Hole Mole

Stopped in to see what all the fuss was about. I’ve never tried a taco at this place, or at least I don’t recall if I had. The place is nicely decorated and colorful. It was very busy and this was toward closing. I ordered two of their taco Tuesday specials, one fish and one carnitas. Both were tasty, but of course small. The fish taco was mostly breading. If I had to do it over again I would just have ordered the carnitas. They had three different salsa’s at the salsa bar including mild, hot and medium. They also had radishes and limes.
Overall, the tacos were good, but not really impressed with the fish taco. I guess I need to try some of their bigger tacos to really get a good gauge for this place. My two little tacos took over ten minutes to make. I’m sure it was the fish taco that took so long. All in all, it was ok.

Hot and new location but definitely the best service and better presentation than most! :)

Yay for Taco Tuesday’s! This new location is clean and spacious, with amazing customer service. The tacos are so yummy. My favorites are the shrimp, carnitas, and fish. You can never go wrong with unlimited condiments (mild/​medium/​hot salsa, lime, radishes, and fried peppers!!). I felt that the medium spice salsa was the tastiest. The workers go around to check up on you and offer fried peppers if you desire more. I’ll be back!

Yay for Taco Tuesdays at Hole Mole! I stopped by at the order at the counter casual restaurant which offers soft tacos for $ 1.19. They offer Ensenada Fish, Asada, Chicken, Carnitas, Al Pastor and Shrimp Taco [$ 1.99].
My Take-​Out Order was:
(1) Two Ensenada Fish Tacos
Deep fried white fish wrapped two corn tortilla topped with shredded cabbage, tomatoes, a white mayo sauce and parsley. Really fresh and delicious … this taco was my fav.
(2) Asada Soft Taco
Slices of beef asada wrapped inside two corn tortillas. The meat was tender and well seasoned.
(3) Carnitas Soft Taco
They gave a lot of yummy carnitas. I enjoyed it.
(4) Al Pastor Soft Taco
The seasoned and grilled pieces of pork was very tasty. Good thing I ordered two.
(5) Carne Asada Burrito
I ordered hubby a carne aside burrito which had beef aside, beans, rice, lettuce, tomatoes, and I added avocado which cost extra. Hubby said it was good but not great.
I enjoyed my tacos and the restaurant has a cute salsa bar with 4 types of salsa, limes, and radish. My only complaint was that the salsa lids weren’t labelled. So everyone has to open each salsa container to find out what type of salsa was inside. Oh, I might have missed the free grilled yellow peppers that they were passing out =(. I’m not special? lol
I’ll be back on Taco Tuesdays and just order the Ensenada Fish Tacos! I’m a fan! 4 Stars!

This place is amazing! Everything on the menu is so good especially the fish tacos and the price is reasonable.

This place is good hole mole I like the food and the fast and the closed to my house. You should guys go try, ok you will like this food.

Best place for Taco Tuesday! I love their fish tacos. Sometimes it gets busy here so I would recommend calling in first. By the time you get there, your food will be ready! :)

Hole Mole has made its way down to HB! Located next to the police station at Beach and Slater, you can’t miss it. Don’t make that illegal left turn if you are heading east on Slater, you will turn right into the police parking lot!
Walking in, I really liked the décor, it’s basic yet updated. I ordered a sampling of food, so here is the rundown:
Crunchy Tacos 5 stars –I ordered several different types, and what I really liked is for 1.89 you got two stuffed tacos. They are smaller, but they make up for it with the portion size. I can’t wait to go back to order more!
Quesadilla– 4 stars– The quesadilla was for my little ones, they tore it up! Plenty of cheese, and a good portion size.

Asada Torta– 2 stars. The bread was cold, and it didn’t have a lot of sauce in the torta. I also thought it was a bit on the skimpy side.
Something else that I noticed is that Hole Mole has a serious beer and wine list, I noticed 10 different brands of beer on tap, and they had a bunch of other types of alcohol (22 oz tallcans? Lol) behind the counter. They also have TV’s with games on, so this location could work for you if you live nearby and want to have a drink and watch something on TV.
Good prices, good interior, pleasant staff, and an a awesome ‘beverage’ list makes Hole Mole worth a few visits! Thanks.

Hi, I’m danny, and i’m a tacoholic.
it’s been 5 minutes since my last taco… erm…taco~s.
seriously though. i’ve been eyeballing this location since Azteca’s moved out, dreaming about what could possibly open up in it’s stead… low and behold, the clouds parted and light shone upon the precious Hole Mole. now, i’ve been to the long beach location, and truth be told, it was «ok». I think it was more the layout of the establishment that got me rather than the food. the new place is super clean! first thing i thought of when i saw the sign for hole mole coming into the location was «cheap, good, mexican food!». i was ecstatic! my usual place for tacos in the area consisted of the taqueria over off springdale (and if you’ve been there, you know the sanitation is a key concern to all), and random little shops in HB. now that this has come in, my mexican food cravings are but a thing of the past. the food is on point. asada, fish, shrimp, carnitas, etc… you name it. flavor is good, portions are great, service is exceptional. I think i’ve been to this location about 7 times since it’s opened (i work out in order to eat this stuff). oh, and they have a great selection of BEER! you can’t go wrong with this place and i had to put in my 2 cents as thanks to the owners as well as the amazing staff. Keep it up, you got me for life!

