We first opened our doors in 1992 in beautiful Southwest Florida. Since then, Porky’s has become a local favorite for serving up steaks, seafood, and our famous slow smoked barbecue. In addition to our restaurant, our full service lounge provides live entertainment ranging from dance bands to karaoke to comedy. Whether your looking for lunch, dinner, happy-hour or nightly entertainment, Porky’s is the place to be. We offer local favorites such as frog legs (known around here as everglades wings), and alligator. Our slow smoked barbecue is rubbed with our own special seasonings and cooked in our wood pit, as true southern barbecue should be. We have also created our own sauces to create the perfect barbecue experience from racks of Baby Back Ribs, Spare Ribs, Chicken, and Sliced Pork.

For the sport fisherman, if you catch it, fillet it, and bring it to Porky’s, we will grill it, broil it, fry it, or blacken it for you!
