Not good food and not good prices! 👎

EXCELLENT BBQ and smoked wings! Independently owned and very friendly environment. Highly recommend!

Usually the porkette is spot on but since they have been in the new place it has been hit or miss. Today I ordered 4 plates, the wings were good. The ribs were okay a little tough but the pulled chicken and the riblette sandwich were beyond dry and tough. The cookies were burnt and hard as a brick. Very disappointing

FANTASTIC brisket!! We will be making a trip to Pickens regularly just to have it. The owner is so kind and the rest of the staff was great as well. Awesome 5 star relaxed BBQ joint that I hope stays around for a long time to come!

This is such a lovely little restaurant in downtown Pickens. They have good and tasty food and the staff is always so helpful and friendly. I usually get the hot barbecue sauce that is so good. The prices are good and the service is excellent!
We've been here several times and of course we will be back many more times.

If you like barbecue, just go! Honestly the best ribs, prime rib, brisket, collard greens, and cornbread my wife and I have ever eaten. Met the owner and told him how good they were doing with their food. We were only in town Saturday and Sunday and had lunch here both days. Yes. We came back. Great food! Get you some!

The food is always excellent and the service is top notch, I would recommend you check out this amazing restaurant.

Vegetarian options: They have several veggie options and desserts. However they are mainly a BBQ meat dish restaurant.

Parking: Multiple marked parking spaces specifically for the Porkette in the parking lot located at rear of the building.

Wheelchair accessibility: The front entrance is street level so wheelchair access is not a problem.

Came in late Friday night about 30 mins before close. Staff was kind and helpful, service was amazing always checking if we needed anything even though they were closing up. Awsome service and awesome food, tried all their sauces and idk what they put in that vinegar but it was awesome. I'm very picky when it comes to my food but the portions were huge, the food was fantastic, and all reasonably priced. Would recommend to anyone and I hope they don't close down cause the definitely deserve to become a Pickens staple and be on the pickensopoly board.

Mom and I came in for lunch hoping to try the riblet sandwich and it wasn't on the menu today. they quickly replied they would see if the cook could accommodate our request and thankfully he said yes! this place seems to be all about making sure their customers are satisfied and even brought us out a sample of Brunswick stew to try. it was incredible as well as everything on my plate! the tea is amazing as well today. This is a terrific spot to eat! thank yall so much for a delicious meal and for everyone's attention and hospitality. we will be back!
