This is my goto restaurant for Mexican food. Where the menu is limited everything on the menu is delicious.

Super expensive and the food was not great. Margarita wasn't the best either. Never been to a mexican joint where you had to PAY for the chips and salsa...I mean, come on man!!

Best nachos I’ve ever had. Not traditional, probably, but who cares when they’re that good? Dark, casual restaurant. I’d go back in a heartbeat.

3/15/25 Use to love this place! People would wait hours to eat there. Now its been bought out twice, and now by the Antonio owners. They do not provide quality food and it was very bland! Ordered load nachos are the chips were burnt....and they still served it to me and asked how everything was....most people like me will say it was good just not to be truthful because it won't help. Oh well! Do not love it anymore, not authentic and won't be back.
Date: Before Covid-Love this place! It's as authentic as your ever going to get in Western MA.

The food is very good but the prices are not family friendly
-Tacos (charging $6/ street taco style and no sides included) few drinks, side of rice beans, chips Salsa was $100+. Probably won’t come back because it’s hard to swallow that bill.

Mission Cantina have the best tacos! I love the tasty meats, the fresh tortillas, flavorful salsas, great drinks. Best of all is the fun atmosphere and excellent service!

Mission Cantina in the past was always our go-to restaurant for amazing food/drink. Not sure what has changed, it is now just average at best. Food and drink both were just average.

This place was my go to Mexican restaurant for years. The quality of the food, drinks, service was unmatched. They got bought out by Antonio's and now the food has gone downhill and they started using canola oil again. Before Antonio's bought them, they were proudly using exclusively avocado oil. The website has not been updated to reflect their changes to the menu. I'm very disappointed in the direction Antonio's is taking Mission and hope they correct course.

Great service and food! Small menu, but everything we ordered was fantastic and large portions! Multiple staff waited our table and were reliably asking if we needed anything else or another drink. I would absolutely dine here again!

Ordered a salad twice almost a decade ago, got bugs (plural) each time in my salad.
Various social groups I was in supported them throughout the pandemic but they really need to be more meticulous about sanitation in their kitchen.
Went last night and ordered 3 swordfish tacos, got a chunk of raw meat(looked like a piece of swordfish) that I couldn’t chew in one of my tacos, was gaslighted by the server that it’s a piece of tomato and definitely not raw meat. I know the tomato in their salsas are cut down finely to the point where there would never be a huge chunk like that. What I couldn’t chew was absolutely raw meat so I decided to finish my food and pay for my check. Tipped the server anyways and will contact the manager and update later.

First time coming here and it was incredible! Carne Asada Quesadillas were tremendous, and the entire service start to finish made my day. This place is a must if you’re looking for great Mexican food and a good vibe!
