I love this place! I was expecting to just get beans and rice (my standard vegan special that I…read morepiece together) but La Mission has tons of vegetarian and vegan options! My brother (vegetarian) ordered the tacos patatas and I had the kids burrito (beans, rice, guac, salsa). We also ordered the chips, salsa & guac. Everything was jam packed with flavor, freshly made, and the service was awesome. The guy working the register was really knowldgeable on the menu and was eager to share all the veg options they had. I'm not used to that kind of attention for eating veg, especially at a Mexican restaurant so that was pleasantly appreciated! Looking around, I could see there was a good mix of veg and meat eaters. It's important to note they offer quite a bit of dishes with mole which isn't a super common thing. I love the outdoor seating with heaters. This is a great place for groups and if you have kids that want to run around.

I ordered the enfrijoladas, and to start with, the presentation was terrible, not appetizing at all. It literally looked like tortillas with a few spoonfuls of beans thrown on top. And as a Mexican, I can absolutely tell when refried beans come from a can... the flavor tasted artificial and completely lacked seasoning. On top of that, the dish was supposed to come with avocado, and it didn't even have that. My husband ordered a burrito, and it was also extremely bland, flavorless, and the portions were surprisingly small for the price. It's honestly sad to see a place that used to be worth visiting now serving food with so little care, flavor, or effort in presentation and quality. I really hope they pay attention and improve, because this place is definitely not what it used to be.

The staff is friendly and food is prepared promptly after ordering. I'm obsessed with their Baja fish burrito which you can get it grilled or fried, and upgraded to a super burrito. The garlic cream sauce is addicting and tasty, plus the fish is always fresh and succulent. I also love the avocado & cilantro salsa. I honestly think about this burrito at least once a day!

I ate just enough so that I wasn't starving and left the rest. The other thing is that we waited 1 hour for 2 burritos. While there are 7-8 tables of people, I don't know why it takes 1 hour. They seem to have plenty of staff, but it takes a really long time.

I called them and they asked me to come back for a replacement. It took about five minutes, and they were very kind about it. I don't like wasting food, so they told me I could keep the original bowl. I brought it home and my daughter was very happy to eat it. Both meals ended up being great. They also gave me an agua fresca to make up for the short wait, which I really appreciated. Mistakes can happen anywhere, and what matters is how they're handled here...they take care of you. Many thanks for the quick repair.

There is a parking lot on the corner but street parking is available right out front. When you enter the restaurant you pay and find a table. Staff bring your food and drinks to you.

The food was just okay but we're also not big fans of tex-mex style cooking.

Recommended, will be back, and the food was great!…read more Sopes just might be my favorite Mexican dish, so I ordered the Sopes plate with carne asada, hot chocolate because it's been extremely chilly as of late, and a strawberry margarita. Hot and cold drinks together are the best of both worlds. It could be snowing outside and I'd still get a cold beverage. Love the clay mugs the hot chocolate came in. It kept hot while I focused on my marg. I thought I'd be able to body my plate because i was so hungry, but I ended up taking a sope home for leftovers, which was just as delicious the next day. Something really nice happened here. Apparently my margarita tasted too much like lime to who I assume is the owner, and he came by my table with another margarita on the house. That was thoughtful and something my friend and I really appreciated because who doesn't like a free drink? But seriously, it's the customer service behind serving something up to a standard that one feels confident in that really stood out. This looks like a popular spot. There were a couple people inside when I arrived, and several pick up orders. I love this area, or rather this small strip of restaurants and other stores along Solano Avenue.

The portions are ample and the value is very high - I frankly can't understand how their prices are so low given the location. The owner and his wife are lovely people as well, and I would really love to see them get their well-deserved success.

I still feel that way, but recently I reserved a table for 4 and two things really stuck in my mind negatively after spending the evening there that wanted to alert the restaurant to. I worked in restaurants for 15 years so I know not every day is your best, and that getting things right is the first priority, not schmoozing, so this isn't about friendliness. The server was fine in terms of checking up on us, but didn't engage our request for recommendations for dinner or wine; no biggie, but when the check came she a) didn't mention that the tip was included, and my generous boyfriend (who wanted to snag the card and pay quickly without letting others get a chance) would have tipped another $80 had I not gotten up from the table and asked whether tip was included. On large checks the server should tell the group immediately not to worry about calculating the tip, and still act like she is earning it by taking good care of the table, refilling wine glasses when we ordered a bottle, etc. what really got me though was when we requested -- she didn't offer-- the remaining food on the table to go, she came with two piles of boxes and put them on the edge of the table. Again, my no-fuss boyfriend said he didn't mind packing the food up, but I think if you spend $450 on a dinner they could at least offer to neatly pack the food to go. It's a chore that I want to leave at home, plus it can be messy. It annoyed me a lot that the money we spent didn't seem to be appreciated and we had to basically clean up our table at the end. Not a good service night. Can you make it a policy to at least offer to pack the food? Comal isn't that type of pandemic restaurant that drops customer service in favor of pretend hygiene, and I just wonder if the standards are slipping or it was just a one off
