Great one on one customer service. I am there every Tuesday and Friday. I go for their tacos priced at $.69 each They have a welcoming vibration at Primos. Hey Primos.... gracias para ti read more

Delicious food and friendly staff! I stopped by Primo Foods for the first time while my car was being serviced nearby during lunch. I ordered the carne asada burrito with chicharron. Never had chicharron in a burrito before and it was so good. I really liked that it was packed with veggies like pickled carrots instead of just being loaded with beans it felt more balanced and flavorful. Overall, I'm very happy with my meal and will definitely be back to try the $0.99 tacos! read more

Every bit worth the money spent. We occasionally stop through one of their locations to get BBQ or maybe some party trays of carnitas, carne asada, or even a taco or burrito. This morning's breakfast burrito satisfied two appetites heading to our Saturday morning soccer tournament. Hard to beat the price. Yum!!! CritDicks read more

Yep. Taco Tuesday here is next level. Amazing prices and amazing tacos. I keep getting the adobada because it's fire . The staff are friendly and helpful. Be ready for a long line if you come at any busy time (lunch/dinner). It moves relatively quick but could take 30 min Their smoked meat is good too! So many reasons to keep coming back read more

My daughter recommended going and getting the Tuesday $.69 tacos special. She raved about the Carne Asada and Carnitas as well as their homemade hot sauce. I went there today and was amazed at what a wonderful little gem of a Mexican market Primo is. There wasn't too long of a line, service was quick, and everyone that I engaged with their was really nice. They were serving samples of their fruit juices that they make as well as their amazing barbecue tri-tip. I picked up a half a pound of that because it was so amazing and worth the $22 a pound. I was also amazed at their Carnitas and Carne Asada street tacos. They put plenty of protein, didn't find any fat, and they'll top it with onions and cilantro with sliced lime and salsa packets on the side. This is one of the best taco Tuesday's deal for quality and value! Enjoy read more

I have been to the primos in oceanside and the other location in vista an uncountable amount of times. I love it. But, today I decided to go to this newly opened one as its closest to my house. First time going here. I ordered 9 tacos in total of carne asada, fish, and birria. When I got home and unpacked my plates, the carne asada plate had yellow, chewed gum right next to the tacos. I picked it up, smelled it, and squished it and there is no mistake it was gum. I had to throw the whole plate away. I've quite literally never had something like this happen before, but this completely ruined my experience. I really didn't want to write this review, but hopefully something can change about the standards of preparing the food. read more

Primos has the best deals on Taco Tuesday! 69 cent tacos! They also have this deal on Fridays. The service is fast and friendly. There's a lot of things they offer at this store. There's also Auga Fresca and bbq. I always forget to take pictures of my purchases, lol. I'm always so hungry when I get here that I just munch on the food with the quickness. read more

Went in because every time I drive by the smell is wonderful. Was so disappointed with the babyback and beef ribs. they were overcooked and charred to almosi inedible. Ribs are supposed to be juicy and tender. I spent $60 for what I had to trash half of. Don't know if this is standard for their ribs, but if they burn them they shouldn't sell them. Never going back. read more

The mini tacos were great. However, the employee serving them should find another job, he clearly isn't interested in providing any customer service to customers. I ordered 20 tacos for my French quests, I asked for rice and beans and he said the were out of rice and beans. This was an hour before closing. He provided no salsa or the toppings, cilantro and onions I asked for on the side. Somehow the cashier was able to get me rice and beans. It's probably been 5 years since I was last at a Primos. Same crappy customer service as then. If you don't want to serve gringas just say so. I'll never go back and make sure anyone asking knows how awful this place is. read more

Seriously the best Mexican market you will ever come across. Prices are amazing, everyone working has a great attitude and is incredibly helpful. Vegetables, meats, and burritos are made fresh and top notch! We are so grateful to have stumbled upon this local gem! We will be coming back every chance we get! read more

$.69 tacos every Tuesday and Friday! No need to cook get there early. However, long line moves fast

I freaking love this place! You can't beat 69 cent taco Tuesdays and 99 cent tacos every day all the other days! Great quality food and their tacos are sooooo delicious yummy! You can't compare this place to any other place in the city read more

Breakfast burrito is only 6$ before 12pm, half the price of other Mexican restaurants, and it's genuinely one of the best breakfast burritos I've ever had, filled to the brim(pause) and thick/big as hell. It's genuinely bigger and tastes better than other Mexican places that charge 12 dollars for a breakfast burrito. read more

What a deal on Tuesdays and Fridays, 69 cent tacos! First time here, had carne asada and pollo asada tacos, great! Double tortillas and fresh cilantro and onion, can't be beat. Can't wait to go back and try other types, pastor for sure and Elote. Giant baked potatoes, great bbq'd meats. They gave me a sample of bbq'd brisket, melts in your mouth tender. read more

I have enjoyed the primo bbq for several years. Coming home from work I could see the smoke from the bbq which meant it was primo time. Excellent ribs. And the sauce was awesome. We've also used them to feed our family gatherings. A good feast. And I've tried the ceviche and desserts. Yum. I've also been to the oside store. Bbq and tasty tacos. read more

The bbq was excellent and the samples were a highlight. This is an all around great business and they have a great taco Tuesday deal.

