Had an amazing Chori/Pollo Burrito, two exceptional tacos, and surprisingly tasty tortas of some sort. So much food, but so delicious. Can't wait to go back read more

I recently moved from Kent Island, MD to Arlington and I've slowly been checking out local food spots to fill the a void I have with some places I miss back home. One such place was a Mexican place as my old fav Mexican place on Kent Island (Señors Chile) had great but extremely greasy birria tacos. So you can imagine my surprise when I stumbled upon this food truck that read "Tacos Los Primos". The spot made me curious. So I went to visit a friend who lives in walking distance from the spot for lunch recently. She ordered the veggie burrito and I ordered (pic below) Quesabirria tacos (no onion). When we got back I was WOW'd by not only how yummy my food was but how it wasn't oozing with grease! The consume that comes with for dipping is just enough for me personally and bursting with flavor. As you'd expect from most food trucks the service is made to order. When you go up to the counter and tell them what you want they make it fresh! The truck is parked on Rhoside Green Park (sandwiched between Courthouse and Rosslyn) so if you live in either neighborhood it's easy to access from walking distance. And since it's near an Arlington green space there's usually some seating nearby you can pop a squat and eat lunch. Given spring time is approaching this seems more doable. Just yesterday I was driving by to visit the same friend and saw a long line for this place! Most people in Arlington know how great this spot is, it is a terribly kept secret! Can't comment much on how long the line was busted as I went during a time when it was windy (but warm) and it was mid day. When I drove by it was pushing dinner time past 7pm. I love the food here! But since I live closer to the storefront location in Lyon Park I usually end up ordering food from there (review on that location is coming soon)! If you like authentic Mexican food that's fresh and delicious, you'll enjoy this spot! read more

Very popular lunchtime food truck. My family decided to stop here and enjoy the shaded Park and the good food that's served at this location. I don't have a food review. There was no vegan options and bc I need to lower my cholesterol numbers. I can't even enjoy a quesadilla right now. Maybe I'll try one in September after lab work. read more

Wow!! So I have been on the hunt to find a place that has good authentic Mexican street tacos since I moved the the DMV without much luck, but this place may be a hidden gem! First: the service was great! I explained that I've been disappointed by the Mexican food scene in the area and that I typically only get one taco at a time to try a new place out. They usually only serve 2 tacos at a time but they were kind enough to make an exception for me try! I super appreciated them letting me buy one at time, very kind! Second: I was pleasantly surprised! The meat was fresh and tender. Not super oily which I have seen at other spots! Lightly seasoned so it's not over powering the meat and it's still allowed to shine. Good call on the two tortillas and onions and cilantro on top. Another important factor was how much meat they put on the taco, it's important not to skimp out or else you're stuck eating more tortilla than the actual taco and I think they did a good job filling it up. I think a potential idea to really level it up would be to get some guacamole salsa that typically comes with street tacos! Overall, I am definitely coming back and bringing my friends with me! I'll have to update as I keep working my way thru the menu but this place shows promise which I'm excited about! Keep up the good customer service and the great quality! read more

Stopped at this food truck while visiting D.C. The staff were very friendly! We got a pastor quesadilla, a chorizo burrito, and an asada burrito. The burritos very very big, and the tortillas they used were excellent! They came with two types of sauces and were filled with rice, some lettuce, and I believe crema. The quesadilla was good as well, it had four pieces, and came with some veggies, hot sauces, and crema. Definitely worth stopping if you're looking for burritos! read more

This place is so delicious!!! As a SoCal native who really missed Mexican food, I was blown away by how yummy the tacos are here. I am obsessed, this might be my favorite taco spot yet. I recommend the chorizo taco and the lengua (beef tongue). I also liked the mixtos taco (half asada and half chorizo). They do give a big portion of meat per taco. Service is also really quick. This is also a to-go place only so it's pretty casual. They include limes, radish and mini containers of salsa verde and red salsa on the side. read more

Finally stop by the truck to give them a try and glad we did. My steak burrito was decent size and my wife's tacos were very tasty. They provided to bottle of red of green salsa to add to our liking. Sat at one of the two picnic tables adjacent to the truck and enjoyed our dinner. Today I'm trying the mixta ( assorted meats) burrito and my wife will try the birria. Staff were friendly. read more

