Love this place. Great atmosphere and great food. The sangria is awesome. Definitely a place to try if you are downtown
Had an absolutely incredible dinner at The Mission last night (9/15/16). Our server Doug was one of the best server's we're ever had. Period. And we travel and dine in restaurants multiple times per week. Doug made wonderful recommendations about the menu, presented the specials in detail and with enthusiasm. He anticipated what we needed before we even asked and made our experience wonderful. Not to mention the food was absolutely delicious. The soup of the day was amazing and everything was fresh and beautifully presented. Will come back more often now.
I love the Steve Mo! Great ambience, great vibe, great food, and great attentive service from Miss Jess.
If you hafta go to church on Sunday? Go to The Mission for brunch in the sanctuary of Yummiosity.
I thought the whole concept was fantastic! Great vibe when we walked in off the street into a cool Mexican villa, with great authentic food, friendly and cool servers (Liz), and good music and drinks. My kids loved it and so did my wife and I. The mole sauce was my favorite. Thanks for making our first visit to Syracuse memorable. My 12 year old son led us there on his phone on foot!
The owner is the chef and he prepares wonderful dishes. It’s always presented beautifully as well. Great atmosphere!
I'll keep it simple. I've been a faithful customer over 10 years....my absolute favorite is beef burrito with black beans and papaya habanero salsa. Love the food, love the owner Steve �
Great food. Cool atmosphere and great service. A definite “must try”.

The Mission Restaurant is 5 out of 5 for atmosphere and a 3 out of 5 for food. It is a beautifully recreation of a Mexican restaurant and Mission INSIDE an old Church. The service was excellent and out waitress was great with our 8 and 11 year-old children and very accommodating.
The food in general was a 3 out of 5. The standout dish was my son's puerco pibil burrito. The flavor was spot on with what we had in the Yucatan. The achiote taste to the pork was exactly what you would expect from a Yucatan dish.
We also had the Carne Asada and fish tacos. Both of which were good but not great. They both tasted like what a person who never traveled THOUGHT the dishes should taste like but only followed a recipe. Both were good dishes but only passable.
On the downside was my wife's the margarita. It was just about the worst margarita we've ever had. It tasted like a margarita mix that was not mixed correctly with the top much of the concentrate and very little tequila.
All in all, I would recommend going to The Mission Restaurant for the ambiance, service and the puerco pibil... Maybe for a date night...
You'll pay for every little add-on and there are no complimentary chips & salsa... However, everything was delicious and you can tell it was made with fresh ingredients. Overall, would definitely recommend! Extremely good. Nice Syracuse spot.
Great little place! They have a brunch menu on Sunday. Had the sweet potato chorizo hash. It was awesome! They won an award for that dish in 2018. If you need a accessible entrance, go to the left if you are standing in front of the building.
The restaurant is just opposite Columbus circle and hard to miss. The internal decoration is very warm and will shift your mindset. The menu is quite good to select some delicacies and price wise pocket friendly. A must visit for anyone visiting Syracuse.
Beautiful place and surrounding! The ambiance and food were great! Dress for a night out.
I enjoyed their Carne Asada in Mushrooms & Demi Glaze,
The Mrs. had the Pork Shoulder although the previous Chipotle butter Steak was Phenomenal!!!
I hope they bring it back as well as their Fried Avocado...
High quality food, big portions, great service, and it’s in an old church, what more can you ask for?
Server was a bit disorganized and didn't know with menu selections we're available. Burritos and salad we're delicious, will be back.
Excellent food. Tortilla soup was so different than any other. The homemade salsa with their own green sauce was amazing. Waitress was so well informed about the restuarant and it's food. The authenticity of the church was also incredible. Not from the area, but will go back when in town.
Did you ever hear of a Mojito made with a wine based alcohol? I was skeptical but the Mission does not have a liquor license so the drink selection was limited. It was EXCELLENT!!!!!!!
We went there for brunch and were not disappointed. From the amazing place to the great food, we had a blast. Good mimosas, we all loved our food, our waiter was nice and we felt like we were back in Santa Barbara for a minute. A restaurant in an old church? Amazing. And it gets better when you walk in. Don’t hesitate.
Bar tender doesn’t pay attention to the customers to busy trying to fill orders from the seating area and her phone. All food was delicious. The server we had was very good and did a great job. For a small menu they have the turnover time should be better. Saw one one the cooks tasting food with his fingers and that grossed me out glad it wasn’t mine
“Our favorite family dinner!!”
Every time we go to Lemongrass, it is excellent! The food is always fresh with lots of seafood options, creative specials & nice size potions! The restaurant does an excellent job with gluten free options as well. Service is always great and reservations are managed very well. Can't wait to go back!
