Food Poisoning!! After watching the staff handle so many things with the same pair of gloves on through the to go window, I should have known better than to eat the food. I ordered the bbq nachos with chicken for the last time, will never go back. Horribly sick afterwards. We should really be given the option of no stars because they certainly don't deserve even one. read more

The staff has not been educated on what they sale. Check ur order before you leave. I got the bbq pizza & spicy wings. Smells & taste great. We are getting it to go. Mask & gloves are a must to serve here so I feel extra safe. The managers are kind. Stop in and see em yall. This bbq is devine definitely a must try. Hello yelp its a new bbq joint in town. Show them some love because they in a hurry to feed us. Very delicious! read more

I don't know if it's just this particular one, but I was not happy with my experience. Firstly, we had to wade through all the people standing at the front door. I guess they were waiting for takeout because the dining room was practically empty. The server seating us ushered us to a booth, and our server came right over to introduce himself. Very pleasant and attentive. We hear screaming and shouting coming from the other side of the seat, and thinking someone is arguing, I don't turn around. But then we realized it was someone watching a horror movie! At full volume! We had to practically yell at each other to have a conversation. The food came out quickly, 1/2 a slab and a chicken sandwich, not pleased at all... the sandwich was dry, basically a piece of chicken breast on a hoagie bun. No sauce of any kind, not even a piece of lettuce! The ribs, although cooked well, were sub-par, in my opinion, to the ribs I've had at the original Commissary. I was very disappointed. Back to the person watching the movie. It turns out it was an employee! I sincerely hope she was on her break! We were the only ones in this part of the restaurant, and again, the place was empty, so why seat us there and isn't there a designated area for employees to take their breaks? When we left, again, there was a congregation of folks at the podium where the seating person stands, this time mostly employees. It was a bottle neck as if you're merging onto 240 from 385. The bill came out to $50.00, and I truly believe I would have been more satisfied had I gone to Pyros or Outback for that amount. Not happy at all. read more

They messed up my order in the drive through during Covid-19. I called up and the manager made it right, as he should have. The food did taste good and the manager and drive thru staff was friendly. I know the commissary brand well and it's performed well over the years so they still get 5 stars from me and that's not easy to do. Good job guys! read more

We ordered pickup yesterday as we were in town. We had the brisket sandwich that didn't have hardly any fat, loved that. The pulled pork sandwiches were tasty and we were given healthy portions. The mac and cheese was not good according to my 15yo. The ribs were tasty but hubby didn't like the membrane still being on the back. The pig chips were fun and tasty with a good dipping sauce. I'd recommend you try this place. read more

I've been to the one in Germantown so I was glad to see this one in Collierville open especially since my go-to place (rhymes with porky's) has gone down hill. Got a full slab and and jumbo pulled pork shoulder sandwich. Sandwich was stacked with meat which was nice to see. The ribs looked really dry, but when I tasted it, my fear quickly dissipated because they were moist inside. Good flavor too. They put a bunch of bbq sauce packets in the drive through bag, which I tried but didn't really care for. I preferred them just plain. read more

Arrived with a large party, we called ahead so, they had two tables for us. The staff said they could combine the two together, but it would be an L shape, which would give them room to serve our meals. The portions were great, not bad for the price. Our waiter was great, and funny. As we joked around with each other, he joined in, after being drawn into our group. What a job in keeping up with who ordered what. At the end of the meal, we asked the waiter if he could take a group photo, not a problem. Everyone more than happy with their meal and grateful for our waiter. read more

Food was fine. Wait staff was slooooooooow. Spent more time waiting at the table than eating. Restroom was jacked up and stayed that way even after letting the staff know. Gross. read more

Good Food / Big Portions / Little bit of a wait with empty tables but the Host was seating aligned with the Wait Staff Coverage, pretty smart. Sides were good also (not the bread roll). Fell for a trick on the kids plate. Thought it was the Worst potato salad ever, till the Wife explained it's Bananas Pudding. read more

