Was visiting Hemet for the weekend and wanted some enchiladas. Service was quick and the reviews were great so I went. Girl what is this? The first enchilada was ok, it had shredded chicken (I think) but the second had some kind of chewed up mystery meat. It smelled weird so I just threw it away. Not sure if this is how they make them but no thank you!! Rebuked instantly. The fish tacos were huge though and good for the price. I didn't take a pic because the enchilada threw me off but yea. Don't get the enchiladas fr read more

Ok it's a nice Sunday and I thought lets try some local mom and pop places. So I landed on That Mexican Place Restaurant. After reading some reviews and and seeing some good things, I figured why not? Well the ambiance was nice in their restaurant. It's funny some of their patrons have never seen a black person up close before. But hey they didn't start anything so there wasn't anything. Let's continue, the service was amazing I was treated like any other patron there which is always a plus. I ordered the surf and turf burrito and carne asada fries as well as their surf and turf fries and hell why not a carne asada burrito. Ok, on to the food. The chipotle sauce was flavorful but there was just not enough of it on the surf and turf burrito. Also it seemed like a flavor was missing from the food itself. My carne asada fries was missing something from them as well as the fries being undercooked. Would this be a place where I'll return? sure mom and pop places always need second chances. Maybe this was a off day, maybe their best chef wasn't there. It could be anything but I'll give the a shot much later on this year. read more

It was ok. Chips were very salty. Carne asada was eh. But those flour tortillas! The salsa! The grilled jalapeños! This is where they know what they're doing! Shrimp burrito was mis named, should be Rice burrito with some shrimp. But free refills on drinks and price is decent. I'm not sure Ill be back. You try it. For a combo it seems ok. read more

One of my favorite restaurants in Hemet! The staff is always so friendly and welcoming from the second you walk in through the door. My favorite dishes to order from here are the protein plate, which I get with carne asada, rice and beans, as well as the carne asada fries. The portion sizes are amazing for the price, I usually always have leftovers. I also really love their salsa bar - there's a great variety of mild to spicy salsas and pickled carrots/jalapeños. Highly recommend coming here! read more

Husband and I decided to try this place out and it was ok at best. My food was cool/warm... not hot at all. The beef taco was the best thing on my plate, everything else kinda lacked flavor. My husband had the chilaquiles, he asked for over-easy egg and they gave him scrambled eggs. I also ordered 2 carne asada tacos to go and they were delicious. read more

Love this place! I have tried a few taco shops and always just end up coming back here. It's clean and inviting and the customer service is top-notch. The burritos are huge and they always get our orders correct. The salsa bar is stocked fresh constantly and they aren't stingy with the salsa or anything. The jalapeños and onions are my favorite, I always get 2 bags of them. It's just really the best taco shop out here. read more

This is the worst Mexican food place I've ever been to! I got the taco and enchilada plate, to start off with they threw the taco right on top of the enchilada and soak the tortilla of the taco completely through as I picked it up it fell apart and everything fell out of it! So I started to eat my enchilada and it was colder than room temperature it was never heated up at all so I wasn't able to eat that I was afraid I was going to get sick from it! So I spent all the money on the taco plate for some refried beans and a couple bites of rice like I said the worst place I'd ever eaten in my life I will never spend another Penny there for the rest of my life! read more

We came in the morning and, to our surprise, we weren't the first ones there. I could see why - we were immediately greeted and this friendly service continued throughout our dining experience. We ordered a little bit of everything including a breakfast item. I tried the potato and fish tacos. I didn't expect the potatoes to be mashed up, and this one lacked flavor overall. The fish taco however was great! Especially that sauce/aioli that comes with it. I also tried the bacon wrapped shrimp which was really good and that's a alot coming from someone who doesn't like bacon, crazy I know. Another surprise were the beans - the smoothest we've ever had. Even though I had it later in the day, the breakfast burrito was still good. Overall, we were satisfied and would return. read more

Kind and generous staff, willing accommodate food requests. Chef takes time, and does it right. Great salsa and extras to choose.

