La Mission: Authentic Mexican Sandwiches & Breakfast Delights

I came here on a whim and I liked it. The food was good and generous portions. They mainly have outdoor seating and limited indoor seating. Very friendly staff and a nice chill vibe with families and couples.

Drove by this place for years but never came in until this week. We loved our experience here: I had tacos 2 kinds and my husband had a burrito. Friendly staff took our order and we sat outside on picnic benches in the sun in a pretty setting. We will be back-there is more to try!

The absolute BEST Mexican food I have ever had. The plantains in the black bean sauce was so incredible. If you haven't been here before, it is a absolute must try Mexican Restaurant.

Friendly and helpful staff. I ordered the grilled fish taco and it was just the right amount of food. This was my first time eating at LA Mission and I look forward to returning again soon...maybe tonight when Im in Berkeley!

Delicious tasting Mexican food with a lovely patio in the back. Prices are a little more expensive than other Mexican places but they do have quality food. Recommend going to try their breakfast menu!

Great food and will definitely come back. In particular their chips and guacamole are delicious, crispy tacos and plantains are good and their horchata is delicious. I agree they have they have the best mole but they skimp on adding the sauce to their burritos and flautas. Both were a little dry and there was so little mole sauce I couldn’t fully appreciate its taste. Plus it would have made all the difference in enjoying both these dishes. I asked for more mole for the flautas.

La Mission has excellent Mexican food with big portions. You would never know from looking at it because it looks like a fast food Mexican restaurant that has been renovated, in fact, long ago, it used to be other places. I wish they had more seating inside, there’s only enough room for maybe 10 people, and outside is usually too cold in Berkeley to go and hang out. But there is a lot of outdoor seating if the weather is decent. While everything I’ve had here has been good, the Baja fish taco might be my favorite. The posole is also good, but the portion is so huge. I felt like it was enough for five people. I wish the inside of the restaurant or a little bit warmer, but on the other hand, it stays open later than almost any place else around that has decent food.

This is a MEXICAN restaurant. The very kindest and nicest service. The food is just way off the high end of the charts. The atmosphere... Fantastic. 6/5. Across the board. They have a chocolate horchata that is the best I have ever had.
