What a great little hidden gem! We live just a few minutes away and are so glad we finally tried this place. The food was absolutely delicious - fresh, flavorful, and you can tell they put a lot of care into what they serve. Definitely don't pass up on their pastrami! One thing I really like is that they have daily specials that are available only until they sell out, so it's definitely worth checking what the special is when you go. It's a small spot with just a few tables outside for sit-down dining, which adds to its casual neighborhood feel. Nothing fancy or pretentious - just really good food that speaks for itself. What's even more impressive is that this isn't just a neighborhood spot for locals. Visitors actually seek this place out and will make the drive from the Las Vegas Strip just to eat here. I can see why! Definitely one of those places you're happy to discover, and even better when it happens to be right around the corner from home. We'll absolutely be back to try more of the menu and their daily specials! read more

Wild Fig BBQ - Barbeque Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

The pastrami is the star of the show. Without a doubt. Soft,and full of flavor. The turkey was good but not as flavorful as others I have tried. The brisket was soft , but lacked flavor, the ribs: not a fan of the black pepper on top. Not flavorful at all. The Mac and cheese was just a no. It was off ,like it was just velveta and yes that makes me a snob cause I don't like fake cheese The corn muffins were decent. We ordered the meaty beans as well but they forgot to give them to us so no idea All in all. I would go back for the out of this world pastrami It's alittle hole in the wall kind of place. So make sure you don't drive by it. read more

I visited Dallas-Fort Worth a few months ago and hit up a different BBQ spot pretty much every day I was there, which basically turned me into a full-blown BBQ snob, lol. I've been chasing that Texas BBQ high ever since, so when my parents said they loved this place, I had to check it out on my next visit. The brisket and beef dino rib were absolutely the stars -- cooked and seasoned perfectly, fall-apart tender. I loved it so much I looked up their pitmaster and, sure enough, he's from Texas. Definitely tracks. The brisket musubi was also a total knockout, a great nod to Vegas being the "ninth island." Their habanero BBQ sauce had just the right hint of spice to cut through the fat, and the Brussels sprouts and cornbread sides were great too. Can't wait to come back and do this all over again. read more

Wild Fig BBQ - Texas Twinkie - Barbeque Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

Covered parking! Woohoo! Well it's hot in Las Vegas, and we were woefully unprepared for only outside seating. Armed with this ice cold cup of naturally sweet cantaloupe juice, we trips around the building through the rocks to the shaded tables. Food arrived in three minutes. Husband ordered a single meat and one side plate with brisket and beans. Brisket has a very peppery dark bark, and is served half and half with the fatty brisket still attached to the lean brisket slices. Beans included shreds of meat and large chunks of sausage and turkey. Small corn muffin is moist and not overly sweet. He finished his pickles and muffin but had leftovers of everything else. I chose the $12 snack plate with turnkey and corn salad. Beautiful white turkey breast, tender and lightly smoke flavored, surprisingly still very moist. This generous serving was also more than I could eat in one sitting. Homemade pickles of various shapes and slices are a refreshing treat. They are very very sour and tangy. Corn salad has black beans and red peppers in it, topped with a little cheese,a cool creamy contrast to the habanero barbecue sauce. The corn salad is a little sweet and orange but not a distinct flavor on its own. Or maybe my taste buds were numbed by our choice of sauce. We both ordered the habanero barbecue sauce and our cashier giggled a little bit. It is hot but not something we can't consume with a little more cantaloupe juice! Ok, nose running but still enjoyed it a lot. Had to eat and run back to the air conditioned car, which was blissfully parked ...in the shade! read more

I went to wild fig for lunch yesterday. This should be a 4.5 but I don't have that option. The good: reasonable prices, the fries, home made pickles sauces and corn bread were amazing. The bad: I didn't love the St. Louis style ribs. They had pepper crusted on them and were just not my favorite kind of rib though with the Carolina and sweet sauces still quite tasty. They weren't bad per se just not my style. I will definitely go back bc I think some of the other stuff could be more up my alley and all the accoutrements were very very good read more

