    Moist brisket with mac and cheese and corn bread.
    Randy G.

    Very cool place. Photos of Veterans, military, firefighters, police, honoring their service on the walls all around the restaurant. Very respectfully displayed. Food was great! We shared a two meat platter with brisket, pulled pork, mac and cheese, and cornbread. It was all fantastic! Brisket and pulled pork were both moist and flavorful. I like my bbq with no sauce. To me, that's telling how good the meat is. If you use sauce, you just covers up the taste of the meat. Now this is just my opinion. My wife on the other hand likes a little sauce. There are six different sauce options on the table. I didn't taste any of them. My wife liked the Smoky Mountain sauce. She said it was sweet with a hint of smoke. Mission BBQ in Kenosha, Wisconsin is really good and I feel you get plenty of food for your money. We'll definitely be back.

    Ribs, smoky mountain bbq sauce, cornbread and coleslaw.

    The service is fast, pricing is good especially for what you're getting. I only like my ribs falling off the bone and they always are here! The coleslaw is good with a decent crunch. Cornbread is a little dry but that happens in large batches. I always take it home to eat because I like to wear gloves lol

    Pulled chicken sandwich

    My family and I love this place! The food is delicious too but, I can't tell you how much I appreciate all the other aspects. Kenosha establishments have gone down hill a lot. Mission BBQ has proven that excellent service and cleanliness still matters. It's clean, the gentleman Pete, is on top of it and keeps everything in the dining area looking great. The front counter people are awesome. Thank you for being amazing! 10/10 recommend!

    Food is good, but the portions are pitiful. I will never, ever again pay $16 for pulled chicken? I don't even think a child could eat that portion and not still feel hungry. Staff was great. Very friendly, and attentive. I know it's not their fault the prices are so steep, but I will find places elsewhere to get bbq for less.

    We came in super hungry and I really, really wanted to love the place. Very patriotic decor in and out. Self service. But the food was just ok: Brisket wet - somewhat bland. I didn't know what the carb count was in all the 6 different sauces on the table so I skipped them. Hubby said they were ok. Now here was something special - their NC vinegar was da bomb! This saved the meal. Baby back ribs 5 - we got 6 hehe thanks. Opposite of the brisket, this was too salty. I wish they could find a happy medium. Cornbread - yummy, though since I'm on keto, I only had 2 bites. Overall, ok. Wouldn't go out of my way to revisit.

    Pulled pork, and pick 2: brisket & ribs

    I am a HUGE BBQ fan, but I do not have the patience to do it myself. I have driven past Mission BBQ a few times, so I finally decided to do a take-out order to sample a bunch of stuff to see what they are all about. What I ordered: The pulled pork plate with a side of coleslaw and brisket baked beans - that plate also comes with complimentary corn bread. Honestly, not the best pulled pork I've ever had. I honestly prefer my own, but it may have been a little dry since it was take out as opposed to fresh. The cornbread is nothing too special, but good. Coleslaw was fine. The first bite of the baked beans was good, but there was far too much BBQ sauce and not nearly enough brisket in them. What my boyfriend ordered: MUCH BETTER. He got the pick 2 meats with the brisket (yummy) and the ribs (HOLY FALL OF THE BONE, MOIST, MAGICAL GOODNESS!) He also got the mac & cheese (did NOT disappoint) and the seasonal mashed potatoes (also a nice change of pace to the typical french fry option.) They also have their own BBQ sauces, and the to go order came with a little cup and stickers to describe their different sauces. In order of how good they were: 1. unlabeled, but their hot BBQ sauce - THE BEST. 2. Memphis Belle - couldn't really put a finger on it, but classic and delicious. 3. Tupelo Honey Hot - fun to have a sweet one in there that's balanced with the spiciness. 4. Smoky Mountain - not bad, but WAYYY to smoky - really only needed 1 drop, otherwise it's overwhelming. 5. Texas Twang - it's just A1 steak sauce flavored. Dessert: We also ordered their peach cobbler which I feel like is hard to find in the midwest, so it was a nice treat. Definitely met standards from times I've eaten peach cobbler in Atlanta, Georgia. There was enough food that we had leftovers. We decided to use our own fresh buns to make mixed meat sandwiches with BBQ sauce and coleslaw on top the next day, and they honestly were almost better that way and reheated/served piping hot! I would go there again and dine in for their ribs alone!

