10 Best Barbeque Restaurants near Gig Harbor

“This is by far the best BBQ in Western WA. Everything is good. Portion sizes are great and prices are reasonable. We drive an hour just to get great BBQ. We have met people who drove 3 hours to just eat the excellent BBQ. They also have vegetarian options.“

“Hands down best Nachos period. Find another joint that has better nachos and we can have a challenge. The whole menu is on point. Can't miss, with this PNW BBQ“

“Do not know what some people are talking about, we had the Hot and Sour soup was the best we've had in many years then the Chinese peppered Pork Chops. OMG the best I've had in 26 years. This place is inviting and the food is great.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 10/10 – Our Favorite Spot on the Trip! We stopped in during a girls' trip and fell in love with the vibe. It's fun, cozy, and full of good energy—the kind of place that makes you want to stay a while. The owners were incredibly friendly and attentive, making us feel like we were right at home. Every single dish we tried was bursting with flavor—absolutely exquisite. And the drinks? So unique and delicious, you’ll want to try them all. From start to finish, the service was fantastic. This was hands down our favorite place on the trip. If you're in town, do yourself a favor and don’t miss this spot. Sooo good“

“I’ll make this easy for you: go. And eat the roasted pork and BBQ pork, then thank me later. Lin was welcoming, kind, and helpful recommending the perfect dish for my first visit. I destroyed everything on the beautiful plate and could’ve sat there and ate it again. Her father, who prepares everything fresh daily, deserves high praise. Pro tip: go early before they sell out. 10/10 would recommend.“

“Delicious barbecue and sides 🤤“

“I discovered this place today. It is, hands down, some of theeee best food I have eaten in Washington state. It is a spectacular blend of flavors and seasonings with 5 star presentation. My 4 year old obliterated the duck 🦆 sammich!“

“Outstanding Barbecue & Exceptional Service

My wife and I were craving barbecue the other night. I told her there weren’t any good barbecue spots left in Tacoma, but she insisted, “Dickey’s is good!” I’ll admit — I was skeptical. Still, you know what they say: happy wife…

We placed an Uber Eats order close to closing time, and although a few items were unavailable, the team more than made up for it. They sent generous portions of ribs, brisket, pulled pork, and sides. I was genuinely surprised — the food was excellent, flavorful, and plentiful.

A couple of days later, my wife wanted more barbecue for lunch, so we ordered again. This time, I called ahead and spoke with Emilia, the GM, to mention the items missing from our previous order. She was incredibly kind, gracious, and understanding. Once again, the food was delicious, and Emilia made sure we received everything we were owed — plus a few extra treats.

Dickey’s delivered great food and even better customer service. We’ll definitely be ordering again.“

“Such a fun place! We’re from Texas so of course this place felt a little like home! Lauren was our server and she was PHENOMENAL!! I told her about a mishap at our previous hotel involving mustard and a dessert and this is what she surprised me with a super sweet gift when we left! We’ll definitely be back!“
