My family and I stopped in at Mission BBQ for dinner, and from the moment we walked in, we were…read morewelcomed like family. The young lady behind the counter was friendly, patient, and handled all of our questions like a true professional. The food was excellent across the board. My daughter ordered the burger, my wife had the salmon and turkey, my son had the ribs, and I went with the Yardbird. Everything was cooked perfectly, and no one had a single complaint. We tried a variety of sides, and the mac and cheese was the clear family favorite. While we were eating, we had a nice conversation with one of the ladies working in the dining room. She surprised us by bringing over two blueberry cobblers on the house, which was incredibly thoughtful. It was honestly the best blueberry cobbler I've ever had. Great food, outstanding service, and a welcoming atmosphere. We will definitely be coming back. On a second visit My son and I stopped in for dinner after our CAP meeting. We placed our order and went to get our drinks. Shortly afterward, our order was ready. We both chose the smoked cheddar burger. I would have liked it to be a little hotter, but it was still very good. Of course, we paired it with fries and mac and cheese. While we were getting our food, I noticed a gentleman who had arrived before us was still waiting. He spoke with the manager and explained that he had already been waiting about 20 minutes and had not been called. The manager immediately apologized and had his order prepared on the spot. He then went a step further and issued the gentleman a full refund. It turns out the gentleman was a U.S. Navy veteran. Respect to Mission BBQ for doing the right thing and putting their customers first. That level of service still matters.

So good I devoured the food before I even took any pictures. I got a brisket sandwich (asked for…read morecold slaw on top) with two sides, mac and cheese and fries and my friend had the pulled pork sandwich with baked beans and green beans. Both came with a drink and everything was hot and delicious. Big portions and everything was seasoned and flavorful. They have a bunch of different sauces to try, including a yummy alamaba white sauce and mustard sauce. Friendly staff and clean/inviting restaurant. We tried the banana pudding which was also very good. Will definitely be back next time I'm in Ocala. Yum yum!

Today July 12, 2026 at approximately 12:17 pm after our church service a group of eight people went…read moreto Pig and Cattle located at 6105 SW St. Rd. 200 Ocala 34476 for lunch. We witnessed a couple sitting at a table near us who had a dog in a baby carriage type thing. They were feeding the dog with a restaurant fork and also giving some food out of a restaurant bowl. I pointed this out to our server Debbie who told us they are not allowed to ask any questions as service dogs are allowed. When we pointed out to her that they were feeding the dog with their fork and bowl as well as letting the dogs head on/near the table and then ask her what type of service could the dog provide sitting in the carriage she went and talked to them. Debbie came back and told us the couple had a government issued license indicating the dog is a service dog. Again, she said there was nothing she could do. I suggested she talk with her Manager as service dog or not the dog can not provide service sitting in the carriage and should not be feed at the table with their fork and bowls. Debbie stated the couple told her the dog had recently had surgery. The couple left before we did and as they passed by us the dog was very active in the carriage and did not appear to be feeling bad. After they left another person cleared off the table and then wiped it down with a cloth. We watched her take the cloth put it a container which appeared to have water/or some cleaning material in it. Later another person used that cloth on another table. Not all of us ate lunch as we decided we did not want to eat food in a place that: 1. allowed dogs sitting in a carriage. 2. allow dogs to be feed with their fork and bowl. 3. allow dogs to have their head at/near the table top. 4. use a cloth to clean a table where a dog has been and then reuse the cloth on another table. Not only did they lose income today but the likelihood of me returning to Pig and Cattle is very slim. I have always enjoyed Pig and Cattle and personally I think you prices are reasonable and food is very good. Our after Church group -- generally 8-12 people--have about four place we rotate going to. The next time Pig and Cattle comes up in the rotation it is very unlikely my wife and I will go. Afterall, how can we be sure another dog was not at our table or a cloth used to clean the table had not been used to clean a dog table? How can we be sure that the silverware we are using has not been used to feed a dog? How can we be sure that the bowl/plate we we are served with has not been used to feed a dog? As lost customer, George

