Okay, confession as I type this review I am now craving their chips n salsa and fajitas. Servings are huge. I have never had a bad experience or meal here. Whether I am there for a business lunch when near Soulard or there for date night the service is always great and the food superior to any other of its kind in St Louis. This is a must visit when in the downtown or Soulard area and you are visiting. And more than worth the drive in from the suburbs!!

Could not get enough of this place. The tacos were creative, unique and delicious...as were the cocktails and house-made sodas. It was so good, we went back three times during the course of our stay. Interestingly, the waitstaff were always warm, friendly and helpful. But, the same cannot be said for the hostesses. On all three occasions, the hostesses (all different) confronted our party about "not following the rules." One got on to us for being seated outside by a waiter who was standing by the tables..."you have to come inside and see me first!", another told us we could not sit outside (though there were 4 picnic tables unoccupied) until we told here it was outside or gone, and the final one never showed up to the stand after almost 10 minutes and then got on to us for going outside to sit at one of the numerous unoccupied tables. But, don't let this deter you...because the food is incredible and once you get past the gatekeepers, the rest of the staff of amazingly friendly and accommodating. Since the interaction with the hostesses was a minimal part, I am giving 5 stars.

Just outside of downtown Saint Louis in historic Soulard, Mission Taco Joint serves up Mexi-Cali street food, local beer and craft cocktails.

This would be an easy place to eat with a group having a variety of dietary preferences and restrictions. On a Thursday night around 630 there was a thirty minute wait but it went by fast. They do offer online ordering. The drinks were great and generous. Very affordable. Would definitely return.