I keep coming back, which says something in itself. Every Thursday they feature burgers, and they always have their signature Dandan: two 100% brisket patties quick-fried in tallow, topped with cheddar cheese and Dandan sauce on a butter-griddled brioche bun. This week they also offered two specials -- the Oklahoma (Dandan with grilled onions) and the Jalapeño Oklahoma (Dandan with grilled onions and jalapeños). The Dandan has been on my list for a while, so I finally pulled the trigger. I called around 11:30 a.m. and was promptly helped by a friendly employee. After a quick chat about which of the three was best, I went with the Jalapeño Oklahoma and a side of Brussels sprouts. I've had the sprouts before and really liked them -- they felt like a slightly healthier alternative to the usual fried sides. (Though when I arrived to pick up my order, it seemed like everyone else was happily devouring onion rings, which made me second-guess that choice.) As expected, there was a line stretching out the door. I quickly realized I was the only one actually waiting outside. Several people walked straight in, bypassed the line, and got helped right away. Turns out a group of 3-4 people had already ordered and were just hanging out inside in the AC while they waited. Lesson learned: if you've already placed your order, just walk in next time. While I waited, the staff brought out an ice-cold cup of their fresh cantaloupe juice. It's very sweet and genuinely delicious -- highly recommend. I took everything to go and ate at home, so I can't speak to temperature. The burger was big and loaded with meat and cheese -- you couldn't really see the jalapeños or onions at first, but they announced themselves with the first bite. The brisket patties cooked in tallow deliver a deep, rich beef flavor. They're a little firmer than a standard burger (as expected with brisket), so if you're someone who likes a lot of vegetables and toppings, this might not be your ideal burger. But if you're after a straight-up, beef-forward, no-frills experience, you won't be disappointed. The Brussels sprouts were excellent as always -- perfectly balanced with a sweet-tangy balsamic glaze. Let's be honest... I'll definitely be back. Next time I'm trying the classic Dandan -- and those onion rings. read more

It was hard to take phot of the good food because we were on the go but it's important to give this place its flowers. Now I am not from the south but I love the art of BBQ and smelling the smoker and seeing the pit master at work is always a nice touch. The place is teeny so it's ideal to order ahead to speed up the process. They are in the lakes hidden on your right if you're headed towards the 215 on lake mead. The ribs were juicy but Smokey and tender, the cornbread disappeared so fast I barely got a nibble in but man what a nibble I tell ya. The Mac n cheese and the Brussels sprouts were my favorite side dishes. Vast array of meat selections for your group. read more

Tried the breakfast brisket sandwich on a biscuit. The biscuit was very dry and overly salty. Sandwich includes an egg which was never given an option on how to prepare the egg nor was I asked what sauce. The server, Evelyn, was overwhelmed with pickup orders she didn't care to take time to take my order. As I stood there for 10 minutes on my order the server kept using foul language because "someone was blowing up her phone." Had to wait for the server to finishing bagging all the pickup orders while my sandwich sat on the line for 10 minutes only to be highly disappointed on the qualify of the food. I do not recommend this place and definitely don't recommend showing up in the morning as the quality of service is lacking. The quality of service and food does not warrant $16.00. read more

Stopped in for biscuits and gravy this morning which was great. We sat outside and the smell of the brisket cooking was amazing. We may have to come back to try that! They have a small outside dining area and seem to mostly be a takeout restaurant. read more

Wild Fig is lowkey one of the best brunch spots I've been to in a minute. They start you off with this free cantaloupe juice and I'm telling you right now... that stuff is basically crack. Cold, fresh, just sweet enough I would pull up just for that alone. I got the biscuits and gravy with eggs on top and it did not miss. Biscuits were soft, gravy was thick and flavorful, eggs cooked right! Whole thing was just solid comfort food. Spot has a chill vibe, service was on point, nothing felt rushed. Definitely coming back. And yeah... I'm getting that juice again read more

I moved from Chicago to Las Vegas recently. Was wondering if I was going to ever find excellent barbecue here. I'm here to tell you that Wild Fig BBQ is amazing world-class barbecue. The first sign of a good barbecue is that it's just an inconspicuous barbecue place and wild fig is no exception. It's on the side of a reception hall. When I pulled into the parking lot, I knew something special was going to happen. I saw the smoker. A huge 500 gallon beast. Later, I learned that they have 1000 gallon beast in the fenced off area right next to the 500 gallon beast. I could smell barbecue when I walked in the door. And that's a good thing. The people before me ordered their dinner and the owner asked what I wanted to eat and then he said turkey? I said oh no is that all you have left. And he said yes. That's all we have left. So I ordered the one meat combo with turkey and green chili as my side. It came with a piece of homemade cornbread and homemade pickles. I chose the orange chipotle barbecue sauce on the side. Several other people walked in behind me and they all had to order turkey. When they called my name, I took my order outside and sat on the picnic table (another great sign of a great barbecue place). I opened up my dinner and the smell was intoxicating. Let's start with a turkey. Tender and juicy and moist. The hint of barbecue smoke was just amazing. It was probably one of the best smoked turkeys I've ever had in my life. And I've had a lot of smoked turkey. I've even judged smoked turkey in competitions. This was amazing. I dipped the turkey into the orange chipotle, barbecue sauce, and was amazed at the delicious combination of orange and chipotle. Sweet and spicy just hit the spot. It was perfect with the turkey. The homemade pickles and homemade cornbread were delightful. Pickles were crunchy and cornbread was soft and moist and so tasty. I then got to try their house-made pastrami. Along with house-made mustard. So tender and juicy. I was ecstatic to find this type of pastrami available so close to where I'm living. I was also able to test a short rib and a slice of brisket along with their spicy sauce. I will definitely be a regular here and will invite all my friends. read more

