    The service was very fast and everyone was very friendly. The restaurant is very neat with decor. My husband and I split the 3 meat meal. I like that the sauces are on the table and you have a good selection. We had the turkey,sausage,and bbq. All was good. Baked beans,fries,and cornbread was also good. Thank you for serving hot food. There is nothing worse that getting cold food. Would recommend and would return if in the area.

    Every time I travel down south I look for Mission BBQ. *MB, why aren't you in New York?? Driving by, there was big sign: Smoked Ribeye Now a Ribeye is an attention getter. I drove in and was greeted by a friendly counter person. One smoked Ribeye please with a sweet tea ( I'm down south ya know ) and Cole slaw. I'm a Veteran, is there a discount? There isn't but here's extra corn bread. And thank you for your service! The smoked Ribeye was most excellent. Man... Mission BBQ just makes a righteous Q. Smoked meats, various sauces, patriotic staff, Merica!

    I love Mission BBQ! We got a catering for my wedding reception and it was a huge hit for the guests. It was affordable and service was fantastic. The manager was friendly and we had a couple of emails and meeting for the event in advance which was nice and smooth. After my successful event with Mission BBQ, I came back for dinner and it was so good! All staff are kind and food is amazing.

    I finally was able to visit Mission BBQ in Westminster Maryland on Father's Day, 2025. Many friends have told me I must try it as it is very good. Well, they weren't joking. When we first walked in the door we were welcomed by a very friendly staff. The ambiance of Mission BBQ is very good. We both had a pulled pork sandwich. He opted for the cole slaw and I got the potato salad. Very very good. There was a nice guy named Boston who came around to see if everything was ok and struck up a conversation with him. He told me that he has worked at many places but loves his job here. A well treated employee is a happy employee so I believe they must be food to their people. I highly recommend Mission BBQ if you love good food, good service, and a welcoming atmosphere.

    We popped in for lunch after a shopping excursion. I ordered the brisket meal with sides- side salad and fries and hu y had the pick three meat sample (chicken, pork, brisket) with sides, pork & beans and fries. The only negative the fries were overly salty. The drinks were very good. I think they have the best iced sweet and unsweetened tea I had more room for the salad and was full after a few bites. So we took our food home for leftovers. Which was just as good.

    Nice place. The employees were super nice too. Food was hot and fresh. Prices were reasonable for barbeque. Would visit again!

    It's a chain, but it's surprisingly good. The food comes out too quick to be made-to-order. That being said, I do believe it is cooked in large batches the same day. It tastes very good. I tried the lean brisket, the cheddar jalapeño sausage, and the pulled pork. All were excellent and I'd highly recommend to anyone. I cleaned the plate along with their Mac n' cheese and slaw. Service staff is friendly and knowledgeable. We came back again for lunch before we left.

    Great promotions for veterans!

    I used to be a competitive BBQ cook. I can still make my smokers sing. As a result I tend to be…read moreharsh when evaluating retail BBQ joints. I've eaten at this Black Hog location (and their ones in downtown Frederick and Urbana) many times. All produce reasonable 'que - not award winning, but consistent and decent quality. Today's choice was a brisket sandwich. The meat was nicely cooked, and the bark looked nice, but it was underseasoned. As a result, it had no punch on the first bite or any that followed. I generally don't like to put sauce on brisket. The bark and the meat should speak for themselves, but in this case, I decided to try the three sauces that came with it: vinegar (Really? For brisket?), a sweet Memphis style, and a thicker Kansas City style. The latter two were too sweet for brisket, and the former was, well, an abomination. IMHO. The sandwich came with one side. I got potato salad, which also needed some pickle pieces, onions, paprika, cayenne - anything that added punch. Not the worst I've had in town, but not the best. (Yeah, yeah, I know it's subjective, but I'll stack my potato salad against anyone's. My Aunt Helen taught me well). Oh, I'll be back, don't you worry. Black Hog serves a consistent, decent product that is the best available in Frederick It's just not close to what I can eat from any of the countless hole-in-the-wall joints pretty much anywhere in Texas. But it's a much shorter drive...

    Really delicious BBQ in Frederick MD! We sat at the (small) bar and the 2 bartenders were awesome,…read moresuper friendly, and attentive. For a small restaurant they had a full bar with a decent bourbon and whiskey selection. Their menu is flexible, allowing options for various combos - so you can try whatever you want. I ordered a brisket sandwich with a side of burnt ends. Burnt ends are my favorite and I was SLIGHTLY disappointed because they weren't "crispy" like I like, but the flavor was great. The price was in line with other BBQ joints, so no surprises there. We'll definitely be back.

It's one of their favorite places…read more The lighting/natural light from the windows, together with the decor, give the space a really cool, clean vibe. We ordered a bit of everything from the standard and kids' menus. Our favorites were the pulled pork tacos, the flounder sandwich (my personal favorite), and the from-scratch mac and cheese. I would eat a pint of that mac and cheese if I could. A note, however, 1/3 of the kids found the addition of cracked pepper in the mac and cheese "too spicy." The staff was attentive and checked in frequently.

    Lovely location tucked away in Lake Whittier area of Yellow Springs. We arrived for a late dinner…read more(around 7pm) and it was pretty empty inside. We opted to sit outside since we had our dog with us. The server was very friendly, with great service and they are very dog friendly and had water bowls outside for them. I am from Eastern NC, so I have a pretty good idea of bbq and BC staples. I decided to try the flounder rather than the bbq this time. The founder was disappointing. It was a bit on the bland side and the batter is a little confusing. I was expecting a cornmeal style batter or similar, but got something different. The fish itself had potential to be very good. The beans also left a lot to be desired, just lacked flavor and taste. The business looks like they do a lot of catering as opposed to dining (possible a lot of to go orders, too).

We would consider coming back, hopefully when the restaurant is better staffed and able to handle the crowd more smoothly.

    I'm becoming a kpot conosour as this is my third location visiting. This is a great location (well…read morethey all are!) what make this one different is that they have a cooler of tea drinks included in the buffet. They were delicious peach, mango and leeyche flavored tea. The service was great and our servicer explained everything well. A few times we received wrong items but they were super nice about it. This location doesn't have ice cream out but you can get some from your server after your meal. All of the veggies and meats are fresh and well prepared.

It runs about $40 per person, which feels fair for all-you-can-eat and the overall experience. For the quality, service, and fun factor, it's well worth it. Definitely recommend checking it out.

They have a Game of Thrones/Dungeons and Dragon kind of theme going on, with cocktails named after the different houses and a page where you can roll for your drink.

The flight was ok, I find when you make all the things nothing really stands out, but the Everyday whiskey was a nice smooth sip which I very much enjoyed. For dinner I had the smoked brisket which was tasty, but the sides (garlic mashed potatoes, carrots and asparagus) were fire. Service was great, they weren't very busy so it was easy to get a table and get served. Overall I would definitely come back to roll for a random cocktail and enjoy more flights of their other offerings!
