This place has amazing quality food. The staff is friendly and they put some love into their cooking. Try the carnitas that have chunks of pineapple on them. This is the most authentic Mexican cuisine in the county. Support local, family, immigrant and black-owned businesses! read more

To find authentic Mexican food all the way out here in Salisbury was a feat in itself. El Primo Taquireas looks and feels the part. There's a lot to like here: courteous and attentive staff, A spacious dining room with the Mexican colors splashed across the wall, and that menu! Tacos, gorditas, burritos, sopas, tortas, and even agua frescas. This is as authentic as a menu gets. And the price point? Incredibly affordable, which is a big deal in today's inflationary world. Unfortunately this is where the happy story is cut short. I ordered two of the more popular items on the menu, carne asada and Al pastor tacos. Also added a side of rice and beans. The flavors simply fell short. It honestly felt like not a single thing presented to me was seasoned. The steak featured in the carne asada, which I was most looking forward to, was quite chewy. Even the complimentary chips and dip were underwhelming. I've had some amazing Mexican food, especially of late. El Primo Taquireas is a decent choice for price and lack of Mexican options in the area, but a forgettable experience overall. Really a 2.5 but rounding up for benefit of the doubt. read more

Took a while to be greeted. Sat at the bar. Quite a few employees might have been off the clock but were sitting in various visible spots. The food was just okay . The decor was nice but the chairs were wobbling and not the same height . read more

I don't know about "authentic" but the food was very good. What I mean is that it's billed as authentic and I'm sure it's but I don't have the background to say so. Very pleasant and prompt service in a lively and colorfully decorated restaurant. I had fish tacos, beans and rice. read more

(Will be going again in a couple weeks for pic updates and more food ) The atmosphere was on the cooler side but the music warmed us as we danced at the site of the menu. Our waiter Karin was kind, she introduced herself warmly and even seemed like she was happy being here. She kept us informed of our meals that came out ‍ and was even on it with the drinks. (Sorry I just couldn't wait to eat ) 2 birria gorditas con consomé Crispy, meaty, flavorful, dipping it into the birroa oh my lawd just make sure you don't eat ya fingers!! 4 tacos birroa con consome Listen...first bite WITHOUT consume BURSTING with flavor the meat is just WITH ‍ just sit down and tell who ever ISNT driving, that they're driving now!

We ordered from Door Dash and I have to say Wow!! The food is amazing! It will become a favorite if the next time I eat there the food is the same. TY read more

Such a good date! The birria tacos were to die for. My bf got 4 other different tacos and loved them but was jealous of my birra tacos after he took a bite! They have a sauce and sides bar at the front of the restaurant so you can customize each taco!! Sauces were amazing too! Highly recommend!!! read more

The steak fajitas are easily a top 3 meal I've ever eaten. There is no where else on the east coast I'd rather spend my money. Every time I eat here I leave a new man. This food would make Trump love Mexicans. read more

El Primo Taquieras - Fajitas Asada - Mexican Near Me - Salisbury, Maryland

Terrible, they cannot even make an authentic Mexican sandwich. Don't advertise as Mexican cuisine if you are not cooking it authentic, but more Americanized! Clean up the place better and make sure the blinds, walls are cleaned before opening the restaurant again. The only decent thing was the horchata, but couldn't understand how the cinnamon and sugar were at the bottom of the drink. Never coming back. read more

If you know how lucky yall are to have this around in this earth, good... if not go get your head checked foo! My absolute favorite taco filling is saudero and I've not been so lucky finding it living back on the east coast. The salsa bar here to is something to be shouted a out and adored ( I wake up in cold sweats sometimes having a primal kinda need for this one old lady who had this salsa that was like dirt is consistency and flavor of the sun and gold and all things right in the world) they have that here too!!!!! Stumbling into this place after having to snag a unique color siding and driving here from Fredrick after being volentold by the office Not sure how often I'm going to be making this a regular kind of stop living in Virginia but I'll gladly make that 2/3 hour trip twice for this place read more

Authentic carne asada street tacos with mandarin fruit flavored Jarritos soda. Truly the tacos are the star of the show that will keep me coming back. The real deal. You get two warm fresh tortillas layered on top of one another with sliced beef, diced white onion, chopped cilantro, pineapple, and lime. I add green salsa to my open taco. Reminds me of the tacos in San Diego. The meat is so tender and flavored so well. The best tacos in Salisbury. They also offer Ojo, cachete, and sesos tacos (cow's eye, cheek, and brain). Most tacos are $2.50 so reasonable for a freakin' fantastic taco! I only wish that they offered carne Asada French fries... read more

The food is really good and the staff are very friendly. Also very cheap if you eat on Tuesdays.

Service heVery nice the workers were pleased help me. And they seemed very happy there were flys in the restaurant about 2 or or 3. Decorations were nice. However the burrito i ordered tasted average but fell apart in my hand ending up in a big sloppy mess. The horchata was amazing i strongly recommend but the chips were overdone and the salsa was just red water. They also had a bar for topping that was nice. The food was ok but the drinks are amazing. read more

This place is legit real deal great tasting Mexican food. My wife and I moved recently to this area from Texas and this is one of the best Mexican restaurants we have found. It is now our favorite. The staff are all very friendly and courteous with great service. read more

This place has good food ...BUT..... THE SERVICE .... horrible! especially the cashier lady who I've put in the pictures.The menu is in Spanish , and unfortunately I can't read everything . She was so rude when we asked questions about things we couldn't read and understand, we even caught her rolling her eyes at us at one point along with saying rude comments. I love supporting small business but will not support one that can not offer common courtesy to its PAYING customers. But yeah other than that, the Birria tacos were scrumptious!! read more

