Mission Bbq - Memphis belle is my favorite - Barbeque Near Me - Orange, Connecticut

I'm a big fan of BBQ. This place is really good, especially for a chain restaurant. They have a full selection of various meats along with many different types of sauces. The staff here are exceedingly friendly and helpful, probably the best I have seen. It's casual as you would expect for this type of establishment. The prices are a bit on the higher side but the food is really good. The pulled pork for example is not fatty like many places are. If you like BBQ, I'd strongly recommend checking this place out. Parking is plentiful. read more

First time at mission BBQ and I can not complain! I'm not going to lie, I was a bit hesitant about eating bbq because I'm not much of a fan (don't judge me! ) but the food was actually really good! I got the salmon and Mac and cheese and it was watering! My bf and I agreed that the salmon was one of the best we've had in a while! The manager, Tanner, was also very nice and stopped by to greet us and gave me a welcome treat for stopping in! I would highly recommend stopping by :) read more

Literally just left couldn't wait to say... Angel and Luciano Were amazing! EVERYONE was amazing!!! Had a small mix up and they addressed it immediately and beyond delicately. Super filling, satisfied and definitely returning asap! Thanks to Mission staff for being so friendly and welcoming read more

Not a fan. I have been smoking brisket and meats for years....and have lived all over BBQ America.. Their brisket was too salty and dried out...same for pulled chicken. Potato salad was weird...mustardy...actually threw it out!...coleslaw ok. Corn muffins so so. How do you screw up corn bread? As a veteran, I am sad to leave this review, but it is an honest review...Sad because they do so much for Veteran charities...Disappointed read more

Overall decent food, the highlight was the smoked rib eye. Great pricing and even better hospitality. The staff was amazingly friendly and gave my daughter a free brownie. Very thoughtful and definitely made her smile. A choice of six different styles of sauce for your bbq, all were delicious. The fries were crunchy and well seasoned. The brisket was tender. Overall decent smoke flavor. read more

Mission Bbq - Barbeque Near Me - Orange, Connecticut

lets break this down into a few things........... Staff - all the staff was welcoming and introduced themselves to us and made sure we were good with what we were ordering The Meats - i went for the brisket and it was tender and moist with a good amount of fat. By the color you could tell it was cooked too quick with more heat and less smoke and that came through in the flavor The Sauces - 6 sauces at the table and none with Vinegar. Tried them all but found the Bay-B-Que to be the winner as it had some good spice to it that added much needed flavor to the meat read more

I have been eyeing Mission BBQ since it first opened and feel so happy to have finally been able to stop in. The displays of patriotism on the walls energize the dining area, along with the upbeat country music in the background. We were bummed that they had run out of pulled pork and coleslaw prior to our arrival. None of us were disappointed with our entrees and all felt the serving sizes were reflective of their price. We did feel as though our entrees cooled down rather quickly. The staff was friendly, served us promptly, and maintained an impeccably clean dining area. Between the delicious food and homage to our American roots, Mission BBQ gave us multiple reasons to want to repay them another visit. read more

I came in to Missions BBQ (Orange location) this past week and I was very surprised and pleased at how well managed and courteous the team was. I would definitely this restaurant if you like authentic barbeque food. Tanner and Meg were super and went above and beyond to make our visit very memorable. Will definitely visit again! ~ Michael & Sharon read more

The closest place I've been to outside of Texas that has anything resembling real Texas BBQ. They have the sauce right, the smoking right, and the design/vibe right. The staff was friendly (like Texas). So glad we found it! read more

I guess if I had one word to sum up Mission BBQ would be Meh. Recently picked up a to go order. Missing items and one order ended up being incorrect. Food was also cold like it was sitting for a long time. Service was also slow despite many employees behind the counter. Food was wayyyyy over seasoned. One of my dining companions had corn which they said was too spicy. I like spicy food and tried the corn and it was very peppery and could see it being too much for people who aren't into spicy food. Tupelo honey sauce was disappointing but I did enjoy the Alabama white sauce a lot. Not sure we will be back. Plenty of other better bbq places in the state. read more

