Taqueria Los Primos #2 reviews
4 This is the second location of the original Los Primos located on North B Street. I’ve been to both locations and was never impressed by the food, but decided to give them another try recently.
After multiple tries I can confidently say that the food is mediocre at best/flat out bad. Ordered their al pastor super burrito and chile relleno. The al pastor had little flavor. Mid. The chile relleno was $15 for just one stuffed poblano pepper, other places give two at least. The pepper was not fully cooked and the cheese inside not melted. I was literally biting into a half raw poblano pepper. I could not cut the pepper with the provided plastic knife so I had to switch to a metal knife and it was STILL hard to cut into. Beans and rice similarly had little seasoning and lacked flavor. The salsa was great though. Service was great as well and the person taking my order was very nice.
My suggestion: skip this place and it’s other location and go to the restaurants further down on North B Street like Pencas or Piñata if you’re looking for good Mexican/Central American food. This spot really isn’t it.
The prices at Taqueria Los Primos #2 are more than reasonable for the quality and quantity of food you receive. The portions are hearty, ensuring that you leave with a satisfied belly and a smile on your face.
Needs a lot of work. Zero love in the food. Horchata was from a mix. No flavor in the food. Extremely disappointed.
Delicious chile rellenos and very nice service! Simple authentic place.
