Food waaaaay too spicy. Not kid friendly because everything on their menu was too spicy... even something as basic as corn. Employee should've been wearing hair net because he was cooking with his hair exposed

Amazing BBQ in the D.C. area. For the amount of food you get, service is extremely fast. The food is a little pricey, which is the one potential downside, however for the amount of food and the quality of it I'd say it's worth it. The location is a little strange because there are two doors which is a little confusing, however once you figure it out it's totally fine. The vibe is a little industrial/relaxed which is cool. They were out of ranch when we went which was a little disappointing.

Eat with caution of food poisoning- I don't usually do this but I need to share my experience as I lost a weekend. The three of us came in about 7pm on Friday expecting some great food given the social media, my partner and I just having Texas bbq a weeks back from Dallas, and other reviews. The staff were friendly (service) celebrating a staffer's birthday with some music selection and all. When we ordered the staff were able to help with the menu as this was our first time at the location again very helpful. We got the foo... read more

This was my third time coming to Federalist Pig and all the times have been really good. Service is always exceptional, everyone is really friendly and helpful. The food is great! This time my partner and I shared a platter with different meats and sides. My favorite by far is the brisket. The atmosphere in the restaurant is very casual with seating at picnic tables but nice. I love the self service sauce station as well.

The ribs are very moist & tender, need more smoke on the chicken. Manager customer service was excellent when I exchanged an item #thefederalistpig #eat #foodreview. I'll give the Boneless rib sandwich a 4.9 out of 5 stars

We came here after seeing good reviews. Neither of us are typically BBQ fans and choose BBQ when looking for a place to eat. The inside was big with ample seating. You go into a cove off the to the right and order and the seating is separate out to the left. The cashier who took our order was incredibly helpful. He helped us order for our small kid. They don't have a kids menu but they have options that tend to be catered towards kids. He also helped us save money when we ordered to share. We did the four meats and four side... read more

Ordered delivery tonight from Federalist Pig and I hate to say this, it was one of the worst meals of my 32 years on Earth. We ordered the special for 2, burnt ends, ribs, pulled pork, and pork belly, with double fries, green beans, and chili Mac. Everything tasted horrendous. The ribs were completely dry, the pulled pork was cat food at best (and I absolutely hate using these words but really there's nothing else to describe it), the pork belly was dry, and the burnt ends were bland and dry. We also ordered the oxtail empan... read more
