ABOUT US

THE BEST MEXICAN IN TOUKLEY!!!

Michael’s first taste of Mexican was in the early 90's when his best friend Jim’s wife Yvette cooked him a simple Mexican Dish. From that day he endeavoured to learn and explore the culture of Mexico and pursued his travels to the colourful country.

​

The Mexicoast dream originated from his travels throughout the USA and the Baja Peninsula of Mexico back in the early 2000’s with his wife Linda. With all the great little Mexican eateries in the southern states of the USA and his first trip to Baja he became enamoured with the tastes, sounds and colours of Mexican culture. When he returned home he searched for great Mexican food but unfortunately couldn’t find much at all that even came close. So it was then the dream to open his own little Cantina.

​

In 2017 he called his lifelong best friend, Jim and his wife Yvette with the idea. Jim laughed and said “you’re an idiot.” Within 6 months the 4 of them as a team opened our first Mexicoast Cantina in Terrigal beach.

​

In Early 2020 they made the decision to shut our Terrigal restaurant and move it to their spiritual home of Toukley where they have been part of the community since the early 1970’s Bringing Mexicoast to Toukley has been one of the things they are most proud of doing as all of us have a huge love and passion for the town and the people of this wonderful community Nestled between the Tuggerah lakes and the mighty Pacific Ocean, the dream together has been to really put their love back into Toukley and the northern end of the coast and do all we can to create a vibrant and enjoyable meeting place for locals and tourists alike and for all to enjoy the wonderful food, beers, cocktails and company that Mexicoast has become synonymous for.
