Soft scrambled eggs and Uni. Sooo dope.
Meg McNamaraMarch 2, 2015
Burritos for lunch or take out only :(
AmybeeMarch 16, 2014
Overrated. Chicken wings were not fully cooked, vegetarian tacos were really lacking substance, meat tacos all tasted the same, along with patchy service. Not worth the hype.
Emily WilsonAugust 8, 2015
Mission Cantina pales in comparison to Mission Chinese. It's just not that great.
Caitlin LJune 23, 2016
Get every burrito!

Just because they take your number doesn't mean they're going to call.

Bathroom reminds me of Goonies

Fun Mexican food, but not what you're expecting.
Rachel BerkowitzOctober 2, 2016
This place is extremely overpriced. Huge letdown after Mission Chinese
Eri VJune 11, 2014
Overpriced and overhyped. Service was lacking and painstakingly slow. Paid $9 for two 2-bite tacos. Not worth it. Take your money elsewhere.
Ashley SingletonJanuary 26, 2014
Worst place ever!!! Unless you like beef tongue and veal heart don't come here. One of the most horrid menus I've ever seen.
Tiffany SerraDecember 8, 2013

Overrated. The lamb belly taco was way too fatty and not particularly flavorful.
Tricia McMahonMay 16, 2014
Horrendous service, actually had to ask multiple times for someone to take our food and drink order. Overpriced and overrated.

Terribly slow service if you eat in
MayraJuly 29, 2015
Esos taquitos de garbanzo de $1 son un hit aunque ud no lo crea! Tecate servida con limón y salecita (como dictaban los '80) + un par de taquitos y yastas!
Jorge ChavezJune 27, 2015
Lugar de tacos fusión de los mismos de Mission Chinese Food
