History

Established in 1997.

San Diego restaurateurs Fay Nakanishi, Deborah Helm and Thomas Fitzpatrick, are the trio behind the restaurants: The Mission / Mission Beach, The Mission / North Park and The Mission / SoMa. The team has had years of experience in all aspects of the restaurant business, winning numerous accolades and awards for excellence in cuisine and service. Using their varied restaurant backgrounds, in 1997 the group joined forces in the original Mission Café and Coffeehouse in Mission Beach. Chef Fay Nakanishi fine-tuned the menu and created additional unique dishes that showcase the current menu while Thomas Fitzpatrick and Deborah Helm focused on customer service. While putting an emphasis on quality food and service The Mission evolved from a coffeehouse feel to a full-scale restaurant. Polishing the concept they opened The Mission / North Park in 1998, becoming an important part of the North Park renaissance and in 2004 they opened the East Village's, The Mission/ SoMa
