Had the seafood boil - hearty meal for 4 men!! Beautiful balance of flavours. Lemon infused butter with hints of chilli with yum crabs, prawns xxl plus other treats! Great service! An absolute gem.

We just spent the last 6 months travelling Mexico and were very excited to find Casa Mexico in Pukekohe. Seriously delicious and authentic Mexican street tacos!! Highly recommend the pork carnitas and chicken tacos. Can’t wait to go back!! Service Dine in Meal type Lunch Price per person $10–20 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
I have been to casa Mexico or had it delivered many times. Can pretty much recommend the whole menu except the seafood boil as I have had that yet, I’m too addicted to the birra brisket tacos. Always had a tasty meal and never had any problems arise. The staff there are always so friendly and found the food to come out in a very reasonable time frame even though it has been busy. Definitely will keep eating here and at this rate once a week 😂 Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person $30–40 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes Nachos

Pretty average place unfortunately. Food is presented beautifully but lacks ingredients and flavour. I ordered the Birria ramen, hardly any meat, corriander and I don't no where the cheese went. The tomatoe broth in it taste like a cheap tomatoe soup. Unfortunately I was very disappointed with it especially when it cost $20!. Seafood boil was abit better, the butter sauce does have a sour tang to it though which I found weird as I haven't had one that's tasted like this before. Kids had nachos, there pretty plain too. Meal type Lunch Price per person $40–50
Loud music makes it difficult to communicate. Possibly why they have screens to order food. I hate them. It's much better to order face to face, not from a dumb screen. The food portions were very small. Then, get given 3 loose plates wrapped separately in foil to carry out. A bag would be nice. The taste was okay. it could be a bit spicier, especially the chicken.

The experience here was terrible and very disappointed. We ordered and 120$ seafood boil Mardigra, and the food wasn’t as good as what we were expected. Most of the crabs were still raw. The mussels was really hard and chewy to eat. The prawns was still dirty. And the most sad part was that the eggs and the corns were missing. Definitely wasn’t worth 120$ even know the sauce was good. Food: 1 Service: 2 Atmosphere: 2

Fun decor and excellent food. Loved the street tacos and enchiladas. Highly recommend. Service Dine in Meal type Lunch Price per person $10–20 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
Had the nachos, the consome and 2 birria tacos. The nachos where really nothing fascinating, not much flavor to them, felt like some spice was missing. The consome was good, but kind of sweet to my expectations. The best part where the birria tacos, even though they are dipped in the consome sauce, they are good as they are crunchy and juicy at the same time. From personal experience some salt at the table was missing and the Mexican food is not something that will leave your jaw dropped. Haven't tried the American style food they offer, might be better.

Staff had no idea what was going. Only 2 kids there. AC wasn’t working and the place was sweltering. Tables weren’t getting cleared very quickly so loads of flies. We ordered the guac , salsa and corn chips. No salsa. And the guac was very strange. Green something. I doubt very much it had avocado in it The 3 quesadillas we ordered took almost 30 mins. Only 2 turned up And the were tasteless. The vege one had tinned re fried beans and cheese. Cmon it’s the middle of summer. Where is the corn ? Mexican staple. The chipotle chicken was beans, cheese and sprinkling of chicken. No spice at all, soggy and never to be ordered again. I’m 100% for supporting local but come on! This is a joke. This is the furtherest from Mexican food you will ever get. Avoid!! Service Dine in Price per person $40–50 Food: 1 Service: 1 Atmosphere: 1
Started our Casa Mexico experience off with the guacamole + salsa and tortilla chips, not the best start as the portions didn’t reflect the price for an entree. The guac was poor but the salsa was fresh and tasty along with the tortilla chips. My partner and I had our main meal, brisket burrito and brisket quesadilla with a consommé to share. Wow- all I can say, was a well balanced meal from the taste of the brisket across both meals to the consomme, left us satisfied and wanting more. The staff however kept interactions small and short, a simile and a bit of enthusiasm always goes well in my opinion in any conversation, also to be asked how the meals were does too. Definitely room for improvement, but not a bad experience also. Will make a venture back at some point in the near future to see if things get better. Also maybe $4 for a can of coke and be rectified too. Food: 4 Service: 3 Atmosphere: 3
