I went here the other day for lunch. It was the first time visiting a Holé Molé and I can say that I'll be back! I tried a handful of different items, like the fried fish taco, grilled shrimp taco, crunchy chicken taco and el pastor flour taco plate. The fish and shrimp tacos were my favorites by far. This location was quaint and well maintained and the staff was very kind.

Small cute place that serves big flavor! Wow, I did not expect this place to be this good. I paid 6.29 for the mini plate which included one Baja Fish taco one smoked brisket beans and a yellow chili. The flavor in the two tacos was amazing. I ordered a shrimp taco on the side and that was the best! The price was a steal. We will definitely be driving back just to eat here.! Had Flanquirtos for desert which was fried flan. It was good, but I will definitely be trying the fried ice cream next time. They were patient with us as I wasn't sure how to order and the service was helpful!

I really wanted to try the brisket here and the crunchy tacos caught my attention. So I ordered the Roasarita Smoked Brisket and the Carnitas Crunchy Tacos. I'm sorry, but with the Roasarita, I felt like they was just throwing anything on a tortilla. Brisket, raw onions, guacamole, beans, cilantro, and add a bed of tortilla chips. Entirely too much going on. The Crunchy Carnitas Tacos were good minus the "special sauce" that I didn't even knew came on it. I'd go back for the Crunchy Tacos minus the sauce, but idk if I want to experiment and try anything else. Especially if it's just random ingredients thrown in a tortilla.

Ensenada Fish Tacos , Ensenada Shrimp Taco, and a Large Hortchata.
Brandyn C.

I came here yesterday and the food was so good I had to come back the very next day! What was even better , day two just so happened to be Taco Tuesday! I got an Ensenada Fish and an Ensenada Shrimp Taco. They were by far the best fish and shrimp tacos I have ever eaten! I washed the tacos down a delicious horchata! When I walked in I was greeted by the hospitable staff! Restaurant was clean and cozy! This is a hidden gem! You won't be disappointed, trust me , come here NOW! I will definitely be back ASAP!

Fish and shrimp taco combo meals

10/10 I love this place! If you're looking for good shrimp and fish tacos make sure you stop by here! They're the best fish tacos in the area. Food comes in big portions. They give you plenty of rice, beans, and chips with your combo. The horchata is also really delicious! Staff is always very friendly and helpful with the menu. There's tables to sit inside and outside. It's always very clean and cool inside.

Brisket Taco
James A.

Came here for their brisket tacos, which were as good as ever. Hole Mole has been a mainstay chain in the fast casual Mexican food arena, serving Mexican fast food classics throughout SoCal. This Long Beach location on the corner of E 4th St. and Almond was converted to Hole Smokes, a new concept focusing on Texas BBQ blended with the original Mexican menu. With the opening of a dedicated Hole Smokes in Costa Mesa earlier this year, this location reverted back to being a Hole Mole, but still kept some of it's brisket items on the menu. There is a dedicated parking lot that never gets full, and some outdoor seating next to the restaurant. The smell of smoked brisket was in the air as we walked in. It is a fast casual set-up inside, where you order and pay for your food and then wait if carry-out or sit down where they will deliver it to you once ready. I just wanted one thing, which were the brisket tacos ($2.79)....had tried other things on the menu before, and they were just OK...the brisket tacos are unique in its price and just being rare in SoCal. These are street taco sizes, but were overflowing with meat. It is simply dressed with sliced (not diced) white onions and a bit of cilantro. The brisket in itself is very good, smokey and tender, but cut up into squares (not quite chopped but not sliced as the best brisket tacos one would find in TX). Just the quantity of meat you get vs how much you pay for each taco, makes this a great place to go if you love smoked brisket. The tacos get cheaper if ordered on Taco Tuesday ($1.99). They no longer sell brisket by the pound (you would need to go to the Hole Smokes in Costa Mesa for that...along with other BBQ staples)...but for 6 tacos, I'm pretty sure we got at least 1/2 worth of brisket. As just brisket, IS IT the best we've had in Cali?...No...but for the price, it's an absolute winner...and frankly I'm surprised they are able to keep that price that low.

Receipt

We went to this location because it had the higher rating than the others. We placed our order and while waiting, a mouse ran from the counter through the dining area. Eeeek! We took our food back to eat at home, wondering if we should still eat the food after seeing that mouse. We grudgingly tried it, my husband got the chicken mole burrito did not taste anything like mole. Mole is one of his favorite Mexican food, so he knows mole. I got the fish burrito, it was just so-so. We wouldn't go back there again and don't recommend eating here.

