This is a cool spot to stop into if you want to chill, have good vibes, and good food. The waiter, Sam, was super cool and nice. Definitely recommend
I came a cross this trendy gem while visiting, The Loop. The minute you walk in, a hostess was ready to seat you. A server was ready to take your order, but since it was my first visit, the server was helpful and I was able to order. The wait time was rather fast, and suddenly I'm biting into the freshest and spicy hot tacos. I also had their Margarita that paired well with the tacos. The ambience was warm, inviting, and pretty hip for a taco joint. Check them out next time you visit, The Loop, it's worth it!
went last night for their new late night happy hour. we got there around 9:25 and the servers were still eager to seat us and put our food in despite closing at 10. i asked about the late night happy hour which for drinks seemed to just be $3 shots and canned beers. i got french fries and pina colada and my bf got some tacos. the french fries were really really good they had a certain spice to them. as i kept eating them my mouth ended up being on fire. and not sure what the sauce was but it was super good as well. the chips were a mixture of stale and OK to eat. for anyone not familiar with the delmar loop area: it is street parking. as a girl i wouldn't go here by myself at this hour of the night. walking to the restaurant my boyfriend and i passed multiple sketch things resulting in him walking back to the car alone to come pick me up when we were finished. this street is also VERY poorly lit for how many popular attractions and shops are here
One of my favorite taco spots and a must visit whenever I'm in St. Louis. They have a wide range of options (including vegetarian) and have tacos on both corn and flour shells. I always get their chips and either salsa / guac to start and then a few tacos (ranging from 3 to 5 depending on how hungry I am - though I did get a weird look when I ordered 5 before). Service is generally pretty solid but the place does get very crowded during prime hours (and thus a bit slower). Seats are decently far apart so you can't hear other people's convos too much. It has quick food vibes vs. bougie dinner out, but it's such a solid option for some good quick food. My favorite taco by far is the portabella which has a meaty chunk of mushroom on the inside, some crunch from onion and lots of sauce. It's incredible. The fried fish is also good.
I visited this place a lot in the past. They used to have happy hour after ten which two dollar taco, now they do not have this deal anymore, which is probably why this place was not as busy on weekend night as it was in the past. We ordered tacos including my favorite Mango-Hop-Anero Shrimp tacos, Guacamole & chips, Carne Asada Fries, and Beef Birria. The food were great. The service was decent. The waitress took our orders and did check on us one time.
Came here with two girlfriends, couldn't quite decide on what to order so we ordered one of every taco on the menu and it was the best choice ever! This is an affordable way to satisfy many different people's palates and a fun way to test out the menu! Great for those who are at times indecisive like I was that night.
Always great food and drinks! Spicy Margarita is the perfect amount of spice and it's not too sweet. There are so many great options on the menu, you really can't go w
I would quickly give this place 5 stars if it just had more space!! If you are going to serve food this good you need a serious dining room! I know... it's trendy. But folks, I'm here for the FOOD! I had the Chorihuevo without a tortilla. So call it a bowl. Guys, if my wife will let me I'm coming back for supper. I'm doing it again. I've previously had their street tacos. They are the real deal. I'm not an Alcohol guy so I can't speak to that but my son in law seemed happy. All in all this is the #1 place in The Lou For street Mexican.
Lunch date with friend! Rounding up to 4 Stars. The good: Chips and guacamole: chips were fresh and guacamole was fresh with a lot of lime Baja fish taco: had it breaded, could have used a bigger piece of fish but great flavor from the sauce and queso Portobello mushroom taco: excellent even though I could have used more mushroom! The refried black been was a good base and the spicy fried onion straws were amazing Server was very nice! The "eh" Beef tinga taco: barely any tinga flavor, I actually thought it was just shedded beef or maybe pork Carne asada fries: good chunks of asada, but whole plate was dry (although it included a good portion of guacamole) Corn: didn't feel like fresh corn, more like frozen corn from Trader Joe's that they just added sauce to.

A great spot for a beer and a couple tacos before a concert! A good selection of local craft beers including a couple house beers. Tacos are ala carte, which is great because you can eat as few or as many as your tummy can handle, while still being able to function for that concert down the street at The Pageant! The BLT taco was otherworldly! They deep fry the bacon for a one of a kind taco experience. The Lobster taco was good but not worth the price tag. Go for the fish or shrimp tacos if you're looking for seafood. Bartender was very kind and attentive and made sure he was hand shaking all those specialty cocktails! The tacos came out fast ensuring you were able to eat, drink and still make that concert! read more
Stopped in for a quick beer and bite before a show at The Pageant. Very nice server seated us promptly and brought us waters. Beer menu was only available on an aggravating rotating television menu that did not stay on a screen long enough to read and took forever to cycle around. Mix that with the fact that they were out of my first 2 draft options (but still on the TV menu) and made it a time consuming beer ordering process. Order a couple of tacos and they came quickly and both options were tasty. Felt they were a little pricey for their size, but still delicious. Music was a little loud which made it hard to talk and hear the server. read more