Some of the best barbecue in the city with a catch. This is a review I have struggled with for a little while mainly because I am very conflicted by this spot. I will start with the good, I have been here 3 or 4 times since finding out about it, and I can say when you come on a good day, it's possibly the best barbecued meat you can get in this city. However with that being said, it does seem to be somewhat inconsistent, some visits the meat was perfect, then the next time it was dry and not so impressive. So your experience may vary. We have tried most of the side options between everyone, and I will say they are all pretty decent, and some just okay, none were overly exceptional. The mac n cheese, fries, and potato salad are good, with the corn salad being my least favorite. The real reason to come here is the meat. We all thought the little cornbread/muffins and sauces were pretty damn good though. Where things take a fair turn for the worse, is unfortunately the price and how they structure their combos. The 3 meat combo starts at $36+tax which already stings, but what makes it even worse is that they up-charge for 5 out of the 8 available meat options. I dont like that practice at all, the price should encompass all available options aside from maybe 1 or 2 special offerings. When comparing wild fig to what would be in my opinion their strongest competitor here in vegas we will use the 3 meat combo (Pulled pork, brisket, turkey) which comes to a staggering $45.52 including tax. The competitor comes in at $31.42 for almost the exact same plate which is a roughly 45% increase. Price is subjective and when you're in the ranks of the best in town, I suppose you can charge whatever you like, but it's also fair for consumers to compare you against the other options. The service has always been excellent, the owners have stopped by our table to check in almost every time we have been there, which is something I can appreciate. In summary, this spot is definitely worth checking out if you are a fan of bbq and can swallow the pill of the price. I have been debating 3 or 4 stars, due to the consistency issues and pricing. I settled on 4 because it's local owned, and the owner/s have always went out of their way to check on all the guests. If they could tighten up the consistency, implement a price structure that makes sense, and put a little bit more into the sides, this spot could easily claim the title of best bbq spot in vegas. read more

I have been hearing about the good food here and I ordered online for pick up on a Sunday . The location might seem strange at first since it seems like you are going into a gated neighborhood but it's a spacious business center. The location is small but if you order ahead and just pick up it's better than waiting in a line . The bbq was amazing and the employees were so friendly . We really enjoyed the food and will be coming back another time. read more

I had dined here before and really enjoyed the BBQ, which is why I decided to order the Shindig tray for a party. Unfortunately, this experience was disappointing. The Shindig was advertised as including 1 lb of each meat, but when I opened the tray, it looked much smaller than I expected. It honestly looked very similar in size to the 3-meat platter I had when I dined in, so I thought part of my order might have been left behind. I politely messaged the owner asking if I had forgotten something or if that was the complete order. Instead of reassuring me or explaining the portions, I received a response that came across as rude: "Yes, you got the Shindig... it depends who cut the brisket... what's the problem with the order?" I was simply trying to make sure my order was complete. The tray did include coleslaw, potato salad, Mexican corn, and muffins, and the food itself tasted good. My disappointment was with the portion size compared to my expectations for a $140 party tray and the way my concern was handled. As a returning customer who chose this place to cater a party, I expected a more helpful response. read more

