Mission Taqueria

This is a great spot for happy hour in center city, they have $3 tacos and $6 margs. The margs are strong and at happy hour they're a great deal. They also have a sangria which is my favorite and under hyped. The tacos are good and during happy hour a steal! If you go outside of happy hour this place is definitely over priced, but for $3 you can't beat it from 4-6. The tacos aren't anything crazy, they're good but you can find some more flavorful ones down in the Italian market area, I honestly think they try to do too much with the tacos and you're left with something that's decent but nothing that's revolutionary.
The service is good, and they finally got rid of a mandatory service charge and pre-applied tip which I am very glad about, we went too many times and forgot and ended up tipping double what we intended. The place is a cute spot, very hipster-cali vibes. It is quite loud but for a nice happy hour out it's a good vibe.

Very lively atmosphere. A bit too loud for my comfort. Sitting at a picnic-style table with benches (and 5 other people in my group) there was nowhere to put outerwear. It was a chilly evening, and I had no choice but to sit with my bulky coat on my lap the entire time. Our server was outstanding! Very attentive despite it being a pretty busy Wednesday night. Chips were good and served with a nice selection of dips, including traditional salsa and guacamole. The butternut squash soup was delicious, but a little too salty. The chicken tacos were spicier than I’d like, and the white rice with black beans lacked flavor, although I did enjoy the sliced avocado slices on top. Overall, I felt that for the price, I would’ve enjoyed my meal better elsewhere. But give it a try, you might like it more than I did. 🤷‍♀️

I recently visited your restaurant and wanted to share my feedback with you. While I had high expectations based on the reviews, I left feeling quite disappointed.

Let's start with the positive aspects. The ambiance of the place was really cool, and I particularly enjoyed the vibe. The bartenders were exceptional and provided great service throughout the evening. Kudos to them!

However, I have to express my disappointment with our waiter. Throughout the entire meal, they only checked on us four times. The first time was to give us water, the second time to take our order, the third time to refill our salsa, and the fourth time to give us our check. As someone who has experience as a waitress and has run a restaurant before, I understand the importance of providing attentive service to customers.

What bothered me even more was the fact that your restaurant has a policy of automatically adding a 20% gratuity. While I appreciate the intention behind it, I believe that such a policy should come with a higher level of service. Unfortunately, this was not the case during my visit.

To be honest, the food was just okay and not up to the standards I expected for a city known for its culinary scene. It is essential for a restaurant to excel in both food quality and service to stand out in such a competitive market.

Regrettably, based on my experience, I won't be returning to your restaurant. I hope this feedback helps you to improve the overall dining experience for your customers.

Mission Taqueria in Philly is a must-visit! Its location is superb, though be wary of the many stairs if you're enjoying their drinks. The shining star is the service: unmatchable and truly delightful. Their varied salsa options are also a delectable treat. Highly recommended!

Tara the manager was an absolute smoke show and so kind to us. We enjoyed playing shuffleboard, drinking margaritas. The drinks and food at this location are Fire. Menu selection is diverse and the food is worth the price and wait. Such a cool vibe. Cannot wait to return.

We came here for electic vibes and really good tacos. This is popular happy hour spot so it does tend to get busy. The vibes are great. The service is great. We ordered cocktails, guac and chips, tostada embarazada, quesabirria quesadillas to start off. Everything was good, especially the quesadillas. I loved dipping that on the consomme. Then we got 3 tacos (nuevo chicken, carnitas, and carne asada). All of them were bomb! All in all, this place gets high marks from me. Highly recommed if you want good vibes, cocktails, and some tacos.

I’ve only ever been here for lunch but it is such a great spot! So cute and the staff are always super friendly. Menu is pretty limited (the takeout menu is larger and you can order food from it when dining in) but all of the options are great and delicious!! Would be a great spot to go out to with friends

Absolutely go here. I truly cant say enough good things about this place. It's been on my list of places to try FOREVER and tonight I was hungry and walked by. I was blown away. The food, prices, and especially service were overwhelmingly amazing. I sat at the bar and Danny couldn't have been nicer. I was a bartender for years, and if I was a business owner, I'd feel incredibly lucky to have him as a part of my team. 10/10 would recommend coming here, and this is def one of my new go to spots, for sure.
