“My family and I decided we wanted BBQ and found this restaurant. What a great choice. The brisket and smoked turkey were full of flavor. We order the feast for four. The three sides were potato salad, Mac and cheese, and cornbread. You need to get to this restaurant.“
“The food is always great quality and top notch in flavor! The staff is friendly and helpful while the restaurant is clean and inviting. If you’re looking for a good BBQ meal, I would highly recommend giving Mission BBQ a try! They also have an amazing catering menu that is perfect for any event or gathering.“
“I have tell you the manager and greeter here is bar none. We drive an extra 30 minutes to go to this location when we have one a lot closure. The customer service is unlike anywhere we have eaten dinner. We are faithful to visit bi weekly sometimes sooner.“
“Kelly and the Old Blue BBQ Team is AMAZING! I highly recommend you hire them for your next event. I hired Old Blue BBQ for my wedding. From our first interaction, she has been great to work with. Starting with the tasting, my husband (fiance at the time) is disabled and wheelchair-bound. For our tasting, instead of us coming to them, they came to us and we had a tasting in our home! Their food was soooo delicious. And I can confirm it wasn’t just delicious at the tasting, it was delicious on our wedding day. Our guests loved and raved about the food!! The entire team was great. Great customer service. Friendly to work with. Extremely knowledgable. They can truly double as a caterer and wedding planner. They even have a bride share program where you can use décor leftover from previous events for your special day, free of charge! Kelly's communication is great! She is so responsive. I highly recommend them for your special day. Thank you, Kelly, and your amazing Old Blue BBQ team! You made my special day a success. If you are reading this comment, look no further and contact Old Blue BBQ for your event. I promise you will not be disappointed.“
“Wanted to take the family out for a late lunch for my sons Bday and decided to stay a little closer to home, glad we made the choice to go to Firepan! We usually venture out to the Annandale area for KBBQ but this place was good! The Bonchon, the meats and drinks were all on point! Hope this place keeps up the good work!“
“Tasty Korean bowls and more. The environment isn't too much to rave about, but the team there were very nice. The dining area can get tight considering how popular this place can get. This location and others share a small parking lot out front. We chose this location for its proximity to Fort Belvoir. You will order food and drinks at the counter and get a buzzer while they fix your food. I was hungry enough for a full size bowl, but they have lunch bowls which are smaller and more economical for those that do t want to fill up I ordered a spicy pork bowl, which had japchae, lettuce, spicy pork over a bowl of rice. I also ordered it with an egg. It was great and filling. I also tried out their sliders, which can be made out of any of the meats available, but I got a bulgogi slider which came with two mini burgers. It was all great. So good, my friend and her husband returned the very next day.“
“Impromptu momma son dinner date, I let my son pick the restaurant and this place did not disappoint. The inside was small but nicely decorated, the service from the moment we walked in to the moment we left was great. The server made great suggestions and was really friendly, the wings and bacon appetizer were delicious! We have found our new wing place and look forward to going again soon.“
“Luming's offers delicious, authentic Filipino food! The chicken and pork BBQ, pancit, vegetable lumpia and turon were all amazing! We are from out of town so weren't able to sample everything, but can only imagine the other dishes must be just as good. We tried a few different Filipino restaurants in the area and the others were more fusion than true Filipino, making Luming's our absolute favorite!The service was great, as well. The young Filipinas working with on a Sunday were upbeat, helpful and efficient. There was a steady stream of customers coming in and they provided great customer service all around.We will definitely be back the next time we visit the DC area.“
“Thank all of you for catering my daughters Wedding yesterday. The good was absolutely delicious as always. The green beans were a hit never had them like that before but omg they were delicious the chicken was so juicy the pulled pork was ro die for and the corn was amazing also. Thank you all for the friendly staff and love what you all do. The best barbeque place around“
“Thought this was a sit down place but when we got here we were greeted with a sample rib which instantly had us ordering. Food was great also the people who helped us. Definitely needing of a local restaurant for sit down is the only difficult thing.“
“I feel that barbecue is subjective and kind of depends on your personal preference if you like it or not. My idea of good BBQ may not be yours. That being said... I LOVED this place. My brothers and I were in the area and one has been craving BBQ something fierce. Walking in, the place smells like heaven. We probably ordered way more than we should have because if we weren't hungry before, we definitely were when we smelled how good it smells here. We all ordered the pulled chicken sandwich, soda, cornbread and we each ordered different sides: baked beans and corn pudding, yucca fries and fried okra, and onion rings and macaroni and cheese. We also had a side of coleslaw to share since BBQ sandwich + coleslaw = perfection. You order at the counter, stop to gawk at the biggest selection of hot sauces I have ever seen for sale, grab your plastic ware and fountain soda, debate if you want