Mission BBQ continues to be a great place to visit, especially because it offers comfortable indoor seating--a welcome change from the many BBQ spots that operate out of food trucks. At this stage in life, having a place where I can sit down indoors really matters. If there are other BBQ restaurants with this kind of setup, I'd appreciate recommendations. We tried the pulled pork sandwich and the brisket platter, and both were outstanding. The service was incredibly fast; our meals arrived in less than two minutes, quicker than most fast‑food chains. The restaurant is clean and well‑maintained, though a few sticky areas could use a closer look. The military truck outside the entrance is a nice touch and adds to the atmosphere. My only concern was the staff member responsible for cleaning. He walked around the dining area continuously, circling the tables like a train around a Christmas tree. Passing by every minute made it a bit distracting to enjoy the meal. Once the area is clean, it might be better for him to stay in one place until needed. read more

I don't typically come to Mission Bbq but I was craving brisket. I chose the meat sampler to get a taste of 2 items. I was immediately greeted by a very pleasant young lady at the register. I wish I would've gotten her name. My order was taken by Justin who recommend the Alabama sauce and advised that all the sides were good and I agree. They were delicious! This review is more about the outstanding customer service I received. The employee that handed the food also greeted me with a huge smile. 5 for all 3 of you!!! And thank you Justin for the words of encouragement. As a military mom it is much appreciated. Thank you guys. I'll be back again soon!!! read more

Consistently tasty with quick, kind, and efficient service. The staff made the day today. While we had no idea what we wanted two were eagerly waiting to take our order. I noticed the fancy name plate and was impressed that it improves over the years with the company. Along with pay increases, that's pretty cool. While eating, another staff member stayed in clean dining area, keeping it neat and customers happy. As we admired the pictures, another staff member approached to share that the photos of first responders are donated by customers. Pretty cool. read more

This was my first time to this mission bbq. I've been to other locations and have had a nice experience . When I arrived the server greeted me and I placed my order at the register and went and got my drink while I was waiting for my food to come up. I ordered a pulled pork platter with fries and a refill of my plastic cup that I purchased at a different location. Before I could fill up my drink my order was already ready. I put hot barbecue sauce on my meat and then sat down with the group I was meeting with. My food was good and my portion size was a little larger than when I got a two meat platter at a previous Mission BBQ. I enjoyed it, the fries were delicious, the cornbread was good but a little bit dry. When I finished there were staff members that were coming around and taking our trays which was very nice and very helpful. All in all a good experience, good food, a clean restaurant, clean restrooms, and a nice atmosphere. I'll be back. read more

The greeting and service I received was a 5 out 5 of the individuals who assisted me. I was at this establishment to pick up the meals so the restaurant didn't have anyone dining as they were about to close for the night. Sadly, I have to say I nor my husband enjoyed our meals. I found the best part of the meal was the cornbread which was moist and warm. I was disappointed with the taste of the coleslaw and the baked beans were not flavorful. I'm sure others may enjoy the food but it was a no for me. Kudos for the pictures of the service men and women! read more

As a military veteran always like to support businesses that support the Armed Forces. That is Mission barbecues whole Mission. Not only that but they do provide great barbecue as well. The food can be a little bit salty so I don't have it very often. Every day at 12 noon they play the national anthem and the entire restaurant will stop and stand for it. they change up some of their sides and they have different black plate specials. All this occasion, I redeemed a free pulled pork sandwich for my birthday reward. read more

First off, let me start by saying this was my first time trying Mission BBQ. Last night I was craving something different, and after seeing someone post their meal, that was all I needed. I called at 7:10 PM and placed my order around 7:15. I arrived a few minutes before 7:30 and picked up my food to go. When I got home and opened it, the disappointment hit immediately. The brisket looked like leftovers, and I was honestly very disappointed. I called the store and spoke with the manager, Kenny. He was apologetic and kind. The first thing he said after hearing my concern was, "How can I make this right?" He offered to replace the meal, and I accepted. However, this morning (3/4/26), after thinking about how disappointed I initially felt, I decided I would prefer a refund instead of a replacement. I called and spoke with Terri. From the moment she got on the phone, she demonstrated exceptional customer service. She apologized sincerely and processed my refund without any lecturing or pushback. I explained that it was my first time trying their food and that I didn't think I would return. Terri's goal was clear -- she did not want me to walk away with negative feelings about Mission BBQ. I went to the store to meet her in person, and Ms. Terri was approachable, compassionate, and professional. She listened carefully and went above and beyond to make sure I felt heard and valued as a customer. I'm saying all this to say... I will be back! If anyone sees this, please express my sincere gratitude to Ms. Terri. You are phenomenal and truly appreciated. Terri Johnson Owings Mills, MD you are definitely a gem! read more

