One of the best Mexican/Taco shop in Santee hands down! Worth every $$. Staff are also friendly and accommodating.

Where this is located has many options for Mexican food. This is one of the better restaurants . Those carne asada nachos I ordered were fire. Probably one of the best I've had in a long while. I washed it down with a jamaica drink which was super refreshing. I definitely recommend BH. They have a variety of Mexican fast food cuisine here.

San Diego, I've missed you so much! I know Santee is further from where I'd normally get tacos, burritos, and carne asada fries, but that's where I was staying for this particular vacation. My friend and I came here for dinner and witnessed the obscene amount of food they give. I got the Surf and Turf Fries, which were pretty good. Definitely filling. Didn't love the sauce on top, but I did enjoy the horchata I got on the side. The horchata was mostly ice, but oh well. Decent amount of seating inside the restaurant, as well as parking. Not bad overall!

I returned to the drive thru today and made an order for my family of 4 crispy beef tacos, 2 carne asada tacos, an adobada taco, a surf and turf taco, a carnitas burrito, and a carne asada burrito. Everyone was very happy with the food... my carnitas burrito was awesome, as it was almost all meat and it was flavorful and tender. The service was great as the young man at the window was very friendly, he double checked the order, was specific about the salsa, and provided an overall positive customer experience. It is a very casual and relaxed place and great for drive thru orders. I am happy to say I will be back. Thank you bad hombres!

My partner and I loved everything we tried here! We ordered the surf and turf fries, potato taquitos, fish taco, horchata, and cold brew horchata, and.... WOW! The cooks put a lot of love and thought into these recipes, clearly. The portions were more than generous (except for the fish in the fish taco- it was very tiny) and the flavors were abundant. I am only giving four stars because they are really understaffed. They had one person taking care of the line of in person customer and drive thru orders. That one person was also in charge of making coffee drink orders and they were stretched so thin that they forgot my cold brew horchata altogether and I had to remind them to make my drink before we left.

The food is horrible. Super dry burrito. Super dry carne asada fries. No guacamole. It's drier than the desert Sahara. I would not go here again, there are way better places than this! Go to Cotijas at the corner off the 125... way better than this!!

Food was shockingly good. We ordered a super cali burrito, an Adobada burrito, red taco, an "I don't care" kids meal, and a breakfast burrito and let me tell you everything was so good that we ate there for breakfast the next morning and for dinner again the next night. It was just the best food I've ever tasted! Line for the drive thru get a bit long but it is for good reason and it goes by fast

We've been back to bad hombres more times than I would like to about for their delicious breakfast burritos! Plenty of eggs and meat and not overstuffed with potatoes. They also had fresh orange juice that's always tasty and we never have an issue both parking here. Another nice perk is that they have a drive through!

I'm obsessed with the Red Taco and the Surf & Turf Taco so much so that I don't even want to try anything else on the menu. They're both delicious, packed with meat and toppings. Bad Hombres never fails with these two! My family likes the California burrito quesadilla wrapped, and the Adobada burrito.

Not only the best Mexican food in town but one of the few that has a drive thru. Their portions are huge, prices are fair. Their lines do get backed up in the evenings both inside and drive thru but food usually come out fast once you order. Not a lot of parking in that area.
