SUCH A GREAT TIME! Stumbled into this spot on a whim and had a blast with Deonte, Tiffany, and Matthew. Hospitality was 10/10 especially for the east coast. Nachos were GASSSS, get the Basíl Margarita you can't taste the Basíl! Immediately welcomed as soon as we walked in and consistently catered to. What a great spot to welcome in my first night in DC read more

Easy to reserve a time for our group of 50 to meet before a Nats game! Good communication, good food, and no food and beverage minimum. Anna was very helpful with scheduling. read more

Mission is on a mission to entertain and feed customers all over the District. There are several restaurants owned by the same group. Mission Navy Yard & Royal Sands are right by Nationals Park. Navy Yard Ball Park metro stop is close by. There are garages and limited street parking. Mission Dupont & The Admiral are by Dupont Circle metro. Hawthorne is near U Street metro. Salazar is on 14th Street. Mission Navy Yard is huge. There is outdoor seating on the street level. The indoor areas have a huge bar, patio seating and private event rooms. They don't accept cash. I visited during happy hour at the upstairs bar before an event. It is beautiful. I had a steak taco (without the steak). It was good. Salsa made it excellent. The staff were so nice. The bartender was attentive and nice. I would order a soft taco again. The queso is excellent. The guacamole is awesome and worth the visit. There are monitors throughout the bars for viewing games. The women's bathroom is spacious. The only detail I would change is having brighter lights in the restroom. It is very dim. Mission has brunch on the weekends and is open late every day. Happy is 4-6pm Tuesday - Sunday (late on Mondays). Worth a visit. read more

Mission is one of my favorite places to stop in Navy Yard when I'm in the mood for good Tex-Mex, great margaritas, and a fun atmosphere. The energy is always lively, especially on game days, making it a great place to meet up with friends before or after an event. The food is consistently good, the portions are generous, and the margaritas never disappoint. The tacos and appetizers are always solid choices, and the service has generally been friendly and attentive. The only reason I'm giving four stars instead of five is because it can get very loud and crowded, which sometimes makes it hard to have a conversation or get quick service during peak hours. That's part of the atmosphere, but it's something to keep in mind. Overall, Mission delivers exactly what it's known for--a fun vibe, tasty food, strong drinks, and a great location in Navy Yard. I'll definitely be back. read more

We stopped here for a quick bite before heading to the DC United game. The place was big and spacious with a nice crowd, which gave it a lively and welcoming atmosphere. Our waiter was very friendly, professional, and attentive throughout our meal. We ordered the tacos and a burrito, and everything was delicious! The food came out fresh, flavorful, and with good portions. It was a great spot to grab a meal before the game, and we really enjoyed our experience. We would definitely come back again, especially the next time we're in the area for a DC United game! read more

Tried Mission for the first time tonight. Came for the World Cup as they advertised game specials. The games were on the TVs, but not with the game sound (music was on). No problem, I just put the streaming coverage in my earbuds. I sat at the bar. They had both happy hour and the game specials on the menu. The waitress was friendly although not all that attentive. More interested in chatting with other staff and playing on her phone. Disappointing for service but not all that surprising these days. Margaritas were fine, weak as is common with happy hour offerings. The jalapeño one was my preference. I order a few different tacos and the rolled tacos but they brought me wings ‍. Everything was delicious. It was not busy on a Saturday early evening although it was raining out. I suspect this is not usual and would be much busier later. I will likely come back as I live in the Navy Yard and it was on balance good food and average otherwise. Revised my review! I ordered something on happy hour and they brought me wings. Waitress noticed after I ate the wings (I wasn't mad about it, figured it got entered wrong and I like wings). Nope, she confirmed it was entered correctly, the kitchen made the error. She went back and revised the bill and charged me full price for the wings I did not order. Bad form! The appropriate response would at least have been left it at the cheaper price of what I ordered, middle of the road is send me home with what I ordered to go and eat the error, or best case remove the item I didn't get from the bill and eat the error. The right answer is not charge the customer for an item he did not order because it was a restaurant error. Doesn't change my opinion of the food but definitely does about the service. Will think twice about coming back. read more