Lots of room, choices and atmosphere. Staff was very helpful with the sauces needs! Got brisket and chicken with the Texas Twang (tangy) and Memphis Belle sweet sauces. Sides we got were mac 'n' cheese; came with cornbread. Food was ready in a jiffy! Not sure why we don't get their food more often! read more

Customer Service: Pretty good was greeted, order taken and quality control was completed. Food- Pulled Chicken, Smoked Wings, Smoked Turkey, and Apple Cobbler. Ok, so I was starving and completely dived in and didn't have a chance to grab a picture of anything. But, EVERYTHING was delicious. The pulled chicken needed sauce, so I had the Memphis Belle. The smoked wings were sooooo tender and fell right off the bone. Next, I'm not a turkey fan but this was super juicy, tender, and flavorful. It was so good that my family and I ordered one for Thanksgiving. Last but not least, that apple cobbler, whew was better than any fast food cobbler I've ever had. Ambiance: Fast food restaurants and not a lot of ambiance. read more

We just went to this establishment yesterday and have nothing but good things to say! We brought our daughter's friend, whom never had mission bbq, and Joshua was excited to give her a rundown of the menu. We had never experienced that before and he went above and beyond in his service. He recommended a few things, such as the smoked burger. The food was all delicious and we have now made a mission bbq fan out of our daughter's friend! Joshua is an excellent employee and a keeper for your brand! read more

Hmmm so I was not super WOWED by the food but I was very impressed with the inclusive patriotic decor. First time at a MB and didn't realize that their image/motto is "The American Way". So much American and local history on the walls of this establishment, pretty neat and it definitely can aid in some pretty cool talking points/conversation starters. My Meal - I went with the smoked salmon, mac & cheese, collard greens and a sweet tea. Since it was my first time I let the front end cashier guide to these selections and I was pleasantly pleased with how the salmon came turned out. The mac & cheese was basic with what I think were some bread crumbs on top, the greens were seasoned better than I thought, so I'd rate my meal a 7 out of 10. All the items are a-la-cart and the pricing was pretty much in alignment with what it costs to eat out these days. Pretty decent experience and I may go back to try some of their other menu items. read more

Excellent and reasonably priced lean brisket with many sides to choose from. The service was excellent as everyone knew the menu well and were eager to help us. We will be coming back for sure ! DELICIOUS! read more

I absolutely love mission BBQ. This location was fine . I felt like my greens were too juicy and over filled didn't end up eating them . The food other than that was great. The service was good. Everyone was friendly. Lots of available seating . Lots of condiments available. Cool vibe to eat in and they have outdoor seating. Smells like BBQ read more

Loved it! While in Nashville grabbing BBQ a few weeks ago, my 2 Maryland friends said, this reminds me of Mission BBQ back home. *Mental note taken* Finally tried it! I really like it! My friend ordered the pulled chicken sandwich- toasted bun, which she highly recommended, and had it with fries and caramel bread pudding. So I ordered the pulled chicken sandwich, made it a XXL combo which is 2 sides and a foundation drink. I chose the Mac and cheese and baked beans for sides, topped it off with an Arnold Palmer. The XL combo features one side and a fountain drink, but for $1 more why not get the XXL. The sides a la carte range from $2-3 bucks they're made in house so I think you can't go wrong. I sampled all of the BBQ flavors in the carton. The Honey Hot and Memphis BBQ were my favorites. I loved the Mac and cheese and I loved the fries. All of the sides are homemade. I liked the chicken. Liked! I did not like the taste or texture of the bread at all. It was too thick. I ate my sandwich opened faced. I have a feeling I'll love the brisket and ribs so I'm coming back it. Next time I'll get the platter instead of the sandwich. read more

I am a Texan, so I am serious about my bbq, and unfortunately Mission BBQ failed in their assignment. I had the brisket and the mac and cheese. The mac and cheese was good, not great, but good. The cashier said it was good as mom's and I told not to walk out on that ledge. The brisket was poorly seasoned and over cooked. And sauce varieties they had on the table were just plain awful. I wish it had been a better experience because I have wait till I go home to get decent brisket and ribs. Oh well, back to the drawing board. read more

Pulled pork sandwich and ; Meat was dry as can be and the rolls they use had a stale consistency to it. The fries were good as usual, and Pepsi was good too.