I have been searching high and low for authentic Mexican tacos like these, ever since I left Florida over 10 years ago. I've lived in many places since then, and tried many a taco. Some were good, some were even great. But none quite satisfied that craving for a good authentic mexican taco like the ones I grew up on. Until now! These are the real deal! I tried the pastor, and mixto (steak and chorizo mixed) all the meats were tender, perfectly spiced, bursting with flavor, and free of gristle! They are cooked to order and came out piping hot. The red and green salsas are fresh, flavorful, and have just a touch of heat to them, the perfect amount of spice to complement the delicious tacos. I could go on and on about how good this place is. I FOUND MY TACOS!! I can't wait to go back and try more of their menu items. MUCHAS GRACIAS, Tacos Los Primos! What my stars mean: 5 is outstanding, memorable, a place to write home about! A must-experience. Someplace I would love to reccomend to tourists, and visit myself again and again. 4 is great, somewhere I'd love to return again and again. Back-up reccomenation for tourists. 3 is good. A solid option if I am in the area. I may reccomend to locals, but would probably leave it off my list of reccomendations for tourists. 2 is ok, but only because it a great value, unique, and/or convenient. 1 means I would not return. read more

Some of the best tacos in the DMV. Don't judge by the small truck, judge by the food.

Convenient Mexican food truck in between Court House and Rosslyn. I have walked by it many times, but my friends and I stopped by this past Tuesday evening to grab a quick dinner. They have a variety of tacos (asada, lengua, chorizo, pastor, etc.) for about 3-4 per taco (I think depending on the type of meat) as well as burritos, tortas, quesadillas, and drinks. One of my friends have stopped by this food truck pretty often and raved about their tortas, so most of us ended up getting one. In the future, I'd have to come back to try their tacos. ASADA / GRILLED STEAK TORTA - 15 These tortas weren't that big, but it was indeed very filling. The bread was definitely grilled and toasted with butter for that extra flavor. There was plenty of grilled steak which was well-seasoned and the avocado, cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, and mayo topped it off perfectly. The verde salsa was the cherry on top and I finished the whole thing and could use another one, tbh. If you're health conscious, I wouldn't recommend a torta though. This is a cheat meal kind of option. Overall, great stop for a quick dinner in the area. We were very stuffed and happy. read more

It is such a struggle to find good and reasonably priced tacos in D.C. and this truck is proof that the trick is just to leave D.C.! Birria tacos were amazing and the chicken tacos were very tasty too. 100% recommend. read more

The tacos here were amazing! I got the mixtos, lengua and the choripollo tacos. The tacos are packed with flavor and very authentic. They have a green sauce and red sauce also, both of which were great. Service wise, the food came out really quickly and there are 2 tables by the truck for people to sit, and if those are full there are also some benches right near where you can sit. It's very convenient and easy! There's street parking around the truck so parking isn't an issue fyi! I definitely am going to go back to try the quesadilla next time! read more

I am always in search of a good burrito. That's my dream and that's my mission of life. To find a good burrito and chill. I am very fortunate that I live a 5 minute walk away from Tacos Los Primos because not only their tacos are amazing but they also have the most ginormous burritos. You can see the pictures and that the burrito is bigger than my hand. My hand is really big btw. Not only it is big but it is generously filled with rice and beans that are beyond tasty, your choice of meat and more. I love to stop by once a week and I love eating from here. read more

Tacos Al Pastor were really good. We were the only white folks in line at the time. So, you know that's a good sign.

Very tasty Tacos! I was headed to the truck around the corner, but it happened to be closed, in the mood for Tacos I ended up at this truck, and am not mad that I did. I love the simplicity of street tacos. Sometimes the tastiest thing can be simple, and street tacos are the perfect example. The simplicity of them makes the meat the star of the show. I go 1 Pastor, and 2 Lengua (beef tongue) tacos. The onions, cilantro, and sauce went well with, but didn't over power the meat. The menu is simple, and the workers were friendly. The food came out quick, and was good. They have a small table and some seats/ stools available for seating, and they're right next to a grassy park area. What more do you need from a food truck? Go and enjoy! read more

This is a very good taco truck experience in Arlington, VA. The first time I visited was a Sunday evening and surprisingly the truck had a line of customers waiting to be served. To me this was a good indication that prepare good food. The ordering process was simple and where the truck is stationed there are a couple picnic tables off to the side for customers to eat their food on-site. The tacos here are delicious. I've tried their Asada and Pastor tacos, both of which are delicious and had all of the appropriate Mexican flavors you'd expect. I've also tried their quesadillas. On two separate occasions I ordered the chicken quesadilla and both times they were delicious. More importantly the way in which the quesadillas were prepared was consistent both times. What I like about their quesadillas is they just don't load them with melty cheese for the visual effect. It seems they use a Mexican blend cheese and an adequate amount. The flavor is present which I appreciate most. This isn't the normal cheesy quesadilla that is flavorless. Overall a very good experience. Give them a try. read more

My boyfriend also tried the choripollo which he said was his favorite The cooks who run the truck are so nice, they are such hard workers and serve food from 10-10 every day. The have a few tables so when the weather is nice I'd definitely eat right outside the truck read more

My bf & I found this food truck on accident one day it's parked by a cute neighborhood and there's lots of seating to eat and chill. The workers are super nice & they're very friendly.