First, to the veterans owners thank you for your service. Parking is limited. The place is kinda hidden so if you see the dollar general they are on that area. We drove all the way here to try their cheesy grits and the lady at the cashier said they do not have it today (Sunday) which was advertised they only serve it on Sunday. We decided to go ahead and ordered 3 items a la cart- ribs, beef briskets and burnt ends. They have an up charge $3 for brisket and burnt ends. It came with 3 cornbread and pickles and side orders of macaroni and cheese and brussels sprouts. Drink guava soda. We decided to eat there so its fresh and it was a good weather since they have out door seating only. They deliver the food to you but the same girl told us to get your own utensils inside. Where we sat there was a family in front of us and someone gave them cheesy grits so when I heard it I asked the guy about it. That guy confirmed they have cheesy grits and shrimp and grits. So I told him we were told by the cashier they don't have it so we told her that it was advertised they serve it on Sundays only. He confirmed they do have it. Forgot his name. Even the family in front of us who said they were regulars noticed that something was off about everything today (Sunday). We asked the guy how much and then he came back to our table and gave us shrimp and grits on the house. When it comes to foods--We don't care how much it is we are going to pay it, what we care about is to have a good customer service and great meal. The meat was not tender. Grits were mid. The lack of communication and attitude from their staff needs improvement. It made us feel like they didn't want to serve grits to us . We did not feel welcome--no one is friendly. This review is to help owners to re-assess what happened this day so others won't experience the same. With this experience, I don't think we will go back to this establishment. read more

1 meat 1 side combo (but the side is not shown in the image). A corn muffin, pickles, and sauce are also included in the combo. Burnt ends were very tender and flavorful. I chose Brussel sprouts as the side. Brisket is still my #1, burnt ends following closely at #2. All delicious. read more

Our 2nd visit here and it was just as good as we remembered! I love how they give everyone a complementary beverage (last time it was melon juice and this time hot chocolate). The food is delicious. The brisket & pulled pork were tender and juicy, which pairs perfectly with the fried egg for a yummy breakfast. Every staff member greets you with a smile & seems to truly love their job. There is such a positive energy there & you immediately feel welcomed, no matter how busy they are. The outdoor seating is shaded and well maintained. We've done breakfast here twice, so next time we will switch it up and try something else. Will definitely be back!! read more

Hands down the best BBQ in Vegas. I crave this place often!!! I esp love the burnt ends. The pork ribs and sausage are my next favorite. Brisket is delicious too. You seriously cannot go wrong. I've yet to try the shrimp or turkey or chicken. The sides are all delicious too. My favs are the coleslaw. It has a mild honey mustard flavor which I love. The eggplant is insane. It has an Asian flavor which is my favorite. Corn muffins are fire and the pickles are delicious and available to buy by the jar which I have multiple times. They have some daily specious too like the burger which is fire. The musabi is soooo good. I wish they had it everyday. The pastrami sandwich is so good too. Is thick cut like brisket and doesn't taste like regular pastrami but still so good. I love this place read more

One of the top bbq places I've had in the U.S. We came on a Sunday night around 5:30pm. I was surprised we were basically the only ones there. The waitress took our order inside, we sat outside for less than like 5 minutes and got our food! Everything was delicious. The brisket was suuuuper fatty. The pork fell right off the ribs. The sides were well seasoned and delicious on its own. They were out of burnt ends and pulled pork by the time we came, so definitely want to go earlier and try those next time. read more

I came here after seeing a recommendation on Nextdoor, but unfortunately my experience was disappointing. I ordered the two-meat combo, which was advertised at $27. When I got to the counter, I was told they only had three meats left: turkey, brisket, and pork ribs. There was no indication before ordering that choosing the smoked turkey would add $3.00 and the brisket would add $3.50. My $27 meal ended up costing $33.50 without any advance notice of the upcharges. I also ordered a side of coleslaw for $5.00, but it was left out of my order. I had to drive back to the restaurant to pick it up. While I was waiting, I noticed several flies around the front counter area where customers place their orders. Seeing flies around the food service area was concerning and made me wonder whether the same issue might exist in the food preparation area as well. Cleanliness is something I take seriously, and this definitely affected my confidence. To make matters worse, I was standing in line and ordered before a group ordered who came in after me and chose to eat on the patio. They received their food before I did. I then waited another 5 or more minutes before I finally received my meal. Good food is only part of the experience. Clear communication about menu upcharges, accurate orders, timely service, and a clean dining environment all matter. Unfortunately, this visit fell short in each of those areas. I hope the restaurant addresses these concerns because I really wanted to enjoy the experience after seeing it recommended on Nextdoor. read more

Amazing tri tip and brisket! I enjoyed the brisket sandwich with garlic sauce paired w Cole slaw and key lime pie for dessert. Everything was delicious. Daily specials are always great options as well. Such a welcoming vibe but for this location it's only outdoor seating which is fine, because you're eating BBQ so you can enjoy there or enjoy at home. Either way it's gonna be amazing thank you to the owner and staff for their hospitality! Can't wait to come back read more

