The Twisted Pig Bar and Grill - Modesto (CA)

5 /5 Neil Message: Marvelous meat and music! Had the half rack ribs and the wife had the dip tip. Both totally delicious, staff were friendly so friendly. Well worth a little diversion from going north on 99.

5 /5 Ernest Lopez: My wife and I wanted to try a new place so we basically took a drive till we ended up in Modesto. The twisted Pig Bar and Grill was damn awesome! The food has a “twist” on things “pun intended” the Brussel Sprouts were absolutely Rock Star Level! We shared a tri tip sandwich that was served like a French dip with pepper Jack! It was absolutely delicious. Then we get to the Dessert! Let’s talk Cheesecake with a smoked maple syrup and bacon bits. Yum on the yum level exceeded my taste buds expectations! This place was quiet when we arrived and as we were leaving it was definitely getting busy! This is a place we would take visiting family!!

2 /5 Allison: Disappointing. I have been wanting to try this place and I don’t think I’ll be back. The service was extremely slow, 3 people took 1.5 hours from sitting down to leaving, and we only ordered a beer and 3 entrees. When we sat down, the table next to us had dirty dishes on it that weren’t cleared off until just before we left. The table on our other side still had dirty dishes from the people that left about 20 minutes into our time there. I ordered the Mac & Cheese as my meal, and it was not at all as described on the menu. It’s supposed to have a beer cheese sauce, but it was SO dry I think they forgot the cheese sauce (see picture)- I’m glad the pulled pork had BBQ sauce in it so I could mix it together. The menu also said it comes with bacon & breadcrumbs, but it came with neither (came out with just the noodles & pork). I let the server know it was missing bacon, which she said it wasn’t supposed to have that in it (despite it listing it on the menu) but she did come back with a cup of bacon. So I’m not sure if it’s an error on the menu, but if it is that needs to be fixed. The positives are the pulled pork is tasty, and the portion size is great (the picture is my leftovers). And the two others I was with liked their meal well enough. But for me this experience was not good enough for me to come back again.

5 /5 Tri Daddy: The Bloody Mary got them 5 stars by itself. But all the food was awesome, and the service was some of the best in the valley! Great draft beer list! We loved this place! Cant wait to go back!

5 /5 Tammy: Went for lunch today and it was so good. I had the Mac and cheese with pulled pork. Jessica was so nice and let me take my time, thank you for a wonderful lunch.
