Mission BBQ is a very cool, modern space that salutes the hard working first responders and military members. Instead of sports memorabilia adorning the walls, here they use police, fireman, and military uniforms. Way cool atmosphere. They also play old country music which really appeals to me. The counter staff was extremely friendly and helpful. I found it a very refreshing change from what I have found at other faster food establishments. For this reason alone, it makes me want to be a repeat visitor. Who does not like to feel welcomed and appreciated? Now for the food. I got some great samples of brisket, macaroni with cheese and chicken to try. They encourage you to try samples. We ordered brisket and pork sandwiches (huge sandwiches) and a meat sampler (chicken, pork and brisket) with side dishes to go. When asked what sauce I liked and since I did not know, they put a sampler pack of every one they make in our bags. Side dishes ordered were macaroni and cheese, baked beans plus cornbread. Loved the cheesy homemade mac and the baked beans were very good as well. Very thick and slow cooked, a little sweet though. Did not try the corn bread, but was told it was sweet but the real stuff. (not the corn flavored flour version at other places) I thought the prices were very reasonable for the quality and quantity. Lastly, the appreciation of military, police and fire is not just shown by decorations. They support the USO and offer appreciation nights with free food. read more

My sister took us here for lunch..she had heard it was good but that's it. We walked in not expecting much...but were blown away. The brisket was incredible..best I have ever had...and I have had a lot of it! Nice crust outside and moist and tasty inside. The collards were pretty good..not as good as Jim n Nick's bbq but good. They also have a nice array of different bbq sauces to pick from from sweet to savory. The best part...at noon everything in the place stopped and we all stood up for the playing if the national anthem! Loved it...this chain was started by notary vets and is dedicated to the military and first responders....nicely done! read more

The food was good, but the service was OUTSTANDING! This was my family's first visit to Mission BBQ and definitely not my last. We were very pleased with our visit. We entered the restaurant on a Saturday evening, as we stood back reviewing the overhead menu, one of the cashier's approached us from behind the counter and proceeded to walk us through the menu options and even offered samples, which we declined, but what a nice gesture. We proceeded to place our order, provided our name, retrieved beverages from the self service station and just as we were about to sit down, our food was ready! I ordered the smoked turkey combo with 2 sides (collard greens and corn on the cob), cornbread was included. The turkey was perfectly seasoned, nice carved, and generously portioned. The greens were on-point, nicely seasoned, as well. The corn was just ok, nothing to get excited about, but it was fresh. The cornbread was tasty too! My husband had the brisket sandwich with slaw and baked beans and he enjoyed it very much. My daughter and son-in-law had pulled pork sandwiches with slaw and fresh cut fries, and my grandson had a sandwich and fries from the kids menu. There was a selection of 6 sauces on each table. We each had a different favorite! During our meal, several employees, came by to check on us. What a great experience. I will absolutely return! read more

Hands down the best BBQ I've had in a long time and I live in the south. The service at this restaurant was first class. I highly recommend this place if you are traveling in Cleveland area. read more

Yum. read more

Mission BBQ - Pull pork with mac and cheese and baked beans - Barbeque Near Me - Parma, Ohio

I've been there a few times and have never been disappointed. The menu is limited but everything is delicious. They occasionally have specials like prime rib sandwiches, drool. Fries are delicious I would recommend it for a good quality of lunch prices are reasonable. read more

Food was fine but it was the delivery service that disappointed me. It came fast but they forgot my large upgraded lemonade I ordered and was charged for. We told the driver and he said he would come back later with it but he never did. I am 9 months pregnant and have been craving a fun drink besides water while I am stuck at home. I wanted to call but I also didn't want to demand someone drive just a drink over to me. read more

I love this place! Great food and location. Well worth the price and plenty of food. Always have leftovers!

Honestly don't know where to begin . This place is emotional . The food is excellent . Friendly staff . Drove down from LakeWood and I'll be back . I'm gonna tell every bbq fan I know about this place . Merica !!!!!! read more

I am so blown away by Mission BBQ. Normally I am not a five star kind of guy, but this food really won me over... My wife and I arrived last Saturday around noon to a half-full dining room. You place your order at the counter and have a seat. They call your name when your food is ready. My wife ordered the "Chicken - Half a yard bird", fries, and a tea. I had the pulled chicken, cheesy potatoes, and mac and cheese. Seriously, this is one of the best sandwiches I have had anywhere, period. The bun was perfection as well as the chicken. The sandwich does not come with sauce and you choose, and apply, one of six sauces that are available at the table. I tried all six sauces and wasn't over the moon about any of them, but a couple were pretty good (I think we both went with the Memphis Belle). The cheesy potatoes were on another level - I had no idea cheesy potatoes could be that good. The mac and cheese was nearly perfect as well. I would change NOTHING about my meal. My wife wasn't quite as crazy about her half chicken as she felt it was a little fatty. She did like her fries, cornbread, and tea. She is so hooked on the BBQ Chicken at our local Cheddar's that I think that has permanently skewed her opinion of all other half-chickens. The dining area is clean, very well tended to, and is tastefully decorated in various military items. The manager, I presume, approached us and explained their smoking process as well as their support of the USO. He was very proud of the food and business, and definitely should be. They have really built something special there. Total bill was $23.77 and was worth every dime and then some. Yelpers, check this place out! read more

Amazing food... reminds me of the south! The chopped brisket sandwich is my favorite!!!!!

