Here's what LoveFood had to say about the best Mexican restaurant in the entire state:

"The first Mission Taco Joint opened in St. Louis' Delmar Loop in 2013 — and its fresh, bold flavors proved so popular that there are now several locations across the state. The restaurant takes inspiration from the Mexican-style cuisine of California (where owners and brothers Jason and Adam Tilford grew up), and diners love its breezy West Coast ambience. Dishes like Baja fish tacos keep customers coming back for more, while the 'corn off the cob,' served with garlic-lime mayo and queso fresco, is legendary."
