" We visited Primos for a family dinner and overall, we had a great time. The nachos were a hit with everyone at the table - they were loaded and so flavorful! The decoration of the place was fun and colorful, making it a great spot for families. My only complaint would be the wait time for our food was a little longer than expected. Nevertheless, we left full and happy! " (*Curated Review*)

" Visited Primos during a busy lunch hour and was pleasantly surprised by how quickly we were seated and served. I opted for the shrimp tacos, which were fresh and zesty. While the service was satisfactory, I think they could streamline the ordering process a bit. Definitely a solid lunch choice if you're in the mood for tacos! " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve heard a lot about Primos and finally decided to give it a try! I ordered the fish tacos and they were phenomenal! The fish was perfectly cooked with a crunchy exterior and fresh toppings. Although I felt the service was somewhat inattentive, the food made it worth the visit. I’ll definitely be returning to sample more of their menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" I just had the pleasure of dining at Primos and it was an amazing experience! The ambiance was vibrant and welcoming, making it a perfect spot to relax with friends. I ordered the carne asada tacos and they were packed with flavor and the meat was tender and juicy. The complimentary chips and salsa really elevated the meal. I will be returning soon for Taco Tuesday! " (*Curated Review*)

" I've had a mixed experience at Primos. One time they served me cold food, but other visits have been lovely with hot dishes. The burritos can be very filling which is a plus! I hope to see some improvements in service consistency. " (*Curated Review*)