Couldn't express my love for this place in words. From the great atmosphere to the delicious food. Meat is tender and moist. Cornbread is warm and soft. Beers are cold. And everything at a reasonable price. Grab some buddies with an appetite and don't forget the Alabama white bbq sauce on everything read more

Super friendly people, brisket so good. Go here and get some BBQ, you will like eating food. read more

Mission BBQ - That brisket! - Barbeque Near Me - Parma, Ohio

It's all delicious. The baby backs, the pulled pork, the brisket all amazing. The sauces are great too, just do not miss the Georgia mustard. read more

Their brisket is the best by far we have ever had. They offer a more marbled and a leaner choice. The sides are all great, and pulled pork and ribs are excellent too. Pleasantly surprised and we are glad to have a great BBQ spot. Decor is sort of cafeteria style, but the flavor of the food can't be beat. Easy access location and their service is with a smile. read more

Very good bbq. And I ma proud to support a company that so proudly supports our heros!

Love this place! I've been here multiple times and I've never been disappointed. I got catering from them today and they were prompt, the food was piping hot and delicious as always! I think I converted my entire office to making Mission BBQ their go-to BBQ stop. Get the moist brisket and mac and cheese!! read more

The staff here is so so kind! They go out of their way to make sure you enjoy your visit. When you're ordering your food they ask if you want to sample anything. If you get Togo they package it up very nice for you and give you all the sauce you want! Also their food is the best! The Mac and cheese is delicious, green beans are a little salty but good, and the pulled pork sandwich is my favorite! read more

Great BBQ. Not a big menu but what they have is great. Everyone was so helpful. It was our first time and they took their time explaining the menu. One of they things that stands out, for me anyway, is that they have a military theme in the restaurant. Not over powering but a definite military theme. In the parking area they have a spot just for military people. They also make it a point of hiring veterans. read more

Awesome! Great service, friendly workers and delicious! My wife got ribs and brisket and I tried sausage and brisket sandwich. Cornbread, coleslaw and fries are good. Sauces are finger licking good. Not a fan of the bay-b-que sauce but the rest are nice. Love the Smokey mountain sauce. read more

Mission BBQ - Barbeque Near Me - Parma, Ohio

Stopped in a Sunday evening to get a sampling of BBQ to enjoy the next couple of days (I ate this for 3 days!). The parking lot was packed, but my wait was super short. I think the longest part was me deciding what to get. Young lady at the register was friendly and patient. The woman who gave me my order was friendly and opened up all of the boxes to explain what they were and make sure everything was in there. She also gave me samples of all of their sauces. -Brisket Sandwich $8.29. Lots of meat! I'd guess half a pound? Meat was chopped up, moist and tender, kinda made me think I was eating pot roast, but it was really good. I would get this again! -Pulled Pork Pick Two Meat Sampler $8.99. Good. Moist. 1/4lbs or 4oz -Pulled Chicken Pick Two Meat Sampler $8.99. Good. Moist. 1/4lbs or 4oz -Baby Back Ribs $2.39 each bone. Ordered two bones and received a bigger portion size than expected. Meat was moist and definitely fell off the bone, but to me that is over cooked. Rib meat should easily pull off the bone, not fall into pieces as you try to pick up a rib. Also, to me this tasted extremely salty. Like I was shocked at how salty the meat was. -Spare Ribs $2.19 each bone. Ordered two bones and received a bigger portion size than expected. Meat was firmer than the baby back ribs and while still a little salty, not as as bad as the baby backs. -Baked Beans with Brisket $2.04. A-Okay, but the first night I munched on this it tasted really fatty to me. Next day it was fine so IDK what was up with that. -Coleslaw $1.89. Much needed light and refreshing side. Nothing special, but satisfying. -Cheesy Potatoes $2.14. Just added some black pepper and it was freaking delicious! Very hearty so it helped to split it and not eat it all in one sitting. -Mac & Cheese $2.09. Good, but does lean towards the mac & cheese you find in a crockpot at a family get together. Again, not bad at all, not dried out or anything, I just prefer a creamy cheese sauce. Still a nice comfort food side. -Cornbread 79¢. Satisfying portion size. Texture is perfect, moist with a couple whole kernels inside. I just like my cornbread with a little more buttery/sweet flavor. Could picture breaking this up over a bowl of chili and enjoying. -Sauces. They have 6 flavors and you can find, sweet, spicy, smokey, vinegary varieties. I personally could not pick one that really did it for my taste buds, but none of them were bad at all. I think I was just overwhelmed, might be better to get just two at time. Very nice to find they don't skimp on sides and that the sizes are about a cup. Ordered one slice of cornbread, but got three in my order so I was a little confused if cornbread came with any of the meals or they just threw extras in there. Pleasantly surprised by the meat portions and that all of the meat was moist. Also think the pricing is reasonable and appropriate. For just opening I think they have done a good job (probably due to their experience since this is a chain). All in all, I think this is a solid chain place, really enjoyed some things and thought other things were just okay. I would like to check them out again, give things a second shot. read more

