Taqueria Los Primos: Reviews & Ratings
I was at work and decided to try a new spot and I ended up going with Taqueria los primos. I got a steak burrito, elote, and churos. The burrito was amazing and possibly a top 5 burrito I've ever heard had. The flavors of everything inside meshed perfectly together. The elote was good but it was my first time trying it so I wasn't sure what to go off of. Lastly the churos were soft and chewy with a nice crunch on the outside and a little caramel drizzle on the inside. All in all great place.
Huge portions. If you ask them to make things spicy they will. The bistek is more like sliced roast beef In house salsas are good Quality is decent prices are fair Queso was good Authentic tortillas
No wait to be seated for lunch. After having checked the menu online ahead of time, I had anticipated getting the Quesadilla De Birria but didn't see it on the menu in house so I opted for my 2nd choice of Quesabirria Tacos instead. They were really good and I would get them again. Sodas are bottled and not fountain drinks. Service was attentive. I think I will try and order the Quesadilla de Birria next time even if not on the menu with Aguas Fresca.
Quick friendly service in a clean environment. Al Pastor tacos were delicious. Tortillas were fresh and the meat was a great blend of savory, sweet and spicy.
Quite a delicious delight. $3 per taco. Went with the barbacoa, al pastor, chicken, carne asada and shrimp tacos. All were very good. I particularly like the al pastor and carne asada tacos. The chicken was slightly underseasoned, but the other meats were all very good. Portions were decent and had a good amount of meat in them. Green and red salsa were also provided with radish and limes. Love the spice level as well. Washed it all down with a cup of horchata. Overall, good experience, nice staff, and delicious tacos. Will be back again.
This is hands down my favorite mexican spot in Alabama. I have tried mexican restaurants all over the country, and this place is in the top 3 no doubt. I had their steak, chorizo, and chicken street tacos. The meat was perfectly cooked and their hot sauce was exquisite. I loved that they had a full toppings bar as well. The service was top notch and the seating area was very clean. I also couldn't believe how cheap everything was. Anyways, please do yourself a favor and stop here.
My dad recommended for me to come here when I was craving some REAL, AUTHENTIC tacos after coming back from a trip to Mexico. I FELL IN LOVE AT FIRST BITE! I tried the campechano, steak, and fish tacos, and each were delicious. I love the rolled corn tortillas for the tacos. They are fresh and warm, which makes them amazing. I also tried the steak burrito, which was stuffed with steak. Sooo worth the price. I love their different salsas and toppings, but sometimes the toppings have been left out a bit too long, so it is not as fresh as it could be.
