Rated No. 10 restaurant so, we decided to go for breakfast. Although parking is an issue since it is one block from the beach, it was well worth it. We enjoyed a very large order of three blueberry pancakes the hash steak and potatoes with rosemary bread. While the steak was not to my liking - I prefer corn beef... More

Yuppy, but not. Interesting and eclectic for sure. The banana granola pancakes are tasty and beautiful.

Went for breakfast with my family. Long line (usually a good sign) that moved quickly. The bright and fresh interior was packed, but not crowded. The Mission has a varied menu with a lot of options. Service was prompt and friendly. Food had ample portions, top-notch presentation, and even better taste. Only regret is that we did not find this... More

Went for a brunch with a friend. They were super packed but were were lucky to to find a table quickly. Numerous options for Breakfast. The two of us shared CHICKEN APPLE SAUSAGE & EGGS and BLUEBERRY PANCAKES and that was so much food that we had to literally drag ourselves out. Excellent food that was very tastefully presented. Great... More

Eat here three times while renting a nearby beach house. Twice for breakfast and once for lunch. Every time it was amazing! First i tried the cinnamon bread french toast with scrambled eggs and bacon. The cinnamon bread itself was awesome but make it into french toast and it's ooff the charts. The twice smoked bacon was prefectly smokey and... More

Everything you want from breakfast in SoCal. Decadent options like Mission French Toast, healthier options like Strawberry Granola Pancakes (with house-made granola), South of the Border influences like Sweet Corn Tamales with Eggs and Roasted Tomatillo Sauce, Gluten-Free options and Soy options. They even have Zen on the menu. And what about the Roast Beef Hash and Eggs with Rosemary... More

This is a great place to eat breakfast. The meals are healthy and taste good!! Be there early or be prepared to wait a long time! The coffee bar is really good! Mexican Coffee is my favorite! The portions are big so children can share with adults. If in PB this is a must for breakfast!!

My wife and I ate here our first morning in San Diego, in Mission Beach. We knew we were in the right place when we saw people waiting outside. It took us 10 minutes to get a table and when we got inside I was told the french toast was a favorite. My wife ordered banana pancakes. The portions were... More

Very loud, huge portions. Good service. Eggs served cold but quickly swapped out. Monster pancakes although my blueberry cornmeal pancake would have benefitted from more blueberries as it was on the dry side. Killer home fries. Fine place.