Nice quiet neighborhood bbq joint with a shaded, outside dining experience. Across the street from a fire department and full of life. There were so many friendly folks enjoying bbq on the patio tables. As we were waiting in like, we were given complimentary cantaloupe juice. The cashier was helpful in giving his recommendations and our food was ready fairly speedily. We ordered two combos (3 meats - sliced brisket, ribs, burnt ends, 2 sides - coleslaw, mac & cheese [omit the Hot Cheeto dust], 3 corn muffins & 2 meats - ribs, chopped brisket, 2 sides - Brussels sprouts, chili/mac, 2 corn muffins) both with sweet bbq sauce and an order of the chocolate "Texas" Sheet Cake. Everything was well complimented and it was a tasty experience! I look forward to returning again read more

A couple years ago I tried this place and wasn't impressed. I already knew Las Vegas simply didn't have real Central Texas BBQ, so the letdown didn't surprise me. Then a friend told me they'd brought on a new pitmaster from Austin. That got my attention again. When I returned I met the pitmaster, Robert. He's friendly and went out of his way to make me feel welcome. The food this time blew me away. I've eaten at Interstellar in Austin plus Hurtado and Goldee's in Dallas/Fort Worth, and Wild Fig holds up to that standard. Vegas finally has the real thing. It's now in my regular rotation. read more

Wild Fig BBQ - Brisket and green chili plate. - Barbeque Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

Just came back from Texas and this Vegas bbq spot blew me away compared to what I had there (Have yet to try terry blacks though) Everything was good but the standouts were the Wagyu brisket and pulled pork. We got the regular brisket but it felt dry and tough compared to the Wagyu which was much more juicy, tender, and fatty. The pulled pork might've been the best I ever had. Usually it's dry shredded pork drowned in bbq sauce. This was the opposite. It was so tender and moist and had NO sauce on it. The flavor of the meat and smoking really came through. They had habanero bbq sauce, sweet bbq sauce, and the sesame bbq sauce (comes with the Wagyu). I ended up just mixing them all to balance the flavors. Sides were good. If I had to pick a fav it was the chili mac n cheese and Brussel sprouts. Corn bread was surprisingly good considering I normally don't gravitate towards it. Took it to go so can't speak on the service or ambiance but this fed 6+ ppl with leftovers. Literally a fraction of what I paid in Texas and honestly, better.

Five stars is not enough!!!! The place is very unassuming and you may think you are in the wrong spot....you are NOT the gps took you to heaven aka bbq heaven!! We ordered three meat choice they were out of two we thought we would get by just after 1pm on a Saturday. But it led us to other choices we were very happy with. Turkey, brisket, St. Louis ribs. The ribs hands down best we have ever had. The turkey was so juicy with just the right amount of smoky flavor and the brisket was tender and bbq to perfection. It came with two sides we chose the Mac n cheese and the beans. The beans were Smokey and just a perfect combination with the bbq the Mac n cheese just the right amount of cheesy starchiness to side with the bbq. The corn bread was moist a tad sweet and just topped it all off. And three different bbq sauces to pick from. Each one in their own way complimented the meats perfectly. Tangy sweet , mustard, heat your pick for each bite. The gentleman at the register is what you would expect at a bbq place and gave just the right amount of direction towards our choices. Very friendly staff. No indoor dining just some picnic style tables outside. This is definitely out of our way when we are staying on the strip but hands down will make this 20-30 min trip every time we can!!! read more

Finding good BBQ in Las Vegas is like trying to win the lottery, a few people get lucky, but most of us don't. After seeing this place hyped up lately on Instagram and Facebook, I figured I'd take a drive and give it a whirl. It's located in Sun City Summerlin, and parking was a breeze. Ordering and payment were simple, and they even handed me a complimentary cantaloupe juice while I waited for my takeout order. Whether it was fresh or from concentrate, it was tasty and a really nice touch. When I unboxed my food at home, everything looked great and the portions were generous. I went with the 3 meats and 2 sides combo (around $47), choosing brisket, St. Louis ribs, burnt ends, and double greens. Here's the breakdown of how everything tasted: * **Brisket:** They gave me a mix of fatty and lean, which I appreciated. It wasn't dry and had a good amount of rendered fat. However, the outside was genuinely *burnt* rather than having that perfect bark you want to achieve, and it lacked the classic salt and black pepper bite of true Texas BBQ. * **St. Louis Ribs:** Cooked nicely with a great, clean pull off the bone. Unfortunately, the smoke flavor was barely there, and they also lacked basic salt and pepper seasoning. * **Burnt Ends:** My least favorite of the three meats. They had an acrid, "dirty smoke" flavor that was a bit off-putting. * **Greens:** Undercooked and bitter. They needed some brown sugar or apple cider vinegar to balance the flavor out. * **Cornbread:** Excellent. This was true Texas-style cornbread, not the overly sweet "corn cake" that a lot of places out here try to pass off. * **BBQ Sauce:** 6/10. Very sweet but with a vinegar finish. It's an interesting cross between Carolina and Texas styles. * **Pickles:** Crispy, crunchy, and nicely vinegary. **Overall:** Maybe it was just an off day, I'm not sure. The meal was just okay, but unfortunately, not memorable. read more

