First time and definitely won't be our last! :) The food was delicious and VERY fairly priced(!!), service was kind and attentive, and the ambiance is *perfect*-- chill, cozy neighborhood diner vibes. I love Chilaquiles and their version (for $13.95!!!) did not disappoint. HIGHLY recommend Mission's Kitchen, can't wait to come back and support this gem!!! read more

Mission's Kitchen - Chilaquiles, 2 Pancakes & Fresh Squeezed Carrot Juice - Diners Near Me - San Francisco, California

I finally made it out to Mission's Kitchen this past weekend after hearing from a few people that it was a solid breakfast spot--and they weren't lying. I ordered the omelet special, where you pick your own toppings. I went with mushroom and cheese, and it was a hit. The omelet was fresh, flavorful, and you could tell everything--from the eggs to the cheese and mushrooms--was quality. Every bite tasted clean and satisfying. It came with a side of home-style fried potatoes with red and green bell peppers, and those were just as good--crispy on the outside, soft inside, and seasoned right. I also got a side of sourdough toast, which was fresh and not stale at all, plus a cup of coffee that was smooth and not watered down--definitely a good start to the day. As for the ambiance, it's a small but cozy spot--not too big, not too cramped. It has a cool Central American vibe, and I noticed they offer some dishes like chilaquiles, which I'm definitely going back to try next time. You can feel the care they put into the place, even with the size. Heads up: get there early. I walked in and got lucky with one open seat, but right after that, there were people waiting outside to get in. It's a popular spot for a reason. Final verdict? Two thumbs up. Great food, good coffee, chill vibe. If you're in the Mission and looking for a real breakfast spot, Mission's Kitchen is absolutely worth checking out. read more

Everything you could ask for from a neighborhood hole in the wall: bustling energy, chock full of locals, and, most importantly, great tasting food. I tried the chilaquiles, which comes with two eggs any way, refried beans, and rice. I also opted to add a steak, because why the heck not. The portion was huge! I loved that, despite being a quick service diner, they asked me how I liked my steak, and it came out perfectly (a deliciously tender mid-rare). The steak & eggs, plus coffee, came to $24 before tip, which I thought was more than reasonable given the size. Come here if you're looking for something less touristy, with an old-school diner twist, and delicious food served with a smile. read more

A no-frills diner with cheerful staff serving up huge Mexican/Central American dishes. They also have typical American breakfast dishes (pancakes, omelettes, etc.) but the magic is in the desayunos especiales. Sometimes we want a hearty breakfast that includes fried plantains, so we come here! If you do visit, come hungry and early. This fills up with local families from 10am on, especially on the weekends. Sometimes a guitar player and/or accordion player will serenade diners too. read more

Mission's Kitchen - My Azteca Scramble, and Eric's Central American Special across the way - Diners Near Me - San Francisco, California

I've been searching for a reasonably priced breakfast spot, since prices have skyrocketed over the last 2 years. Found it! Mission's Kitchen is not a looker, but it's obviously popular, the food is good and the portions large. My waitress, Sophia, spotted me as a newbie right away. She came over and after introducing herself, proceeded to tell me the history of the restaurant - what wonderful, friendly person! And the menu prices haven't changed very much over the last 2 years. I'll be back. read more

They let me sit in a bigger booth even though it was just me. I like that they accommodated me during a busy time.

I've been coming here since I was 9! My favorite thing here is the spicy chilaquiles. (They also have great amercano breakfast plates) The staff is super kind, and this place is always packed! Perfect for a group dinning or they have bar seating so if you want a meal to yourself! They have a small kitchen (you can see the two men cooking all the meals!) I will always come back here for the nostalgia, but also the delicious food. read more

If I die and I go to heaven. I hope I wake up to eating a fresh plate of Mission Kitchens chilaquiles verdes, with steak and eggs over easy. That would be the epitome of eternal paradise. Amen. read more

What a great hole-in-the-wall! It's a Mexican diner serving breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I came here for breakfast and sat at the counter. Service was good and the spicy green chilaquiles were great (although not actually spicy to me). I ordered it with a steak (extra $) cause I gotta have my meat haha. They also serve fresh orange juice and there's plenty of other comfort food to choose from - Mexican and American. I'm definitely coming back! read more

Mission's Kitchen - Spicy green chilaquiles with a steak (extra $), 2 eggs, beans and rice. - Diners Near Me - San Francisco, California

I ordered two chilaquiles one with Steak- come to find out there is no steak in my order! I called back to tell them they messed up my order! No steak! The lady Mary says she will call her boss back Irene to see how to reimburse me on my debit card. I hope she isn't pulling my leg- I can't even enjoy my lunch now. I will be back Monday to take care of this problem. I live too far away and work too far away. UPDATE^*** boss invited me to breakfast (7/8/20) , placed said order and told the waiter on the phone about prior incident. The waiter said I'd have to take this up with Mary. Disappointing service to their loyal clients. read more

This joint is a good breakfast place with a good latin breakfast dishes. I'm a regular but service is ok. They can take forever to take your order or give your bill. Other than that it's ok. read more

