North Scottsdale’s heart beats to a Latin drum at The Mission at Kierland Commons where renowned Chef Matt Carter (Zinc Bistro and Fat Ox) brings a modern twist to Latin cuisine blending influences from Spain, Mexico, Central America, and South America.

Sip a signature margarita with unique flavors such as cucumber jalepeno or aguacate (yes, we said avocado) as you watch your Tableside Guacamole made to your taste from more than a dozen fresh ingredients.

Home made tortillas, sauces, and salsas are made fresh daily to accompany an assortment of meats and seafood prepared on a Plancha or a grill using pecan and mesquite wood that instills a rich flavor. Plus save room for dessert including our pumpkin bread pudding or espresso churros.

    Enjoyed the experience over all. However, was surprised by the taco size and lack of ingredients that normally come with a street type taco. The Duck Peruvian Rice and Street corn were delicious. The margaritas were special as well.

    Although the restaurant was very busy, our server took good care of us. He was amazing! We were celebrating a birthday tonight and he brought a sparkling candle! The food was delicious, great portions, and perfect guacamole! The bread pudding is super tasty! Nice ambience. Thank you The Mission!

    We were there for lunch, arrived early and restaurant was pretty empty. Took server awhile to come to table. Had the corn and guacamole appetizers, both very good, however, no chips, just when I was looking for our server, she finally arrived with our drinks and chips. keep in mind the corn is served warm. My Cuban was not good, whatever bread they use fell apart, had to use a fork and knife, ingredients were falling out of the bread, not very tasty either. My son had the fish taco, said it was ok. Husband had the posole, very small portion, said it also was just ok. Server gave us the check, never asked if we wanted dessert. There were at least 2 birds flying around the restaurant, I like birds but not inside, not healthy. Sorry, I was really looking forward to eating here, won't be back. My son was in from Atlanta, is in the food business so I was a little embarrassed since I thought this place was popular.

    This was our first time dining at this restaurant. We had high hopes it would deliver but unfortunately the overall experience was not memorable. Upon arrive the young person looked up and didn't say anything welcoming. We gave her our name and indicated we had a reservation. She still never greeted us but handed us off to another person to seat us. So, our experience didn't start off good as you can tell. After being seated a second time because we didn't prefer our initial table the server came up to greet us and he was very nice and warm so we crossed our fingers and hoped things would improve. We order a few drinks and they where just okay, nothing to write home about. Our food arrived and it too was just okay. In fact the pork dish we got was on the sweet side and that wasn't what we expected. Anyways, I am sure most people will enjoy their dining experience here but when in Scottsdale the competition is extremely high and this place doesn't make the list for us. Enjoy

    Tacos are super hard to eat due to size of tortilla. Make them a little bigger cause they just aren’t really tacos right now imo. Service was great! Server was attentive and helpful! Nice that you have blankets cause it was freezing outside! Appreciate them for sure.

    The noise level in the restaurant was like standing next to a roaring jet engine. The light level required that we use flashlights to read the menu. The food was mediocre at best. One of our party did no to tolerate spicy foods. But the server brought her the spiciest dish. The prices are too high for what we got.

    Environment was too loud - had to repeat sentences to be understood— our table was cramped in between neighboring tables. Server spoke to us from over my left shoulder - no room to stand at the middle of the table Otherwise, good
