"Yeah, all the other Mexican restaurants up at this hour they're not nearly as fresh ingredients and the package hot sauce threw me off, but it was actually better than the hot sauce is most places also they don't skip you on the product you know like there's plenty of the ingredients for example of this other Mexican restaurant that is more expensive they just basically give you a tortilla with a little bit of meat burgers. This is like more of a meal so I would say if you're up at this hour goes to that this restaurant I haven't ran into a better one this late at night. I just wish I got to try the tortillas that would've made would've sealed the deal or I mean it would've made the meal better with the carbohydrates are good anyway I gotta go bye"

"The fish taco was amazing. I really love that chipotle sauce on it. Both things tasted fresh and I also love the salsa the green and the hot red. I am definitely ordering this combo again. Service was extremely fast which I was glad for because I was starving. Thank you Primos!"
"Pretty good taquitos. They are huge and loaded with all condiments. I will say they did get soft from restraint to my house, but expected with all the stuff sitting on top for while. Only thing I would say is I wish it had more cheese. Overall, I recommend. The guacamole was very bland. I personally had to add chopped up jalapenos and lemon juice to it to give it some flavor. Refried beans were good. Salsa was ok."

"Kids Build Your Own Taco was very tasty and delicious.. Roasted Chipotle Salsa Salsa Picante Diablo Hot Sauce Mexican Rice was excellent tasting"
"The quality wasn't the norm. The guacamole had that "old avocado twang" taste, not fresh. Limes replaced with lemons. Salsa containers are 1/2 size from before - I barely covered a taco. Chips were semi-burned and hard. Churros smelled like dirty socks. For the cost of the food, I expect better quality and value. "

"I ordered 2 carne asada fries, one with sour cream and cheese on the side, and one regular. I also ordered a jamaica and churros. The carne asada fries did not come with guac, the meat was dry, and the fries were even drier. The staff forgot to put the sour cream and cheese on the side for one of the carne asada fries as well. Dont order carne asada fries here. The Jamaica tasted great though."

"The Burrito de Machaca / Dried Shredded Beef Burrito was fire and they followed instructions with the salsas and honestly.. One of my favorites.. And I'm picky 🔥🔥"
"Super Nachos Good, crunchy chips, and meat, good flavor and seasonin. Portion sizes are good. It's not the best compared to other spots. However, flavor wise and quality are good. Physically, I have been to this location, and it's a nice restaurant small but mostly for drive-thru. Glad see this location here on Doordash finally.

"The food was all very tasty. We thoroughly enjoyed the food. It does cost a bit more than comparable food in the area. The Pollo Asado Salad was a very large portion with a lot of chicken. The 5 Rolled Tacos did not have enough guacamole and cheese to cover the 5 rolled tacos. The Quesadilla was good but overpriced significantly."
"This is our go to Mexican place that we love.! We actually always get the same thing....every time. Why mess with perfection! The Carne Asada has amazing flavor! I always order the nachos supreme, sadly , Ican't handle heat ..so I order it without the nacho cheese sauce because it's too spicy for me . Don't judge!, lol. (Yes, my father was born in Mexico, but I was born here and I wasn't brought up on spicy food. My mom and dad ate it, but they never forced us to. My mom was such an amazing cook. Her food didn't need any extra of anything...ever, so I didn't feel like I was missing out on anything. ) so it's not like they use extra spicy nacho cheese sauce. It's the standard nacho sauce you would get anywhere, I'm just a "fake Mexican" and can't handle it! lol anyways, they put plenty of meat, beans, cheese, and toppings. Frankie always gets the Carne Asada burrito and five rolled tacos. I love their American guacamole because there's no onions in it. I don't like raw onions. And he prefers the Mexican guacamole because of the onions and tomatoes. They are always kind to swap out to the guac that we prefer. He loves their hot carrots as well, obviously too spicy for me! lol it's not cheap by any means. But it's better than many Mexican restaurants where you might pay similar or even more."