Mission Navy Yard - Wings, carnitas taco, double stack taco - Bars Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

Came into mission for brunch before a nats game on a weekend. We made a reservation beforehand and were escorted upstairs to a table. The interior is quite spacious with a modern feel. The upstairs bar is also very large and there was live music playing. Our server was helpful and quick, the prices were reasonable as well. My breakfast bowl was delicious, it had eggs, cheese, chicken, and tortilla strips in it. The green sauce was a little too spicy for my liking but overall it hit the spot. My friends tacos looked and tasted delicious. The bathroom lights were cool and the area was well maintained. Loved this location because of how close it is to the stadium and bull pen! We will be back! read more

I've hosted so many events with MG I've lost count. Recently brought in some coworkers for a little happy hour before the Nats game. My group was smaller than anticipated and running late - which gave me a chance to chat with our great bartender, Alex, about the setup (I just ended up putting my card down for my team to order whatever) and order some double stack tacos (my favorite!!). Alex was so kind and attentive. Thanks MNY! read more

Noa was super attentive and fun.... the pork belly tacos are a must try!!! The ambiance is super fun....

Ashley and Mia were wonderful! I'm vegan and not too many places by the ballpark have good food that can meet my dietary restrictions. Mission served it up! Delicious food! Margaritas were absolutely refreshing with a bit of attitude! Don't worry, they tailor the attitude to suit your needs Wonderful atmosphere and service! Put this place as must go! read more

Skip this place before large events at Nat's Stadium. Went here for dinner before a concert. The service was awful and slow! 20 minutes before anyone approached our table, food took forever to come out, drinks took 20 minutes. We ordered the tres amigos appetizer. It arrived with a half basket of chips, small portions. We asked 4 times for more chips, which came at the end of our meal. What should have been an hour end-to-end visit took 2.5+ hours! I took a good look because I'll never go back here again. read more

Matt and Brooke were both very kind and helpful which was just the tip of the iceberg.

I will DEFINITELY be coming back to Mission! read more

Mission, success. Fantastic tacos and vibes, Ellie was the best there ever was and ever will be.

I love the DuPont location; it's always been a personal favorite. I was excited to try Mission Navy Yard for a Sunday Football visit. The food was solid and reliable. I had the queso, a diet coke, and their signature wings, all of which were good. It was missing that sports bar vibe as it was a bit empty, but service was a little slow. Overall, a pretty decent experience! read more

Mission at the Navy Yard stands within steps away from Washington Nationals Park. Prior to my visit, I do recognize other options were favored based on recent reviews, but I took the chance, and I do regret it. Be it an off day or the standard of service in this restaurant, Mission was not it for me. Disappointing. On the day of my visit, IDs were being checked at the door. And it went downhill from there. Arrived on the 2nd floor and was told service would be quicker sitting at the bar versus at the bartops. The bartenders on the day of our visit seemed really spaced out. It may be the combination of bombardment of crowds from the game and heat, it has been a while since I received service with very poor interaction. Cold, hesitant, and impatient. Orders were simple, as offerings of the day are simple. Nothing complicated, but chips, salsa, and tacos... the meal was bland and passable. Goodness gracious, no thank you. Maybe another day. read more

Hosted a small event at Mission Navy Yard and was so easy to work with. I loved working with the team and it's a fun venue to host. I'd happily work with them again for another group event. There's plenty of space and it's metro accessible. Thanks to the team! read more

Mission Navy Yard was a fun spot! Went for a post-work college alumni event with friends and had a great time trying their drinks and enjoying the beautiful day. Mission is a bit smaller than I expected, but had enough room to fill what seemed to be 70-80 people. My friends and I enjoyed the spicy chips and salsa that paired well with our drinks. Definitely not my go-to spot in Navy Yard, but a decent choice nonetheless! read more

Got the Nachos and the margarita it was really good. Had Daniel as a bar tender and service was great!

