Some of the best seasoned brisket I’ve had in a while. You have two options to choose moist or lean. I recommend the moist because of the fat and flavor. The fries were good and the cornbread was just OK. Everything is à la carte so make sure you take that into consideration when ordering. The employees were very professional and came to your table to ask if you needed anything. Atmosphere was clean lots of families and I definitely will come back for this brisket.
The mission and vision of this restaurant is very heartfelt as my dad was a veteran, and this means a lot to all those who served.

This place is awesome.. We had the pulled pork sandwich and brisket.. mac n cheese and corn.. the person in the dining area was giving free dessert to veterans and first responders which is awesome.. I got the banana pudding and it was sooo good! Their brisket is so juicy and their 6 sauce choices did not disappoint.. 100% coming back!

Great new local BBQ spot! The atmosphere is warm and family-friendly, and the staff is welcoming and attentive. The menu is all à la carte, which lets you mix and match your favorites. We tried the brisket, ribs, shredded chicken, and a turkey sandwich, all were flavorful and cooked perfectly. For sides, we had the baked beans, cornbread and for dessert, we enjoyed the banana pudding everything was delicious.
Overall, a great experience we’ll definitely be back!

Fantastic food, friendly and fast service, fun atmosphere! The smoked cheeseburgers are fantastic, and have that “backyard grill” quality. The pulled pork is perfect. The salmon is amazing. We love when the Hawaiian ribeye comes around as a seasonal offering. Servings are generous (about 8 oz for most of the meats) and combined with the sides, I routinely have leftovers. The sides are my absolute favorites at any local BBQ joint, and I love the cornbread (and if we get dessert, I’ll just get another piece of cornbread). The tea is brewed, and you can mix in lemonade for an Arnold Palmer if you’re inclined. There is an outdoor sheltered/shaded dog-friendly patio with a nice breezeway for when the weather is nice out. There’s plenty of parking, too. Overall, consistently great food and experience!

My family has frequented a dozen BBQ places around central Florida over the years. But Mission BBQ has won our taste buds (and hearts)! Delicious & juicy meats (unlike most other too dry fare), all at a very reasonable price. The patriotic mission & decor put the restaurant in a category of it’s own. We’ve become loyal customers – and if you try it, I’m confident you will too!

We stumbled into this BBQ place. We noticed a theme: Veterans! Then, we joined the other patrons for the national anthem (grateful tears). The brisket was the best! We will not hesitate to intentionally return! Thank you for your service.

Mission BBQ is the best place to enjoy a good BBQ experience. Nine months ago, my mother and I went to Mission BBQ to dine in, and the interior is terrific. The employees were very friendly, taking care of our orders, and the food (Pulled Chicken Sandwiches) was delicious. Additionally, I appreciate the quotes on the cups from various celebrities. Their BBQ is so good, I want to go back there again and try their baby back ribs. Lastly, thank you to the firefighters, police officers, and veterans who serve our country.

Visiting family in Clermont and wanted BBQ before leaving. We haven’t been here before and decided to check it out, and very happy we did. Walking in it is clearly a veteran friendly atmosphere. Parking for Veterans at the front and memorabilia everywhere about the services. Super awesome. Ordered the meat sampler, and was pleasantly surprised. Everything was amazing especially the brisket. Melt in your mouth and the ribs had the meat falling off the bone. Multiple types of BBQ sauce on the table to try. Banana pudding was awesome also. Service was very fast and friendly. Will definitely be back on my next visit. Highly recommend.

I’ve order the same order a few times a while back, so I can tell that the quality and portions have significantly declined. It’s almost as if I was given rations for the brisket and ribs. The moist brisket was mostly burnt and dry, as if overcooked of left out too long. The ribs were also dry and small. The Mac and cheese and cornbread was still good. The service was great as always. Please remember quality over quantity!

This place has my respect. I think the atmosphere is humbling and welcoming all wrapped up in one. The food is great and comes quick. They ask if everything looks okay before you take it. They have a few ladies walk around to get you straws and lids and things and they immediately clean the table when you walk away. Pictures cover the walls of veterans. What a patriotic place.
