For our main dishes, we had the steak fajitas and the burrito, both were packed with flavor and cooked to perfection. The drinks were excellent too, especially the red sangria, which was refreshing and well-balanced.
To top it all off, the desserts were incredible. The churros were freshly made with great dipping sauces, and the tres leches with a touch of marshmallow on top was sensational—such a unique twist on a classic!
The service was outstanding, everyone was warm, attentive, and genuinely friendly. And the ambiance? Absolutely beautiful. I can’t wait to go back!
The tacos are not presented on the menu as street tacos, so I was expecting a more substantial portion. Instead, the tacos were extremely small – more like taquitos – and the serving size was disappointing, especially at this price point. The rice and beans, which cost extra here, are included at most other Mexican restaurants I visit, and they were bland and lacking in flavor. The steak in the carne asada was chewy and under-seasoned, and overall the plate was void of the bold flavors I expect from good Mexican food.
The food and atmosphere felt like an Americanized version of Mexican cuisine rather than something authentic. The tacos were only offered on flour tortillas with no corn option, and the flour tortillas were stiff by design instead of soft and pliable. For $34, I can get a much more flavorful meal and better value at my favorite Mexican spot farther down Main Street in Holly Springs, with excellent service and bigger portions.
I was also surprised that the tequila selection displayed at the bar was fairly minimal; with a name like “Paloma Tequila & Tacos,” I expected a more extensive and interesting lineup of tequilas.
Woodstock’s Mexican restaurant scene is changing with this new addition and another one on the way. For a long time I’ve said a good Mexican restaurant with a vibrant atmosphere is needed in downtown Woodstock, and I’m still waiting for that void to be filled. I might give Paloma one more try in the future, but based on this visit, it fell short on both flavor and value.
My drink had interesting flavors and was sweet. It did not have any strength to it at all (there were only maybe two or three swallows that had a hint of tequila). The carnitas tacos had fantastic homemade looking corn tortillas; however, there wasn’t much to fill them (half of it was mashed beans and like a tablespoon of pork so you didn’t get much flavor).
The cheese dip was some sort of different cheese; our friend’s son who only eats cheese dip at other places refused to eat it. More chunky and Parmesan tasting than typical, not necessarily bad, just different. The chips were really greasy. Salsa is a green salsa with mild spice. The enchiladas were fine but smaller than you’d find at other places, the rice was good, and the black beans had a bit of a different taste.
Our friends said the fajitas were just ok, they wouldn’t get them again. Their daughter said the fish sticks tasted weird. I personally felt like maybe they use some interesting oil or something.
As another person noted, I think most places have huge portions that are too much for a person and I don’t need huge portions (after chips I personally could barely eat two tacos). But there is a perception that’s not matched when the prices are the same as the places with large portions and you get the three tiny street tacos with no sides. The portions seem right for what we should be eating, but it’s different than elsewhere.

So excited this place is finally open and can’t wait to come back. The food and drinks were delicious, and the friendly service and ambiance of the restaurant takes it to the next level. Definitely recommend checking this one out!
I ordered enchiladas and the rice and beans were a nice hot temperature but the inside of the enchiladas was warm at best. It tasted like they pre-cooked and shredded the chicken, then kept it in the fridge until they added it to the corn tortillas. The outside of the enchiladas was hot but the barely-warm contents made it a less than ideal experience. The enchiladas were also very small compared to where I’ve eaten elsewhere.
Those in my party that ordered alcoholic drinks were happy with the quality, so I’d recommend this place for drinks and service but not for food.
