Tonight, I visited this restaurant based on a recommendation. Upon arrival, there was no host at the entrance, so I seated myself at the bar. After sitting for about 15 - 20 minutes, I had yet to be acknowledged by the bartender, despite the bar not being overly busy. I was not greeted and ultimately had to ask if I could place an order. After ordering, I was not provided silverware or napkins and had to request them. Overall, I felt unseen and like an inconvenience rather than a guest. I chose to place my order to go so I could enjoy it back at my hotel; however, when I arrived, the order was incorrect, prompting me to write this review. That said, the tacos were absolutely amazing and were the highlight of the experience.

We came in here on a late night. They had a DJ upstairs who was playing everything the servers were good. We had Maddie she was amazing. I don’t remember the other folks names, but they were very attentive of making sure that everyone had everything that they needed or wanted it. We asked the DJ for a few request and he played them. That was cool. The chicken wings were fire 🔥 they didn’t close till three. I think we left about 2 AM. It was a night to remember.

We held an after-party at Mission and the staff there, Charlie, in particular, were all extremely helpful. They were great about communicating via email and greeted us as we arrived & then escorted us to our reserved space. The food and drinks are great and the relaxed and fun atmosphere was just what we were looking for. Definitely recommend planning your next event with Mission!

I recently visited Mission Navy Yard and had an enjoyable experience. The restaurant has a lively, energetic vibe. Great for groups too, as the upstairs is huge. They also have a balcony seating The staff were courteous, friendly, and helpful and attentive. Loved the Tex-Mex: tacos, enchiladas, and shared appetizers were good too. The salad is also delicious and better the. I expected. The layout / space is generous: multiple bar zones, indoor and outdoor areas, and event-capable rooms. Restrooms upstairs are a little hard to see with only red lights. Just take your phone and you can use the light to see. Chip’s and salsa were delicious too!

Ashley and Mia were wonderful! I'm vegan and not too many places by the ballpark have good food that can meet my dietary restrictions. Mission served it up! Delicious food! Margaritas were absolutely refreshing with a bit of attitude! Don't worry, they tailor the attitude to suit your needs 😉 Wonderful atmosphere and service! Put this place as must go!
