"On aime toujours l'ambiance du Sauced Hogs et ses merveilleux plats au barbecue. Le personnel est sympa et la musique est bonne. Les soirees karaoke sont mythiques. Nous adorons les sandwichs et les burgers. On reviendra c'est certain !"

"This is a classic dive bar/restaurant- and I mean that in the most complimentary way! Just locals and a splash of tourists that want good food, a cold drink, for a fair price. The Pulled Pork is the star of the show, but all the food is great. I even loved the sides like the cold slaw and fried Okra! The special today was a red fish sandwich - great fish but a bit too much bread. VictorB"

"If I could give 20 starts I will. Shane the owner (without saying he was the owner )0 went above and beyond. My 3 yr old at the time of ordering he asked (Shane ) for chips and since they don't have chips, he send one of the girls to his car to get my son some Cheetos . My son was so happy . Maggie made us feel at home . Is my first time here and it won't be my last. The food is delicious, hotcakes are super big and taste amazing. My husband loved the biscuits and gravy!!! Love it !!"

"By far the best BBQ around. Everything smoked on site. Make sure you get there early on Saturday evening. The ribs feel off the bone, the pulled pork sandwich was delicious. Loaded mash, fried okra and their Ruben rolls were sooooo goooood!"

"Great experience at Sauced Hogs. We had a group of nine people going to a concert that was canceled and decided to get some barbecue. None of us had been to Sauced Hogs but the establishment was recommended by some friends. They were right, the experience was very good. It started a bit disheveled as no one greeted us as we walked in and we had no idea if we had to wait to be seated or not. A line quickly formed at the door yet no one came to help. I went to the bar and again had to wait for a bartender who finally said we were to find our own seating. We pushed a few tables together but a waiter came by and said we couldn't do that near the rear door but didn't do anything to help (you could tell he was slammed as it was very busy). We split into 2 tables and after quite a wait he came back to get drink orders. The waiter was really good and very helpful, he quickly realized non of us had been there before and gave us recommended choices. He kept our glasses full until the food finally arrived. The order seemed to take forever but the place was packed. The food was worth the wait. The prime rib is smoked so nothing like the prime rib in a steak place. It was one of the best prime rib meals I have ever had. The vegetables were also grilled and had a wonderful smoked flavor too. Most were satisfied with their food choices. I will definitely be back for their prime rib!!!"

"First of all great service by a very friendly and knowledgeable bartender. The food was okay, very tender meat, could have used more flavor and we might not have needed the jalapenos, but they were a welcomed addition for sure. The sides to my meal were simply delicious, the green beans and mac&cheese were clearly homemade. Lastly, had I known Thursday was karaoke night, I might not have come, especially after some of those ear popping performances, 6 pm is too early to have drunk folks singing, when I'm just trying to unwind from my day with a peaceful meal. May I suggest open jukebox night instead? Pick a song, any song, just leave the singing to the professionals"