I was quite impressed with the bbq here. You never know what you'll get when a restaurant says they are bbq but this, was GOOD! The Mac n cheese was a hit, the brisket was very tasty and they have plenty of sauce options, the Smokey sauce it the winner for me. Stop on in, the food is good, service was great and a very chill spot. read more

Best BBQ and service this side of the Mason Dixon! We've been coming to this location for years and they maintain a clean and spirited atmosphere, high quality food, and exceptional customers service. I can attests to the quality and consistency in their food preparation. The attentiveness of the servers is so personalized the staff knows us by name.

Logos all over the place for different people and things, pictures, and flags are all about the USA. The food is great and not as expected either; meat loaf is usually dull and boring but theirs is wonderfully delicious and actually my favorite dish. Their service is first class with them getting you right as you enter the door to making sure your cup is never empty. They have a few traditions that you might not like; for example at 12 noon they have everyone stand up and salute the flag for the national anthem. read more

I am a huge BBQ fan so I had to try this one. I read some nice reviews about this place so I decided to go grab a lunch here. As I entered I see a long queue. So I stand and admire the interior of this place. It's very unique and you would love it you follow sports. The owner has posted his pics with celebrities and he has almost met all the super stars including Michael Jordan , Lebron , Kevin Durant, Tom Brady and the list goes on. But don't worry about waiting too long because the service is very fast. They take orders pretty quick. I love pulled pork so I ordered a pulled pork sandwich. It comes with two side orders. I ordered beans and beans. My friend ordered Mac and cheese. Trust me I regret ordering beans rather than the Mac cheese because Mac & Cheese was so good. So I definitely recommend their Mac & Cheese if you can't decide on one of your sides. It's very well priced. Not expensive at all. You will have a nice lunch for $10. read more

Ok, first I ordered Cheesy potatoes with my Ribs. The cashier rang me up for Beans (which I do not eat), then I speak with the nice manager who informed me that the order was inaccurately placed. She told me to return to Mission BBQ for what I paid for. I went back and she gave me 2 orders of Cheesy Potatoes. As I was eating, I discovered black hair in my food. Yuk! What a terrible first impression. The ribs were good but I will not be returning to Mission BBQ on Foundry Rowe EVER AGAIN. I'm just disgusted. BTW, I'm a red head.​ read more

This will be concise cause I'm super busy :-) This was my first time here. The turkey was sooooo delicious. It was moist and flavorful. Yummmmm .. 5 stars The mac and cheese was very tasty. Creamy on bottom and crunchy/chewy on top! 4 stars The pulled chicken- it was ok but not my favorite .. I am not a big smoked food fan. I just tasted a bit of my friends and I wouldn't order this 2/3 stars The greens.. not my favorite. They are cooked in tomato which is weird to me. I wanted greens so decided to try them but I wouldn't get again. 2 stars I would definetly be back for the turkey, mac and cheese and cornbread.

Mission BBQ Owings Mills for the WIN!!! We ordered a catered meal for the holidays from Mission BBQ and the food, service and every part of this experience was amazing. Our family is large and hosting them is a lot of work but worth it. I decided to allow both my husband and I to spend more time enjoying them this holiday weekend and less on the grill and in the kitchen. But I was worried about whether my guests would be disappointed not to get the usual home cooking that we have always been known for as hosts. I worried for no reason. The food was hot, mouthwatering and tasted better than our home cooking! In addition the service was exceptional. I requested delivery at 2 - the young lady came 20 minutes early and when she noticed my anxiety around the side dishes being enough to feed my family, she offered to go back and get more. The General Manager refused to charge us for the extra! We were all so touched and gratified. I was also so pleased to know that the restaurant is closed on July 4 so that the team can celebrate the country's birthday and allow their families to enjoy this time off. People and relationships matter so much more than money!! I am a fan and will continue to use Mission BBQ whenever I can for my personal and business events. read more

Food was good as always I got the ribs and brisket wet My sides were the baked beans and macaroni and cheese and green beans. You would not expect the macaroni and cheese to be so good but it was really really good. The service behind the counter was very knowledgeable, helpful and thoughtful. read more
