Great food and excellent service. Ordered a pulled pork sandwich, fries, Mac and cheese and a soda for under $20.00. Definitely my favorite bbq spot in Pensacola. read more

This was our second time coming to Missions BBQ &' it is always on point . The customer service is top notch, the greeter is sweet &' kind &' she makes sure you are well taken care of as soon as you enter and while you are eating she is attentive. I have tried the pulled pork and the ribs &' they are amazing , I don't think you can go wrong with anything on the menu so much flavor in every bite. They have 6 different sauces on the table &' just take the time to find your favorite flavors Today was the first time we were there for 12:00 IYKYK .... Such a nice touch !! Will be back &' will be recommending to more of my family as well. read more

Service - no real service. You order at the counter and then they call your name to pick up your food. Drinks are self service at another counter. Ambiance- the tables and floor was clean. Clean restrooms. The decor - well it's a theme of police, sheriff, firefighters and military service. Food - I had the sliced brisket sandwich. Plenty of lean meat but it was dry. Over cooked. The French fries were ok. Some were a little soggy and cold. My partner had the pulled pork sandwich. Again nothing special. Even their sauces were BORING. Probably not a place I would return. read more

Mission BBQ - Sliced Brisket sandwich - Salad Near Me - Pensacola, Florida

This place was fantastic! I got the 2 meat platter to try the smoked brisket and jalapeño/cheddar sausage with sides of cornbread and Mac n cheese. It was soooo delicious. The brisket was juicy and just falling apart! It's was full of flavor and paired well with the smoke mountain bbq sauce they offered. The sausage was spicy and cheeses- great balance between the two flavors. Add a little pepper to the Mac n cheese and it was perfect! Everything was delicious and filling. Definitely will go back! The staff was friendly and greeted us when we came inside. read more

Ambiance 5/5 Hygiene 5/5 Food 5/5 First of all i would return for the hospitality of Julian alone!! He is an asset for sure from the time we walked in we were greeted, fed a delicious sample (just when I thought I knew what I was going to order), he circled the dining room to ensure everyone felt like the vip customer, tidying, and making suggestions. He opened doors, wished those happy birthday, interacted effortlessly professional and personable! Music was great but also at the perfect level providing an experience but low enough to speak comfortably. Bathrooms tables floors were clean and inviting! Food: lean brisket sandwich, ribs & brisket two meat sampler cornbread collards cornbread corn mash duo. Brownie & mud pie for desert. It was filling, not heavy, flavorful, and a variety of sauces to slather your meal to your hearts desire. As if singing, doing the food dance, and enjoying my time wasn't enough Julian made my first visit unforgettable with a small token that made my week! read more

Woke up this morning with a mission: find good BBQ in Pensacola. That's harder than spotting a stealth bomber, but Yelp told me Mission BBQ at Cordova Mall was rocking 5 stars. Orders received. When I rolled up, the first impression screamed "corporate." I had flashbacks of Sonny's BBQ... but this ain't no Sonny's, Son. This food hits harder than a bunker buster. Inside, the vibe caught me off guard--in a good way. Patriotic to the core, with shadow-boxed uniforms, challenge coins built into the tables, and a salute to service everywhere you look. It's clean enough to pass a white-glove inspection, thanks to staff who are constantly sweeping the battlefield of BBQ sauce and crumbs. Counter service? Sharp as a drill team. Friendly, smiling, quick. Exactly what you want when you're hungry and on patrol for meat. Then the food hit the table: chicken, pork, brisket, mac-n-cheese, collard greens--and, as a bonus, hand-cut fries dropped in by the squad. Everything was seasoned and smoked to perfection, like it had been strategized by a five-star general. It was so good in fact that I will have to do push-ups for forgetting the recon photos! Bottom line: Mission BBQ executes with military precision. The brisket deserves a medal, the ribs could win a campaign, and the sides march in perfect formation. Consider this operation a success. Mission accomplished. read more

