    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.

    Mission Cantina pales in comparison to Mission Chinese. It's just not that great.

    This used to be a really good but expensive (mostly)taco place. Now it is just an expensive place.

    Overpriced and overhyped. Service was lacking and painstakingly slow. Paid $9 for two 2-bite tacos. Not worth it. Take your money elsewhere.

    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!