I love bbq and when my girl brought me here I was excited to try everything based on the smells. The bbq is great. Everything has a lot of flavor and was tender. I hate eating outside and unfortunately that's your only option here if you aren't grabbing takeout. Service was a little weird as the girl who took our order seemed really pissed off. Next time I'm ordering and grabbing takeout. I need to try all their other meats and sides. Will be back. read more

Wild fig has been on my hit list for awhile since I live Texas bbq and had been hearing about wild fig quite a few times. It is an unassuming location with a few tables outside for dining. You can order by pounds of each type of meat or you also have the option to order by the plates, which I think is a better option. We got the three meat plus two side plate and ordered an additional side. We got brisket, pastrami and the jalapeño sausage. They also had different specials daily such as the wagyu brisket. For side, we got the Brussels sprouts, chili Mac, and fries. The plate also comes with cornbread, which was very delicious, the sweeter, crumbly kind. All three meats were delicious, I did feel that the brisket was not as tender as I hoped, so I preferred the pastrami more, which was more tender. The jalapeño sausage was just yummy, had lots of cheese in it too. The chili Mac was weird since it was just the beans on the Mac and cheese, the beans were kind of sweet. The Brussel sprouts were savory, sweet not too crispy but soft and not bitter. The fries were just good fries. Anyway I think wild fig wins in the sides category. Would definitely come back! read more

Wild Fig BBQ - Three meat, two sides plus an extra side - Barbeque Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

This to go only/catering bbq spot is out if this world. We had a group of 11 and took over half of their outdoor picnic table seating area outside. We shared the smoke house shindig and ordered a few extras to go along with it. Everyday has different specials that are not in their regular menu so check their website for updates on what is still available. We got there at 5pm and were already sold out of brisket and burnt ends. We got the picante special, ribs, mexian corn salad, french fries, pemento cheese spread, potato salad, chili mac, gluten free corn muffins,pickles, and oh my gosh the habanero and orange chipotle bbq sauce. We either got really lucky and someone didnt pick up their oder or they found some right before we left the owner asked if anyone wants burnt ends and half of us devoured them in seconds. The owner checked on us a few times as people in our party kept buying more items to go and dessert. We also got a few jars of their melon juice, vanilla soda, and roit beer which is sometimes available. The gluten free texas sheet cake was truly out if this world, I told him it reminded me of a cosmic brownie and the burger king birthday cakes from my childhood. Decadence in every bite for $5 was a steal. We said good bye to a dear friend who is moving but the 10 of us will be back to try every single special. read more

My family and I recently had lunch at Wild Fig BBQ and sat outside in the picnic bench area since we had our puppy with us. We ordered the StickBurner Pack, which included 1 lb of brisket, 1 lb of pulled pork, three pints of sides--we chose coleslaw, meaty baked beans, collard greens, sliced sour pickles--along with six sweet corn muffins and a half pint of sweet BBQ sauce. The BBQ brisket and pulled pork was flavorful and cooked perfectly. The sides were hearty, and the corn muffins were so good. The service was very friendly and helpful. read more

This place is amazing. I have been smelling the barbecue ever since I moved in I had to try it. I highly recommend this place. It is amazing. The food is amazing and is busy as the staff was. They had taken the time to explain the sides to me since I wasn't sure what sides and the young gal suggested the brussels sprouts I concur anyone try the brussels sprouts they are so good. Another great thing is while you're waiting they give you this cup of cantaloupe juice. I never thought to juice cantaloupe, but this was cold. Refreshing on a very hot day. My next trip I can't wait to try the pastrami sandwich. I saw someone with it and it looked so good. They've got a great thing going here and I hope they're around for a lot of years. read more