pickled jalapeños, pickled onions, hot pickles, (hot pickles were AWESOME!!!!!) and then have a seat. They brought us the food pretty quickly and we dug in. We found their original BBQ sauce, found on the counter in a giant cauldron thing, a little too sweet and tomato-y for our likings (although I did enjoy digging the sweet marinated onions out of my cup of sauce, because those were great with the pickled onions and hot pickles), but they had a smoky and sweet one on the tables that we really liked. The onion rings were so crispy on the outside and soft on the inside and tasted amazing. I dipped one in his macaroni cheese and that tasted pretty darn good too. The fried okra is a huge portion and is also perfectly fried. The yucca fries were also wonderfully crisp on the outside and soft on the inside and not at all greasy. The baked beans are a little savory and a lot sweet. The corn pudding is very soft and fluffy and tastes like a hush puppy without the hard exterior. The coleslaw is delicious. They add super crisp peas and carrots to the normal cabbage. More places should get on this because it adds sweetness and texture and it is fantastic!!!!! The cornbread is amazing! I have no idea how they make it so fluffy and moist but WOW. I may carry honey in my handbag in case there is ever cornbread and I have never been so happy about my weird tendencies because YES!!!!!!! The pulled chicken was juicy and tender and smoky and so good. The buns they use are perfect for standing up to the saucy goodness. We really wanted to try some of their pies and banana pudding, but we couldn't eat another bite by the time we left. The portions were very generous, you couldn't even close the bun around all of the chicken without it jumping ship. You definitely need a fork to scoop up all your fallen chicken, which is also how I like my BBQ... I really wish we lived closer to this place because it was delicious and I would probably feign being too tired to cook dinner at least once a week so we could come here.“
“hands down the best BBQ in Southern MD with no competition even close... the food was fresh, the sides were fresh, and well seasoned full of non stop flavor!!!!! my food did not make it out the parking lot before it was gone! Ribs were juicy and tender full of smokey flavor no sauce necessary. Sweet potatoes were sweet not over done taste like home. By far the best collared greens I've ever had... if you haven't yet, you need to go try this place out don't wait any longer“
“Husband and I both got 2 meat platter because we wanted leftovers. It’s enough food for 3 meals easy. Everything was delicious!! My favorites were the brisket, cucumber salad and cornbread. Donna’s got it going on cause her food is full of flavor!!“
“This small restaurant is tucked away on Livingston Road by the LSW Liquor Store. Cozy and inviting, the restaurant is a great place to stop by for lunch or dinner. I had the grilled beef fajitas which was hot with beans, salad, and rice. Delicious and very satisfying at a reasonable price. I didn't take a photo but I will add a photo of the menu later. It specializes in Tex-Mex and Salvadorean food. I would highly recommend it. No frills, just good comfort food.“
“Ok, Wifey and I started out on our Thursday date night with Annapolis intentions, then she hit me about the Lion Lunch Hour segment featuring this restaurant in which I immediately complied. So, we fired up the ride and La Plata it was. Not unfamiliar territory for us and to be quite frank all dining adventures in that proximity have been delightful. Let's dive in....location, ambiance and food were totally on point. Since I'm smoking a brisket and pork butt this weekend, Wifey opted for the Cajun Salmon & Shrimp with yellow rice, and I, Oxtails with cabbage and collards. Everything was fresh, not salty and the veggies were REAL, not canned or frozen. I also got an order of jerk wings to go, and they were totally authentic, what we had on the beaches of Sandals in Ocha Rios and West Coast!!!! We also had drinks and they were delightful as well. The only things stopping this from 5 stars is the order layout, you order at the counter, then sit and wait for the food, unlike a traditional restaurant. They also seemed a little understaffed in regard to the overall flow with no interaction at the dine in tables unless you go back to the order counter. Will definitely be back to witness the evolution!!!!“
“Delicious sooooo delicious. The ribs in my opinion are award winning in itself. I have tried the St. Louis and baby back ribs. Both were great but the St. Louis ribs were amazing! I prefer the devils ray BBQ sauce on the side. It is little spicy just a lil kick to it.“
“Torria is so sweet and made my experience good here at Longhorn. I don’t come often, if at all, but she delivered an amazing server’s etiquette at my table. She wasn’t overwhelming but made sure to check in periodically. One major thing that stuck out for me was that she listened. I always ask for water with no ice everywhere I go and usually the server NEVER listens. Torria listened and I was solely happy with that ?“
“The food lived up to expectations. Chili dogs were crazy delectable and the banana pudding was awesome. Can't wait to try more of the menu. This little quaint spot feels like I was growing up in the seventies.I know I'm 51 now lol. Definitely get a Sundae it's to die for!“
“Hands down the best Soul Food restaurant in town. The Lamb Lollipops are the bomb! The catfish fillets are amazing, the deserts the side dishes!!!….. I could go on and on about this place and the staff is so friendly and helpful!! Clean atmosphere, the games were on the tv’s, and the music was nice and soothing!! Just a great experience overall!! I’ll be back every week now that Ive found this spot! ❤️❤️❤️ LOVE, LOVE, LOVE“
