Have been here many times when on our Mission visits. The Beef Brisket is as stated a lean cut but is very tender. Generous serving sizes. We smoke our own brisket at home and the smoke ring is perfect. Flavor is pleasant smoke not overpowering. Charro beans were my late Fathers favorite so always have them as a side. Pleasant Heat . Grapefruit Pie was the real reason my husband chose to eat here on our last night in Mission. We love this and make at home whenever we have Rio Star grapefruit available in Indiana.

Large party, made arrangements to be in their private room, and did preorders for their fabulous ribs and their chicken!There were over 35 of us, and food came in a timely manner. Servers were great and the food was awesome!Ribs falling of bone, chicken with just the correct amount of smoke and sauce!But the âstarâ of most played, was the baked potato! OMG!!!Best baker weâd had in a very long time! One person said it was as good or better than a twice baked potato! Thatâs something to remember!

The staff was friendly enough, but that didn't make up for the extremely poor quality of the 'food' we were served. My wife and I both ordered the $9.99 brisket and sausage special with 2 sides, and were very disappointed with what we got. The portions were small, the brisket was mostly gristle and slime, and the sausage was dry and hard to chew. The cabbage in the cole slaw was going brown and the french fries tasted like recycled oil. I am truly baffled by the positive reviews other people have posted for this restaurant. Either my wife and I were the only ones ever to have had a bad experience here, or others have a mighty low threshold for satisfaction. Needs much improvement.
4. Vela's Burgers & Ribs
Reviewed By mrmoparhemi
Having lived in Mission all my life I thought I had experienced all the burgers but I was wrong. Vela's is a newcomer to the area and after hearing my friends rave about the burgers I had to give it a try . IMO Vela's holds the crown for best burger in Mission as of April 2015. The menu has various selections including the Mexican style hot dogs which are also amazing. Service was excellent and the place is spotless.