I've been coming here for years. Always a great experience. The food is great and the staff are even better!

We came by after a game just wanting something for dinner. We enjoyed our meals (taquitos and quesadillas) and the service was pretty good, though we did have to sit at the bar upstairs. My only complaint was that it was so loud inside. We could barely communicate with our server. We were not told how or if we could sit outside. We might go back for the food if we can go earlier in the night before it turns into a club vibe but if you're looking for a good meal while in Navy Yard and can handle the noise, this is a good option. read more

The food was delicious and the drinks were on point! Make sure to go during happy hour:)

Vibe was amazing food was perfect and bartenders Emma K and Tiffani S made sure I had the perfect experience. 10/10 recommend to anyone in the area! read more

Hosted an event here last night. The mission staff were super accommodating and easy to work with. Everyone at the party had a great time.

My wife and I decided to go to Mission Navy Yard before a Nationals game. We decided to sit at the bar and order some food and drinks for brunch. We were immediately given two glasses of water while we looked over the menu. While looking over the menu and deciding what we wanted, we noticed that there were numerous people coming to stand beside and around us to order drinks and food. We also noticed that the bartenders at the bar were also serving the tables that were behind us as well. We were surprised to see that there were not waiters serving those tables. Because of this, you had people who were sitting at the tables behind us getting up and coming to the bar to order food and drinks, as well as people in general, walking up to the bar to order food and drinks. This made things very chaotic. As me and my wife were attempting to place our order, the bartenders continued to prioritize people who were coming to the bar after us. This went on for about 10 minutes. I then went to the hostess on the first floor and asked him if we could go upstairs. He said that we could go upstairs no problem, but it would be a similar situation to ordering like it was downstairs. I asked him will we be able to get a table upstairs and have a waiter instead of attempting to order food and drinks at the bar like we are doing downstairs? He told me that if we were to go upstairs we would still have to order our food and drinks at the bar. After waiting for about another five minutes and continuing to be ignored at the bar, I decided that I had enough and told my wife that we were leaving. This is a horrible concept! Having bartenders serve people at the bar is one thing. But, to also have those same bartenders serving numerous tables as well, to the point where the people who are at the tables have to come up to the bar and place their food and drink order, is madness. Especially when the bar and the whole downstairs level is packed before a Nationals game. This is very inefficient and leads to a horrible customer experience. Also, if this is going to be the concept that you go with, you will need more than just two bartenders to be able to handle that amount of traffic. read more

A fun place to end the evening with dinner. After going over to enchant at Nats park a few friends and I went to Mission. Definitely a cool vibe in restaurant part and also there was a bar area but we had someone under 21 with us so we had to go to the restaurant which was totally fine. We started with some quaso and chips. Which was pretty good. Had a nice heat to it along with gooy cheesy. Would recommend starting with it. I got enchiladas with Carnitas. It was well cooked with cheese full melted along with the carnitas. The carnitas was well seasoned was just a little over done and tasted a bit dry. It was well balanced with the enchilada sauce which was the star of the dish and created a great balance of savory and spicy. My friends got tacos and the dinner burrito. Everyone said they really liked it. Overall the next time Im in navy yard I will be back and would recommend to others. read more

Mission is my go to for happy hour in Navy Yard. The drinks are decently priced, the music is great, and the vibes are just very good. Their pineapple jalapeño margaritas are borderline dangerous lol! Also love the mission marg and their wine selection. The bartenders are super nice and definitely are not shy with their pours. Love Mission and definitely recommend it if you're looking for a good time in Navy Yard! read more

Furman University Alumni - We hosted a student/alumni reception for about 100 guests, and Mission provided top notch service, food, and atmosphere! The staff was attentive, accommodating, and happy to be there. The number and attitude of event-dedicated staff kept the food and drinks coming. The event manager, Elizabeth, made the entire event experience smooth and exactly as promised. From planning to execution to follow-up, all expectations were exceeded. Great food! The event menu was not the usual bar fare. Mission has truly unique flavors and offerings. And the truest test...our guests had a fantastic time! read more
