Was User at La Mission a mag?
This place is absolutely incredible! They offer an impressive variety of vegetarian options too! The mole is truly out of this world; I’ve only tasted one that was better in Mexico City. The table salsas are fantastic—full of flavor and genuinely spicy. They also have heated outdoor seating, which is a nice touch. I'm really disappointed that I don't live in the same city as this wonderful and delicious restaurant. View all feedback.

What Avi K dislikes about La Mission:
The flautas were drenched in guacamole and sour cream, but no amount could mask the dryness of the shredded meat inside! The tortilla soup, which I had previously enjoyed much more, tasted off this time. It was saltier, but even worse than the saltiness, it had a slight bitterness—likely due to an excessive use of oregano. View all feedback.