We went there for the second time today. The first time I went I had beef brisket it was…read morefantastic. This time my wife had it and she declared it fantastic too. Moist and juicy goodness. This time I tried the pork rib ends with Mac and cheese and baked beans. Another home run. Those delicious beans are in a savory sauce with some succulent bits of meat in them. While we were eating the owner asked if we had tried his mustard bbq sauce. We hadn't, so he gave us some and suggested we mix a small amount of it into some of his red sauce. I'll be doing that from now on. We were not looking forward to eating in the 93° heat, but you know, under his shade tarps with a gentle breeze it wasn't too bad. You should treat yourself to Ocala's BEST Q!

We haven't been to this barbecue place in years and now that we returned we are kicking ourselves…read morefor waiting so long! This restaurant has been here forever, but gets really great inspections from the health department despite being an older building. We ordered to-go and ate in the parking lot. What a feast! We ordered their current special: a full slab on payback ribs and 2 sides for a mere $14.99. That was to take home, but we sampled it in the car and no silverware was needed. These ribs were fall-off-the-bone tender and juicy and thick. It was hard to remember that these were for later, we wanted them all now! Our sides were fries and baked beans. The beans were good, but the fries were nothing special. My husband got a pulled pork sandwich with green beans and hasn't stopped raving about the green beans the entire time he was eating. He said the sandwich was delicious, too! I like meat cooked well-done, so I ordered a burnt ends sandwich and coleslaw. What a happy surprise that the meat was thinly sliced instead of the usual chunks served at other places! Every single piece of meat was well-cooked, tasty, and not at all fatty or greasy. I'm a fan! The coleslaw was delicious, too! Our to-go ordered was served with a smile, plenty of napkins and silverware and ketchup and salt and pepper and barbecue sauce. I found a new restaurant to crave (again)!

After our outdoor concert in the park at the Riley center, Ocala…read more We decided on Big Rascal BBQ, at NW Blitchton Rd. The waitress responded promptly with our drinks (No Diet Coke) only Coke Zero...No problem for me, but Dawn dislikes the Coke and Pepsi zero products. The Restaurant is nice, clean, spacious and well lighted (a plus for me) The waitstaff, and servers were cordial and professional. Not a big crowd, but it was nice with football on the t.v. and a little country music playing at a nice level. My 1/2 lb burger was cooked and seasoned well, it arrived good and hot too. The cold slaw was good, and tasty. Dawn had the 4 seasons salad, and she said it was good and the grilled chicken was palatable. Overall we had a good meal and decent experience. We would definitely come back again. Jewelz, our server made several trips to our table, and kept our glasses full.

This place had the best bbq I have ever had in Florida. Apparently they had new owners that brought this place in 2020 and brought it back to its former glory after it was shut down. We ordered the bbq pork sandwich, some brisket, baked beans, and finished it off with cobbler. THIS IS THE BEST BBQ I HAE EVER HAD IN THE STAE IF FLORIDA! everything was cooked to perfection. The baked beans were loaded with meats. The staff was as friendly as can be and seemed proud of the food they were serving. Definitely give this place a try!

Mmmmmm.....ribs ribs ribs.....unlimited ribs!…read more We all ordered the unlimited ribs deal for $23.99. St Louis style with choice of sweet & smokey or house dry-rubbed. Along with two sides and cornbread. You can change up the type for each additional serving. So freaking good. Nice portions. My inner fatty was happy! The ribs were tender, tasty, with little fat, and prepared perfectly. A selection of different BBQ sauces on the table to try. Cole slaw and a baked sweet potato with cinnamon butter to put on it. After four rounds of ribs I was properly stuffed. Yum! Terrific service here, as she checked on us accordingly, brought our food over quickly, and made sure we had our unlimited ribs refills. Large and clean restaurant, along with clean bathrooms too. Our server also offered us drink refills in to-go cups as we were leaving. That's a nice perk.
