Great for creative cocktails

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.

The guacamole was so fresh. Tasted great with the chips. Ask for chips straight out of the fryer because those pair so well. Server was more of a helicopter parent than anything. Duck empanadas were decent. Price of the food compared to the quality of the food was mediocre. Wait to be seated took 10 minutes when there was no one in the restaurant.

The food at the Mission in Scottsdale is sooooo good! We got table side guac service from Sam the Man (we dubbed him that because he was so adorable). Our waitress suggested a mocktail since we weren't drinking and that too was so good. Loved their chicken tacos, steak tacos, chips, salsa...and even the holiday decorations. Such a wonderful evening. Go, treat yourself!

The food was below average. It was very saucy, unnecessarily. Many competing and unnecessary sauces per dish adding calories, sodium and sugar and drowning the flavor of the food. Would you like some food with your buffet of sauces? Portions were very small for the price. Service lacked. The wait for every request was long. Ambience was exceptional. Drinks were good.

Duck empanadas, skewered shrimp appetizer and scallop entrees were unbelievably delicious, all with unique spices and sauces. I will probably want to eat here every week.

Guac and salsa was very good. Empanadas and carnitas tacos were very sweet with odd maple syrup taste. Would not recommend- odd flavors.

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!
