We love this place, service is great . Food is delicious but most of all the view is beautiful.

Great food and venue

Absolutely wonderful!

Service was great! Vanessa was my server. Food was really good and fresh.

Anniversary dinner

Turkey sandwich not so tasty, but all else very good.

Food was very good and our waiter was very nice and provided great service.

Food was just OK. Not great. Service was great. Place is very pretty, clean and inviting.

We had a fabulous lunch. Service was perfect. Our waiter was superior. Food delicious and presentation beautiful.

Great ambiance and seating under the patio cover.

Went here for dinner with my family in remembrance and honor of my grandmother who recently passed and this was her favorite restaurant, especially the holiday buffets. Everyone and everything was absolutely perfect and amazing. We had a lovely evening as a family and I owe a huge thank you to the manager/supervisor working that evening as well as our server for just going above and beyond. I can’t thank you all enough for how special you made that evening for my Mom and our family. Your level of care and kindness will always be remembered and deeply appreciated.

We had a large party of 21 guests and they accommodated all of us in a nice private area with a chandelier over the table. It was perfect for my Mom's 75th birthday dinner. Most folks had either Salmon or Steak. They were were both delicious. However, what made the night was the outstanding service we received from Hector. We highly recommend this place.

We waited for 1.5hr for our food. My mom was disappointed. It was her bday. :(

Wah, waaahhh. What a huge disappointment on soooo many levels. But first let's get one thing out of the way: the dining room itself is gorgeous...stunning...exquisite...beyond compare. Was it worth $115.00 (basic lunch for four, no drinks) to sit in that room with horrible (almost nonexistent) service and eat just-ok and unimaginative food? Well only once. And I've done it so you don't need to. Don't get me wrong--the food was ok. But an $18 French dip sandwich needs to be far, far more than ok. It needs to be elevated and memorable. Ditto my husband's meh chicken burger, the supposedly-famous chicken tortilla soup, and our friend's average turkey club. Just overall sooo disappointing. And did I mention the (almost nonexistent) service? Seriously, our server disappeared for endless periods of time. Oh...and the maitre'd had the audacity to tell us we could only use the table for 90 minutes because they were so busy. Yeah...no they weren't. After 90 minutes the place was mostly empty and we sat as long as we liked...which actually wasn't long as, even with few people, the room is incredibly loud. If you're keen to experience this historic place (and visually, it is a GEM), do yourself a favor and wander through the hotel lobby...maybe have a cocktail at the bar. But you'll have a better meal elsewhere. You're welcome.

It was lovely for little lunch. It's a little dark but still very nice and the food was delicious

Everything about the Mission Inn and their restaurants live up to our expectations. We’re never disappointed.

Perfect. Loved it. Wonderful atmosphere... great architecture surrounding you on the patio... warm hearted service... lovely food.

Beautiful restaurant. Ambiance is great. Nice and relaxing. We were happy to finally experience this restaurant. BUT…..

Service was BAD!!! The food took an hour and 10 minutes to come out since the time we ordered. Server was bad and did not check on us. When she did she had a bad attitude. When we finally got our food, she said they were closed and started cleaning all around us.

For being such a beautiful and expensive restaurant it had terrible service. Disappointing!

Had a great brunch on the beautiful patio! Can’t wait to come back to try the dinner menu!

Overall a Great experience in Dining. Loved the Mediterranean Lamb‼️ Server was very Pleasant😊 Had some annoying flies buzzing around...Maybe you can put some Citronella candles on each table, to wart off bugs👍🏼 I hate flies landing on my food.

Simply Phenomenal as always . Mission inn
Is 5 stars & rich in historical events

Wish I can rate higher! The best place by far for romantic quiet dinner. Dinner was top notch, Hector was the best waiter and he deserves high tip! Btw, we did tip him well. We will definitely come back regularly, only with Hector being as our waiter.

Wonderful experience for a Family lunch gathering

Very cute location, food was okay.

The food was good but the service lacked.

Good communication prior to artival (text told me our table was ready early) and we were seated promptly with no wait. Server introducen himself promptly and was attentive. Food well prepared and presentation was nice. Cant beat the ambiance of tjis hostoric old hotel. Beautiful. Will come again.

We ate outside in the courtyard near the fountain for the calming ambiance and lovely architecture, which we always enjoy. Food and beverages are spectacular. Service is excellent; friendly servers always accommodate with great attitudes.
A little pricey, but it IS The Mission Inn after all.

Wonderful lunch on the patio with coworkers celebrating retirement! From the atmosphere, beautiful weather, excellent service and delicious food, it was a very special day. So glad we went to the Mission Inn!

my sister and i took my brother here for breakfast on his birthday - we’ve lived in riverside our entire lives but had never been here so we decided to take him for his birthday and he found 2 hairs in his breakfast burrito. he didn’t want to say anything but i had to let the waiter know. the waiter was very apologetic and accidents happens but it was still disgusting. we took him out for dinner after his breakfast was ruined. safe to say we will not return.

Relative get-together

The fruits were fresh and the quality of the food was great!

We were looking to have a nice dinner with friends and saw a chance to dine at the Mission Inn. We weren’t disappointed! It was an amazing experience, wonderful service( Geraldo took very good care of us!) great food and lovely ambiance. We were truly pleasantly surprised and will definitely plan to come back soon!

Great food, great service, great atmosphere. Our server was very helpful. The valet service was quick and courteous. The restaurant and hotel are beautiful inside and out. Thank you for helping us celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary. This was our third visit and we expect to return again and again. Can’t wait for the Christmas decorations to go up. Thanks again.

The food to extremely to long to come out.. even after complimentary beverages were offered after we were noticed. I still had to ask where our dessert was. So disappointed.

Although we had reservations for 9am, we had to wait for our table 15 minutes.
The buffet was not great. The selections were poor. And some of the plates I picked up were dirty.
Our waiter was ok to start, but service fell off as they got busier.

We had a great time. We were celebrating our mom's birthday. She enjoyed herself greatly.

Our dinner was very nice and we enjoyed our meal and ambiance ... The Creme brulee dessert was cold...as thought it had been made ahead of time and refrigerated...Creme brulee should be served fresh made and at room temperature.

It is an exquisite setting! It is a favorite place of ours to get delicious food and feel like we have been transposed to Spain. It truly is a very special place to dine and enjoy.

The place is stunning! The menu selection could be better. We ordered a bunch of appts, the taste was okay. But the mimosas and ambiance just took the cake. It was a pleasure just being out.

The atmosphere, food and drinks were Great. Hector, our server was Super Excellent. Hector is a very friendly and extremely nice person. He is very knowledgeable of the entire food, and drink menu and makes you feel at home and greets you with a smile. I had the Lamb Chops and potatoes and others had the Salmon with rice, both delicious and very tasty. The drinks were great too. I have dined at Mission Inn multiple times in the past 10 years and Hector is Always my Go To Guy for Superb Service each and every time. A Great time always!
