We went to Scottsdale for a vacation and a colleague recommended The Mission.   Boy did we enjoy this place!\n\nOur decision start with the Avocado Margarita and the Cucumber Jalapeno Margarita was a nice way to begin lunch!  The waiter described the Avocado Margarita as a smoothy but I found it more like a thick margarita.  Wonderful!\n\nWe had the table side traditional guacamole.  Very flavorful and quite enjoyable.\n\nWhenever I see Pozole soup on the menu, I jump on it.  Their version was very unique.  Large chunks of smoky pork was a real surprise with a more broth base than I have had elsewhere.  A unique presentation and I will remember it!\n\nWe split the Shrimp Anticuchos and the Short rib tacos.  Both were excellent.   Enough for 2 people to share.\n\nService was great, the outdoor atmosphere was wonderful.  I will be back next time I'm in town
