Authenticity, Generosity and Gratitude.
This Little Pig is an upscale, casual restaurant featuring farm-to-table, American cuisine with a focus on unique barbecue. Our guiding principles are simple: Authenticity, Generosity and Gratitude. TLP is the creation of husband and wife partners, Jeffrey and Mandy Cooke who have spent their careers in the food & beverage and field. Jeff and Mandy met while working on a riverboat casino in Missouri. Mandy in the beverage department and Jeff in the back of the house (kitchen).
The couple loves to travel and has a passion for Americana and local, traditional foods. Their mission is to create a cuisine and an experience that is both familiar while new and exciting to the senses. We utilize as many indigenous, local ingredients as possible from local farmers, artisans, brewers, coffee roasters, distillers, cheesemakers and foragers. It is important to Mandy that you have a warm & welcoming experience with us and Chefs Jeff and Phil bring creativity and commitment to quality with them to the kitchen each day.
Enjoy local beers, ciders and craft cocktails with locally distilled spirits, scratch cooking with locally grown (in-season) vegetables and livestock harvests, honey, maple syrup and cheeses from the Western New York area.

Awards include Best Meatball and People Choice in Buffalo's Meatball Street Brawl 2017, Second and Third Place in The Iron Event 2017 and 2018 respectively and always finds their way onto local food bloggers top ten lists for our Brunch.
