriving around 11:30 am. There was only two people in this very cute restaurant. Lots of table and chairs inside and outside for seating. I was a bit overwhelmed trying to take everything in. They have a counter top where you can see them cutting actual chicken and potatoes for the fries and placing them into what appears to be high pressure deep fryers. This place has been set up to make you the best pieces of chicken you can get. I ordered The Beaut (minus the mayo) a large chicken breast covered in a crispy batter and perfectly deep fried! There was a good amount of pickles with the sandwich, like 4 or 5 which really covered the entire sandwich so you always got a bit of them. The bun was not my favorite. I'm not sure how to describe it. A little smushed is the best way I guess. I also ordered a 6 piece bites package. These things were full on huge chunks of chicken they seasoned and deep fried. I don't normally like to take pictures of food partially eaten but I had to show what one of the bites looked like after taking a bite. They were large, hot and cooked to perfection. I did try some of their BBQ sauce. Not a big fan but it wasn't bad. I also got an order of the skin on hand cut fries! OMG they were so good! They gave me a large bag of hot fries that just totally completed this meal! And I'm talking they should have come with a warning they were so hot! Loved it! As I was waiting for my order to be bagged I notice the large cookies and the glazed hand pies they had on the counter. This isn't like other major food chains so the price is a little higher but you are getting quality food. If you are looking for some good fried chicken and hot fries then I highly recommend this place!

    For some reason I thought it was a hot chicken sandwich place. Very cool throw back dinner motif…read more Ample indoor and outdoor seating. Staff was friendly, food was quick I got the cheesy Beaut the sandwich was a good chicken sandwich crisp not greasy. Good flavor for a standard chicken sandwich, a little more mayo than I prefer, but it's dukes which is outstanding. In retrospect there is a hot thigh sandwich, they need a breast sandwich "Nashville hot" They offer some sauces but it did not notice when ordering, if they ask I would have bought some Slaw was very good It's worth a try, it's very good chicken

And to those of you who write reviews, as I do, you owe it to the staff, management and owners to immediately deal with it. I did not want to make a scene as it was a busy weekend, so I was wrong. I later talked with Tony, one of the owners, who was extremely helpful as we went over the issue. Unfortunately, my bad, there was little he could do to rectify the situation and to determine just why the steak was not to my satisfaction. For whatever the reason, I can assure you, as I did with Tony, that when my wife and I return that is there are any issues I will immediately bring it up to the manager. A good reminder lesson for me. Butcher Shop does have excellent, high quality meat. We will be looking at how the cooking part goes. Could have been a bad night. We will see.