I can't say enough good things about this place! Everything I ate was delicious! Lean brisket, turkey, collards, green beans, fries...all wonderful. What also stands out is the service and the staff. They greet you when you come in, smile when they take your order, and walk around checking on you as you enjoy your meal. My husband was in the hospital for 2 weeks so I ate there multiple times. The friendliness of the staff was so appreciated as I was navigating a tough situation. On my last visit, after learning my husband was in the hospital, they surprised me with a strawberry shortcake (also delicious). The guy serving my food was grinning ear to ear when he surprised me with it. Little acts of kindness go a long way--especially during tough times. I took every family member and friend who came to visit us to eat here. I will visit this place every time I am in Pensacola. Check out their website--they also give back to the people who keep us safe. Well done, Bill and Newt! read more

Oh, baby, Pensacola is not what I would consider a BBQ mecca, but Mission really could show some of those other joints how it's done. My wife got the brisket sandwich, naturally, and I had the envie for ribs. She got a side of fries to share. The fries were exceptional, but they were not the star of the show. I tasted her brisket, and it was on point! I picked up a rib and saw that I was only holding a bone. All the meat fell completely off! They were absolutely perfect! There were a half dozen sauces on the table, and I dipped the french fries in each, from Texas to West Virginia and all points in between. They were delicious, but I leaned toward Texas. Do yourself a favor and take a break from the beach. Go eat BBQ at Mission. Thank me later. read more

We came here today for the first time and we'll definitely be back. The service we received was impeccable. Everyone who works here is so friendly, warm and welcoming. Lakeshia explained the menu to us with a smile and answered our questions. Todd welcomed us when we came in and made our experience lasting. Also, the food was amazing :) read more

Great flavor and quality in all the meats and sides. Clean and well-stocked condiment area. Value for your hard earned money, they don't take the customer for granted. If the mission is to make you want to return often, then it's mission accomplished! read more

From the second you pull into the parking lot you can feel the respect this business has for our veterans. That respect is very visible within the restaurant as well with the memorabilia on the wall honoring our brave men and women. The moment you walk in the door the staff is friendly and welcoming. The staff works hard to make sure customers are very well taken care of and happy. I ordered smoked chicken with baked cheesy potatoes. The skin was seasoned well with a little kick. The meat was fall off the bone, with a great flavor. Not as bold as the skin but delicious. The potato dish was recommended by one of the servers working the register. My boyfriend and I both loved them. They had large solid chunks of potatoes with a creamy, cheesy, onion flavor. Definitely a side item favorite of ours! My boyfriend ordered the pulled pork and sausage (not jalapeño cheese) combo with a side of mac and cheese. All three were delicious. The restaurant offers 6 different sauces on the table plus a spicy Alabama white sauce. (To my recollection) * Texas sauce * KC sauce * South Carolina sauce * sweet heat * Smokey mountain sauce * Memphis sweet read more

Mission BBQ in Pensacola is legit. The food is good, the service is impeccable, and the ambiance is BBQ vibe with military decor throughout the building. To top it off, this is the ONLY place I know that doesn't ask for tips. They can accept them, but the register doesn't ask for one when you cash out. Worth the stop if you're flying in/out of Pensacola Airport, as it's about 3 minutes from the terminal. read more

Absolutely the greatest night out ! we was looking for a Dairy free / Turkey dinner . This Place has the best smoked Turkey plate we have had in so many years . This place is full of helpful staff and the waiter Nick was super friendly and attentive! This program isn't allowing me to show you a picture of the five slices of Turkey and hand slice fry's that are to die for ! But trust me you want to eat here read more

Nick was excellent experience was amazing he makes the environment feel comfortable and so much more welcoming!!

