    First time at mission Bbq because it seems my husband is in search of a great bbq restaurant. Parking was good. We went to the counter to order. The menu is on the wall behind the counter. I felt rushed and didn't fully understand it. I ordered the bbq shrimp then he hands me a big cup and asked me what sides I wanted. I told him I normally drink water and he said it comes with it. He also said that the sides came with it too. Same with my husband and son. I paid the bill and we found a table. They brought our food when it was ready. I'm looking at the receipt then the menu board in total confusion. Anyway I have figured it out. Nothing comes with the meats that you order. You can add XL and get sides and a drink. The employee behind the counter was not helpful at all even after I explained that it was our first time there. Honestly I felt deceived. The food was okay but nothing to get excited about. This hasn't ended the search for that great bbq restaurant.

    Brisket sandwich with fries and Maggie's Mac & Cheese
    Jacqui C.

    It's been a while since we've had BBQ and I found Mission BBQ during a random online search, which had opened just recently. It sits right on the corner of Stephanie and Warm Springs, making it incredibly easy to access. I wanted to do dine in originally, but I was so tired that night that I chose takeout instead. We both ordered sandwiches for ourselves. I got the pulled chicken sandwich and my LTP got the brisket sandwich with fries on the side. As an extra side, we both got Maggie's mac and cheese. We got there about an hour before closing, where it was still a little busy and people were still coming in. But it didn't take too long for our food to come out. The smell of the food was so good that we immediately knew that we were going to enjoy it even before getting home. They have their own truck sitting outside in the parking lot, like those trucks you see in the military, but I'm not sure if it's drivable or not. My pulled chicken sandwich was tender and a decent size. If I had added BBQ sauce to it, it would've been extra tasty but also a little messy. My LTP said that he enjoyed his brisket sandwich, and I'm not sure who Maggie is, but her mac and cheese was delicious and flavorful. It really fit in quite well with both of our sandwiches. Check out Mission BBQ if you're looking for some quality flavored sandwiches among other BBQ items!

    I finally chose to accept it. Mission BBQ is a chain that took over the Henderson spot once occupied by Sweet Tomatoes. Easily seen on the southwest corner of Stephanie and Warm Springs, this spot does seem to give some legitimacy to Henderson's quiet BBQ scene. Order at the counter, and go with a friend or two if you wanna try all the proteins. My friend and I each went with a 3 Meat Sampler ($21.29) and got almost everything. You can actually order sides a la carte, but if you're going for a drink (I loved making an Arnold Palmer with their tea and lemonade available in bubblers), then an XL Combo ($6.00) or XXL Combo ($8.75) are cost-effective. The smoked meats range from really good to pulled pork. Skip that pulled pork if you can. It's a little tough, kinda dry, and lacks fat. My ranking of the rest of what I tried are, best to not as great, moist brisket, then surprisingly pulled chicken, then lean brisket, turkey, and jalapeño & cheese sausage. The pulled chicken and turkey are both surprisingly moist, so they both work. The moist brisket is definitely much more moist than the dry, which is passable if you haven't had really great smoked brisket. The sausage is juicy but I'm a little biased against spicy things. The smoke is a little on the subtle side overall but is definitely present. Playing with sauce-meat combos or multiple sauces is the real minigame of the meal. Most of the sauces are at the tables but some are only on the condiment "toolbox" between the two fountains and bubblers. Just try them all and you'll probably find some that are best suited for either your overall taste or each individual meat; my favorites ended up being KC Classic, Georgian Mustard (in a glass bottle), and South Carolina Zing (on the toolbox). We tried a few sides between the two of us. The included corn bread wasn't at the peak of ideal moisture content but worked for me. The Cold Slaw sat somewhere between creamy and vinegary, and I thought it was fine but not very impressive. The Kickin' Collard Greens were lighter than I expected and had a nice twist with the presence of tomato pieces. The Maggie's Mac-N-Cheese was cheesy and rich. And the Cherry Cheesecake, a seasonal sweet that does qualify as a side, feels oddly deconstructed then reconstructed, with some sorta whipped body sandwiched between graham cracker crumble and maraschino cherries. It still tasted solid enough though. I can see myself coming back to Mission BBQ on occasion if the BBQ bug bites me. It's solid enough for Henderson, the music was tolerable, and the decor celebrating military and first responders is probably a plus or neutral.

