Great Wednesday night work related meal! Nice, basic Mexican food. We shared nachos, which were fairly pedestrian but the soft tacos were lovely. Three each. We had prawn, pork and squid, pumpkin and black bean versions. Very nice! Desserts were exceptional. My beloved had panacotta with fairy floss and toffee, I had the peanut butter caramel milkshake! Loved the food.
Really great place for some food!
The service by the waitresses was warm and friendly.
My wife and I had the banquet and it was a very filling meal!
Great Tacos. The beef brisket was delicious.
Pretty good waiting times for food- although we did come early before the main dinner rush.
Would definitely recommend to friends and return myself.
Delicious, cheap food and relatively vegetarian/vegan friendly- there are two options in soft tacos/a quesadilla/one main course/range of entrees and desserts available. Highly recommend the black bean soft tacos. Lovely service but beware and clarify twice if you don't want cheese/want something vegan.
Great food and service, will deff be back to try some other dishes. Dessert was also delicious and good prices too. Can't wait to try again soon
Amazing! Come here with my partner and has some of the best Mexican food. I ordered the Parma which was an amazing and the wedges were delicious, Will be back!
Love that tacos. The prawn and chorizo and sweet potato fries are easily my favourite. I have eaten at this restaurant numerous times and it never disappoints.
Awesome tacos!. Frickin amazing tacos and great selection of mexican beers, definitely hit this place up.. Maybe a tad pricey tho, if they brought it down to an even $5 a taco I'd be happy with that.
Great every day restaurant with quality food and good staff

Mexican with a difference.. I LOVE my Mexican cuisine. If you are a fan too, then make sure you get down to Mojo Mama. Don't expect stodgy cheesy dishes though. Mojo Mama offers up tasty food that has a delightful freshness and spicy hit.
It really was different to a lot of the Mexican cuisine i have had previously. It was a nice change. Don't get me wrong, i do love my cheesy Mexican, but the Mexican i had at Mojo Mama's was incredibly tasty. Fresh clean flavors and nice hints of spice were packed into every offering. The servings although generous, are probably not as large as some of the Mexican dishes offered elsewhere. But having said that i was satisfied and did not feel hungry afterwards.
Mojo Mama is a great option for Lunch or Dinner. Great modern atmosphere, and Service was excellent. The menu perhaps was a little limited, but I was happy with the selections offered. I enjoyed my meal and look forward to eating there again soon. Give Mojo Mama a try, I'm sure you will not be disappointed.
It's great Geelong has a Mexican street food restaurant! Hopefully this place can improve so people will keep going back for years to come. I love the tacos, however most of the other food I've tried is very average or below. Food seems to be a bit hit or miss too. The place lacks atmosphere, largely due to the decor; there's just been no effort to make it great. Most of the staff lack enthusiasm too. Hopefully it improves!!
This place rocks. Food is amazing, staff are getting it together. Fresh tasty mexican feats.

Great menu ideas, good execution, but service and timeliness needs sharpening. It's fantastic that Geelong finally has a restaurant that serves fresh and well-cooked Mexican food. Having visited several times now, we've tried most of the menu items and have enjoyed the majority of their offerings, however it's clear that Mojo Mama are feeling the pressure of bigger dinner services.
Firstly the food - the prawn and chorizo taco, the beef taco and the pork taco are the three to try. Soft breads filled with tender meat and crunchy slaws or salads and dressings - you can fault them on a warm night. The chicken taco is dry and cold, and the squid needed more pieces within it.
The brisket main is well seasoned, melt-in-your-mouth and falls apart with a touch of the fork. Served in a pool of rich, spicy Mexican-jus(?), crispy chat potatoes, fresh salsa and a wad of chipotle butter that melts atop the beef. This main is well worth the $24! The pork belly is similar in texture, one visit had a crispy crackling but the next visit was soggy however the frijoles and salsa were perfectly matched with it. Their sweet potato fries with jalepeno mayo are great, nachos even better, and street corn is a must! But the plain chips and salsa are underwhelming.