Food: Mission BBQ serves up an impressive array of barbecue classics,I enjoyed their pulled chicken sandwich. The chicken is juicy, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. Pair it with one of their sauces for an extra burst of flavor (tip on the sauces found below). Their sides are fantastic--the mac & cheese is creamy and topped with small bread crumbs. Everything tastes freshly prepared, and the portions are good, ensuring you'll leave satisfied. It is a little pricey but worth it. Ambience: The patriotic theme at Mission BBQ is immediately noticeable and adds a unique touch to the dining experience. The walls are adorned with memorabilia honoring military personnel, first responders, and veterans. It's a warm and welcoming environment that fosters a sense of community and respect. The restaurant is clean, well-lit, and family-friendly. Service: The service at Mission BBQ is top-notch. The staff is friendly, attentive, and eager to make recommendations if you're unsure what to order. Food is served quickly, and the team goes out of their way to make you feel appreciated. They also take time to engage with veterans and active-duty service members, which adds a personal and meaningful touch to the dining experience. Don't skip the sauces! Experiment with the different flavors to find your favorite. Key Tip: You have to ask for the Alabama White sauce. They don't keep it at the tables with the other sauces. Highly recommended for families, veterans, and anyone craving authentic barbecue! read more

Had the ribs and they were tender for the most part. Cream corn was really good also. Turkey, sausage, and cheesy potatoes were winners too. Two people for $50. read more

Food was delicious, customer service was great. Very friendly staff. Clean and bright interior with fun decor.

I've been to one Mission BBQ before and have wanted to go again, so I'm thrilled that we have one local now! Service was phenomenal- Julian was so nice, very friendly, and made us feel so welcome. Ask for the Alabama white sauce (it's behind the counter). 5 stars! If they have blueberry cobbler on the menu, get it. You'll thank me later for both. Brisket was fantastic and the perfect portion. Fries are some of the best-- almost like they're fried to cook them and then get a quick dip in even hotter oil to make sure they're crispy on the outside, but still soft inside. Mac n cheese...love it when they have browned cheese on top! Literally tasted like something my grandmother would make. Collard greens are pretty spicy (they don't call them kickin' for no reason!), but have excellent flavor. Pulled pork is a massive portion. It had a great flavor. Only complaint was that it was so "pulled", some of the bites were almost stringy. Not a big complaint, though. This will definitely become a staple for us when we're in Pensacola each week! read more

The BBQ was excellent- we had the 2 meat Option (Brisket and Chopped Pork) the kool thing is they ask you how you want it Lean, Moist or Wet- I really appreciate that. My wife doesn't do well with fatty meat so that was perfect. The Mac and Cheese was great and the Blueberry Cobbler awesome. Worth a try. read more

Dropped in here on a spur of the moment, wanting something quick. My first visit. As others have noted; you're greeted upon entering and ordering was quick and easy. Since, i wasn't that hungry, I ordered the smoked cheeseburger. Food was brought to the table. First, i should have ordered their BBQ , as I found the burger, which had a great taste... dry. On hindsight, Im not sure you could actually serve a "juicy" smoked burger, as the smoke would tend to dry out a meat like that. All in all, I still enjoyed the experience.. as a veteran, the Military memorabilia was great to see and feel. Thank you! read more

I know Mr Charles. And this food is so good. I love this food so much. Really good and you should really try it for your self.

Went to mission bbq for the first time. Had the brisket sandwich. It was "okay" but nothing overly memorable! They really need to cut the meat thinner. It's just too thick for a sandwich. They give a nice amount but definitely need's to be thinner. Service was good but the person at the register who took our order was clueless on what was good or popular. They simply wanted to take the order and move on. The wait staff was very friendly and did have more knowledge of the restaurant. The restaurant has a nice feel with a nice tribute to the military services with pictures everywhere. Overall I would say we will give it another try or two and try different menu items. read more

Decided to try this place for lunch. I like the format where you order your meat a la carte and sides or if you want a combo, you pick your meat then add a combo item, which is a side(s) and drink, to the meat. I order the ribs, which you can pick your size. I picked the five bone ribs. Added the XL combo, which is one side (green beans) and a drink. They call your name when the order is ready. The service was excellent where a person comes around making sure you have everything you need. On the table, there's like six different bbq sauces. I tried the first one, and it was tasty. Didn't get a chance to try other sauces since the one selected worked well with the ribs. The meat fell right off the bone and I was able to eat the meat with a fork. The green beans were delicious. I can't wait to try this place again. read more

Still amazing as ever! Food is fantastic, and so are the people! Sylvia is wonderful!
