Nice place in downtown-ish San Diego we stopped before heading to the airport.Sunday morning around 11, Service was super friendly, a little slow sometimes but Sundays are crazy. Skipped over us a few times.The food was good, the coffee was very good. Nice cappuccino.We had chilaquiles, tamales and pancakes. All were pretty good, certainly not the best we’ve had of any of the three but all high level and done well.Parking is pretty tough had to find a spot 2-3 blocks away. Which is fine.Overall we would definitely come back.

Extraordinary to have breakfast and be quite satisfied. The service is very standard (don't expect something extraordinary), the atmosphere is very serious and does not invite you to stay for long. It is quite accessible per person

great atmosphere and high quality food with good portions.
Food was great and served quickly. Had a great coffee to go with my Bannana Carmel French toast. The flavor was great, my only "complaint" is that it was more of a bread pudding consistency vs French toast... either way it was good, just not what I expected. Also wish they had sides that came with breakfast, had to add them a la carte.

The Mission in East Village is a quaint spot on J Street in the East Village. Parking is really difficult in the area as there is primarily only street parking available. We stopped in on a weekday for a late brunch and there were only a few other tables while we were there. We were greeted cheerily by the staff as we walked in and the service overall was prompt and friendly throughout our meal. We ordered a Chorizo Mission Omelette and a Tortilla Soup to share. The thought of jalapeños, chipotle crema, tomato and jack cheese with the chorizo had us really looking forward to a spicy delectable omelette but we found it a bit bland so that was a disappointment. We added plenty of hot sauce to spice it up a bit. The Tortilla Soup was super fresh and tasty and we highly recommend that and would order it again. As for atmosphere, I would probably recommend sitting inside to avoid the potential homeless encounters in the area. Definitely a solid brunch spot with excellent service.

The Mission honestly had great food quality and quantity! The pricing was great! We had the Portuguese linguica and the chilaquiles.The Portuguese linguica paired nicely with a spicy bloody
This place was listed in a top 10 places for brunch in San Diego, we were close by and decided to give a try. If you are very hungry and want to enjoy 5lb of mashed/roasted potatoes dumped in your plate, then this is your place.

We had a reservation and when we checked in we were told it was a 20 minute wait. What? I'm less than a few seconds the manager turned around and said -well seat you in just a moment and about two minutes later they did. That was the only glitch. Server was great and the doors was very good. Even though they were h busy it was a nice exlerince.
