I recently had lunch at Mission Rock Cafe and came away VERY impressed with this waterfront restaurant. My friend and I dined on the outdoors deck overlooking the bay with a pristine view of rustic old ships nearby. The setting was very pleasant with sweeping views of the bay and eastbay foothills. Since I am both a sports fan and a person who loves dining on the water, it was a double treat as some vantage points at the restaurant provides views into AT&T ballpark. Trying to be more health conscious in my eating habits, I have made it almost routine to order the veggie burger whenever it appears on a menu (for lunches at least). In that regard, I have tried many so feel I know my way around a good veggie burger and I can DEFINITELY say, Mission Rock has an outstanding one. They are made fresh on site, so no frozen, out of the box ones here. On this rare occasion, we went for the dessert of freshbaked brownie topped with fresh strawberries and whipped cream. I think I said, 'ok, just one more bite' about 10 times, trying to be good but before long, it was gone. The service was excellent...friendly and no long waits...what more can you ask for. I highly recommend the Mission Rock Cafe. Check it out.
