    Fabulous decor and vibe! Delicious food! The brisket and bbq beans were on point! The banana pudding as legit! Our server was friendly and helpful.

    Our bill

    While visiting my twin sister in Evansville, Indiana, she suggested we have lunch at Mission BBQ at 1530 N Green River Road. Mission BBQ is unique in its mission and as they state on their website under "Our Story", " We do what we do for the love of our soldiers, firefighters, police officers, first responders--all our loved ones in service." The key word that came to mind when I thought of writing this review was "options". As you'll see from the photos they have multiple options for pretty much everything: the BBQ meats or fish served as entrees or sandwiches, with lots of choices for meats, sides, salads and drinks but only one dessert. They also have an ice-filled cooler with lots of choice vintage soft drinks. We both had the pulled pork sandwich with sides of mac 'n' cheese, baked beans, green beans, French fries and cornbread . I had a vanilla Frostie root beer and she had water. The pork was tender and chewy in the best way and the sides were tasty; the green beans had onion and bacon and were served hot and the baked beans had pieces of meat that seemed like beef to me. Each table has a "6-pack" carton of BBQ sauces named from various cities known for their styles of sauce, more or less spicy, with vinegar or tomato and other flavors based on that city. We tried all of them several times and most had a flavor we liked. I look forward to trying Mission BBQ again the next time I'm in Evansville and highly recommend it to anyone who lives there or is passing through. If you like BBQ, don't hesitate to support Mission BBQ and their "mission" to support the military and first responders like our fire and police departments.

    Stopped by for a late lunch takeout and wanted to get enough for dinner, too. Ordered the pick two meets of pork and brisket. Comes with a slice of cornbread. Got mac n cheese, then green beans on adovce of the friendly staff. Food was ready quickly. Then also decided to get another side of the baked beans, too. Also got 4 assorted bbq sauces to try (I like sauce.) Meat was tender and everything was tasty. #yum #ReviewsByRL

    As we entered, we were greeted by a nice helpful young man. We let him know that it was our first time to visit and he was so happy to explain the menu to us. Well my husband enjoyed the traditional sausage with Mac and cheese and green beans and I enjoyed the sliced brisket sandwich with Mac and cheese and potato salad. Everything was exceptional. The potato salad had minimal ingredients including some onion and Mayo and seasoning. No celery or pickles or eggs. Scrumptious. The green beans were seasoned perfectly with bits of real bacon and the Mac and cheese....did I say five cheese Mac and cheese? Oh yes! The meats were out of this world. I loved the juicy sliced brisket and my husband really really enjoyed the traditional sausage. Oh...and the different sauces (6 different ones) were just as delicious as everything else. We tried the Smoky Mountain Sauce and the Old Bays Sauce. Ummmmm....yeah delicious as well. If you haven't been to Mission BBQ, next time you are in Evansville, it is a must!

    We stumbled across this restaurant on our trip to Evansville to visit the LST, and the Cross Eyed…read moreCricket was nearby. Trusting their website advice to overlook the appearance of their restaurant, which is located in an older house in a more industrial area, we decided to have dinner in a non traditional restaurant, and we were very glad that we did. The service was excellent, so friendly and efficient that we could have been in a 5 star restaurant. But you wouldn't find food that good in most fancy restaurants. We started with a plate of fried green tomatoes, and while no one is ever going to fix them as well as Daddy did in his iron skillet, they provided a dip to join them that was quite good... certainly, not one that Daddy ever thought of! Auntie had the pulled pork dinner with mashed potatoes and gravy & apple sauce. She ordered the appetizer brussell sprouts, and they were amazing! Hubby went with one of his favorite meals: fried catfish; yes, he almost inhaled it! As always, his German fried potatoes were great, and what can you really say about cottage cheese? It was there, and he ate it I went for the kubuki steak with fried cabbage & onions & mushrooms. The fried rice was delicious, but the ribeye took "delicious" to a whole new level! Oh! My goodness! It practically melted in my mouth! And the cabbage!! Wonderful! The "50's" down-home furnishings were likely family hand-me-downs & yard-sale finds, not particularly pretty but serviceable and authentic. Everything was very clean, even the too-small restroom, which reminded me of the first one my grandmother ever had in her house. Again, it was clean, but there was a leak on the restroom floor, something that can easily be repaired. If you are looking for upscale decor, don't come here. But if you want terrific food, friendly service, and a delightful experience, be sure to visit the Cross Eyed Cricket; it's wonderful! I understand there's a sister Cross Eyed Cricket in a three-story building right in the middle of the charming downtown. Their food might be almost as good as we had, but I think the lost atmosphere will detract from the visit. It's your call!

    Horrible.... had a nasty small when we walked in. should have left. chicken and dumplings out of…read morea can....nasty. I sent it back they still charged me!