    Meat sampler with brisket and turkey
    Emily G.

    I don't give 1 star reviews often, but this restaurant really missed the mark. How it has such good reviews? It must be rigged or I had an oddly bad experience. We were greeted by friendly employees. When they found out it was our first time dining at Mission, one employee went into a great deal of detail on how each dish is made, making it sound like a local mom and pop restaurant. We later found out it is a chain with 150+ locations. To say the food was underwhelming would be an understatement. My boyfriend ordered a meat sampler and the portion size looked very small. The platter was basically empty. His turkey looked very dry, only salvageable by dousing it in barbecue sauces. I ordered my brisket lean, but it was beyond dry and flavorless. Some pieces were even hard. The only saving grace was the assortment of 7 barbecue sauces to try. Although they looked like they had been sitting out all day and not refreshed so a bit unsanitary. The mac and cheese was yet again underwhelming. The sauce was thin and had a weird flavor profile, and was not particularly cheesy. The cornbread was basic. To top it off, Diet Coke came out of the fountain machine as mainly seltzer water. At almost $40 for 2 people to dine in, I would NOT recommend coming here.

    This is the awesome gentleman who helped us and checked on our dining experience as well as kept the place clean.

    I've been to my fair share of BBQ places across the nation and this one stood out. We had the 3 meat sampler and had the Brisket, pulled pork, and jalapeño sausage. For sides we had the Cheesy mashed potato's, Mac n cheese, baked beans, and green beans. Let me tell you, the meat was so tender and flavorful even without the assortment of 6 sauces. The sides were some of the best I think I've ever had. The green beans were my absolute favorite. We were greeted by an amazing staff who was super friendly and helpful. Ashley and Douglas made our experience a memorable one with how kind they were. You can tell these people take pride in where they work. On top of everything else, this place was CLEAN! One of my biggest pet peeves for restaurants/establishments and they did awesome. Well deserving of 5 stars. I'll make sure to visit this place and bring others in the future.

    Appetizers served by Ashley and her incredible crew.

    After last night's birthday meal my lovely wife took me to, I have made a decision…read more If I gave in to my extremely worst impulses about someone I absolutely despise, I'd do it in a state where there's a death penalty. I'd waive all appeals, request an expedite on me getting permanently factory reset, and ask for my last meal to be the Steak Fajitas from Iguana Wana Mexican Grill and Tequila Bar. Of the hundreds of Mexican Restaurants I have been to in my 52 years, the BEST Steak Fajitas are at this restaurant. The seasoning was absolute perfection. The meat was as tender as could be. The sizzle never seemed to end. The Mexican rice was also the best I have ever had. The beans were great as was the guacamole. All their salsas were perfect. The margarita was to die for! I need to go knock over a bank or something so I could go eat there everyday. I think I'm in love. . Oh, and the server was super helpful, friendly and professional.

    This cannot be called Mexican food! Perhaps fusion, tex-mex or other but not authentic Mexican…read more I visited the restaurant again after years since they opened hoping for improvement or change. There has been no improvement, and the latter was for the worst. The first sign was how empty it was on a Friday evening. Let's start with our service. Awkward, silent, miserable and a bad way to start dinner. Our server looked like she did not want be there. She was silently awkward, noticeably miserable and never once went beyond 2-3 words at a time. We ordered mojitos and margaritas, all made of mostly fruit puree. Realizing it was a mistake coming here, we ordered entrees to get the evening over with. Our food was the biggest disappointment. The quesabirria tacos were bland, lacked salt and the consomé was nothing but red broth. The food truck in town that specializes in this would have tasted better. The chicken dish was the opposite. Nothing but salt in a cream sauce so you couldn't really taste anything but salt. Hoping to be full of something I tried the rice. It looked like it had been partially ground and tasted like cumin out of a jar. We left hungry, extremely disappointed and upset we paid for such service and "food". We will not be returning.
