“Stater Bros at 43396 E. Florida Ave., Hemet, CA 92544 (Store #119)
On 07-04-24, I was assisted by the Meat Dept. supervisor, Andrew M. He took the time to explain meat cuts, meat specials, and what to look for in meat selection. He also informed of the no-cost services they provide, such as meat grinding (for making ground beef), adding seasoning to any meats, special cuts of meats, meat trimming, etc.
Also, the store manager, Matt S., went to back to bring out a particular beverage that was empty from shelf. He did this twice to ensure I received what I was looking for.
This Stater Bros offers a great selection of everyday staple items, an excellent bakery, a fantastic meat dept., and excellent customer service!
So pleased they have been my local grocery store since 2000!!”
“It wasn't two weeks. I'm in here 2 or 3 times a week. Pretty good discounted stuff.
(Couple days later.)
Yesterday & today. Pies for church this time. And some of their small but delightfully sweet persimmons.”
“Great tasting, yummy Filipino Food. Just like my Grandpa and Auntie's used to make. Candy is so sweet and always has a smile and friendly greeting. The Adobo is flavorful. It's worth the drive”
“First. Produce is excellent and the assortment of health foods and vegan foods is extensive. It is a little higher priced than Other local markets. More bulk food would be good. The place is clean and well managed. Updated from previous review on 2025-06-15”
“There are now 2 locations they both carry similar discount items. One carries food items and miscellaneous goods. The other carries more household goods and clothing and a large variety make-up items. Both locations are centrally located in downtown Hemet on Harvard Street. The original is one block south of Florida the other is located on the opposite side of the same street one block north of Florida.”
“It's nice to have a place with great produce for low cost. This isn't just for EBT and WIC or Cal Fresh anyone is able to grocery shop here. The employees are phenomenal, professional and courteous with everyone!!!!”
“Shopping at these lil markets for anything other than fresh meat can be expensive. But the TACOS AND BURRITOS ARE FIRE ? ? ? We break our healthy eating lifestyle just for that at least monthly. ?”
“Always come here. But today one of the cashier's was rude as hell. We were paying for our food and dish soap. Half food stamps and half on our debit card we were waiting for her to scan in our items and she was there talking to another coworker. No hello or anything we scanned our EBT card for our food items and she took long to do her part after we entered our pin. Then for our soap and sponges and we said we're paying debit it wasn't registering because she did not set it up we told her twice and she was ignoring us. Everyone else in the store sees us daily but this middle age woman is rude and unprofessional...”
“They have wonderful customer service and almost everything u can think of! This is my number one go-to spot no matter what you need and if not, you may request for it they will order it! They go above and beyond for their customers ‼️”
“I've dealt with some not-very-friendly employees here, but it's fine overall. Early morning and late night sometimes there are several loiterers in this lot.”
“This is going to be my “go to” meat market!The funny thing is that I had just visited a museum today just before looking for a “meat market near me” on Google maps. I followed the directions and was shocked to see that they were directly in front of the post office that I go to all the time!This store took me down memory lane. It looked like the meat markets used to look in the 1960’s when I was a little girl. The difference was that this place was impeccable.They had hot food on one side and the grocery store in the middle with this long counter with beautiful colored meats neatly laid out.I held conversations with three employees. They didn’t act dumb they answered questions and talked to me as if they had known me as a regular customer. I felt special in there.El Toro did not smell like the old meat markets though. It was clean and the prices were fair.My friend who lives in Moreno Valley wants to visit El Toro. I recommend this store to everyone in Hemet”
“Thank you Basel for your honesty and kindness. I left my wallet at the store with all my important ID cards and debit card. Basel made sure that all my documents in the wallet was safe. Basel turned a bad night into a wonderful night. I am forever grateful for Basel sincere Honesty and Kindness. Shukran and Salaam Alaikum!! Thank you Thank 100x over!!!!”
“I know I should be embarrassed of this that I look at TikTok so much but I'm just not. I find so many amazing places to go yelp because of TikTok. I saw a TikTok about Dollar General having snow white figurines. If you know anything about me, you know I'm weirdly obsessed with Snow White. Unfortunately i've never seen a Dollar General in LA , but I did see one in Hemet California! My dad came into town to see how I settled in. I literally live on a mountain that divides Temecula and Hemet. He said where do you wanna go? I pushed for Hemet cause I wanted to go to the dollar general. I said I've never been and I'm very curious. Keeping my deep dirty secret inside I was only going to look for Snow White. Until we went to the Store. My dad said what did you want from here? I walked right up to the person at the register and said, do you guys have snow white figurines? An employee behind me said go down aisle 10. You have no idea how excited I was. She followed me and looked on the shelf and said a lady just came yesterday and bought A bunch. I hope she left you one. Unfortunately, she bought all of them. I was just so excited that they were there. My dad was baffled that I wanted to go to the Dollar general just for Snow White .Crystal aren't you a little too old for this stuff? One is never too old for snow white dad #SnowWhiteObsessed”

“I love stopping by to get cold drinks ?. They have a variety of stuff for you and your family. Plus I have noticed that they're not like the other liquor stores, in the scene of hiking up prices. When we're all going through this inflation process, aka money hungry greedy blood suckers " CORPORATE AMERICA "”
“Had a great experience. The lady at the counter was so sweet and wished me a great birthday. Was very sweet and helped me find a few things I needed. The guy at the other counter was super sweet as well. Yummy soda and snacks and gas was at a great price!”
“Always quick easy in and out shopping mini varieties of different liquors and beers sodas chips goodies stop by for yourself and see how it is a very clean store.”
“The cake’s designs are very nice, and for the price you can’t beat it! So so pretty and such great prices, i get all my cakes there! These are some of the ones ive gotten there. I highly recommend them.”
“Out of all the mother stores in san jacinto and hemet I feel like this one is the best one very clean and very nice and has great customer service it's been like this for years .”
“Sonny the owner is great and funny. Unless you get on his bad side. Great when he's mad at some idiot customer. Good times then. This place is great. Robert Garcia complained about people parked at the pumps in all directions making it difficult for patrons to get out at the pumps. I park in whatever direction I need to and have no problem getting in or out. Robert Garcia should learn to drive maybe or just stop crying.”
“Convienent location to get groceries. I was able to go ahead because I had lesser items. Good experience today. Quick visit in and out quickly. The parking lot is kinda small”
“Amazing staff. I lost my wallet and when I went back to find it, I saw a security guard was holding my wallet and ask who lost it.
What a nice guy. His name is Reginald. Thank you Reginald!!!”
“Staff is always friendly and I can always find reasonable prices on basic food items. The one notable thing I always run here for is the trash and food storage bags. Best prices for such great quality. Better than any name brand I've tried.”