I have had missions food at events and take out that others have brought to work etc but I went there last night with my family. The service was fantastic. The staff was friendly and helpful explaining how the system worked there. Its kind of cafeteria like. The food came out quickly. There was 6 of us in total so there was many trays of food. It usually self pick up but the staff jumped right in and helped get it all to the table. It was all hot and fresh. During dinner we were offered complementary brownies and samples of other menu items. It was a fun experience. The store was clean and comfortable and plenty of open tables so we were not rushed at all. read more

I was inching to try this new BBQ place for a while, Today I unfortunately had to try the food, and as eye opening as it was, the beginning was already a nightmare; I had no clue what to expect when entering the restaurant and wasnt expecting a cafeteria experience. Me and my party stood by the front waiting for someone to tell us how to order, as theirs no indication that its a cafeteria style restaurant with none of the workers filling new customers in on how it works and how to order We ordered the brisket, and Smoked chicken, and while we were ordering we were accidentally charged twice, and after the error was corrected got our food immediately. There isn't any waiter to tell you where to sit, and it's a free for all, if it's packed, enjoy standing around waiting for a table. And finally the food, the saving grace that I regrettably thought would save the confusing experience, the brisket was gummy and unseasoned, the smoke chicken, while it was technically edible since it was smoked it was over salted and somehow underdone as the skin was too elastic to even eat, the pink meat itself isn't very appetizing either. At least the Mac and cheese wasn't terrible though. We took our concerns with the staff and they turned us around saying the chicken is fine, not even offering any substitutions for the dissatisfaction. Ultimately the prices were way to high for the proportions, the staff aren't informative and doesn't help people when they aren't expecting a cafeteria style restaurant. They're aren't any signs that suggest it either. A greeter would definitely benefit. I wouldn't suggest going to this place if your looking for quality food, and a helpful staff. read more

We ordered a bunch of a food for a party of 9 to go. Everyone raved about the food. The brisket was excellent. Very tender and flavorful. I asked for all "moist". Cole slaw, baked beans and corn bread were all excellent as well. Everyone in my family had positive things to say about everything. Which is VERY rare in my family. Pulled pork was solid too. I go all the time with a smaller group and have always had a good experience. Prices are reasonable and portion sizes are good. The staff is excellent. Not only are my orders routinely correct but they are very friendly and helpful. read more

I do not know how they do it, but EVERY employee here is AMAZING! They are the friendliest, most knowledgeable and efficient people. The offerings are amazing, perfectly cooked and complimented by 6 amazing sauces. I live 40 mins away and the drive is absolutely worth it! Try this place! read more

Mission BBQ is great place for a solid meal. The staff was enthusiastic and helpful. The restaurant has a US military theme. Their BBQ will scratch your itch but is by no means high level BBQ. This is more on par with Dickey's or other chain BBQ places. They have an assortment of sauces to try ranging from KC, TX, Memphis style etc. Solid lunch spot. Definitely worth a try. read more

Mission Bbq - Brisket, sausage, P. pork mac & cheese and GREAT cornbread !! - Barbeque Near Me - Orange, Connecticut

Mission BBQ recently opened in my area and I've seen a tremendous amount of traffic around the restaurant. Today I decided to try it for myself. I ordered several items to taste. The order was for take out and was handled very quickly. First, I must begin by stating that the customer service is superb! The cashiers and the individuals arranging your order are polite, courteous and professional. It's refreshing to see this. They also work very quickly. Even though the restaurant is very busy they move quickly and the wait time is negligible. Very impressed here. The food is outstanding. The meats are all very good. I ordered the ribs, the brisket, the Turkey and the pulled pork. Everything was outstanding and perfectly cooked. The sides were also very good. The only complaint I have is the Mac and Cheese is on the drier side. I prefer my Mac and Cheese more creamy but the taste was still very good. The beans are very tasty as is the corn bread. Overall I am very impressed with Mission BBQ and will be visiting often. read more

First have to say that love their mission and what they stand for. Wish I could say the same for the food. I will admit to being a bit of a bbq snob as I've had some of the best bbq this country has to offer in places such as Texas, St. Louis, Memphis etc. This was far from high caliber bbq. The sausage was really good. But not because of the smoke (don't think it was smoked) but because was good sausage. Brisket was ok to decent. Pulled pork - dry as heck and porky tasting and had no smoke flavor or bark. Beans were decent. Cole slaw was not and cornbread was bleh. The capper were the ribs. Some of the worst ever seen! Porky tasting. No smoke taste or bark at all. Fell off bone and dry which means they were overcooked. read more