We came in on a Sunday for lunch and we're fairly pleased with our experience. We were able to try a variety of different tacos! The menu allows for you to mix and match any amount of tacos you would like, which we really liked! One downside was that these were served family style. We had a vegan in our group, whose tacos were placed onto the same taco tray as meat and dairy tacos. Thankfully they weren't allergic to anything, as we did see how someone with potential food allergies might find this style of serving not favorable. Overall the food was decent and the pricing was very fair. read more
First off, our server was wonderful! Shoutout to Zora! She was lovely to talk to, attentive, funny and welcoming. They now offer margarita pitchers, which were tasty and gave us a good buzz. The salsa tasted fresh and had two varieties; a green spicy salsa and red smokey salsa. I went with the portobello taco and the chorizo taco. My husband got the fish taco and BBQ chicken and had dinner envy. Get the chorizo one for sure. They are dog friendly and made sure we had plenty of water for our dog. Nice place to sit out and people watch at the Loop. Food came out quick. Only drawback was my husband said one of his fish tacos tastes stale. read more
I honestly came in for their Street Corn "Off The Cob," which is really delicious. We ordered the dip trip for the table, which was decently priced. The guacamole and cheese dip was really good. For tacos, I ordered the portobello, beer battered Baja fish, and the hot fried chicken. The beer battered Baja fish wasn't as tasteful as I expected. A friend had their grilled Baja fish, and she said it was flavorful. I am not much of a mushroom fan, and I have to say I didn't mind the portobello taco. It was flavorful. We got a strawberry margarita honestly tasted like juice. It really needed more tequila. The staff was great and they brought our meals really quickly. read more

Ehhhhhh is the keyword for my review. We were looking for a spot to eat after the zoo. We found this street with a bunch of restaurants. So we parked and started walking down the street and found this taco joint and it was packed. So packed, we walked in and asked for a table for 2. There was no table so we sat at the bar. We had two awesome bartenders a young man with a Harry styles hair style and a young girl. They were awesome, quick customer service. We sat looked at the menu and ordered salsa and chips, corn fritters and 3 different tacos. Salsa one is mild one is spicy but with great flavor. The corn fritters could of used some more corn and flavor in them and more crema. Now we got the carne molida, carne asada and the pulled pork. The carne molida was okay nothing crazy. Carne asada was basic, and lacked flavor. The pulled pork was delicious but way too spicy. read more
We love coming to Mission Taco! Over the years it has gotten a bit more expensive since they stopped their Late Night Happy Hour (pre 2020), so I don't normally get their tacos anymore because of the cost, but when I heard they were doing their happy hour for their 10-year anniversary I knew I had to go! I've tried almost every taco on the menu and the ones I keep coming back to are the shrimp and portobello mushroom ones. The shrimp is the perfect balance of sweet, savory and creamy from the avocado, mango slaw, and the shrimp. Honestly, the portobello is sneaky good-- because it's all veggies I wouldn't normally go out of my way to order it, but the fried onions on top and the juiciness of the portobello with the smashed black bean combine so wonderfully it's one of my favorites on the menu! You do have to like black beans for this taco though. I personally am not a huge fan of the Carne Asada because I find it a little plain, but my friends who got it enjoyed the steak. Other notable favorites were the BBQ grilled chicken taco and the Carne Molida (must like beans). Because we were there for HH, it was pretty crowded and loud, and service was understandably a little slow, but we were able to get our $2 tacos after a bit of a wait. Pro-tip: get your tacos on flour tortillas! I realized years ago that you could do this and it made a BIG difference. read more

My family of seven stopped here on our way out of town back to Chicago. We wanted some Mexican food and a margarita! Because we were hangry we opted for our margaritas with some chips and guacamole! Our kids loved it and the chips were made fresh. My wife and I both got shrimp and chorizzo tacos. They were good, but not special. I'd love to try more options here in the future. Our kids opted for quesadillas and enjoyed them with fries. Overall, good food; great drinks, but a bit pricey for what you get. If they had fairer pricing, they'd get a 5 star review here. read more

Every time I've come to this location the service and food are great! I put our party on the yelp waitlist but there wouldn't have been a wait even if we weren't. Tacos were excellent!! If it says habanero, it will be spicy. read more

Mid. And they charge for chips and salsa. If you order guac AND salsa they'll casually forget the second basket of chips. As a group we had to ask for the chips that come with it three times before they gave us our (charged for) chips. There's still Misson taco memorabilia which is nice. And the wait is always long on weekends, so that was to be expected. Drinks are good though! read more
The literal best. My group showed up 25 people deep and no one called ahead But instead of turning us all away, they made it work and so perfectly at that. The waiters are super great and the hosts and just everyone working there are amazing. Can't wait to give them my service again with a great tip and for sure less people They are honestly some great people working there! Oh and the food is good too! The shrimp and the fish tacos are my favorite. And the strawberry agua fresca is so great. read more

Stopped by before heading to the festivities for July 4th. First time here. Recently moved from Alabama. 1 Portabella Taco 1 Spicy Chorizo 1 Mango Habanero Shrimp 1 Street Corn 1 Cilantro Rice 1 Chip & Salsa 1 Mezcal Margarita The service was efficient. We were seated quickly. Took our server a minute to come by but they were busy. We shared the sides and picked our own tacos of course lol. I like that you get more than one salsa selection. The tacos were yummy. My favorite of the three above was the portabella taco. It was flavorful and the mushrooms was cooked perfectly. The shrimp was tasty but it didn't wow me. I didn't care for the chorizo much it was just okay. The corn and the rice was delicious. We all enjoyed those. The Margarita definitely wasn't strong. The server had a hard time understanding that we were trying to order a top shelf Margarita so we gave up on that. I'd definitely go back and try again read more
The tacos were pretty good. I particularly liked the loaded crunchy veggies and topping sauces. Not very Mexican style imo, but still a really tasty style that came lighter without too much greasy juice from the meat and more texture from the toppings. The salad was the reason I took 1 star off, the avocado was not ripen... read more

I heard that Mission Taco does half priced tacos after 10pm. Is this true?
Not sure if this is still true nowadays, but they used to do $2 tacos after 10pm.
Do you offer flour tortillas for your tacos? Or is corn the only option?
We have both, made fresh every day!
Do they offer lettuce cups/wraps?
Yes, sort of, they will serve the guts of the taco on a bed of lettuce or in a small bowl. But not in a big leaf.