We stopped in for the hot lunch choices today. The server was the younger gentleman at 1145 am. He was very friendly and helpful, exceeding our expectations. The cashier needs to be trained by him : ) ! read more

The .69¢ tacos on Tuesday and Fridays are a great deal, but I think the burrito deal on Wednesday is an even better value. Got a carne asada and a birria burrito. Both were bomb. Love this shop. read more

I would give this place ten stars if I could. Absolutely insane experience. Saw the ad for $0.69 tacos on Tuesday and Fridays. "I gotta check this out." They were not playing around!!! I got three tacos Al Pastor, Carne Asada, and chicken. They are street taco size, which is my favorite. Nice flavor and made fresh at the deli counter. There was a gentleman giving out free samples of BBQ Tritip. Out of this world. What is this place??? With a soda and three tacos I spent $3.91... if feel like I was transported to 1984 when the American dream was alive and well. I feel bad I didn't buy more stuff. Definitely going to pick up a steak there this week. I love you guys and will see you soon. -Malcolm read more

Great little market with all sorts of things to try. Guacamole and ceviche are made on premise and delicious. The staff was also very nice.

Friendly place for sure lots of samples when you come in, but the food was not good to me. It wasn't bad just offered nothing for me, I ordered three chicken tacos. Chicken had no flavor. Tortillas were really small. Only offered onions and cilantro to go on it and no lettuce no cheese well actually it would be extra for taco Tuesday. Big disappointment for me read more

We love their Tuesday and Friday 69-cent to-go tacos. Delicious, small (street tacos) but full of meat and flavor! Fresh lime, onion and cilantro, green and red sauces to add at your discretion included. I thought they were well worth the buy and 3 or 4 filled me up. You can't lose; give it a try! read more

First came here for the 69 cent tacos on Tuesday and Friday. I try to go every Tuesday and Friday it is a great deal and the tacos are good street type tacos. Which means they are small double tortilla, with onions and cilantro and your choose of protein. They have many different types of meat I would recommend the Cabeza (cow head), Pescado (fish), the el pastor (marinated pork) and carne asada. They also have great agua fresca my personal favorite is also pina (pineapple). The employees are also very friendly, since the line is typically long for the tacos they come around with samples which I think is very nice. It can feel a bit cramped at times with so many people in the store but no way to get around it because it is a popular place. read more

This place is brand new. There is another store several months is away. It is clean & well organized. The mea department looks like it has a great selection of fresh meats. read more

The tacos were delicious and SO INEXPENSIVE! The agua fresca is sooo fresh. the woman was giving out so many samples and there were sooo many types of juices. the store was popping off at 11:00 AM so that shows how good it is read more

My family decided on 2 lbs of birria, cabeza, and carne asada. We also bought the tortillas required for that much meat, and everything was absolutely perfected. If you don't speak Spanish make sure you're clearly understanding and being understood because things can go wrong otherwise. Altogether, an amazing place with some of the best prepared meats available at great prices. read more

High quality ingredients, cooked to order, friendly staff, one stop shop. So many good things to say about Primo Foods Market. Today we went in for lunch, took about 10-12 minutes for our Calj burrito. Inside they sell fresh fruit & veggies, heated meals like rice, ribs, etc. They sell soda, water, agua Fresca, juice, cheeses, just everything I would need. Prices are low and food quality is high. All staff smiles and greets you. They speak English & Spanish really well. Highly highly recommend! read more

How can they make brisket like my Jewish mom? As far as I know she never visited Mexico......strange. The tri-tip is excellent. Taco Tuesday's and Thursdays are the best cheap lunch around. read more

Wow. What a find. 69¢ tacos on Tuesday and Friday? I had to try it. Turns out, it's worth it. Where else can you get 6 tacos, a filling meal, for $4.50? I thought the good days were gone, but primo brought 'em back! Their birria is some of the best around. The place is clean and lively. Someone else in a review mentioned a man giving free tri-tip samples. I got one too when I first walked in. Like, is this a mini Hispanic Costco? I browsed all the other things they have and I want to try it all. Prices are great all around. The tacos are only 99¢ any other day and I'd gladly pay the extra 20 cents. read more

The $.69 taco deal on Tuesday/Friday feels like stealing. Insanely good tacos at a truly unbeatable price. Ended up ordering 3 to start, was so good I came back for 3 more. Asada & Adobada were my favorites read more

They have truly authentic TJ street tacos (and burritos, ceviche, and much of the usual MX restaurant offerings), and both the food and service are excellent. My friend & I got 4 tacos each (that's 8 tacos) for a grand total of $6.00! In the year 2024, where else north of the border are you getting a full belly for three bucks? Nowhere except this place, as far as I can tell ... there are a few Primo locations in North County, but IMO, this spot is the best of them. read more

This place is the best mexican market I have been too.. I like the one off Emerald put this location has the tacos on point!! Super Clean and Super Friendly... I love that they have a Primos here now read more