The quesadillas are good but not that filling - order a side or entree+dessert... Oh and their desserts are spot on! Loved the special ice creams they serve but their crepes are delicious too.
Tip: choose a quieter night to dine here
To the staff/management: ensure that you're well staffed to ensure positive service experiences
Wow! Finally some decent Mexican food in Geelong!. I can't believe there are bad reviews about the food here (disgruntled fans of other Mexican eateries perhaps?) but the food here blew my socks off! *Finally* the kind of Mexican food I've been desperate for in Geelong for so long.
I will admit that the service isn't as good as the food, but wow.... The food! (The service could be improved by wait staff that were just a little more on the ball).
We had the banquet and for the price, it was amazing. The starter of corn chips/salsa was basic but delicious, the tacos were perfect (I could have eaten a dozen of those bad boys...) and the main - I chose the braised brisket (with crunchy yet soft-in-the-middle potatoes) - perfection. After the corn ice cream, we were stuffed to the gills but my dining partner and I cannot recommend it enough. Fresh, vibrant and delicious.
So close yet so far. Mojo mama is so close to being amazing, I think they just have a few teething issues they still have to work out as they are still so new!!
Food was yummy ( street corn is a must try) although when busy can be very slow.
Wait staff very helpful with a some what confusing menu for someone who doesn't understand most of the items!
The biggest downfall for me was we were STILL waiting for our drinks after we had almost finished our corn chips and they were ordered as soon as we sat down.
Short staffed maybe that night?? they all looked like they were running around frantically!!
So close guys, I think it can only get better as time goes on!!
Can't stop thinking about those tacos!. My Friends and I went to Mojo Mama on the weekend and were delighted to find a great fresh menu. I had three tacos, the best was the pork but they were all delicious! My friend who is gluten intolerant was so happy to find just about everything on the menu was gluten free. All in all a great night with delicious food!
Love it! The food is fresh and delish! The combinations in the tacos are an explosion in your mouth! Yum! I've always been too full to try the popcorn icecream...one day I will because it looks awesome! My advise to people who want hard shell tacos and nachos...stay home and make them yourself! These flavours are 1000 times better than that deep fried crap smothered in cheese
Loved the food! Especially the pork taco. Service was ok and didn't have to wait long. Definitely will be back.
Great food- strange interior. First impressions of Mojo Mama were a bit odd- the restaurant interior doesn't reflect Mexican street food at all. It felt a bit like a pub bistro.
The food was great though. reasonably large servings for the prices and it was fast despite the restaurant being full.
The beef brisket was spot on with a really rich sauce. The tacos were also really tasty but unfortunately the tortillas they use go super soggy and fall apart.
Sweet potato fries were awesome as well.
Friendly service too.
For all the food we tried we were really happy with the bill. Definitely an affordable night out.
Good tacos and good service but some of the rest of the menu needs work
Mexican Food with Modern Touch
Tried this place since I was craving for Mexican food. The restaurant wasn’t busy when we walked in. The staff was friendly and helped us deciding since we weren’t too sure what to order. The food came out hot and well presented. It did taste pretty good.
They have nice beer collection to choose from.
Overall it was a nice experience.
Wow really tasty! First we thought it's quite pricey but the plates are a lot bigger then the usual Mexican sharing plate-size...
Really delicious with a lot of flavours and filling
Best Mexican food in Geelong.. by far! Other restaurants aren't even close!
Fantastic restaurant with a big menu that caters for all (Mexican) tastes. You can go big, small or share. Very reasonably priced. Everything tastes delicious. A really good drinks menu with a lot of varieties I hadn't come across before. Perfect for bigger groups as it has long tables and also caters for kids, which is a bonus, including colouring in and kids menu. Staff are friendly and accommodating. We have come here a few times now and would happily recommend to anyone coming to Geelong. It is a spot you don't want to miss.
This was a little gem of a find. It is relaxed dining with great specials. The food is tasty and not drowned in cheese as some mexican restaurants can be. I went on a Wednesday enchilada night $20 for a beer and a lovely meal, you can't go wrong but do get a starter to shair. I will be back to try more of the menu
