Rating: 4.6/5 [delivery] We were looking for a vegan dinner spot for Friday Lent and came across Mission Burger on Postmates. Everything is 100% vegan, the photos looked great, and the reviews were stellar, so we decided to give it a try. The food took an hour to arrive, but it was well worth the wait! This is some of the best vegan food we've had. I was blown away by how they replicated the texture and taste of real meat in the Impossible carne asada and mushroom-based brisket. They also didn't skimp on portions, leaving us completely satisfied. The Crunchwrap ($18.95): Impossible carne asada, house-made queso, crispy tostada shell, pico de gallo, shredded lettuce, guacamole, and sour cream. This was a massive, heavy crunchwrap--similar to Taco Bell's but bigger and better. The queso was a bit too liquidy, making it a messy eat, but it was incredibly filling; I could only finish half. Smoked Brisket Burger - Classic ($19.95): Double Impossible patty with smoky provolone, house-smoked brisket (made from mushrooms), BBQ sauce, mayonnaise, pickles, and crispy fried onions. The brisket was unreal--meaty with a texture more like steak than brisket. Regardless, the burger was phenomenal and didn't need any extra sauce. The flavors were spot on. Garlic Fries ($8.95): Fries tossed in olive oil, garlic, and parsley. Unfortunately, these were the only letdown. The fries lacked crunch and were bland without the garlic bits. We didn't finish them and plan to air fry them for our next meal. Overall, Mission Burger exceeded our expectations. We'll definitely be ordering again!
Consider me a fan!! I love everything about this venue.. the food was amazing. I got a complimentary cookie. The staff were very welcoming and the burger?? To die for.. it had so many great flavors and textures. I wish I lived in town to eat here regularly!
This is by FAR my favorite vegan spot every time I visit Austin! Thank you so much for the amazing food, free cookie, friendly vibes & for taking the time & energy to making us the best vegan brisket we've ever had! 10/10 you have to try it
I ordered the brisket sandwich, it was amazing. I'm looking forward to trying out more items on their menu at the new location. The owner, Michael, is so friendly and sweet. I certainly recommend the restaurant to any vegetarian looking for great quality food and exceptional service.
This place is awesome! A lot of places now have a veggie or vegan burger option on the menu, and they're just fine. I didn't realize this place is ALL vegan, so they really know how to do the burger right and make you not miss a beef burger. That's big for me as someone who recently started eating plant based. The service was also really great. Michael was kind and nice to talk to, and offered me help as a first time customer. They also give you a free chocolate chip cookie when you order! The burger was a classic super messy very filling double cheeseburger. The onion rings were cooked perfectly. The meal + tip was actually pretty pricy. Almost $30, which didn't include a drink because you have to buy one from the convenience store side. Overall, I recommend trying this place and bringing non-vegans too. They won't be disappointed! The menu has a lot of variety too, so there is a lot to try. I'll be back for sure.
This place truly is a bomb! I became vegetarian two years ago, and it was hard to find a good food vegetarian/vegan burgers. Mission burger hits the spot for sure! My husband and I ordered -mission burger with grilled onion -chicken bacon ranch sandwich -side of garlic fries All the items we got were amazing. The burgers were juicy and they were so flavorful! The staff here is awesome as well. She was so kind, as we walked in, she greeted us with a warm chocolate chip cookies. And she also explained the menu and recommendation very well to us as it was our first timing coming here. 10/10 recommended this place if you are looking for a good vegan burgers! Well if you are looking for a good burger in general! It's inside of the River City Market, so there are not lots of tables for sit down meal, but they pack everything in a paper bag so you can take it to go easily. Oh and the burger wrapper made it so easy to eat! It can get pretty messy to eat a burger, but their wrapper prevented my burger from disassembling completely! It's the little things that matter, if you know what I mean! Anyhow, if you are in the search of good burger, come to mission burger! You will not be disappointed!
Twas first time coming by here! Welcome by a friendly staff and she gave us a cookie !! Delicious vegan cookie with crispy outside and subtly soft inside! While we were looking at the menu, the friendly lady explained which ones are good and popular ones so we took her recommendations! The mission burger is apparently go to one if you don't know what to get as it's the most popular one there! My wife got it and it was very delicious! You put the info into kiosk and you can accommodate the toppings like grill onions instead of raw one etc! I like their style! I got a chicken bacon one and it was good but I prefer mission burger for me! Also we got a box of garlic fries and the lady gave us sweet garlic mustard sauce! Quite yummy combo! Overall, we had a great experience and definitely love to be back here! Keep up the good and healthy work! Cheers
Tried this place after seeing it all over my reels and in the Uber Eats app. It's an all vegan restaurant inside River city market, and they have weekly specials. As a vegetarian I never thought I would be able to try a birria taco and they have it so well. It tastes so flavorful and texturally seems like the closest substitute to meat. Normally I'm not a fan of fake meat but the birria and the consommé were so flavorful that I couldn't stop eating it. If I had one flaw, it would generally be that melted vegan cheese has a much rubberier texture than regular cheese so I wasn't as big of the fan of the vegan cheese in there.
Everything here is vegetarian or vegan, but the menu has much to offer. The Reuben is HUGE and certainly satisfied my craving for that type sandwich (which I haven't had for years). The burgers are really good, too. The patties are thin, which is why a "double meat" burger is not so big you can't eat it all. The restaurant is inside of a convenience store, so you can buy your chips -- if you prefer them over fries -- and sodas or beer right there. My meal was very tasty and I'll definitely go back.
