Pig Beach BBQ Queens

I love the large space—tons of seating options, outdoor as well, large screens showing local sports teams, standalone bar. The bbq, however, was underwhelming. It’s hard to find American bbq in NYC so it may do in a pinch.

The baby back ribs, usually my favorite, were my least favorite here. The ribs were dry and rather flavorless.

The brisket also tended to be on the dry side and the cut was rather lean so lacked flavor and moisture.

The pulled pork, usually my least favorite, was actually good here. I would probably stick to this order and add one of their sauces and use the toast and make myself a sandwich on my next trip here.

The collard greens and Mac n cheese sides were good, but both coleslaws were inedible due to ice shavings. They were obviously premade and frozen until service.

The venue though makes this place redeemable for future visits. It’s spacious, inviting and all the staff I dealt with were friendly.

(August 2024) Came here with a big group of friends and it was the perfect spot for a large group. It's a very chill vibe with a picnicy kind of feel. We saw mostly younger folks there but it seems to vary in age groups!

Now some of the biggest reasons why we ended up coming here was cause of the food! I'm not the biggest BBQ girly but it was pretty damn good, and I could see why they won awards for it. I personally had the Mac and Cheese (which was AWESOME) and the pulled pork. It's cafeteria style where you go on the line you get a tray and you pick the food you want. You pay at the end and the bar is right there, so you can grab a drink shortly after.

Everything was reasonably priced and there were plenty of TVs showing sports. They also have some games you can either bring to the table or outside game (like cornhole, which I'd SMOKE y'all if you tried playing against me haha).

Definitely a great find in Astoria. Totally coming back!

Really good bbq joint and definitely the best in Queens.
9.5/10 - Their brisket was by far the best thing on the menu. Had a great black crusting.
9/10 - Ribs, not as much flavour as you can get but the sauce & meat falling off the bone was on point
9.5/10 - Easily the best smoked turkey breast I’ve had, not dry at all
8/10 - Pulled Pork, a little too dry for a higher rating
8/10 - Chicken Burger, good fried chicken but the bun was disappointingly lazy
7.5/10 - Cornbread, a little forgettable, needs some drizzled flavour
6/10 - Sausage wasn’t great at all, small, dry and the oozing sauce was unnecessary

The barbecue is also delicious. The self-service system is good.

I went Pig Peach and walked into this huge restaurant/bar/hangout spot! I think this is a great place to come hangout with some friends and watch the game. There’s plenty of room! I wish that they add to it because there just so much space.
My experience however was not as great. Mind you it was not busy and it was not crowded. I ordered the chef Jeff’s brisket sandwich. I was expecting to have fresh brisket but that was not the case. The sandwiches were premade. And when the sandwich was handed to me, it was pretty cold and the bread was hard. I had ordered some large fries to go with it but they had just ran out so I had to wait. As I’m waiting no one explained to me where I needed to go. The woman by the register was checked out. Don’t hand me the buzzer for the meal. Until another gentleman walked over and handed it to me. I asked how long it would take for the order to be ready? The young lady sort of scoffed and replied “I’m I don’t know soon. (After a pause) I guess I’ll check.” But then proceeded to ask another customer to her register and then she took their order. She look at me and said I’ll check after one sec. I stood there pretty confused. Eventually she didn’t check and she told me they’ll bring it out just stand over there. She pointed back toward the area where the the woman was taking orders. I waited eventually the fries were ready and the buzzer went off. I walked over where the fries were on a plate. (I ordered this food to go. I told the gentlemen this and he got a box and poured the fries in. He did t close it. He just said “you got that.” And walked away. 🤣 Even I laughed cause I’m just wondering now: can I have a bag? Where are the napkins? Any help would be nice. I ask the person at the register for a bag and she hands me one. I eventually grab my sandwich and I head out. I can tell this place gets a lot of business but this felt more like a fast food experience than a sit down bbq experience. The sandwich was just ok, it was pretty small but that and the large fries was really not worth the price. I’m sure I caught them on a bad day. I wish this business all the best but I won’t be going back. Doesn’t seem worth it.

Top-notch barbecue! Brisket was very moist and flavorful. Cornbread was amazing as well. Service was excellent and the wide open seating was uncluttered. Would definitely come back!

Just had a Friendsgiving here and I could NOT be happier. Service was fantastic (thank you to Amy, Gabby and Austin for taking such good care of my party). The food was so good that it was really quickly and we had to order more and more! Cannot wait to come back !!!

Nice food, nice ambient but the woman at the register is rude, she almost broke my card when swiping it through the payment device. She’s doing everything in a rush, even though we were the only customers at that moment.
