    Came in close to closing and they still welcomed me in and let me get my to go order put together and head on out. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant had a few patrons still dining in but was mostly empty. Very clean and well kept.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The staff was friendly and welcoming and excellent. My food was hot, pretty fresh, and they made sure I had extra sauces to go that I needed. My turkey was a little dry but still had lots of flavor. I would certainly recommend them and come back again when I could.

    Delicious dinner here!! We didn't know what we were in the mood for but happy we stopped here. We got the brisket sandwich combo and plate combo. Pretty pricey for two dinners but the quality was good. Very flavorful and juicy. Plus, they have over 8 different sauces available to jazz anything up more. The music/ambiance was average and pleasant. All in all, a filling dinner with a great vibe. Look forward to stopping again when we're in the area.

    Only been in once but I loved it here! The food was very flavorful! We had a nice time and I would love to go back!

    Rib jerky

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]service was good and as a vet I love the theme and patriotic spirit[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] but the food is just awful. I'm sorry but what kind of a bbq joint serves flavorless ribs so dry I had to use a knife to cut them and with no sauce! None! Sauce needs to cook into meat like ribs. Ribs are not a dang chicken nugget you dip in sauce to eat! this isn't bbq, it's dehydrated on the bone rib jerky with bbq sauce side cups.

    Great food and atmosphere. Being a veteran makes me happy to be here and enjoy the awesome food!

    Baby back ribs and a three meat combo with pulled pork, moist brisket, classic sausage, mac and cheese, and cornbread

    Since all Dickey's Barbecue locations closed in the greater Milwaukee area, I've had a barbecue void that's needed to be filled. Having never been to Mission BBQ before, I decided to try many things to see what I liked most. I ordered the three meat combo with pulled pork, moist brisket, and classic sausage for the meats and mac and cheese for the side along with a piece of cornbread. I also ordered the barbecue shrimp special, two spare ribs, and two baby back ribs. The shrimp was great. Decently sized and I liked the flavor of the specific marinade they used. Ditto for the rub on the spare ribs. It was so good that I didn't need to use barbecue sauce on it. I sampled each of the sauces at my table and I thought the smoky mountain was the best. The brisket and pulled pork were fine. Both meats tasted like they should, but they didn't wow me. I feel like I've had better smoked sausage elsewhere (like at Dickey's **insert sad face emoji**). The cornbread was on the dry side and the mac and cheese wasn't creamy like I'd hoped for. I wasn't a fan of the rub on the baby back ribs. I understand barbecue is expensive, but until you order half of the menu like I did, you might not truly see how quickly the cost adds up. The total for the items listed above was almost $45. For example, a single rib of either kind is around $2.50 each and the barbecue shrimp special, which is literally only eight pieces of shrimp with no sides, was $11. I thought the spare ribs and the shrimp were the best parts of the meal, but they're pricey if you get both and want sides to go with them. Hard to justify that more than once.

    Went here for dinner. Nope. They don't have a couple of the meats. How can a bbq place not have meat. Not going back anytime soon.

    Typical Mission BBQ - brisket was a little dry this time. Hard to find good barbecue. I think they used to be better

They were packed and it was 130 pm no less. Our server went above and beyond for us because the app gives a free dessert when you sign up but for some reason it showed a charge. So after some figuring out ect we got it for free like the app stated. Server was so accommodating and helped us out tremendously because of it. Not many servers do that. The place itself is cute. I was not close to the bar or anything but it sounded like that area is the place to be. Restaurant bathrooms 10/10.

They ask if you want fries with your wings as if it's included but then they add the $6 fries to the $15 boneless wings. Over $20 for bland boneless wings and simple fries is absurd. The ambiance was nice but we wouldn't go back due to the food be so overpriced and the service being sub-par.

I searched on Yelp and came across Parkside 23. It sounded perfect. When we pulled into the parking lot, it was very crowded. I called in to the restaurant to make sure they'd have room for us, and was told that yes, they had just had a cancellation for a table for two, so come on in. We did, and we were seated almost immediately. From the minute we walked in the restaurant, everything was perfect. Hostess Heidi was lovely, our server Sara was amazing, and the food was incredible. My friend had the meatloaf, and crème brûlée for dessert. She said both were great. She's not a drinker, but did have a couple Shirley Temples, which were perfect. I have the pretzel crusted veal with spaetzel. I asked for them to hold the asparagus, which is usually cut up in the spaetzel along with mushrooms and onions, and they did it perfectly. The veal was especially amazing, and the spaetzel was very good, too. I tried the Mr Manhattan, and had another one as my dessert. I'm always delighted when my usual craft cocktail is one of their classics on the menu. It was well-made, if a bit small for the price point. We've already decided that this will be our go-to place for lunch whenever I travel up from Chicago to visit my friend. I'm also making plans to bring my husband up there sometime, because I think he will love it, too. A great find!

I've always loved the shrimp & grits, the flavor was good, but I didn't realize the grits would be a hard brick of polenta. There were exactly 5 shrimp on the plate, they were not large or jumbo, just 5 little shrimp. The flavor was good. I felt for 28.00 I could have had a few more shrimp. Honestly jumbo or colossal would have been a nicer presentation, with so few shrimp. My husband had the filet sliders, he was not pleased, our son's parkside burger was better. Our server was fantastic, polite, cordial, and attentive . The service is always good. It's close to home that's a plus, the quality of the food is not always in agreement with the price. I'll sit at the bar with a cocktail and an appetizer in the future.
