We came to Blind Pig on the west side to celebrate my sister’s graduation, and it turned out to be one of the worst dining experiences we’ve ever had. Our server, McKenna, was rude, disrespectful, and completely unprofessional from start to finish.
She repeatedly used the F-word loudly around children at our table. Then, shockingly, she made a racist and inappropriate comment, saying:
“Y’all are chill so I won’t charge y’all, as long as y’all aren’t Black and not tipping.”
She also spoke negatively about another group and said, “They should kill themselves,” referring to them making her coworker cry.
On top of that, McKenna messed up all of our tickets, couldn’t figure anything out, and started yelling at us. When we were standing near the register waiting for our checks to be sorted out, she was passively aggressive and pushed past me and my husband, brushing us aside without saying anything.
The manager came out briefly but was no help at all. He tried to assist, then just walked away and left us to deal with the chaos.
This kind of behavior is completely unacceptable. I hope the management at Blind Pig takes this seriously and addresses it appropriately. We will not be returning.

Employees are all woke and mindless.. heard it’s closing, how sad

At a recent visit to the Eastside Tavern, the burgers were overdone to the point of being tough and tasteless. French fries were cold and soft. The previous time we went, my burger was very greasy. I give up.

Turkey reuben is pretty awesome. Price is pretty reasonable and good service.

I enjoyed this place! The service was great. The food was timely and tasty, except the slaw. Get the fries instead.
Parking: Paid street parking. We were lucky because we were early. I can see this being a problem when it's a busier day or time.

I'll tell you a story, a young person shared, 'I could never be a cook here, worse, not even a dishwasher'.
I’ve visited this restaurant three times over the last couple of years. Upon entering this time, there was an unpleasant odor, reminiscent of old mop water, mildew, mold, indicating they might not be using clean water for cleaning. Despite this, I noticed they had a 97 on the health inspection, which reassured me, so we decided to stay.
I ordered the pulled pork sandwich while my guest had a double burger. We started with mozzarella sticks, which came with ranch dressing instead of marinara—something our server, Evelyn, kindly warned us about in advance but I still found odd. My side salad was disappointing as it came without cheese or croutons, which seemed like unnecessary cost-cutting.
Additionally, the large signs announcing a new 3.5% fee for credit card payments were quite distracting, adding an extra cost for consumers.
Overall, while I wouldn’t recommend this place anymore due to the various issues, I might still visit in the future. Evelyn was a good server and made the experience somewhat better.

The BEST burger I've had in a minute! Highly recommend the Fat Matt! It was so good I went back for dinner and got wings, which were also excellent. Friendly staff and great food.

Blind Pig is always satisfying. If you want wings, tots and beer, this is the place to go!
Why are there aggressive signs and rules all over the restaurant? Other than that food is good