It's definitely an amazing spot and if you're looking for good authentic tacos definitely recommend. We been going there once a week for the past 3-4 weeks food is always fresh and tasty read more

My favorite place to get tacos in the DMV area! I'd recommend calling to order for pickup, otherwise there's a chance you might have to wait for a little bit. Everything here is amazing! Our favorites are the lengua and carne asada tacos! Honorable mentions- al pastor and birria tacos. The burritos are MASSIVE and will probably last you two meals. If you're planning to eat there, beware, there's only one picnic bench next to the food truck. read more

Great tacos with a good selection! As a pescatarian, I appreciate the fish and shrimp tacos on the menu. Both are excellent! They have fresh red and green salsa on the tables. Depending on the time of day, there may be a line but I've never waited more than ~12 minutes. read more

Local Mexican truck in Arlington - overall 4/5 stars. Carne and chicken tacos: Both were dry and needed sauce to add flavor. The tacos are pretty minimal, chicken/carne, onions and tortilla. Onions are on the side, as well as hot and verde sauce. If you're on a health kick, these are the tacos for you - you won't feel stuffed after eating these tacos. Carne Burrito: overall good - needs more seasoning, specifically spice. Burrito is $15 dollars, so a little on the pricy side, but adequate size. There is also a foldable table, and a small park right in front of the truck, so can eat outside on a great day! They do take card. read more

I'm a very picky person when it comes to food. So when I say these are one of the best tacos I've had, I'm not kidding!!! The meat was slow cooked and wasn't dry at all. Everything was seasoned to perfection and dipping it into the consommé was the cherry on top!! Service was decent, felt very homey. Fairly priced ($4) a taco, and they also accepted Apple Pay. Give it a try!! read more

Do not sleep on the Tacos Los Primos food truck!!!! Amazing food and great quality!! Please stop by when you see it you will not regret it!!!! First off the men who were running the food truck were so kind to us. We were talking with them and asked for recommendations on how many tacos to order. Good people! I ordered a chicken burrito and my fiancé ordered some tacos! They recommended four tacos for him so he got 1 steak, 2 chicken, and 1 chorizo. How was the food? It was awesome!!! My burrito was huge and it was tasty. It had all the works: chicken, rice, beans, sour cream, some lettuce, and some avocado mixed in there! What makes it so good is the quality of the ingredients! Everything tasted so fresh! My fiancé loved his tacos and we agreed that this is the best Mexican food we've had in the area. For sure!! read more

Good tacos. Very calm place in a park. They have a couple of tables to sit. They have quesadillas, tortas and burritos too.

Tacos taste the best from a food truck!! I had the lengua taco, which is sometimes sold out, and the pollo taco. They messed up my order and gave me pollo instead of asada which is the reason why I'm not giving 5 stars. The burrito was ok in my opinion but my friend lives for it. Honestly the pollo was still good and I enjoyed it so I would still go back despite the mishap. read more

Food truck beside a small park, works out great. Quick fulfillment of order. I look forward to returning.

Ate here with my girlfriend on the fourth of July. We had 3 fish tacos, 1 beef taco, 1 pork taco, 1 chicken quesadilla, and 1 beef burrito. Initially, the food tasted incredible albeit we waited a long time for it. However it was only about 2 hours later where both of our stomachs began hurting! We both attributed it to those tacos we had. We later brought the chicken quesadilla and beef burrito home to eat later and that also made our stomachs feel funny! Your mileage may vary, but me and my girlfriend had a poor experience last night. Perhaps the most humiliating part was that I spent $59 for all of that disappointing food from a food truck. read more

Top 1% percentile food. The lengua is tender and juicy, the best lengua I've had outside of what my wife makes (an impossibly high bar). The tortilla and toppings (onions and cilantro) complement the meat perfectly. The taste transports me to a special mental place of pure bliss, so service or ambiance was not relevant or noticeable. My wife informs me that service is smooth and there's comfortable outdoor seating in the shade. read more
