    Braised Beef Burrito
    Kevin C.

    Ordered through DoorDash and everything showed up right on time and still hot and fresh! The food itself was honestly really good, the meat was flavorful and well cooked in my burrito. The tots stayed surprisingly crispy after delivery. My only real gripe is the portion sizes, which felt very very small for what you're paying, especially the burrito which could've used a lot more like rice to make it feel filling. I'm not sure if it's the same in person, but it definitely left me still hungry afterward. Overall the quality of the food was superb and just next time I probably need to order two of everything haha.

    Al Pastor Burrito
    Billy T.

    Wanted to try an authentic Mexican foodie place on Fillmore and not in the mission district for once, while I was on a work break and will definitely say... this was the opposite experience. Staff is very kind and super quick with the order however, I just wish the quality of the food was up to par with its service. The cashier that day was very fun to converse with ice breakers, a little die roll game for a chance for free food. Great place if you're looking for a corporate lunch bulk order through food apps, and/or if you can afford this. On to the foodies: Al pastor burrito An over priced $16 burrito with just beans and cheese and meat. If you wanted to make it "primo style" to add on some pico, guac and veggies it'll ring you closer to $20. Their salsa options from non spicey to hella spicey was basically tomato puree to licking a pepper flake.

    birria bowl with cheese guac and sour cream
    Cher H.

    I Uber eats for dinner. I had a promo for buy one get one and so I was like hmmm birria bowl love that I just topped it off with salad when I got it. I got it with the extra sour cream, guac and cheese. The cheese I wasn't expecting just shredded American cheese blend. I'm not sure if it was me but my food was just overly acidic like it was a lot of lime or lemon in it. 32 bucks for two bowls delivery that's not bad the meat was really good but i'm going to probably do tacos next to really taste the meat also will be dining in to see if food tastes different next time there was a green sauce like a cilantro sauce or something. I don't know what it was but it was delicious. It was a little 2 ounce cup. I want to know what that is lol I will review again when I dine in

    Chips & Pico de Gallo (great crunch)
    Johnny S.

    The three of us went to this slightly confusing establishment where you can technically sit at the adjacent cocktail bar (aka The Snug) and the waiters from the Snug bring you food from taco primo after you QR-code it. Anyway we got the taco salad, the chicken and al pastor burrito, with a side of chips (see images). The burrito was sort of small but not complaining since I am dieting for the New Years Resolution so def not for the Super option lovers. And also...no water from the restaurant is diabolical

    Breakfast Bowl
    A O.

    Lime Cured Cabbage? Churro Fries? Breakfast Bowls? What's not to be curious about? So far my experience has only been with the breakfast bowls. My diet is primarily proteins, vegetables and I carb cycle, so a quickly made fresh breakfast bowl is perfect for my work and workout grind. I sometimes grab a small order of oats and berries from Joe & The Juice to pair with their breakfast bowls. I've had 1 every morning for the first 4 days of the new year. It's basically a deconstructed breakfast burrito without the tortilla. A base bowl comes with 4 eggs. I will eventually try one of their salads. If you order chipotle or delivery often, then this team definitely deserves a chance. Especially if you chase breakfast tacos and burritos, which are also options. It's a pickup and to go service so keep that in mind. Please excuse the picture, it had already moved around in my bag when I turned around to get updated pictures of their menu. It's clean and I like kitchens I can see from the floor whether I'm standing or sitting. It's something I've adapted towards eating at sushi bars. Nice people. They already call me by name when I walk in.

    Bacon Breakfast Taco and Chorizo Breakfast Tacos
    Kayle B.

    As a former Texan, I firmly believe that Breakfast Tacos are superior to Breakfast Burritos, but the former are hard, if not impossible to find in SF. Taco Primo provides a taste of home that tastes like home. They use La Palma flour tortillas which are perfect in general and especially for encompassing all the delicious ingredients. Their chorizo option is so good and I love their hot hot hot salsa-it has great kick.

    Chips
    Jennifer C.

    I was in the area and my partner wanted tacos, so I spotted this place and thought we'd give it a try! We're now big fans and will be back! The restaurant has a nice laidback vibe and long bar. We adore the turtle mascot printed on the menu and parchment paper. We got the chips and tried one taco each. (We opted out of the primo as we're trying to be more health conscious). The chips were well fried and salted nice and evenly. The tacos - wow the tortilla was delicious and the meats and the one vegan jackfruit were tender and flavorful. It did take a long time to receive our tacos after the chips came out pretty quickly and a while to find a server for the check, so maybe not the best place if you're in a hurry. There was a loft area with a birthday celebration - seems like it'd be a great place for a private party.

    Chicken bowl
    Steven S.

    The food I had delivered to my address from here was awesome! The chicken bowl was amazingly delicious. The service and the ambiance of the restaurant is also great from what I have read. I highly recommend people come here and i guarantee you will love the food there. I wish I could give them 10 stars

    2 braised beef tacos.  Kind of small for $10 but I guess this is inflation and city living
    Kristine A.

    While it's clean and good, I didn't see the ratio of food to cost here. Each taco was almost $5. Also I preferred a steak carne asada taco but the beef option was only braised beef. My friend's burrito was also made incorrectly.. he asked for no salsa but they put salsa pico de gallo inside. We were not impressed at all. Next time we will just go to the mission.

A coworker recommended this place, and now I recommend it to everyone. What stands out is the balance--everything is done well. The meat is rich and flavorful, the tacos themselves are just as good, and the consommé ties everything together perfectly. I've tried places where one part is strong but something else falls short, but not here. You also get free sides like onions, cactus, radish, and beans, which make the meal even better. I've been coming back ever since, and I can easily finish three tacos in one sitting. On my most recent visit, I had two birria tacos and tried their birria ramen. It was surprisingly good--comforting and flavorful, more like a homemade dish than anything instant. For drinks, I've tried all their jugos, and the jamaica is the standout--get it in a large. Service: Friendly, efficient, and straightforward. Orders come out at a good pace, and the staff keep things moving even when it's busy. Ambience: The space has a Frida Kahlo-inspired design, which adds character and makes it feel lively and unique. There's one restroom available. Parking: Parking can be a bit difficult in the area, so expect to walk a little--but it's worth it once you get your food. If you're serious about finding a really good birria taco, this is one to try.

This place is famous for their burritos and especially the "Dorado style," which tastes amazing -- BUT what they don't clearly disclose anywhere is that the Dorado style burrito is cooked in pork lard unless you specifically ask for it "dry" or with vegetable oil. As someone who does not eat pork for religious reasons, finding that out after already eating there was honestly really upsetting. And the frustrating part is that there is NO clear sign or disclosure telling customers this. If I never asked, I would have had no idea. I actually still like this spot and appreciate that they at least offer a dry/vegetable oil option if you ask, but customers should not have to investigate ingredients themselves to avoid pork. Jewish, Muslim, vegetarian, and other customers deserve transparency. A simple sign or note on the menu saying that Dorado style is prepared with pork lard by default would solve this issue completely. Great food, but this absolutely needs to be disclosed better. One of my all time favorite spots in general.