This food truck is great! I have tried everything they have and its all good! There is plenty of seating with cover as well. read more

We were in Byhalia, from out of town, for a wedding, and a few of the locals suggested to try Commissary. We had such a great Lunch there with a fantastic waitress, I believe her name was Melissa. She was so sweet and suggested everything we ordered, and it was fantastic. We had the brisket, slaw and deviled egg, barbecue pulled pork, and their mac & cheese. They also have a great selection of local beer on tap. I would highly recommend to stop here for a casual, but extremely filling and satisfying bbq meal. read more

Service was absolutely excellent. Sever was very attentive. No complaints or negativity there. Food was quick to arrive to the table. Taste of food was just okay. Definitely not the best BBQ I have had, and not a BBQ that I need to run back to eat again. Smoke taste in the meat. Not a fan of the taste of the BBQ sauce. read more

I was super unsure about coming here just because if I go get commissary, I go to the Germantown commissary but this location was actually good! I ordered the bbq pork nachos with pig chips instead of tortilla chips. I ask for pig chips just because I think they're a bit crispier and have more flavor than tortilla chips. I like the nachos because they put a lot of meet and cheese on em and there's bbq sauce on the tables if you wanna go a little crazy w the sauce haha. Overall, I think commissary is a good restaurant to satisfy your bbq cravings if you don't wanna drive too far! read more

Collierville Commissary - BBQ nachos with pig chips - Barbeque Near Me - Collierville, Tennessee

Good service and good location. But food was so salty. I dry brine with load of salt when I prepare meat, but this was way too much.

My favorite place for Bar-B-Q when I visit Germantown has always been The Commissary a small place with a large history right in the heart of town. Now they recently have built a new much larger location in the neighboring community of Collierville. This location is probably more than three times bigger than the original location. The food is still amazingly delicious. We went there today for lunch and were not disappointed. I ordered my favorite, The Boss Hog Salad. My wife ordered the Pulled Pork Nachos. Both were large portions pilled with meat and mouth watering good. Our server, James, was outstanding and made sure our food was fixed just the way we wanted it. The menu offers a wide variety of Bar-B-Q selections so you can not go wrong with any of their dishes. read more

Overall, the experience was good. We went to this location because the Germantown one was packed. The service was good and the food was good with the exception of the ribs. They were either old or oversmoked, because they were a little jerky like. read more

This might be a controversial opinion, but I'm pretty sure this is the best BBQ restaurant in Memphis. Notice I didn't say the best BBQ; that honor might go to a different spot, but when you factor in the quality of the sides and desserts and the excellent service, Collierville Commissary blows the other places out of the water. The place looks modern and old-timey at the same time; it's spacious and shiny but has a charm to it. The service is very friendly, attentive, and efficient. I love the jumbo brisket sandwich plate with potato salad, baked beans, and banana pudding for dessert. The smoked wings are also spectacular. read more

Well I went back with some friends and ordered the quarter barbecue chicken dinner. The chicken was so dry. I should have made them take it back. The caramel cake was good though. read more

What was once my favorite bbq restaurant in Memphis has now become mediocre with poor services. After placing a pick up order, I got home to discover the chicken for the Boss salad was missing. I called to let the store know, they said they'd have it ready for me by the time I arrived. They didn't. Not only did I have to make the drive back, I was shocked and dissatisfied with how small of a cup they gave me for what was once a generous salad with a good portion of protein. They didn't offer anything to make up for my troubles. Their sauce has also lost the characteristics flavor it once had to now tasting generic and meh. The ribs no longer fall off the bone and have become rather dry. Save yourself the time and go to any of the other excellent and moderately good places in town. read more

Collierville Commissary - Paltry amount of chicken not worth the drive. - Barbeque Near Me - Collierville, Tennessee