    Brisket with Mac and cheese, fries and cornbread
    Angela C.

    Food was great! Very generous portions. It also came out quick. The place is packed and I really like how they dedicate everything to military/police and service members in general, kinda cool. They have lots of sauce options on the tables. Chicken was tender which is good cuz it can easily be dried out sometimes. I love my fries and theirs are delicious. There's lots of space inside and big booths and tables. Great location if you're looking to grab bbq for lunch or dinner!

    Brisket- good fat cap and a nice bark
    R. L.

    I've traveled all over the country having barbecue and this place did a pretty darn good job. The brisket had a good bark and a nice fat cap, it had good flavor, didn't see the smoke ring that I would usually expect to see but I got there about 15 minutes before close so for being the end of the day I was impressed. The sausage was a bit boring. The pulled pork had good flavor, and they have six different sauces you can try.

    Delicious beef jerky
    Shatilla P.

    Nice interior. The food is kinda pricey and some items are kinda salty. The service is very good though. They also have some great beef jerky. I suggest giving it a try. The green beans were not delicious and the bacon tasted old and not fresh. Also the cornbread was quite dry. Overall this place is okay.

    Cheramie T.

    I love the aesthetics of this place. They honor our first responders and vets and even give them a free slice of cherry cheesecake for their service. We were greeted the moment we hit the door and service was swift and the staff were friendly! The decor is all first responder based which is very unique. We ordered the 10 bones ribs with Mac and cheese, baked beans, and cornbread. The ribs were extra tender and falling off the bone. TENDERNISM! The Mac and cheese was good and it had pieces of brisket in it. The baked beans aren't really sweet but give me pork and bean vibes, but they have a variety of bbq sauces to choose from. All in all, the food was awesome and we will be back.

    I travel for work and come here at least 3 times a month. Great staff!! Great food! Get away from the strip and come get some awesome food for a fraction of the cost .

    Moist Brisket
    Christina F.

    This is a very cool place that everyone is sleeping on! My husband took me here for lunch one day and let me tell you there's nothing that I haven't tried here that I do not like! For the gluten intolerant, all the meats are GF, just beware of the sauces. There are many sides to choose from and bottled drinks. You can even try multiple meats in one plate. My favorite so far is the brisket

    And these are the second three. The honey hot is probably my favorite!
    Dan L.

    I have driven up and down Stephanie Street for some time and noticed this location, but never had the opportunity to stop in. I always thought it had a cool exterior vibe to it, and was super excited to go to lunch there The place has a great military theme, including a hardcore military smoker out front! Front! You can't miss it. And if you do, you aren't paying attention. Inside the restaurant is appointed with all kinds of military and police patches, memorabilia and such. You stand in line, look at the menu, and then order and then when they call your name you can pick up your food. I opted for the brisket sandwich.. because I like brisket, and I like sandwiches! I ordered mine with a side of fries, well done. The sandwich came up early, and was sitting there. Waiting for the well-done fries. Now I would have given this place five stars, but the meat on my sandwich was cold. That may have been my fault for ordering the fries. Fries well done, but in hindsight I think that they would have made the sandwich when the fries were first pulled. Regardless, the meat was really really good! Make sure you order it moist, so you get a little bit of extra fat on the sandwich. It makes a difference okay. You definitely have choices when it comes to sauces. I was a fan of the Texas honey hot, not super spicy but has a bit of a zing to it. For their perfectly cooked meat. The fries were amazing, perfectly crisp just the way I like them. Them. I am looking forward to coming back here again and trying some of the meat platters. Platters. I didn't have dessert, as the only two options were a brownie and a apple cobbler. I may try the brownie on my next visit. Bottom line? If you're looking for good barbecue this is the place! If you ask for your fries, well done. I suggest telling them to wait until the fries are done before making your plate. Other than that, this place is stellar!

    Lisa S.

    Excellent! Came here for lunch during a work meeting and it was delicious! Super cool vibe inside. The line was long around lunch time but they move the line so fast and the food is ready in minutes. I ordered the brisket, the cheesy potato's and the slaw. Amazing quality flavors. It's so far from my home, but will def come back when im in the area. They should open a location in summerlin, we don't have anything like it!

    Gluten free menu
    Helen O.