The food here is delicious! Small joint with a cozy small business vibe. Everything is great but I tried the Molcajete for the first time and WOW! It's full of refried black beans, a variety of meats from carne asada to chicken to shrimp. It comes with a small plate of rice. My only advice, eat this on an empty stomach. read more

Prices are reasonable and it was a great spot to indulge in some birria Tacos. This was my first experience eating a Birria Taco. The service is attentive. There is a salad bar near the cash register, where you can pick onions, cilantro, cut radishes, cucumbers and sauces to fill your Taco. It was a generous offer and comes free with Taco orders. A lot of local people were there and it gave me confidence in the food and it seemed popular. The decor and seating is simple but sufficient for a quick meal. read more

The food is ok. I wouldn't say something special. The carne asada burrito and carne asada taco has lots of fat, I found myself spitting out most of it cause I was cheating fat. Also the carne asada itself fat as well. The al pastor tacos were just ok. I liked that they had a little food bar to grab sauces, onions, etc. overall it wasn't great but not that bad either I'll prob return. read more

What a great find !!!! We were out on a Saturday looking for lunch and wanted something different / new to us. Walked in and knew the food would be good. We had chicken fajitas and fish tacos - everything was very very good. They also have a salsa bar where you can choose your heat - just know their 'hottest' is not very hot - if you want VERY hot, use one of the pepper sauces they have. Service was very good as well and I think for 2 of us with sodas was about $50 with tip - not bad - actually good - cause the food was that good. We will be back many times..... read more

Good food. Good service. Decent prices. Went for the first time recently. It's in a kind of out of the way strip mall area. Wasn't sure how it would be based in location and outside appearance. Super pleasantly surprised! Awesome carnitas and birria tacos. They have a topping bar for condiments like lettuce, onions, radishes etc and 4 salsas/sauces. Pineapple water was delicious too. We are going back soon! read more

Great tasty authentic mexican restaurant. Wonderful service, clean, and spacious. Watched take-out traffic come in and out like a revolving door while dining in the restaurant. A hidden gem, worth checking out if you're in the area. read more

Great place to come and eat! I loved the food I come here often and it never disappoints. Would 100% recommend!!

Stopped in driving through salisbury and it did not disappoint! The food was delicious, the service was great and we didn't have to wait long at all. Will definitely have to come back. read more

Awesome super authentic Taquiera! Loved it, it was like being back on the west coast! Can't wait to visit again! This place is off the beaten path and is the kind of place you find only by a friend of a friend recommending it. Truly a hidden gem! The salsas are all delicious and there's options for everyone... spicy to mild! I tried five different types of meats and must say the steak was my overall favorite, which is surprising as I thought the Al Pastor would be my favorite as it usually is! The steak was well seasoned and very tender, I'd recommend it on tacos or the GORDITA! The staff was great and was able to answer all the questions we had! Also, be sure to try their Horchata, they give it to you in a small pitcher (which is a very large amount for one person) but it wasn't to sweet. read more

blown away by this authentic, delicious, off the beaten trail taqueria. The tacos al pastor, chicken tacos, and steak tacos were tasty and filling. My wife ordered the burrito al pastor and it was packed with flavor. The top of the mountain though was the flan, a true custard with a wonderful bite that strikes the balance of what a flan should be. This is a gem in the Salisbury area. A must go. read more

Best authentic Mexican food in town. From street food to slow cooked meats, this place has it all. You won't be disappointed! Tip them well, let's keep them in business! read more

I live in San Diego, a city renowned for its authentic Mexican food. Happened upon this place while on a trip out East, and I will tell you the tacos are as good as anything I've ever had in California, Mexico or anywhere else. Also outstanding are the homemade salsas, guacamole, and pretty much everything else they make, I suspect. If I lived in DC, I honestly would consider driving down to this place for lunch. It's that good. Pro tip: go on the weekend for barbacoa. So so so good. read more

We came here at about 330 on Saturday. We were going to eat there, but there was no alcohol, so we opted for take out. Wife ordered Carne Asada, and I ordered a Taco and Burrito. The food was wonderful but if you don't speak Spanish, there is about half of the Menu you will want to google on your phone. When you order the Tacos the toppings are up front but my wife thinks that hot peppers were hidden in the chopped onions. I enjoyed the food more than she did because I can handle the heat. As we read the Menu the place filled up with Hispanics, and I was the only white guy in the place, my wife being Asian. I enjoyed the brief adventure, because this seems to be the most authentic Mexican Restaurant around. The atmosphere is very casual, while the smiling waitresses are pleasant and helpful. Of the three orders, I prefer the burrito and plan on getting more of them in the future, (to go). read more

This place has a really good Taco Tuesday deal. My order has been messed up a lot of times (not put in, part of the order missing) and I noticed that the food isn't always consistent with the sauces they provide, toppings, or even quality. However, even if some weeks the tacos are better than others they are always delicious so I keep coming back. The steak and pork tacos are the best! read more

First time and last time my family and I come here. We were heading back from our beach trip and was in the mood for some tacos and I found this little place on the way home. We were excited to some tacos since we hadn't ate all day and it was the worst $55 I've spent. The tacos de Lengua were the worst. The meet was sour it felt expired. Then the carne asada tacos had no flavor what's so eager I tried adding hot sauce and lime and it still didn't taste well. We also had a fajita and the refreíd beans were sour. I would if gone inside if I had ate it before I left the parking lot. Im not the one to post reviews but this one was necessary. My experience here was bad. read more

Most legit and authentic Mexican food I have ever had. Definitely a hole in the wall, family operated, super casual place to eat- which is why I chose it. I will be back!! read more
