We tried Mezkla on 8th Street in Holland recently, and it was one of those meals where everything…read morejust lined up. I had the steak quesadilla. My wife had the shrimp tacos. Both were excellent. The guacamole was fresh, bright, and clearly made with care. Nothing felt like an afterthought. What stood out most was the experience. The chef came out to check on our dinner personally. That kind of attention tells you something about the people behind the food. Mezkla sits right near the new theater strip on West 8th, and they're already expanding their dining room. Growth like that doesn't happen by accident. It happens when the food is good, the service is genuine, and people keep coming back. If you're in the mood for excellent Mexican cuisine in Holland, give Mezkla a serious look. We'll be back.

Bland, bland, bland food. Decent service. Nice ambiance…read more Ordered chips and salsa, nopales tacos, potato tacos, and the Jamaican Hibiscus agua fresca. The chips and salsa were decent enough, the agua fresca was so cloyingly sweet that it was pretty much undrinkable, and the nopales and potato tacos were utterly tasteless. The food came out fast and the waitress was at once brisk, brusque and efficient. The patio area was nice to sit out on during a pleasant summer evening. We were glad we did not sit indoors--the outdoor seating was one of the few good things about the experience. The restroom was clean. Two stars because there were quite a few vegan options and because Taco Tuesday was good value for money. Was overall however quite disappointed and will certainly not return.

There was quite a line and certainly a testimony to their following. I ordered the Sampler Trio that gets you one of each of their tacos (steak, pork, and veggie - beans and corn) and pineapple and pork fried rice, 3 steak and cheese tacos, and a couple extra because the girl at the register made it seem like they were small. They were a decent size and very flavorful. My husband and I agree some of the best tacos we have had. The sauces were also excellent as was the rice. I will certainly get them again and highly recommend. Prices are reasonable and the staff was on point I was worried that my order was messed up but they got it!

It was nice and cold, with the expiration date on the bottle. Quesa birria tacos were good. Came with avocado, lime, onion, cilantro. Sauce was great, bits of meat inside, good heat, good crunch.

Many parking spaces. Ordering Online - unfortunately the link from Yelp opened a sketchy website. Once I went to their site from Google, I ordered. It was simple with many categories - birria has their own category if you are looking for a quesabirria, birria taco, or birria pizza. Inside - We were greeted by a host with the biggest smile with menus in his hand and asked if we were dining in for two. It is a little darker inside due to the furniture used. I have not personally ate inside but Order - We ordered a steak quesadilla, Carne Asada taco, birria taco, and a regular sized horchata. The birria taco was 7/10, it could have used more of the birria sauce. Horchata: 10/10. I ordered the regular sized for $3.99, and was $3.00+ more for a large. Steak quesadilla had a nice crisp to the shell. Came with chips and salsa. Carne asada taco looked good but got a bit messy when I unraveled it from the tinfoil.

With that, the burrito I order broke apart after the first bite so maybe try to grill/tightly pack it but the nachos, tamales, beans, and rice were delicious!

The two waiters have been our best experience while the waitresses seem more interested in talking with each other rather than servicing their tables. It was so bad this time, we were seated and nobody came to take our drink or food order. I finally waived down a waiter to help us. I would think with food of this caliber, this restaurant would be packed all the time. But with service this inconsistent is likely holding them back. Hopefully the manager will see this and do some training.
