Great server suggested we split two different burgers. So sweet took our picture since we were celebrating husband birthday. Good happy hour wine and beer. Lovely time. Nice place.
Right by the beach. The servers were friendly and available for drink refills. Live music too. We'll definitely be back.
Great experience as always. We were a party of 13 and they were amazing. Fast and friendly and food way beyond expectations. Love the sliders!!
We love Mission Bar & Grill! We especially loved it when there were more Asian inspired dishes offered (hint hint:). That said, our meals were fine this time but not outstanding. I write this more for Mission to take into consideration but still highly recommend the restaurant to everyone!! Especially if you like whiskey as it is known for its variety of offerings. As to the food......the Brussel sprouts were light and lovely with our favorite sweet & spicy ginger glaze and cooked perfectly (not piled high with extra sweet and fattening additions). The salmon sliders were a bit overpowered by the sauce (and we like spicy, so it's not that it was too spicy) so there was little detectible salmon flavor, nor could we discern the fried capers (which were the selling point for us!).....but the crunchy cucumber was a great addition! The fried chicken salad was fresh and beautiful and the chicken was delicious with a perfect amount of crunch, but there wasn't a lot of flavor in the honey mustard dressing. I think some type of piquant avocado/citrus/cilantro/(jalapeño?) dressing might be a better match with the rest of the ingredients. Drinks were great as always. Entertainment was excellent......you can never go wrong with Dulaney & Co!! Sound level was perfect for the band, though I heard the night before (featuring a different band) that it was SO loud that people couldn't hear themselves think, let alone talk. We have witnessed that as well in the past so I was really happy to see they kept the sound at a reasonable decibel level for Dulany & Co. I would definitely check the entertainment schedule before you go if you plan to carry on any meaningful conversations. :-) Anyway, as I said, we love Mission Bar & Grill and we will be back!! Thank you for another great evening with friends!
Food tasted previously frozen and not so great. Like you can taste the seed oils now and later. Good service and drinks.
One of our favorite “go to” places. Our server was by herself and she commanded the room. It was busy and she killed it.!
Fantastic food! I always go by the reviews and did not disappoint! One in our party described the chicken sandwich as “the best he's ever eaten and I've eaten a lot of them!”
We came for brunch. The enchiladas were truly some of the best I've ever had. Great enchiladas with red sauce, and exceptional beans and rice on the side. The service was friendly and attentive. Highly recommend.
Great food, super fresh. Staff was so accommodating (one celiac, one crohns customer and it can be difficult!) We loved our dinner there!!
The ONLY displeasure is small amount of fries & not super hot. Our waitress was awesome. It was too cold in the restaurant I can't wait to go back!

Our server was as usual... excellent! From the gentleman greeting, our service and yet another delightful conversation with Greta the owner
We went during a non-busy time on a weekday. Service was efficient and friendly! Definitely will come back!
Mission Ave Bar & Grill is everything you'd want from a casual restaurant and more. The bartender and server were terrific, the venue was very open and airy (no walls/windows dividing the outdoor space from indoors), there were tv's all around showing different Saturday games, and the menu had something for everyone. Not only that, but the food was great! We were a party of 8 plus a 6mo old in a high chair, and they were very accommodating. Oh, and how awesome that the whole place is dog-friendly... score! I would go back in a heartbeat. Thanks Jordan for taking great care of us!
There were six of us for dinner so there was a wide range of palates to please. We ordered appetizers, mains & desserts, along with beers & soft drinks. I checked loud because we sat outside during “rush hour”. Your experience at other times may be different. Our waiter was great. He took the time to explain the nuances of beers and dishes. The drinks & orders arrived quickly and efficiently. All six of us gave Mission Avenue not only a big thumbs up but also five stars. Go. Eat. Enjoy. Especially with friends!
Good place for brunch. The enchiladas and eggs were delicious. Service was excellent, mimosas a little pricey compared to other local restaurants, but still worth the experience.
