Mission on the Bay Reviews

Good food definitely slightly overpriced, haddock tacos were really good, i got mine baked not fried. Good to go there just for a few drinks also.

Sat upstairs, great view, great atmosphere. Our server was great, friendly and good at what he does. Food was tasty, would go again.

Great atmosphere, great views, food was really good. Great burger and fish tacos. Drinks are too expensive, I asked for a house Chardonnay and it was $17

We were there at 5pm on a Saturday. Just not what we expected. Service was slow. Our server was polite and friendly but after 15 minutes our first drink came just after our appetizers. We were hoping to enjoy the outside, deck dining experience. It just seemed that the service was struggling and the wait staff and the bar couldn't keep up and there were not many customers there? Bathroom had trash over flowing and at $8 for a beer and $13 for a Mai Tai I expected better service. At those prices even with the view you are going to have to pick up your game since there are a lot of cheaper alternatives. We ordered an appetizer a drink and left. Couldn't bear the wait

Beautiful view across the water to downtown Boston. Staff very friendly. Excellent oysters on the half shell, yummy lobster roll. The shrimp and chorizo appetizer was delish. Clam chowder was good but a bit too heavy on the bacon overshadowed the delicacy of the clams. Had to wait quite a while for a draft cider then was told they had to change the keg then they didn't have another keg so got last 1/3 of a glass after about a 20 min wait. The staff did a good job of cleaning tables chairs and floors in between guests. Overall nice experience, definitely higher end pricing.

Visited this Restaurant once again recently, I can say it's a gem here. The Chef here has an awesome and diverse menu, You can tell they don't cut corners with the quality of food. I can say in confidence I have never had a bad experience here. 10/10 ! Cannot wait to comeback!

The positives are lovely restaurant, great bar, great service, excellent mussel starter. The negatives the shrimp and broccoli pasta was a bit bland and I expected shrimp that were grilled. Instead the shrimp were good just not grilled. The chocolate brownie sundae was more cake than brownie. There was not enough ice cream but it wasn't very good ice cream so maybe that is a positive. There was way too much whipped cream and marshmallow. Just a bit sad the meal started off great and the rest didn't live up to my expectations.

Visiting the Boston area and my god what a great lobster roll. Coleslaw was nothing too write home about but who writes home about coleslaw. Great views and friendly staff.

This place is worth the visit! Our visits were for brunch, dinner and take out.

Menu is well appointed and simply amazing - whether you want something light or a juicy steak you will not be disappointed. I personally prefer light dinner w/drinks so my go to here is either a salad or sushi. Grilled chicken tacos are delicious as well; spicy rolls and combos are great.

In terms of service staff is polite and responsive. Service/kitchen can be slow on a Friday/Saturday night but that is to be expected.

The 4 star review is largely based on our latest dinning experience. It felt like the server was either absent or rushing us. It was for sure a busy night. We decided to speak up instead of keeping the feedback for later and he owned up to it. Could have been a 2 stars but he came back to us to apologize and said he appreciated the feedback - this helped him slow down and offer us a better experience.

I think we ve forgotten what it s really like for restaurants to be busy since the pandemic began and I am sure everyone here at this restaurant will find their rhythm in the coming weeks.

One suggestion: upgrading the tables/chairs indoors - the interior is wonderful but those scratched and wobbly tables need to go!

The food was good. But. No place to park. Only street parking. If you can find it. It's better to take the bus.
