We live in DC, but regularly make the trip to Mookies because we love it so much. Mookies is the perfect barbecue restaurant because both the meat and side options are fabulous. Lots of delicious vegetables and dessert offerings, too! The ambiance is casual and cozy (we recommend grabbing a booth in the back room) and the service is always warm and attentive. The side platter (pictured) followed by the banana putting is always my go-to. Some delicious things not pictured include: seasonal butternut squash, roasted Salmon, French onion soup, crispy brussel sprouts. Mookies also pairs beautiful with a nature outing to Great Falls park. read more