I love this restaurant. They make probably the best Chilaquiles in the city. My girlfriend and I go here all of the time for brunch and they are very consistent with the food. I recommend the spicy Chilaquiles if you're love spicy food. The waitstaff is friendly and sometimes there's a musician singing Hispanic songs while you enjoy your food. Did I say this place was really good? My favorite breakfast spot in the Mission district. Parking will be hard to find because it is San Francisco and the Mission is pretty packed most days. I also tried their apple juice and it's pretty darn good. read more

Good diner food. Eclectic crowd and usually busy. Yelp tripped me up because I was headed there one night and they had not updated their hours. When I got there they were closed and I was disappointed. read more

Mission Kitchen is the best! I've never had a wait to get a seat here. I like sitting at counters, and this place has a cozy little counter area near the kitchen. If you're ready, they are happy to take your order instantly. It only takes a few minutes typically for them to come out with my food. I love coming here for breakfast and typically get the eggs, french toast, and some sausage. Be sure to ask for the fruit on top! Gotta cover your bases there. PRO-TIP: If you get the hashbrowns, ask for them crispy. They get this nice crisp shell if you do. Another favorite item here is the juevos rancheros. They do it traditional style and the eggs are plentiful. The owner is happy to discuss politics if you are up for it! read more

This was the second time going to this place, seems like the first waiter was better than this lady I encountered today.. I walked in and order the Mickey which in the kids place the menu shows fruit and one pancakes with Mickey ears. I ordered this because my one yr old baby only eats fruits. I get the food but one pancake+ egg no fruit. I tell the waitress and she gets me fruit. At the time of payment I notice that a 8 as cup of fruit was $4.75 so my baby's food is $14.75 one pancake one egg and a few pieces of fruit. Disappointed I pay her and leave her a $3 tip. Now I feel like I shouldn't have because. The menu has a picture of the kids plate with fruit and I ended paying for it because of false advertisement. I won't go back. Disappointed . read more

Sure, there are plenty of taquerias in the Mission but what about true greasy spoons that serve breakfast plates in the evening? I think they're severely underrepresented in the 'hood. Jim's is still around, but that formica-laden Sambo's-wannabe closes at 3PM (review: http://bit.ly/1NhE5O7). What good does that do me if I really want Joe's Special after work? That craving comes every so often, and instead of making it at home like any normal person would do since it's ridiculously simple to make, I go out to an appropriately working class diner, and it looked like Mission's Kitchen fit the bill (photo: http://bit.ly/1PectYy). It looked like the kind of spot that attracts hungover hipsters although 10PM seems early for that target clientele. It was almost empty when I entered except for a slight Asian woman in the next booth who looked like she ordered half the menu. Speaking of which, it looked like a Denny's knock-off with a Mexican twist with dishes identified in English and descriptions in Spanish. It took me a while to figure out that the $9.95 Mission Scramble was their take on Joe's Special with scrambled eggs mixed with ground beef, onions, bell peppers and cheese. It was more on the greasy side and just a tad overcooked, but it did come with a crispy flat of hash browns which to be truthful was probably what I was really craving (photo: http://bit.ly/1hcHDVM). The Mexican twist came with the choice of tortillas instead of toast for those who want to turn the dish into a burrito. I must have been in the mood to replicate the deal at the Soma Inn Cafe where you can get their Joe's Special with pancakes. So of course, I went for a $5.25 Short Stack which came dusted in a hefty amount of powdered sugar (photo: http://bit.ly/1Mt8Al2). They had maple syrup, but I was intrigued enough by the condensed milk that I poured some on. Didn't care for it as it made the hotcakes far too sweet to enjoy as a side starch. The waitress came by periodically to see how I was doing, though I noticed when a couple of their regular customers came in, their attention wavered. But I guess that's a key part of the greasy spoon experience as you have to be a regular to get the "Hiya, hon, whatcha' havin'?"-level service. FOOD - 3 stars...true diner fare in the Mission with a Mexican twist, but it falls short AMBIANCE - 2.5 stars...yep, it's a diner alright SERVICE - 2.5 stars...reasonable, not quite indifferent TOTAL - 3 stars...if you crave Joe's Special with tortillas, here ya go read more

Love this diner. Super close to 24 St/Mission and has lots of character. Most people eating there are Latinx. Food is no-frills Mexican comfort food and incredibly affordable for the area. Where else can you get brunch for less than $10? I got the Chilaquiles and loved them. The refried beans had a nice richness and depth to them. I like the sour green Chile sauce that complemented it. I ordered it spicy and it was actually quite hot! An excellent brunch dish for a hangover. Service was great. Our waiter checked in on us frequently and had a good sense of humor. read more

I've been coming here for more years than I can count. Great hole-in-the-wall in the Mission. Good food that's reasonably priced and most of the wait staff are awesome. Best time to eat here are during the weekdays. During the weekends, it's packed. read more

