The Mission

I’ve gotten sick every time I’ve eaten there. I was told the only thing that was unsafe on their gluten free menu was the French toast since it shared the batter. But last time we sat on the patio and I ordered the GF grilled bread and he was like “well that’s not safe because it’s grilled where the normal bread is grilled” and said that a lot of things are shared in the kitchen. I always wondered why I got sick when the other waitress we usually have said they take great care but I kept getting sick 😫

Ate here once, told them i was GF and either they gave me the regular bread or it was cross contaminated because I felt SO sick afterwards. I told them I was allergic so this should not have happened. If you eat here, make sure and ask repeatedly that you’re getting the GF bread option !!

Celiac friendly?

No

They were just ok and luckily I didn’t get sick. I told the waiter I had celiac and his attitude was like “uh huh ok...so what’s your order?” Not very attentive. They have a gluten free menu but there’s a risk of cross contamination. I only ate here once. I wouldn’t recommend it. The food was also just ok. Nothing to write home to mom about

The food is delicious, but I've had a reaction all three times I've dined here.

Celiac friendly?

No

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Gluten-free friendly, but not celiac friendly. Same cutting surfaces and grill. I appreciate that the gluten free menu states the kitchen is not gluten free. Upon further questions I'm not comfortable that the handling of food is a safe for someone with celiac. if only gluten intolerant, it's probably just fine.

Celiac friendly?

No

What a great place to eat! They were so knowledgeable and the food was great, especially the cinnamon bread.

We stopped in on a busy Saturday morning, before heading to the zoo. Got seated right away and service was pretty quick. The food was amazing, my 8 year old took one bite of the rosemary potatoes and asked to come back everyday on this vacation. The homemade gf rosemary bread was amazing. I am super sensitive and had no problems at all. They have a gf menu and make their own breads every morning, and lots of options. Highly recommended and we will be back!!

Great gluten free menu and very helpful staff. I had the BLT and it was fantastic. We had lunch on Saturday and this place gets very busy. 30 min wait for a table and about another 20 min before getting the food. Well worth it.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Rosemary gf bread is great! Do not get the GF French toast. They use the same batter as the regular bread.

I usually get the Rosemary off the GF menu, with eggs over hard instead of scrambled. The rosemary potatoes are really good, and always have lots of crispy bits. The GF rosemary bread is phenomenal!!!! There is a gf french toast option, which I haven't yet tried, but I wish you could get gf pancakes here!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Amazing! I love this place! The rosemary potatoes are OFF THE HOOK good and the GF rosemary bread with blackberry jam... I over-ate here more than once because it was just so good. Scrambled eggs are fluffy and need no ketchup - so yum. Try an iced Thai coffee if you're looking for a drink - yum!

This place has a great GF menu and Bridget was so helpful and accommodating with all my allergy questions!

Celiac friendly?

Amazing gluten free breads! So good I thought I had gotten the "regular bread. Luckily, it was gluten free (and delicious).

Incredible gluten free food, lots of delicious breakfast and lunch items, very good gluten free bread.

My family and I were in the area to visit my brother and his family, and we needed a place that was safe to eat while everyone else ate pizza. We made the trek down to The Mission from Belmont Park and it was so worth it! The people working there were so wonderful and careful, there was a surprisingly extensive gluten free menu, and the food tasted great and was very filling. We now want to travel back down to San Diego just to eat at The Mission again! As always, be sure to ask that the kitchen staff be as careful as possible with your food, and they will be sure to!

Good menu choices. I had the eggs and great breakfast potatoes. They make gf bread in house. They serve French toast but use the same batter as regular so I said no to that.

Hands down best gf toast I have had maybe ever. Cute place with Mexican breakfast!
