SYRACUSE, N.Y. — The Mission Restaurant in downtown Syracuse will be closing its doors for good after it serves customers one last time this Saturday, the owner of the nearly 21-year-old restaurant announced Tuesday on Facebook.
“After prolonged consideration, I have made the heart-breaking decision to permanently close The Mission Restaurant,” Steve Morrison, chef/owner, said in a post on the social-media site. “While the pandemic has had a huge impact on business these past months, several other factors have led me to make this difficult choice.”
He didn’t say what those factors were, but instead thanked everyone that contributed to the Mexican/Latin American restaurant’s longevity.
