Moonswiners Bar-B-Q

Amazing find! High quality ribs with a yummy bbq sauce. Yummy sides, including beans and coleslaw. Very nice staff and nice atmosphere. Will come back!

Lackluster bbq with grocery store sides. Kudos to our server for telling us the mashed potatoes were from «powder». Yikes! Really? And the mac n cheese is Stoffers «but it’s actually good». Quote our server. No thank you. I guess we have make it ourselves or head north for descent bbq.

It looks like they took ownership of a brick oven pizzeria that went out of business. The meat had no smoke ring and they cook the food in the brick oven. The ribs were spare ribs not babybacks, the beef and pork were sliced and without sauce, you got nothing. This is not my type of bbq restaurant but I think if you like oven cooked meats then you will like this place. The sauces were tasty but I don’t like to use them unless necessary and it was necessary. The place was packed at lunchtime and the server was good.

Great BBQ, and Cold Beer, we stop here at least once a month! They also have a drive thru if your in a hurry.

Got the combo plate it was good, but didn’t have much meat. I wanted more, and it was a little pricey.

Food was very good not NC bbq but when not close to home it is hard to find somewhere that does it right and they do it right. Sliced not chopped but that is ok. Very good price for what you get and you get filled up. Will recommend it to everyone if you are in Ft Pierce or passing thru at lunch and want Good BBQ stop in well worth it.

This place is not good, small orders, a menu made by a dyslexic person and BBQ worse than frozen bbq at Sams club. A sheer joke. Go to Jones’ old school bbq for some real BBQ food. Avoid like the plague.

This is St Lucie County’s place to be for BBQ. Start with the Corn Nuggets with Ranch and then pick a beef or pork sandwich. Also has some of the best sweet tea in town. Go there enough and the servers will remember your order every time you walk in.

Great place, great food, busy establishment.
Décor is nice, simple, and fits the restaurant, portions are generous, and service is fast.
Sauces are complimentary on the table. Overall, I will keep coming back!

The best bbq around, whenever we are passing through Ft Pierce we try to include a meal at Moonswiners (Dale’s West). Great sweet tea, onion chips with ranch and hot sauce on the bbq pork.

Nice looking, very comfortable barbecue restaurant. Very good BBQ. We ordered the BBQ Combo which had very lean sliced pork and beef brisket and 3 pork ribs along with ½ Smoked Chicken. Sides were okay-​Mac and Cheese, BBQ Beans, Steak Fries– but nothing special.
Lose ½ a star for amount of time it took to get our grub and another ½ a star for the uneven service.
Took awhile to get waited on initially but not where we were calling over staff. Very attentive service when we ordered and when food came but last 20 minutes, we were almost invisible. Had to ask another staff member for a go box and waited at least 10 minutes before I could get our servers attention to get the check.
Que is good though and I would return. Tweak the speed of food delivery and improve service and it’s a five star.

I absolutely love this place, from the extremely friendly staff to the excellent authentic BBQ. This was a real find and I can’t wait to return. It features a simple menu that attracts the locals and I’m always excited to find a stop that the locals frequent.
We sampled a little of almost everything and was not disappointed. If you like good BBQ this is a must try.
Pork Ribs — not fall off the bone but still tender and infused with a smoke that can’t be matched by many and pretty rare in Florida.
Smoked Chicken — ½ Chicken smoked and tender this poultry needs no sauce I love when the chicken is flavorful and can stand on its own this was really special.
Sliced a Pork — although it’s sliced thin on a mechanical slicer that I normal complaint about this pork remained moist and tender and is a real winner,
Sliced Beef — I want a sandwich that’s piled high and smothered in sauce, it was plenty lean and cooked perfectly
The Sauce — a mild and hot vinegar version that is tasty but not what I was expecting I’m so glad the meat stood on its own, this was a little too strong for my taste. I didn’t try the sweet
Coleslaw — too wet there’s creamy then there’s too creamy I’d pass on this one it could use some adjusting.
Fries — I’d rather a thin or crinkle cut over these steak fries want to be potatoes but to each their own just not for me.
Service — extremely attentive and with a personality
It’s a must try if you’re in the area and craving BBQ
