To me there is no excuse for poor service and bad food, no matter if you\'ve just opened or are going on 20 years in the business, if I\'m a paying customer, I expect to get my money\'s worth, and Green Pig Bistro absolutely delivers on that regard.\" To read full one other Yelp reviewer had this to say:\"Service, ambiance and management were done well. The manager of this place obviously knows what they are doing, and I commend them, because there are so many restaurants that are poorly run.\"
