    Our waiter was lovely and food was delicious however we were the only people in the restaurant. I hope they get a bit busier. Parking was safe and easy.

    Great food and great vibes! Having been a regular at the Mexicola Hout Bay spot, it’s awesome to see the team replicating their success and atmosphere in Woodstock!

    Really good, tasty Mexican food! The restaurant is very new, I’m certain when the word spreads and it gets busier it will have a great vibe. Good value on Taco Tuesday! We tried four different tacos, the croquettas and the street corn - all superb. Service excellent :)

    The ambience is incredible – vibrant yet relaxed, with such a warm and welcoming vibe. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with genuine smiles and fantastic energy from the staff. It’s the kind of place that makes you feel like you belong there. Now, let’s talk about the food – absolutely phenomenal. Every dish we tried was bursting with flavor, clearly made with care and the freshest ingredients. You can taste the love in the cooking – it’s wholesome, rich, and deeply satisfying. It’s rare to find a place that gets everything right – atmosphere, service, and food – but Mexicola truly does. We’re so grateful for the memories made here and will definitely be back whenever we’re in the area again. Highly recommended to anyone looking for a feel-good, flavor-packed dining experience!

    What a delightful experience we had dining at Mexicola in Woodstock, I have visited the Hout Bay store many times and have been very excited to try their new store, we'll let me tell you it did not disappoint the food was exceptional and the new venue has a wonderful authentic vibrant feel. The staff as so friendly and welcoming! Tyler the owner really makes you feel at home. I loved it so much I'm going back for my birthday! Well done to the team. Outstanding!