They have the biggest burritos and the carne asada is so flavorful wish they would open a Riverside location. I drive to hemet just to eat here. I cannot find another place that compares. read more

I found myself in San Jacinto-Hemet for work, and I was craving Mexican. I heard about this place so I decided to drop in for dinner. I got the El Bombero Burrito and it was fantastic! It was a large portion bursting with flavor. I will definitely be going back when in the area. read more

SATISFACTORY MEXICAN FOOD... I actually came with higher expectations for this place but realized I should've lowered the bar just a little. I ordered the Carne Asada fries. They were good and scratched the itch I had for this meal. However, they could've been more flavorful. The carne asada was a little basic and tasted like the generic carne asada you find at other Mexican joints. Hey, at least the cheese was amazing! Fry-wise they were also a bit generic, it's your average shoestring fries. Again, I enjoyed my meal but I just wouldn't have this place at the top of my list for Carne Asada fries. The staff were quite friendly and attentive! I really appreciated them providing us menus without us asking. This isn't a full on restaurant, it's more of a taco shop so it was a nice touch. I found it to be very chill inside and relaxed. I would definitely come back! I went on a Sunday evening and I didn't have to wait in line! I was in and out, so i highly recommend going on Sunday! That Mexican Place sells seafood, burritos, tacos and a variety of other Mexican staples. There's plenty of seating for groups and families! I spotted booths and tables. read more

First and last time trying this place.. ordered menudo.. nasty. Tastes like canned and paid 34$ for 2 orders read more

Stopped in for some rolled tacos and the staff was so nice. Nicest service from a taco shop ever lol. They have a lot of seating so is easy to bring a larger group in. Food is great, salsa was perfect. Ordered the beans and they were really good. For me I grade Mexican food on their beans and they passed the test for sure. Will come back anytime I want Mexican food in Hemet. read more

We went to That Mexican Place on a Friday afternoon. It wasn't busy and we were greeted quickly. The prices are a bit steep but prices everywhere are raising so I understand. I ordered the small carne asada fries and they were delicious! I was surprised how big the serving was. The fries themselves could have been cooked a bit longer, they were kind of soggy but other than that everything was good. Also idk if the guacamole is made fresh. It tasted and had the texture of store bought guac but I'm not 100% sure. read more

Salsa great !! Best breakfast burrito !! Super big !!! Rolled tacos omg !! Fresh and delicious !!

My daughter just bought a house in Hemet and we stopped in for a late lunch the day of the move. It's an "order at the counter, pick your own table" place. I got the shredded beef taco and cheese enchilada plate. It was good. My husband got the buffalo chicken fries that was a special. He wasn't so impressed. The salsa bar was good. The food was decent enough for the prices charged and the restaurant was very clean. We'll be back to try some of the breakfast items! read more

Can never go wrong with this Mexican place. Food is so delicious, definitely recommend this restaurant to everyone read more

First things first, we are on the hunt for the best menudo in Hemet/IE. So we seen the reviews and decided to check it out for ourselves. Ambiance: it's in a small shopping center and doesn't look like much from the outside, but once inside place looks nice and has a welcoming presence. You order at the counter and pay before you eat. The lady at the counter today greeted us as we entered, which is always a welcoming touch. Also, took our order quickly and was able to answer all my questions I had. Friendly and welcoming. Felt like I was valued. Food: now we came with the sole purpose to try the menudo as my son and I love it. So we each ordered a bowl. Upon ordering you are asked if hominy and pata are wanted. We went no pata on ours. The menudo itself was very good. I'd say 8.5 out of 10. One key factor is does it taste fresh. And it delivered. Flavor was really good, didn't even really need to add much to it to enjoy it. That says a lot. As we ate we were checked in on which is nice as well. Overall if you are looking for a great menudo spot, you won't be disappointed. Based on this experience I would definitely come back and try different food items as well. Hopefully this level of service and food is throughout the entire menu. This place so far, has my approval read more

