Came back to try some street tacos and carne asada fries, wow so good. I like this place a lot, the service is really good, everyone is so friendly and helpful. I enjoyed the carnitas taco, the skin was a little crispy and the meat was juicy and tender. Highly recommended, you will not be disappointed.

The Bombero burrito is superb and very filling, the shrimp has a great flavor and the chipotle sauce complements the other ingredients perfectly. My husband goes to That Mexican Place anytime we need a meal we can count on to be delicious. Plus, the owner is so nice and we love that she sings while she works. Overall a great experience every time.

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!

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.

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

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.

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.

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!
