“Best Food in San Diego!!”
Their soy chorizo is fantastic. Sundays are great, but expect a line. Totally worth the wait.

“Great Food, Friendly Service”
I have been a patron of the Mission for years, and the food has always been reliably great. The staff is friendly and upbeat. Plenty of free parking is available just south of the university. I prefer visiting for weekday breakfast; on weekends, the line stretches out the door. Isn't that typical of the best places?

“hearty fun healthy food”
Unpretentious, clean, and filling food with many options, including vegetarian. The menu hasn't changed in ages and could use some specials, but finishing their pancakes is an achievement.
