Here’s a tip, when you walk into a restaurant and you see trophies for multiple years in a row spanning decades, eat anything on the menu. The owner is an amazing Master barbecuer, the manager and the staff are absolutely on point. I recommend everything they make. I’ve tried most of it and I absolutely love it.

With high hopes and an empty stomach, I recently visited this establishment to satisfy my cravings for smoky flavors and grilled goodness. While my visit left me with mixed feelings, I can confidently say that the food at When Pigs Fly BBQ was just okay, without being extraordinary or disappointing.

Where do I start…..Ive always loved this place as a local spot in Vista but when we hired them to cater our 180+ guest wedding….WOW! Literally every single person has been raving about the food (Tri Tip, Pulled Pork, Mac’n’Cheese, Potato salad, green salad, and cornbread). Thats been the first comment from everyone, “Wow, that was the best wedding food we’ve ever had!”. Not even joking on that. Can’t thank Izzy enough for everything. I even gave the poor girl the wrong address to the place, and she figured it out and was even set up in time!!!!

Great breakfast sandwich. You get your choice of meat, egg made to order and cheese on a hamburger bun. I had brisket with eggs over-medium. So good. Lots of meat. Highly recommend.

Sorry previously I posted a review for this place but it was meant to be for The Flying Pig pub. When I picked up my plate with a friend and there were some meat options unavailable for purchase which was disappointing. The food tasted good, although some parts did tend to be greasy for my liking.

People were nice food was underwhelming, very basic, not good at all. The only person who seemed to enjoy the food was my son and he had a hot dog and french fries. On my way home I had to pull over for my daughter to vomit. I’m not one to leave reviews and negative ones at that but I feel like I waited my money. We will not return.
