Knock this behemoth out before the final bell and it's on the house- and you'll get a free T-shirt! But Ali won it alone, and you'll have to, too- so sorry, no sharing. Three 1/2 lb. patties, 1/4 lb. pulled pork, 1/4 lb. brisket, 1/4 lb. pork belly burnt ends, 6 slices of cheese, 6 fried green tomatoes, 12 fried Pegs pickles, bourbon bacon jam, onion rings, beer cheese, our award-winning chili, and a double order of fries

I went here for a business lunch and was not disappointed. The server was attentive, but not annoying. The food was fresh, hot and flavorful. It was an overall great experience. I’ll have to go back one day ‘after hours’ so I can wash down my meal with an adult beverage.

Terrible first experience. Made reservation of 8 for a birthday party on outside patio. Table was not set up and patio looked more like a storage area. The staff couldn't care less we were there. After 10 minutes of being seated with no one attending to us, we left, went next door and had a nice dinner. Won't go back

The menu with limited to a few items for Father’s Day. I did not know this when making the reservation. I had a blackened catfish salad. The catfish was incredibly salty. To salty to eat. My husband wanted ribs but the only menu item was fried barbecue ribs. They came with a salad relish. No other side was offered and no substitutions could be made. Incredibly disappointing.

We went to their monthly drag brunch and had a fantastic time. The team was extremely accommodating and went above and beyond to accommodate my Open Table reservation request (Ifkyk). Food is fantastic with large portions so that we had plenty of at home left overs. It was a memorable afternoon because the show, the other guests, and the establishment were operating at peak performance levels. I’m happy this is in the neighborhood near my Germantown home and I’ll be back for that fried chicken sandwich!

We had a lovely, quiet weekday lunch. I had the pork belly burnt ends sandwich with their pickle & Brussel sprouts coleslaw on the side. My friend got the smoked Turkey club sandwich with Grippo’s fries. I can definitely see what the fuss is about. I’d love to go back!

We had a reservation and it took over 15 minutes to seat us because they were waiting for Manager. We were seated in hot outdoor room and it took 15 minutes for someone to acknowledge us to only say "I'll get someone to wait on you". Another guy comes in room to only acknowledge us after I asked if he could serve us and he says the lady was suppose to. So lots of confusion. Daniel ultimately was our server and very kind but food took forever, etc. Food was good but not sure I will come back based on our experience.

Having read other reviews, we might have just had poor luck. We had originally made reservations for inside, but it was a nice night and I asked to be seated outside if available. They accommodated us, but sat us basically next to the garbage cans...kind of gross. The inside looked nice and should have asked to move back inside. I ordered the ribs and they were surprisingly dry. I tasted the pulled pork sandwich which I thought was good (generally the easiest bbq to pull off). I did not try the brisket, but one of our guests had the brisket sandwich and thought it was good. Overall opinion of our guests was so/so. One liked their burger and people liked the fries.

Restaurant had no idea how to manage opentable app(overheard conversation between managers). No table available upon arrival. Tried to create table inches in front of extremely loud perform with microphone and amp, in space that required neither. Eventually created seating very close to oil disposal dumpster. Took over an hour for a server to show up and take drink requests. 30 min for drinks to arrive and another 30 min for appetizer to arrive (cold, but should have been hot). One server became visibly intoxicated as the evening passed. One was very sweet and trying to make up for mistakes of management and other server. Food was so-so. Will not be returning.

Stopped in for a quick bite. Original smoked wings for 13$ was a great deal. We added the chorizo dip and it didn’t disappoint. There was enough dip to serve 4.. Drinks were ok but we weren’t there for the drinks. Gluten-free options available

Came in thinking I had a table reserved & I talked to 2 people that told me we didn’t. Nobody could find my reservation. We left because the place was so crowded. We tried to sit at the bar & ordered 2 drinks but after a long wait we never got them & walked out.

Had a reservation and still waited 15 mins for a table. Once seated we waited almost 30 mins for drinks- alcoholic and nonalcoholic. The food arrived another 40 mins later. One server……no heat on inside so it was freezing. Wings were good. Smoked Bloody Mary was served in a VERY small glass loaded with ice. We came, we tired but won’t be back. Needs a lot of work on the service side.

Four Pegs has indoor and outdoor seating. It was a nice day so we decided to sit outside. The first thing we saw walking to our table was the smoker grill filled with chicken wings - and they looked amazing. So we tried the lemon as well as the cajun wings. They tasted even better than they looked! We also tried the brussel sprout salad, which is worth ordering. We tried four different entrees and all were delicious. The staff was great and put in extra effort. We will definitely be back.

This was our first time here.The food was fresh and amazing. Everything that was ordered by our party of 6 was very good. The 502 Queritto was our top choice. We were seated in a back 'Ali Room' because of our party size. It was okay but did remove us from the atmosphere in the rest of the restaurant and bar. The karaoke was passionate. We will definitely return soon.

This was terrible. Never acknowledged reservation. Waitress was nice enough. Restaurant out of a lot of food nearly half the menu. Several staff standing around. Staff spilled water it too several minutes for another staff to attempt to mop this up. She made a huge mess of moping it up. Second staff member mopped with a foul smelling mop. Our food arrived cold and tasted horrible. First and last visit to this establishment.
