"I absolutely loved the cobbler and 2 lbs of brisket fed 4 people and all of them were so full and if you order the heat at home Berry Cobbler they will fully freeze the ice cream so it stays frozen the whole way! The brisket was comparable to heaven and it was so tender and fatty but the non fat part was very lean but atill very flavorful, the flavor is balanced throughout the entire slice, the mac and cheese was so creamy and stayed warm through the whole car ride the coleslaw was a perfect balance of flavor and crunch. 11/10 stars would recommend"
"Wish I could give a better review. We normally love Mission St BBQ but tonight was a miss. The brisket was cut super thick with a ton of fat, and a very small portion compared to what you would get in person. Definitely not worth $23. The kid's meal was horribly burnt and I had to cut around a ton of char just to get to edible meat for them. The restaurant also gave us a potato salad side instead of mac and cheese, which was very clearly on the receipt. Please do better with to-go meals!"

"The Santa Fe Salad that I received does not look anything like the photo, they have used red lettuce and I can't eat red lettuce and the photo does not have any red lettuce in it. I have to pick out the red leaf lettuce and am not left with much. The dressing is way too spicy also. Pure disappointment, if I would have known I would have certainly ordered something different. $20.00 down the drain."

" I got the brisket meal to go… It was delicious and everything was packed perfectly so I could enjoy it… I got the mac & cheese and coleslaw. The brisket was on point!"
"I had not ordered the brisket sandwich in months. The previous times it was great. This was horrible. First off, the size was tiny ... about 4" x 2.75". Then, I opened the sandwich and saw all the fat, which I trimed off (shown in photo), leaving little brisket.
The taste is bad too. Definitely not the same as it used to be. $18? Ridiculous!"

"The chicken tenders and fries were tasty and the order size was appropriate for the price, however, the double mocha was not as mesmerizing, I thought I would get a 20ounce mocha but received maybe a 10ounce. Not a good price for what I paid 8.00"
"Pretty sure they use AI images for their menu photos because the food looks nothing like this, not even the same ingredients. I got the Rockfish Burrito and it was huge (yay!) but it was almost entirely beans and rice. The fish was barely noticable, not big chunks like the photo but small flakey pieces and it was very dry and chewy. I ate about 1/4 of the burrito thinking they had sent me just a bean and cheese because I didn't taste any fish or pineapple. There was almost no flavor to the burrito at all and the tortilla fell apart. The Onion Rings were also huge in potion but it was all one giant greasy onion blob. Not really rings at all and a little burnt. Again, nothing like the photo, not even the same kind of batter. Really disappointing and expensive for the low quality food I received."

Thank You Gilda's and a big hug to the Chef and Preppers. "
"This was a DoorDash order.
I ordered my filet mignon med rare; it was well done. The coleslaw was hot. The spaghetti and meatballs tasted like Sysco quality; no way was it homemade. Although they didn't clam it to be homemade, it was pricy for "freezer food."
Crab cakes were sub par at best.
The vegetables were good and cooked perfectly. The fruit bowl was hot...probably similar to the hot Cole slaw being bagged with hot food.
Cold vs. hot should be bagged accordingly. We also only received one set of utensils for $140 worth of food, including two entry's. Seems common sense to pack fo at least two people eating.
Disappointing on several levels. From quality, cooking and packing the to-go."

"10/10 for the rip tide RIP-TIDE TENDERS! So meaty and juicy, the fries are great too :) and pic shows 2 RIP-TIDE TENDERS but you get 4. I just forgot to take the photo before grubbing down half of it down ;)
Just one call out, it's a bummer we don't get any dipping sauce for the RIP-TIDE TENDERS ie ranch/bbq sauce. We did get a generous portion of ketchup though :)"
"I get the mr. natural, and it is absolutely perfect everytime! I ordered one of their cookies too and they were kind enough to add a note to let me know the cookie was freshly baked to it may be soft! This place goes absolutely above and beyond, with great value and portions every time!!"

"Really great sandwiches with tons of flavor. We're so glad to have found this restaurant on DoorDash! Unfortunately, the sandwiches aren't made or presented the same way as in person. It seems like they don't care as muchand that's sad because their flavors are beyond delicious. I hope they read this review and pay more attention."
"The sandwich, although flavorful, was a hot mess when delivered two miles away. The grease/oil soaked through thin slice of sour dough bread. Making it just about impossible to eat. Had I known this was Denny's, I would have cancelled the order..."