This place was everything you could want out of a diner experience - fast service, huge portions, great taste, and local flavor. It's also just down the street from the 24th Street BART station, making it in an ideal neighborhood to walk around and explore on any given day after your meal here. We walked in on a Sunday a little after noon for brunch. The place was bustling but we were able to immediately get a seat in the back. The demographic was pretty mixed with young people, families, and seniors. The waiters seemed to know a lot of the regulars and were having super lively conversations with everyone inside. Overall a super neighborhood-seeming spot that made you feel welcome the moment you walked in. The food itself was also a huge hit. We go the chilaquiles with refried beans and rice and the Mission Omelette with sourdough toast and hash browns. The chilquiles were topped with delicious queso blanco and the sides were a great filling side. The Mission Omelette was absolutely stuffed with ground beef, mushrooms, onions and bacon, making it almost overwhelmingly filling. Overall the portions were incredibly large and overwhelming in the best way. The price also can't be beat! For a two dish brunch including tip and tax to come out to just over $20 in San Francisco is quite amazing. We'll definitely be coming back weekend after weekend. read more

Real diner food, with a mission flavor. Perfect for breakfast or lunch; rarely busy enough to require a wait. Have had the pancakes and eggs over easy and both were well prepared and tasty. Not fancy or the fluffiest I've had, but it's perfectly possible to find poor examples of either in the city. Many Central American takes on the menu as well. The ambience is pure "greasy spoon," in the best sense - quotidian and welcoming. read more

Why are you reading this? Eat here! Best diner-style breakfast in the Mission *by far*. It's a wonderful blend of Mexican & traditional diner flavors. The bacon is crispy and tasty, omelette a packed, and the green salsa spicy and tangy. Plus everything is cheap! (for SF anyhow) I recommend the #27 omelette with green salsa and crumbled Queso Blanco. But why are you still listening to me? Eat! read more

I love this place ! Always good customer service during the breakfast hours. (Not so much for the tall latin lady who works at night. Super rude so we don't ever go at night) The Chile quiles with the red sauce is always my go to but I've had the steak and eggs which are bomb. I need to branch out and try the other delicious looking foods but I am a creature of habit if nothing else. Hopefully I'll remember to take pics and post next time I'm there. read more

This place serves breakfast all day long. We got French toast and chilaquiles. The French toast was pretty standard, great flavor and texture. The chilaquiles was probably one of the best ones I've had so far. The sauce was flavorful and they were so generous with the cheese. read more

A hidden gem! A small Mexican diner (when we walked in a man was playing music). Our waitress was really sweet and helpful.

They also offer some typical "American" breakfasts, but we did not try. read more

This is a gem. Classic, friendly and authentic Mexican food at this little diner. Great flavor. Huge portions. Wonderful service. Good diner coffee. *If you just got hired at Google and moved to The Mission last week you'll hate this old place. They don't speak hipster so simply stay away. I recommend The Little Chihuahua. I wrote a comprehensive review of the Lower Height location in 2010. Check it out. We came in on a Sunday morning around 9:00 AM and there was a booth in the window waiting for us. How nice is that? We both ordered water and coffee while we looked at our choices. # Chilaquiles: This is a simple classic with tortilla chips, eggs, and salsa. I always ask for my egg over easy, however, the classic is scrambled. Everything in this was just how it should be. Difinately give it a try. Our server checked in often and our coffee and water were always full. read more

just don't come here if you care about your health. ate here at least 6 times as it's close to my job and i need food in my system. i always get the cheese and veggie omelet . it's always drenched in oil and hash browns be falling apart, they need to use flour and egg whites so it sticks together and comes out crispy thayer than soggy and falling apart read more

I had some time to kill early on a Tuesday morning while I got my oil changed at B&W. I was hungry so I decided to take a walk and find some breakfast. I was originally going to go to Boogaloos but then happened upon Misson's Kitchen which looked clean and inexpensive so I figured I'd give it a try I sat down at the counter and ordered a frittata along with hash browns, toast and coffee. I really like that the food is all cooked right behind the counter - being able to watch it be prepared makes for a better dining experience . The service was friendly and the food was decent for the price. read more

We sat across each other in the same booth every time. The servers recognized us each visit; "More coffee?" They'd ask. He went for the mole chicken a lot. I chose different breakfast entrees every time. Huge portions for a reasonable price in the city (under $10 for most!) Highly recommended: French toast served with sliced fruit on top. Lovely bit of vitamins on decadence. We could sit here for an hour or two, talking about immigration politics, our friends' lives, or checking our iPhones for updates. Greasy spoon diner, but it had a lot of charm for us. I will always treasure the moments spent at Mission's Kitchen. read more

I have passed by this place several times before on Tuesdays before I go to Dance Mission to take hip hop dance classes. Last Tuesday after work I came here to eat for dinner. As you go inside the decor reminds of you diners in the 1970s and 1980s. I didn't want to have a heavy meal. I ordered two items: Queso Fresco and Mission Omelet. The first item is fried cheese similar to fried mozzarella sticks. It was sort of salty maybe because the cheese itself was salty. The second item omelet consisted of chorizo, mushrooms, and ground beef. What I liked about this omelet was it wasn't heavy as other omelets I've had in the past. Nothing spectacular about my meal but overall I had a fulfilling dinner. read more