YES! FINALLY A LOCATION CLOSER TO ME! When we heard this location opened up, my co-​workers and I had Hole Mole 2x that week.
As a lover of everything crispy and fried, I’m a huge fan of the Ensenada (fried) fish tacos as well as their dirt cheap crispy tacos.
— CRISPY TACOS come in pairs with carnitas, chicken, or carne asada. a set of 2 crispy tacos runs you like $ 1.5x. They don’t skimp on the fillng, and it’s embraced by this deep fried, extra healthy, crispy taco shell and sprinkled with lettuce, cheese, and diced tomatoes.
— CRISPY POTATO TACOS are sold individually for $ 0.59 each. No, you did not read that incorrectly! They’re filled with fluffy, slightly crisp potatoes — the potatoes are somewhere in between mashed potatoes and hashbrowns.
— FISH TACOS — a fat chunk of fish in a lightly fried batter, and covered in cabbage and this white crema. SO GOOD wrapped in a warm, soft, tortilla. They’re only $ 1.69 REGULARLY, but on Taco Tuesday, you can save like $ 0.50…but if you’re like us and love Hole Mole, you’ll go any day of the week and justify that 0.50 doesn’t warrant waiting for one specific day of the week.
There’s a SALSA BAR with 3 different types of salsas (I love the dark red, smokey, Chipotle salsa), sliced radish, and limes. There’s also usually someone walking around with a big bowl passing out grilled peppers. Though it was pretty busy, the wait was reasonable, about 10mins to get all of our food (5 of us). I’d recommend calling in your order if you want to shorten that time.
It’s located RIGHT on the corner of Beach/​Slater with a huge sign, you can’t miss it. Parking is not too bad. Service is amazingly friendly and quick! Great food, prices, and service. Thank you for ruining all of our New Year resolutions…

This place is really good and the employees are amazingly helpful and friendly. They are always smiling which is nice! The salsas are amazing and the food, wow! I always get one of their burritos and I get it toasted. Filing and an amazing price. The burritos I get are usually between $ 5 – 6!!! That beats Chipotle any day and the food is much better here.
This is my go to Mexican take out place! Dining in is great too, very casual. I just prefer to eat in the comfort of my home.

I’ve always been a fan of Hole Mole, always stopping by a location if I was ever in the LB area and I am so glad that they’ve decided to open one up closer to home.
I got the shrimp tacos, fish tacos and steak and egg breakfast burrito.
The seafood tacos were standard, as in they were awesome. The breakfast burrito on the other hand was a little too moist for my liking, but that’s just a tiny complaint because I still finished it.

Hole Mole is absolutely my favorite place to get fish tacos, so glad to see that they have expanded to HB!
My husband is obsessed with the fried shrimp tacos, we go on about this place at least once a week, it is THAT good!
Portions are small, order up, I go with at least three tacos and always wish I had gotten more.
Prices are fair, given the quality and flavor I would pay pretty much anything for these tacos.
Service is great, food can take a bit to come out, be patient.
Great salsa bar, I even really loved the al pastor here and usually add one of those tacos as well.
Worth trying and returning over and over again!

We’ve been driving to the LB for years to fill our (pie) holes with hole mole, so we are ecstatic that they have come to HB. Each location has a slightly different menu and ambiance. This one is nicer but a little more expensive — still a great deal. Our family of 4 filled up for $ 21! The food is excellent — you have to ask for the amazing chiles — unlike the other locations– but do it. It’s a great game of spice roulette! I usually get the mole burrito and a fish taco — amazing and very filling.
Have yet to explore the bar, but that will be a future visit.

You don’t understand how excited I was to discover that a Hole Mole was opening up 5 minutes down the street from me. Absolutely ecstatic! I actually like this location a lot better than the Tustin location — it’s a brand new location so the quality is a lot better (fish tacos are much better here).
My recommendations are the following: crunchy carnita tacos, fish tacos, shrimp ceviche, breakfast burritos & street tacos.
The best part? The food is so ridiculously affordable!

Stoked to finally have a Hole Molé in HB! You can’t beat the price on the bean and potato tacos and the whole menu is reasonably priced and loaded with flavor! Been going to Long Beach for years to enjoy this magical place so I really hope the people of HB fall in love with it too. Welcome to surf city Holé Mole!

When my partner told me they opened a HB location I jumped with joy. I’ve been going to their Long Beach location for a while and am happy to have one much closer to home. Hole Mole has a bunch of veggie options for non meat eaters like myself. I recommend the potato tacos, they’re cheap and small but so good!

this is a great upgrade from the aztecas that used to be here
hole mole was delicious
they have a lot of options that are vegetarian
i tried the fajitarito which was really flavorful
I also got the potato taco that was very good. it had good spices in it. usually potato tacos are bland but this was great
the bean taco was excellent too
the bean and potato tacos are only $ 0.59!!!
they have three salsas you can get at the salsa bar
and like the other reviews say there is a man who hands out fried jalapeños that are tossed in mexican seasonings. its delicious. some of the jalapeños are mild some are VERY spicy so be careful
the service is great and everyone is really friendly and accommodating
I really liked what I ate and will be back soon

Rosarito Tacos are the thing to get here. They also have 16 different draft beers. Service is fantastic. I can see this place will definitely be one of our go-​to places for dinner.

Best place to get some great fish tacos for a low price.
The restaurant is pretty well known in Long Beach so I was excited to know one was opening here in Huntington Beach.
Food= ⁵⁄₅
I ordered the Ensenada fish taco and potato taco. The fish taco is just like the other locations, the right crunch, and the right flavor. The potato taco tastes good, but tastes better when you add some of their salsa.
Also, there was a worker who came around asking other customers if they wanted some freshly grilled peppers (not spicy, but full of flavor) which in my experience haven’t gotten before at other locations.
Service =5/​5
Workers here are just amazing! They’re always working with a smile, and unlike some other places they had one worker who came back often to check back if everything was okay. A big plus in my book.
The size of the restaurant is really spacious, so don’t feel threatened to dine in, you’ll definitely find seating. There’s also two big screen TVs.
Overall, ⁵⁄₅. I’ll definitely be coming back, especially for taco Tuesdays.
