First time there, and we had a great service.

Nearly every time we’re in the area we eat here. We always love the food & the great service. We love that we can see the Mission from the indoor-outdoor patio & hear the church bells ring if we’re there at the right time of day. Highly recommend!

great service, excellent food.
