MISSION BBQ in North Carolina

"We set out to find a place to cater our wedding. We found this place by chance and it was a blessing. The service was amazing and the food was delicious. I would highly recommend for catering or just a place to grab a bite. Every one that worked there was kind and bubbly. The brisket and turkey are spot on. I do not even like turkey but they have some good turkey. Thankyou, Mission BBQ!"

"Reminiscent of TN bbq and brisket for flavor! The food was so delicious here, my husband and I went back for seconds later in the day to take home. They have two options for brisket, moist or lean. Moist is fattier but the lean was so juicy I did not even need sauce. So nice to find a place that does not think dry brisket is a good thing. Bbq was tasty but had some gristle. Sides were out of this world with flavor! Cole slaw, beans, collard greens, and green beans. Good variety of sauces. Cobbler was quite yummy. Service was excellent! Everyone was really friendly and helpful. Restaurant was really clean. Only reason I am not leaving 5 stars is that the portions are really small on the meat for the price."

"So I really liked Mission, but there are a few things to consider. The sides are very small and missing some staples. The brisket has a good taste, but its still tough....sadly nowhere out here can do good brisket. Out of all places around here its still the better brisket I have tried so far. Pulled pork is good, but there is other places that do it better (skyline). Where this place shines is the atmosphere and the people. Everyone is incredibly nice and helpful. I enjoyed chatting with them while waiting for the food."

"Amazing and friendly staff, the atmosphere was lovely and very welcoming. The food was delicious! Asked for an extra piece of cornbread st the end and they offered me some for free! The sauces collection is Fire and definitely worth trying! The brisket sandwich was out of this world."

"UPDATE: A regional manager reached out to me and made things right. I've since been to other locations and they were quite good. I would have no issues recommending Mission BBQ at this point. Heard a lot about this place and finally got to try them. And it was.....OK. Staff and cashier was helpful with recommendations and were friendly. I got the 3 meat plate of moist brisket, turkey and ribs. The brisket was indeed moist but also a bit fatty. The ribs looked a bit pale but the meat was moist and falling off the bone. The turkey was the best with having decent density, taste and flavor. 3 meat plate, no drinks was $21. Was expecting more from all I've heard. Overall I give this place a B."

"Went here and there were four in our party. BBQ was really really good and brisket was a little dry. Sauce selection was excellent. One person said slaw was a bit tasteless. Shrimp was terrific, seasoned well and came with a dipping sauce too. All other sides were top notch...collards, Mac and cheese, and corn casserole (cornbread and corn casserole may be better name). Cornbread was sweet and tasty too. Order at counter...great service. We sat outside and an employee checked on us twice to see if we needed everything. Decor top notch. Also had fountain drinks and sweet tea, unsweet tea, and lemonade. Big fan of the ice chest of sodas."

"As a visitor from up north my experience was nothing short of exceptional! The food was absolutely amazing bursting with rich, smoky flavors that left us craving more. A special shoutout to our server, Janice with genuine Southern hospitality that made us feel right at home, she went above and beyond to ensure our dining experience was perfect. Her friendly demeanor, attentiveness, and knowledge of the menu were impressive. She made sure to check on us frequently to make sure we had everything we needed. If you're looking for mouth-watering barbecue and top-notch service, Mission Barbecue is the place to go. We can't wait to come back for more! Thank you"

"Editing my origin review. After a previous negative experience, I was contacted by their director of operations, who wanted feedback on my experience. He answered my concerns with sincerity and had said training would be in place and to give them another chance. I went to this location and it was a completely different experience. The atmosphere was great and welcoming on a Saturday afternoon. The brisket was delicious, moist and not over seasoned, sides were also very satisfying. Crew members were very friendly. I commend them for leading by example. Great job mission bbq :)"