    Had moist brisket and gluten free fries with sweet tea! We will be back. My husband loved his turkey and pulled pork with cornbread. Lots of sauces. I went to restroom.... As I came out I heard the Natl Anthem.... (I could hear it faintly in the restroom )I walked out to the whole restaurant including both employees and patrons standing up with their hands on their hearts.... I stood there a moment confused before putting my hand on my heart as the National Anthem played and the TV's showing flying flags. After it was done everyone just sat back down and continued... I found table, I was like what was that.... My husband said they made an Announcement that everyday at noon they play and honor the national Anthem. I then realized the decor honored the military and first responders... Very cool experience...

    Chopped Brisket Sandwich  and Brisket and sausage
    Jacquelyn R.

    Brisket chopped sandwich with Mac n cheese and BBQ beans. Tried every sauces available and the one I liked most was ALL of them! The greeters were awesome. The explanations of different sauces was awesome. The Alabama white sauce complimented the brisket in my opinion better than the other 6 sauces. All staff working were awesome and very helpful. The music in the background was very tolerable and no need to scream over the music. One thing I missed most was Coca-Cola.....

    Same as before.

This tiny Greek restaurant was awesome - Huge salads, giant gyros and overly stuffed wraps ordered with always friendly familiar Employees in a comfy setting. I feel all the above has changed dramatically over the past few years (Most places have, honestly). During my last several visits, I noticed all new faces behind the counter each time. While I realize this is a chain restaurant, it never felt that way. When this location opened, they employed 2 guys that stayed for years. They always made you feel right at home and made everyone want to come back for more. I thought they were the owners for several years. The menu offers a great variety of Greek favorites so there's always something for everyone in your group. Whether you're in the mood for wraps, bowls, or classic entrées. My go-to order is the Greek salad with added salmon, which continues to be my favorite item. It's fresh, flavorful, and perfectly satisfying every time. The Great Greek remains a reliable spot for quality Greek food in Henderson. Although, with so many great Greek options in town, it's really about what set you apart from all the rest...?

    FOOD WITH BEAUTY! A MUST TRY--FLOWER CHILD!…read more Easter Sunday couldn't think of a better place to go! This place caught my eye a while back, but I've never tried it. It's located in The District at Green Valley Ranch off the 215! You can't miss this adorably stylish building! Entered into this serene garden like place that had me looking everywhere. It was very engaging. You order your food inside the front door entrance where the menu is above at a counter. The lady taking the order was ever so helpful and patient. She recommended some really amazing dishes to try and while you're looking at the menu there, there are homemade muffins and cookies at your fingertips. Your senses start to get flooded with goodness here. Just past the order counter is a gorgeous open kitchen where you see chef's intensely preparing the food. Everything smells amazing here and the plates coming off the food line look so good. OMG. Finally picked out something to eat and went and picked out a table. It's self seating and within minutes, the food is already out to the table served by very charming team members. I was out with my daughter so we both picked something that was preferable to our taste. Her dish, the Mediterranean Chicken was pretty detailed and very colorful. She said the food was outstanding. She had never tried anything with so much variety. I was a little bit more on the safe side and picked a simple salad with turkey and avocado, and some extras. The vinaigrette dressing was so unique and delicious alone. The salad was very fulfilling. The atmosphere was so relaxing in a space with sound where you can have a nice conversation. Loved the vaulted ceilings. Dining room and patio was about half full mid afternoon and everyone looked so happy. As if they were all regulars plotted to be in this scene I was in. By the way, the patio looks so pretty straight out of a catalog. Upon leaving, the same people that greeted us a warm welcome also gave us a grateful goodbye. Very nice people here! Leaving the restaurant took some more pictures of the front entrance parking lot where there was this smoking hot Corvette parked in front. Too good not to capture. So excited to go back here the restaurant overall was so accommodating and friendly. Loved everything about it:)

We also had the queso. We enjoyed everything. We chose this place because my sister and her son and vegan. Fast forward to today. She offered to bring me something cause she was getting a pick up order. I wanted to try the avocado Caesar salad with steak. I wanted to split this into 2 meals. Half of the lettuce is not fresh at all. I would assume they would cut their lettuce. But it must be bagged. And who made this salad and saw these pieces and figured they were ok? For a $20 I should not have to pick out old pieces. Is there no quality control? I'm at home too, babysitting, so it's not like I'm there and request it to be remade. What a waste of money.

The falafel came up first, and it was very crunchy. The inside, however, was perfectly soft and the flavor was on point.