I had fish tacos with rice and beans. It was my first time trying the place and based on reviews I expected authentic Mexican food. It was okay. Maybe I will try a different menu item. Not a variety of things, limited vegetarian options. Service was okay. The ambiance Qasim okay, it didn't give the feel of mexican food, except the Spanish music read more

I came here tonight to try it out instead of going to my usual place and it was pretty good! Portions are large, staff is friendly and attentive. I like that they remember previous customers and acknowledge their return. If you dine in you get chips. You can make anything a combo with beans and rice for 2.00 more. Ambiance was cute and clean. They're going around wiping tables quickly after guests leave. I ordered 3 Taquitos and turned it into a combo and my daughter ordered the shrimp quesadilla. All of it was delicious! My daughter actually finished all of her shrimp quesadilla which is a first- and we appreciate that it wasn't really greasy. I'd come back and try more off their menu, for sure! read more

My family loves this place, including my little ones. Good food, good service.l, clean.

The surf and turf burrito was alright, the #4 beef taco and bean tostada were decent. Liked the self serve aqua frescas from the tap. Portion sizes were decent, including 2 small drinks total was $40 after tip; so that might be a bit high, especially with taco spot all around. Staff seemed busy working but taking your order without much of a wait mid week before 3pm We dined in but unlike others, I didn't see any chips with our orders read more

Came here for the first time for a quick bite. Quite impressed . There was plenty of parking, the restaurant was very clean and music was at a minimum so I could still hear myself think of what I wanted to order. Upon walking in there were several seats taken. We ordered the fish tacos, shrimp tacos and surf N turf burrito. All of which came out one after another and initially only took less than 10 min. The quality of the food was fresh and authentic, and service was excellent. The cashier was friendly, attentive and helpful. Highly recommend for lunch/ dinner. I would like to return to try their menudo. Overall great spot! read more

All I can say is spot on!! I'll be back !! Fish Taco is a must!! The service is outstanding!

I've tried carne asada fries, tacos, rolled tacos, and burritos and I've yet to be disappointed. The food is fkn delicious and authentic. I recommend it to anyone in search of Mexican food. My son loves the chicken tacos, crunchy taco. And he doesn't like tacos like that. Oh and the salsas omggg damn good salsas. They are actually spicy and tasty read more

This place was great! The service was incredible, the patio was really nice, the chairs are metal but they're nice and wide so if you have big hips, you will still be comfortable. I ordered the small carne asada fries and they were a whole plate, I took most of them home for my kids. The salsa bar was really tasty, I tried all of them and their salsa verde was my favorite but all of them were really good! My friend's burrito could have easily fed 3 people. I can't say enough good things about the staff, they went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of from the time we stepped through the door until we left, and they seemed genuinely happy to have you in their restaurant and cared about you liking what you ordered. We will absolutely be back! read more

I did the breakfast burrito that comes with steak egg and cheese , then added fries and A LITTLE bit of guacamole so it doesn't sog the whole thing up. Technically this is supposed to be a traditional California burrito. But theirs is not all of these ingredients together , I highly recommend this combo it's ELITE . I was very specific about them toasting my burrito and cutting it in half. Enjoy like I did ! Peppers and onion bar and salads fresh clean 5/5 read more

The carne asada burrito is my favorite & is gigantic. read more

This place is fireee. I got 2 breakfast burritos, one carne & one bacon and added potatoes to both. Asked to toast my burritos and they did just that. These burritos were huge, we could only finish half. All their salsas are bomb too. The staff was very welcoming. I'll definitely be back. read more

Food is great, employees are friendly. Place at times is dirty not flitty. Everything is almost perfect --- except pricing. Very expensive. If they ask customers any additional from the advertised menu on the wall it keeps adding on price. Not just adding fractions but adding big amounts. From a wall menu of $20, your bill will easily climb up to almost $40, pretty much close to double. Will I come back? Well, I'll just stick to the wall menu without ad-ons. Kinda a rip-off place. Maybe change their name to "That-rip-off place". read more