I've gone to Mission many times since it opened and whenever I go, I always have fast and friendly service. Never had any issues.

Awesome food awesome service! Very professional!! And I'm a stickler about professionalism lol my wife will attest to that. Its top priority to me and Mission bbq has surpaced any other bbq joint in the east in my book. Well done and the brisquit was killer. We will be back for sure!! read more

As soon as we got there we got amazing service! Staff was super nice and everyone looked like they were happy to be there which is unusual to see with some restaurants. My husband and I ordered the brisket plate and had the option to do it moist or dry and we both chose moist. The plate automatically comes with cornbread which isn't the best thing I've ever had. The cornbread was different by having actually pieces of corn inside but it was so dry. You can definitely taste the smoked flavor in the brisket but it was a bit bland so you can add whatever BBQ sauce you'd please. I loved the KC sauce because it had nice spicy kick to it. I didn't care much for the other 5 sauces but that is my own preference. I honestly don't think the pricing was too bad compared to what I would usually spend on a BBQ dinner down south. Will definitely try this place again to see how consistent their food is since they just opened recently. read more

Mission BBQ - Barbeque Near Me - Parma, Ohio

My family and I were headed to Tmobile yesterday evening which is located right next to this restaurant. As soon as we stepped out the car we were greeted by the wonderful aromas coming from this place. We decided when we were done at T-Mobile we were going to stop here for dinner. Atmosphere is great! Kind of loud but family friendly. You seat yourself but there is a couple of employees that walk around asking if you need anything like condiments, a To Go box, extra sauce, etc. My husband went up to the counter to order our food while I went to grab the last booth that was open. I had the pulled pork sandwich with a side of Grandmas Mashed Sweet Potatoes. Everything was delicious!! The side mash was a great portion size and the pork tasted great with the tradition BBQ sauce although you can use any sauce you want which are available to you right at your table. My son had pulled pork (not a sandwich) and fries. My husband had baby back ribs with fries and a side of Mac and Cheese. The Mac and cheese definitely lived up to all the hype. Fries were great and tasted so fresh and my husband devoured the ribs! All the food plus fountain drinks and one beer came out to about $53 which I think was fair for the quality (I believe everything is fresh, never frozen), atmosphere, quick service and quantity of food. We will definitely be back!! read more

First time visitor. Got take out. Baby back ribs. Meat fell off the bone.. but it was pretty salty. Too salty for my wife. Didn't get 2 of the sides that I ordered. Bummer. Probably will go back and give it another shot. read more

Definitely worth the trip to Parma. Food is AMAZING and will give Famous Dave's a run for their money. Everyone is so personable and friendly, and welcomes you as soon as you walk in the room. Would highly recommend to anyone who is feeling some BBQ. read more

My 84 year old grandfather was wearing his honor guard hat tonight and the girl who was working the register noticed, didn't say anything when we were ordering, personally brought his tray out, thanked him for his service, and gave him a complimentary apple cobbler dessert. The customer service here is incredible. I will always support a business that cares so much about veterans. It doesn't hurt that the BBQ is so damn good too. Mission continues to deliver. Thank you for another outing that exceeded expectations. read more

My boss and I stopped for lunch. Super Duper yummy. Delicious bar b que. Best baked beans. The atmosphere is great.

Meh, it's fine but they don't have online ordering and it's not spectacular by any means. Average BBQ

First time we ate there, my son and I, it was great. Second time the food was cold. Most likely cooked and left out when it was not prime time. But the cornbread kicks ass. They should be prepared to for different peak times and the issue wouldn't be an issue. Not going back. read more

I found this place randomly one day on my way home from work. I stopped in and picked up carry out and was so surprised the food was delicious. The brisket was so tender and really enjoyed the potatoes which I later learned were seasonal and would be repacked by potato salad in the spring. I truly enjoyed the experience and love the mission of this restaurant. I took my husband there the following week. He is a firefighter and served in the Army and he really enjoyed how he was treated by the manager of the establishment. We will definitely return. read more