The fish tacos here were good. But the main reason to go here would be to get a horchata coffee. The service here both times J went was great. The restaurant is clean. When they make mole it sells out so I guess you should come in the morning m. We tried to order some but they were out:(

Ensenada fish and shrimp tacos
Jaidyn P.

Came on a Monday and got the surf and turf plate combo. It was DELICIOUS! Brisket was perfectly moist and tender and the fish was perfectly battered with so much flavor. We loved the food and service so much that we came back again the next day for Taco Tuesday. This time getting a fish and shrimp and O.M.G. I didn't think it could get any better but the shrimp taco was heavenly. The place itself is nice, smaller on the inside however you can sit outside as well! All in all, a great place to eat. Highly highly recommend!

Veggie breakfast burrito

A New Job, A New Milestone & A Chance to Rewrite the Narrative…read more My best friend and I have a tradition of celebrating new jobs with a nice dinner. Since this was her new job and a major milestone, I let her choose the restaurant. She had visited Bo-Beau last year but didn't get the full experience, so this was her chance to rewrite the narrative. And it was truly night and day. I researched the restaurant beforehand and was excited to see that Bo-Beau is part of the Cohn Restaurant Group, which I mostly associate with San Diego and South Orange County. After this experience, I really hope they're here to stay. I noted on our reservation that we were celebrating her new job, and for once, the restaurant actually read the note and acknowledged it. From the moment we walked in, the hospitality was excellent. The hostess welcomed us downstairs, another staff member greeted us when we reached the rooftop, and our server quickly followed up. Then came the surprise: complimentary champagne for both of us. It was such a thoughtful gesture, especially because those little celebratory touches seem to be increasingly rare. Our server was also patient with our questions and attentive throughout the evening without being intrusive. We spent about 2.5 hours enjoying dinner and catching up over: Baked Brie Brussels Sprouts Steak Frites Everything was flavorful, and the entire experience felt relaxed, peaceful, and worth the price point. The food was great, but the hospitality is what earned the 5 stars for me. Real hospitality is paying attention to the guest, recognizing the occasion, and making people feel genuinely welcomed. My best friend got the celebration she wanted -- and a much better Bo-Beau experience this time around. Will definitely be returning!

The restaurant is elegant and has a classy vibe with dim lighting, very welcoming. The service was great and even received a complimentary anniversary dessert since we were celebrating our anniversary as well. We ordered appetizer, 4 main courses and wine of course. However, a few of the dishes were on the salty side (not the steak). Overall it was a great evening, ambiance was lovely and great atmosphere.

It is a fish market and the lines are long but it goes fast…read more We ordered the fish, scallop and shrimp plate with fries. All of this was fried and the fish is red snapper. Also the Mahi Mahi and grilled shrimp plate with rice. Absolutely delicious. And the dungeness crab. Yum! Also if you want a hammer for the crab, it's a $2 deposit. They refund you after you return it. Obviously had to get the clam chowder in a bread bowl. Absolutely worth it. All of this cost $130. Mostly cuz of the crab at 29.99/lb. Bread bowls were $16 (we ordered 2) And the plates were less than $25 each. Plenty of seating around.

62$ spent on clam chowder, red snapper and halibut plate for 2 people. 31$ per person. Only one…read morepiece of fish and regular rice. I believe it to be overpriced especially when they don't have any transportation cost and the fish is right there and then every morning. It is their advantage at the same time cause you don't know how fresh the fish is anywhere else so that's why 3 stars. Ambience is overlooking the port. Can get a little chilly so you should bring a coat with you or a blanket. They do have inside sitting as well in a building right next to the patio so just ask them to show it to you. They have a big private venue getting fixed right now so you can celebrate big weddings and events there. They did give us recommendations on the fish but nothing other than that. You choose, you pay, you take your food, you throw your plate away. Nobody will come and check on you. If you are looking for a fresh fish - perfect spot. If you are looking for anything else - there are better spots out there

First timer here and I must say that I was disappointed by the service. Our waitress kept changing…read more Each one took a really long time checking on us, placing our order, we had to keep flagging someone down to help us. Each waitress seemed bothered and annoyed. We didn't even know there was complimentary bread until the very end of our meal. We sat outside and had incredible sunset views. Live music was great. I ordered the braised short ribs and it was delicious. Really great melt in your mouth flavor. Would have been better if we had the freshly baked bread to pair with it. Overall, the experience could have been better and being that I am a stickler for customer service I don't know if I will be back again or even recommend it. Especially when there are so many great restaurants nearby with great views, great food, and excellent customer service.

All in all, I'd go back and get the loco moco.
