“Such an amazing place. We were starving after a long day at universal, and very quickly found something close to our hotel with not much thought into what we were wanting. We walked in and immediately loved the decor, music, and menu. With 3 teenage boys and a picky husband, finding a place we all love is tough. Mission BBQ was definitely a hit for our entire crew. We plan on stopping by again before heading back to Oklahoma.“

“Decided to try this establishment on a Thursday evening, due to all the hype. And to say I was just dissapointed is an understatement. It started with the ladies at the front. There were 4 just standing around talking and laughing. Becky seemed to be the one directing this area. My interaction with her left me feeling as though she didnt have time for us and not any kind of priority whatsoever. I could see x5 empty booths, AND the 4 of them were in no hurry to seat people. Our waitress was courteous. We ordered drink and food. Now I will say, the food literally came out the fastest I have ever seen! The downside you ask....well I ordered Blackened mahi...and it was literally room temperature..which says only 1 thing, its premade and sitting waiting for an order. It also didnt appear as if it was acrually mahi, instead of a white appearance it had a light brown tone. The wife ordered pulled pork, and was very dry, also leading me to believe it had been sitting for quite a while. Overall the lukewarm food and cold customer interaction left this place with a solid F in my book. I will say the atmosphere is the only thing good about this establishment. Dont always fall for the hype!“

“Just called Rivers Lakeland to place a pick up order. Man answered the phone. Stated they don't take orders by phone have to do online. Told him I tried that wouldn't work. Said that's how they do take out. I've been going to 4 Rivers for years. Was ordering for six people over $100. Told him I'll find some place else to order from. Won't be back.“

“10 out of 10 recommend!Food and service are top notch.“

“Good Barbeque restaurant in the Florida Mall. The Florida Mall has 6 anchor stores, 250 stores and over 1.7 million square feet of space. This makes it one of the largest malls in Florida. It is a very nice mall and seems in my opinion large, clean and upscale compared to most in the area. The Mall has an entire dining pavilion near the center of the stores on the north side of the structure. There are 25 restaurants around a central eating area. The restaurant at the mall entrance part of the dining pavilion is a Barbeque restaurant called Gotcha Smokehouse BBQ. It sports a small entrance with a counter facing the mall and a few seats to the right hand side as you enter the establishment. The staff was very friendly and offered samples as I entered. I sampled the chicken and the beef and decided to order the chicken with my two sides being rice and beans. The chicken and rice was very good. The beans and corn bread were not to my liking. The price was reasonable for the amount of food that I received. Overall, it was a good meal at a good price that I would recommend for people looking for good barbecue in the area.“