First time at the new location. I got our order "to go". The front staff was very friendly and were very efficient. It wasn't that crowded so I immediately placed my order upon entry. Got my order in about 10-12 minutes. The girls at the counter thoroughly checked my order before bagging (that's a plus). We ordered a salad with smoked chicken and a BBQ plate (comes with 2 sides and bread). All was hot and fresh and delicious. I am so glad to have this in our neighborhood. I will certainly be back. read more

Big group of us was there yesterday for a Bday get together. Service was OK considering size of our group. Food was so so to good, based on what folks got. Brisket - 2 at our table said very dry, it looked & tasted dry, very thin slices. Deviled eggs - they forgot to put relish, salt & pepper in these, very bland. Catfish - quite good. Tamale/chili - tamales were good, very little chili on top. Homemade chips - Excellent. Brunswick stew was the best Brunswick stew I've ever eaten. Banana pudding - pretty good. read more

Incredible, what else can I say but check them out. We eat at the Germantown location occasionally, but with this one being larger, we can meet family here and have a very enjoyable time. read more

This is not the place to go for brisket. Made my second visit hoping it would be better than the first. I wasn't. The brisket seems to be presliced causing it to be tough and chewy. There are better places for Bar-B-Q in the area. I recommend Bain Bar-B-Q. read more

This spot is pretty good. Very good option for kids and if you want a ginormous bbq salad. My husband really enjoyed their ribs. I had their turkey which was good. Clean facility which is always appreciated read more

We've stopped ordering from this location because the front staff is amazingly incompetent. Everytime. But we inadvertently ordered from that location on ChowNow today. I arrive at 5:05, when the order is supposed to be ready. Wait my turn. Tell them my name and that it is Chownow. They look at ALL the bags on the counter tell me it's not ready yet and go on to help other people. I sit there another 15 minutes. I walk up again and said, the order was marked as complete at 5:09. She looks around, looks at the bag next to her (that's been sitting there since I walked in) and says, oh here it is. Okay, things happen. What really got me annoyed is, I muttered under my breath, "you've got to be kidding me". She goes, "well we are kinda busy." I just walked out but I wanted to say, "yeah, I get it, but I waited my turn and then you helped a bunch of other people, you actually looked at the bag 15 minutes ago when I first came in." Being busy has nothing to do with it. All she had to say was, "I'm sorry, I totally missed that one." Being dismissive and rude when you make a mistake is entirely poor service and ruins a customers experience. Every time we go there, they cannot find the order, it is not complete or there is some other problem. To be fair the food is great, just don't order take out from this location read more

WOW! I can't say enough good things about this restaurant, starting with the service. My husband and I had car trouble during a long trip and ended up in Collierville with our dog while the truck was getting serviced. The staff graciously opened their back patio for us so we could sit outside with the pup and enjoy a meal. Beyond that, the food was amazing! My husband is a Texas brisket snob and was raving over the smoked flavor and over the slaw. I personally loved the BBQ sauce over pulled pork and the beans. Plus, the banana pudding was bomb and you must order it even though you're beyond full at the end of your awesome meal. Thank you Commissary for taking us in and making an inconvenience into an opportunity to try new places. read more

Since when does a BBQ place not include slaw on a sandwich. I am so angry that these morons do not know how to make a normal sandwich. Shame on the management. Been going there for over 20 years, but this kind of service is unacceptable. read more

i just remembered , once i was here with my older brother, we had a great time , food was really great but i been over charged around 6 something, still now can't figure out how i was charged over 6 dollars more. read more

Sorry folks, but when you walk into a barbecue joint and there is no one else there even if it is a little early, then turn around and walk straight out the door. The food here is old, dry and not fresh at all. I thought I would try the Boss Hog to give a lot of different items a try so unfortunately I can tell you it is all dry and bland and old. I'm only giving it 2 stars because I don't want to totally insult the staff who are at least living up to their end of the bargain by coming to work. I hear the original Commissary in Germantown is better, but that doesn't say much. As for me, I'm out! read more

