" I recently tried Taqueria y Restaurant El Primo, and I must say, it was an exceptional experience! From the moment I walked in, the aromas of authentic Mexican cuisine enveloped me. I ordered their famous birria tacos, and I can confidently say they were some of the best I have ever tasted. The tacos were packed with flavor, and the homemade tortillas added that perfect touch. The staff was incredibly friendly and made me feel right at home. I can't wait to return for another meal! Overall, I would rate it a 5 across the board! " (*Curated Review*)

" Oh boy, where do I start? My last experience at El Primo was utterly disappointing. The quesabirria tacos I ordered came with dry meat and flavorless broth. The atmosphere was okay, but honestly overshadowed by the served food. I found the service to be efficient but not particularly friendly. It's hard to overlook the substantial price for the lack of quality we received. I doubt I'll be returning anytime soon. It was an overall letdown. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a positive experience at El Primo! The food is fresh, and the vibe is relaxed. The tacos I ordered were good, but I found myself wishing for a bit more spice. The service was attentive, and I appreciated how clean the restaurant felt. I'd return for sure, hoping to try other dishes off the menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" I stopped by El Primo on a recommendation and was glad I did! The tortillas felt freshly made, and the toppings were flavorful and fresh. The ambiance made it a perfect spot to catch up with friends, and I appreciated the attentive service. A solid experience overall—I’ll definitely be back! " (*Curated Review*)

" Taqueria y Restaurant El Primo offers a nice selection of Mexican dishes, although some items do need a bit more seasoning. The atmosphere is vibrant, which I appreciate. My service was quick, which is always a plus. I'd say the place is worth the visit, but just manage your expectations regarding flavor. " (*Curated Review*)

" (*Curated Review*)

" It's been a few months since my last visit to Taqueria y Restaurant El Primo, and I was eager to return. The ambiance remains charming, and I was once again pleased with the quality of food. I had the carne asada tacos, which were excellent. Everything was prepared fresh, and I loved the freshness of the ingredients. Service was attentive, and I left feeling satisfied.
