CEO STEVE NEWTON should be proud of this location! Mouth watering bbq, award worthy side dishes, scrumptious sauces and 5 star guest service. This store gets my G.O.A.T AWARD! I have reviewed restaurants and service industry businesses for over 38 yrs. I have NEVER been inspired to contact corporate to applaud a staff. However, Heidi and Shelby at the Jacksonville, Fl Orange Park location changed that for me. I was referred to your restaurant by a guest at my restaurant. I called and was pleasantly greeted by Heidi. Her professionalism, kindness and warm demeanor was refreshing. As a first time guest, she invested her time and knowledge to guide me through the menu. Her descriptions were mouth watering and I ordered every suggestion. Upon arrival, I was greeted by Shelby with a big smile. Her enthusiasm made me feel at home. Shelby even helped me pick out several sodas. This team is amazing! Because of their efforts, I will be back. I have over 500k views on my Google Reviews and will be adding Mission BBQ of Orange Park to the Hall of Famers. Well done Team Mission BBQ, hats off and 3 snaps!!!

We enjoyed 2 different sampler orders, drinks and sides on location which were flavorful & delicious. Mind you I am not big on hot Spicy sauces. We also met a fantabulous host (see pic) which made our 1st time visit all the more enjoyable. We were also gifted 2 FREE sandwich cards - wow! Returned to redeem the 2 gifted FREE sandwich cards the eve before returning to NYC. To our surprise the eve crew were no where near as pleasant as were the daytime team. The staff came across irritated that we asked to redeem the free sandwich tickets they gifted us 2 days to before; one of the food preparer guys (tall guy with dreads) literally threw 1 of the 2 sandwiches into the container; surprisingly enough we were also dismissed when we mentioned it & showed one of the counter girls the messy sandwich that was thrown into its container. Ultimately, I really don’t believe this ill service/behavior is the actual culture of this business. The food is definitely deliciously flavorful & therefore worth your visit. However, Mission BBQ may want to consider retraining their team/staff w/customer service workshops…

Overwhelmingly Grateful for Mission BBQ's Incredible Service!

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Mission BBQ for our wedding, and I can honestly say that our experience was flawless from start to finish. Every aspect of our experience was handled with so much care and professionalism, making our day stress-free and perfect!

A huge shout-out to Autumn, who led our wedding tasting consultation. She made sure that we not only had the best food options but also took the time to guide us through the entire tasting process. Her expertise and attention to detail in ensuring our menu was perfect were unmatched. We knew right away that Mission BBQ was the right choice!

Tisha, our Wedding Concierge, was nothing short of amazing. She handled all the planning leading up to the big day with such grace and efficiency. Tisha was incredibly organized, making sure all our needs were met, and she was a constant source of support. Her communication and proactive approach gave us peace of mind and allowed us to truly enjoy our special day without any worries.

The catering team, led by Soniyah, was simply outstanding. The food exceeded our expectations—each dish was flavorful, fresh, and beautifully presented. We received countless compliments from our guests on how fantastic everything tasted, and the presentation was just stunning. It was clear that every detail was thoughtfully planned and executed.

The decorations were gorgeous and perfectly complemented the style of our wedding. The setup was flawless, and the atmosphere they helped create was a true reflection of the vision we had. Every detail was spot-on and added such a personal touch to the day.

What really stood out to us, though, was the warmth and professionalism of everyone involved. Every single person from the Mission BBQ team was friendly, courteous, and provided truly “white glove” service throughout the entire event. It’s clear that they all take pride in their work and genuinely care about making each event special.

We are incredibly grateful for the effort and care that Autumn, Tisha, Soniyah, and the entire catering staff put into making our wedding perfect. This team went above and beyond our expectations, and we cannot recommend them highly enough. You all helped create the most unforgettable day for us, and we will forever...

My sister has visited this restaurant a few times and her pictures always made me with I lived closer to try this place out. When I came to visit we were trying to figure out what to do for dinner and decided to come to Mission BBQ. The salad my sister gets sounded great but once I was looking at the menu I was at a loss of what to order. I wanted to try everything!

The staff were very friendly and patient. They walked me through the menu and my ordering options. They also explained that everything is made fresh which I appreciate.

I ended up doing a two meat combo. I ordered the pulled pork and the jalapeno and cheese sausage. For sides I ordered the two seasonal items, creamed corn and caramel bread pudding. My combo also came with cornbread and a drink.

I started off by trying out the different BBQ sauces. I tried 4 of the 6 and settled upon my favorite. I added a little to my pulled pork because it did need a little moisture. The pulled pork was very nicely seasoned and I enjoyed it. The jalapeno and cheese sausage....I'm in love with it. I love spicy and this had just the right amount of heat with gooey cheese that did not spill out of the sausage. It held together very well and the meat was seasoned great. I love this sausage. The cornbread was good, although I thought a little dry but was tasty with butter. The creamed corn was amazing. I am a corn lover and this did not let me down as some other restaurants have. I could have gone for a quart of this stuff. The caramel bread pudding was good but a little too sweet for me. For drink options they have Pepsi, which I am not a fan of. I opted for unsweetened Iced tea which unfortunately tasted like Brisk Iced Tea, which was sweet and did not taste freshly brewed. I think I would stick with water next time.

Overall it was a very nice visit to this restaurant. The food was great and the staff were very friendly and welcoming. I'd visit again when I come back to...
