The Mission Square Italian Restaurant

A group of coworkers were brought here by a prospective contractor while visiting their factory. I was a little nervous when I realized that it was basically sharing a building with a few small law offices and the like. But I was wrong. The patio section we sat in was incredibly comfortable and foot traffic was directed away from diners. This might be more of an issue at lunchtime, but I can't speak to that. Despite looking a little cramped, the patio is cleverly arranged to make plenty of space for diners and servers to move around. The staff was professional and friendly, and were attentive without interrupting or getting in the way. And the food. This is probably one of the best Italian places I've ever been. I had a scallop and pasta dish that was light and flavorful because of good ingredients and expert preparation. The seafood was super fresh, probably caught that morning. Everybody finished their meal- there wasn't anything left on a single plate. And the portions were

Service was very good. We had dinner in the courtyard and it was very nice. Large menu w many items to choose from. Good wine list. Reasonable corkage. We will visit again.

Great atmosphere but foods come slow. It took 45 minute for two appetizers, one of them went wrong. It is now one hour and a half passed at this point of writing. Didnt think of this long duration of dinner. If you have plenty of time to desperately kill, this is the place. Foods taste okay, they are edible but no characters.
