Reviews for Mission Taco Joint - East Crossroads in Kansas City, MO

Pretty sub par for Mexican food kind of disappointing, didn't have much flavor overpriced for a torta. No entrees come with... sides so that's what we're gonna grab you with extra money. The fact that you put California burrito on there and it's a veganoption is a disgrace to all California burritos, California burrito consist of carne asada French fries cheese and pico de gallo Read more

This place has some awesome tacos! There is a wide variety to choose from. One thing I will say is that almost all the tacos... have at least one slightly to moderately spicy ingredient, so if you aren't into spice then you'll want to pay close attentionto what you're ordering. Simplicity also isn't a priority here, so if you're looking for traditional street tacos then thismight not be the place for you. All that being said, the tacos are super good! I wish we'd tried some other menu items but thiswas just a quick lunch. There were several vegetarian, vegan, and gluten free options. The service was excellent too! Thehostess seemed like she'd rather be anywhere else but that's my only complaint. We'll definitely be back! Read more

First time stopping in. Will not be the last!! Returned for another visit. Had some different tacos this time, and tried the... corn bites. Delicious! Read more

A friend of mine brought me dinner tonight from Mission Taco joint. It was no more than a 10 minute drive to my location. When I... opened up my food, my two tacos were sitting in a disgusting pool of grease. My friend said that that was the exact conditionthe tacos were in when she left the restaurant, and she even mentioned something to the staff who didn?t seem to care one bit. Iwill never go back.

We ordered 4 tacos: carne asada, mango habanero, Yucatan pork, and hot fried chicken. They were annihilated immediately after... the photo. Our server was super awesome too. Highly recommend. Read more

A spot doing solid tacos any day of the week. A nice large interior with plenty of seating inside and out as well as a nice bar... pouring some crazy good margaritas and cocktails. A good packed menu offering plenty off mix and match tacos for anybodys tastewith some nice accompanying appetizers. Very friendly staff plus plenty of parking out back so bring a friend bring a date bringsomeone for tacos. Read more

The atmosphere is neat, but the food is mediocre at best. We were drinking at the breweries around the restaurant so it is a... conveniently located restaurant when you need something to eat. The spicy margarita was mostly sour mix which was a bummer. Read more

Mission Taco Joint remains one of the best places in Downtown to grab a burrito and margarita at 9:00 on a weeknight (the... kitchen stays open later on the weekends, to midnight). Simple dips are complimented by a thicker, slightly darker corn chipdesigned to stand up without breaking. I appreciate that they don't over salt the fare here, because the portions are such thatif they did, you'd walk out with a headache. Plus, you're going to want to save your salt allotment for one of their excellenthouse-made margaritas. Despite a broad yet excellently prepared list of tacos, the real entree star might be the burritos, allof which come with generous portions of your preferred protein (including plant-based meat as a default on one burrito and anavailable substitution on any of them). I recommend the South Cali for a lighter burrito, or the Brah-rito if you haven't eatenall day. Be aware that the stage sometimes plays host to a variety of local music acts, some more successful than others, socall ahead if what you're looking for is a quieter night out or a date night. Thanks to the new nearby lots, parking is nolonger nearly the concern at once was here, but if you're super concerned or in a rush, curbside pickup and takeout are bothavailable. Read more
