    The Mission Inn is a beautiful, stately and historic venue. And during the Christmas season, dining within its ornate luxury is a real treat. The Mission Inn restaurant is a peaceful and calming location to enjoy a sumptuous buffet providing delicious choices including prime rib, herbed turkey, seasoned pork and a delectable shrimp and mussel platter. We thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience. To cap it off, a stroll around the grounds after dark affords you a look at one of the largest displays of Christmas lights and decorations in the nation. It's spectacular. Include a visit to the Mission Inn on your list of "must sees." You'll be glad you did.

    This was such a disappointing experience. My parents used to go down to The Mission all the time with great memories for food and ambience. Now the only thing they have to be proud of is the ambience. The food was horrendous! We couldn’t even stay to eat. I got the Caesar salad, which was bagged lettuce salad from the grocery store for $17. The French dip came out with soaked, greasy bottom buns, and the hamburger arrived with no condiments on with the menu extremely limited. The service was questionable too, and unfortunately where valet parking used to be is now an amusement park.-small scale. The Mission Inn Restaurant used to be a very elegant  restaurant but now an expensive café for kids! I live in Dallas now and this was the number one thing I wanted to do in memory of my parents and it was such a disappointment!

    The doorman ask for our ID when we tried to enter the restaurant instead of our name. He wanted to see our conversation email. We were annoyed by this. He then ask for our name and saw us on the list for reservation. Overall it was a good experience.

    The ambiance of the Mission Inn is pleasant, but the cost of the food and extreme noise factor make for an unpleasant experience. The background noise is filled with music you cannot hear due to the voicing crowd and the constant clanging of dishes. It was impossible to have a conversation with my date without raising our voices far above normal. Whatever happened to a romantic dinner with low volume music in the background where people whispered so not to be overheard.? The quality of the overpriced food is good but the same can be had at a chain restaurant for nearly half the cost. I am at a loss to understand why people would endure all the inconveniences involved to dine at the Mission Inn Restaurant. Dennis Brantley

    Great experience 10/10 for the patio holiday light view, 10/10 service from my server Paul. We were so extremely lucky to see Santa as he walked around to greet us and taking photos with everyone. It truly was a memorable holiday meal experience.