Mission Bbq - Ribs---never seen anything like it. Looks like was on a grill and not a smoker. Sorry but those are bad - Barbeque Near Me - Orange, Connecticut

We been ordering takeout but my husband been coming since the opening, I think it's about time to give a review on this New establishment As of now I been exploring there Menu, pulled pork, brisket, sausage, turkey,and. sandwiches have so much flavor, very good meat quality , they cook it just right, but the chicken is a little dry not a Fan, beans is good but it taste like a CAN BEANS I got from COSCO is not as fresh as I think( just my opinion) Mac and cheese is really delicious, corn bread is also dry. My 1st time I been inside some of the server it's scared me, they pops in nowhere, the place is over crowded ( which I understand it's New) but we still need 6feet distancing, people's waiting there food alongside with people ordering. And leaning to the table where I was eating. I like to eat and explore any food, I recommend this place to experience and share your experience to all Yelper. Enjoy!! read more

I was excited to try Mission BBQ and it didn't disappoint. My boyfriend and I shared the 3 meat sampler so that we could try as much as possible. We ordered the brisket, pulled pork and classic sausage. We also added on 5 of the baby back ribs. Everything was very good but my favorite was the pulled pork. The collard greens had great flavor and the mac n cheese was delicious! I liked how they had 6 different sauces on the table so that you had the chance to try them all. My only word of warning is if you are dining in. It was a Friday night when we went and it was very busy! Tables were hard to come by with COVID restrictions still in place. I highly recommend after your order, if you have someone that can go grab a table then do it! read more

I was actually pleasantly surprised by this chain restaurant in terms of food taste. We ordered the sampler with two sides of Mac and cheese, sausage and pulled pork. The food was well seasoned but further improved by the BBQ sauces on the table when you sit. I did find some of the meat to be more room temp than hot but the flavor made up for that. The Mac and cheese was super tasty. In terms of cost, I feel like this is relatively affordable especially if you share a sampler like we did. The cornbread was moist and delicious. I love that they have fun bottle vintage sodas as well as support veterans. The peach cobbler was full of cinnamon but I wanted more cakey parts in there. Staff was incredibly welcoming and friendly and we will most likely be back. read more

This is my first ever yelp review. I just had to let ya'll know how great of an experience I had. I had been craving some BBQ food because I never get invited to the cookout... And one of my friends mentioned this place. First and foremost when I walked into the restaurant I was greeted with nothing but good vibes. Shout out to all the folks over there in Orange holding it down. I did online pick up and ordered a pulled pork sandwich combo with the slaw on top... gotta get the slaw on top. My sides were baked beans and mac n cheese. My food was ready to go almost exactly when I arrived but here is the thing... I was expecting to just go grab a bag and be on my way BUT no! The girl behind the food stand or what ever presented my tray and showed me my order to make sure everything was there. That is the first time I've ever experienced that at a restaurant. The girl (I wish I knew her name because she was so nice) asked if I wanted any sauces and I asked for recommendations because it was my first time... WHEN I TOLD HER IT WAS MY FIRST TIME SHE GAVE ME A FREE SANDWICH COUPON!!!! I was GEEKED! I got my sauces...shout out to the BAY B QUE (BUSSSSSSIN) I went to go get my drink and I couldn't find the tops... a different employee ESCORTED me to the tops 10/10 would go back again AND you already KNOW I spun the block to get my free sandwich a few days later and my experiences was even better read more

What can I say? My mom and I love this place! We've had it twice in the past month (the first time was our first time ever). We've had the chopped brisket sandwich, traditional pulled pork sandwich, mac & cheese, BBQ baked beans, and potato salad. All fantastic!!! All the sauces are very good, but I think we prefer the Memphis Belle, Texas Twang, and Bay-B-Que--kinda hard to know the full pecking order yet, but we enjoyed all the sauces. And the to-go service has been great. The cashiers/order takers and the folks who hand me the food have been very nice and friendly. Highly recommend!! read more