Was pretty hungry and decided to grab a brisket sandwhich before a workout. This sandwich was possibly the worst bbq sandwich I've ever had. It had good smoke flavor , but the sandwich had huge strips of fat. I had to take the sandwich apart and pick thru it. Whoever is quality control failed big time. The picture isn't even half of it. Won't be back. read more

I got the pulled pork sandwich with slaw and fries. Slaw and fries were average but BBQ was definitely not up to standards for Memphis level. The meat was dry and I had to drown it in barbecue sauce to add any bit of moisture read more

Food was not good. Meat was dry. Service was slow. Hope to they can get it together and improve.

I will say, maybe I shouldn't visit anywhere to eat late afternoon. That "between lunch and dinner" seems to garner a lesser quality service and food. This was what happened in my first visit here. After all the hype I had heard I was really looking for eating here, and after skipping lunch I arrived at around 4:30pm. Being sat next to the only screaming child in the restaurant didn't help. I ordered the ribs, baked beans and coleslaw. It wasn't long before my food showed. Both the ribs and baked beans were cool. The coleslaw was too. The bread wasn't worth the effort. Really not good. As it took a while before anyone came by to check on me, but by then I'd eaten most of my meal. You get that feeling that the food was the leftovers from lunch that had been set aside for later. It just didn't light my fire. Would I return? yes. Peak time most likely will result in a hotter, fresher tasting experience. read more

Hmmm, this place is worth giving a try but I hesitate to say it's something special. I was in Memphis for three hours today and took a customer to lunch. The service was awesome, attentive and food came out fast. If you come in the parking lot from the mall side, the building isn't super well marked, but my customer knew where he was going. The indoor space was large and empty since we arrived at 1pm on a weekday, yet we were sat next to the kitchen, I never love when that happens. I was a hostess once, no big deal. The nachos. I want to love the nachos. The pork and sauce is good. Even the chips are fine. The nacho cheese is a little concerning. It's industrial nacho cheese. Maybe they should switch to a shredded cheese if they aren't interested in making a homemade queso. I realize they are backyard bbq style and maybe the industrial nacho cheese fits that vibe. There are jalapeños as well, but no other toppings. Maybe give folks the option of adding tomatoes, lettuce, onion, beans, etc so it isn't just a plate of chips with meat and cheese, pictured here. I still ate almost half the plate... Deviled egg was fine, coleslaw was good (not soupy and soggy), beans were pretty good. tasty butter rolls! Hot link was tasty and chopped pork shoulder was also good. I had a little bone in my pork but luckily avoided chomping on it too hard. Banana pudding was awesome. I won't be back here, but I think they are trying hard with the concept and execution so give them a shot! read more

The taste of the food was good, was sat as soon as I walked in 5:40 pm. Place was about half full. It took over an hour to get my meal and two out of the three things I ordered was incorrect. These are things that are made in bulk before you get there. BBQ beans, potato salad, BBQ chicken. How does it take an Hour to put this things on a plate and bring it to the table. Poor management is all I can come up with. The disappointing part is I really wanted this place to be good. read more

Spent 25 minutes in the drive-thru. I found the green beans to be too salty to eat, and the beans too sugary. I was very surprised that my sweet potato fries had cinnamon sugar on them. There was no mention of that on the drive-thru menu. I knew I hadn't been there in a while, is it just me? The chopped pork was pulverized so much I had to add them to the pork and beans just to eat them..there went that $30.00. Very surprised at what I got. read more

Take Out Review Only - First, the BBQ at the Commissary can hold its own with anyone's. This review is directed at the take out service, not the food. I called in an order for 16 people with additional sides. I called it in hours ahead of time for a specific pick up. I arrived five minutes early and although they knew about the order they didn't start putting it together until I was there. I understand they don't want to get stiffed with a large order, but I would've gladly paid in advance if I knew the order would be ready for me to pick up, on time. That being said, the staff was super friendly and the wait was only 25 minutes. read more