Ok, Mission just opened in Orange, even though I've been to the chain before, we wanted to give this one a try. First off, the decor of this place is a nod to our military and first responders. It's a great concept, but understand their true mission is to get you in and get you out so they may turnover tables. This is a no frills BBQ place. Plastic forks and spoons, no plates, quick turnaround. BBQ cooks for hours, so all of this food is pre cooked, so it's high quality fast food. I say this with the utmost respect. The food come out fast, but the quality of the product is excellent. True slow cooked tender BBQ. We had the beef brisket and baby back ribs. The Food was tender,moist and delicious. Slow cooked with delicious bark and you know it's smoked because you can see the smoke ring. For sides we had fries, Mac and cheese, baked beans and green beans. The fries were fresh cut and the baked beans had pieces of brisket in it. All of the sides were excellent. Great place to bring the family, guys night, or just to stop in for a casual lunch. read more

I attended yesterday for the first weekend opening Place was super crowded they have ample parking and it was very nice to see they honor veterans by having special places for them to park as well The employees and servers all had a great attitude no matter how packed they were and everyone was super kind no fighting or pushing This is more of a fast food bbq place place your order And pick it up at counter I think I may have enjoyed food a bit more by staying to eat but due to crowd we had to get out The meats are seasoned well and it's my first time to have smoked turkey which was very nice and tender Portions all around are a bit small Mac and cheese was Only ok corn bread was nice and soft and good flavor Green beans were Flavorful and had bacon We will be back once the newness goes away They do take credit card and there is lot of parking read more

At first, this restaurant gives you a funny fast food vibe but then you meet the staff and you try the food, you change your mind. Very tasty bbq and the prices were good!

If you go there make sure you ask for the "special" sauce! read more

Clean, delicious, and friendly! We were on a nearby Costco run and decided to stop here for dinner. Portions were a good size and the sauces available was a little bit overwhelming. My husband got the brisket which I should've gotten instead of the prime rib. Best eaten at the restaurant in one of the booths, as my prime rib ended up being well done and kept cooking in the container by the time I got to eat it. We ended up getting take out since the kiddo was into eating something else but we will definitely be back when we're at Costco in the area again. read more

On a positive note: the staff is lovely. They're very helpful and friendly. Food is ok. Not great. Ambiance is casual, but there is lame military and cop propaganda everywhere. I ate there with a Navy veteran who even said it was a bit much. Probably wouldn't bother eating here again. read more

Eh, it's a 3 at best. All the meat had an odd smell/taste not like fresh BBQ. The menu board is deceiving as they up charge for certain meats in the "pick 3" option but they don't mention that or have it written. Super pricey for what you actually get. Will never return - one and done. read more

My wife was glad to see this on what's in the area I currently at.i love the food and was better than 20$ rest stop McDonald's

Excellent service. Great food. The people there are wonderful to the community especially the military and first responders

The absolute BEST experience at this restaurant!!! We got the moist brisket and it was the BEST meat we've ever eaten. It was juicy, tasty, and delicious. I could not stop eating it!!! The employees were so helpful for our first time here! Daniella walked us through the whole menu and made sure I was helped the whole time. The restaurant is clean, calm, and relaxing from our road trip. I would recommend going everyday if you live close by, if not, stop in, it will be worth your time read more

Casual dining at its best! Four of us had drinks at home and decided on Mission BBQ for dinner. The staff could not be friendlier or more helpful!Our group enjoyed lean brisket, pulled pork, pulled chicken, ribs, and turkey, all delicious. Love that you get to top with their various bbq sauces at your table and experiment to find your favorite. Cornbread, beans, cheesy potatoes, and fresh cut fries all excellent. Would have been nice to have a local beer with our meals but wonderful staff often offered us refills on soft drinks. They also bring menu samples around every 30 minutes or so. Definitely recommend Mission BBQ and we'll be back! read more

Shoutout to this Mission BBQ man, I have never left a restauraunt feeling so satisfied before, the staff may be the nicest and friendliest staff in the continental united states. Shoutout to the girl who took me and my friends orders and also shoutout the guy (idk his name) for giving us some sauce recommendations and recommending the south carolina zing sauce to us and also somehow called out one of us on rolling our shorts up idk how he did that. Brisket was nice and tender and the mac and cheese was gas beyond belief, we also all got brownies which were top tier. Overall great restauraunt with a great atmosphere and some good people workin there. all love Mission BBQ. read more
