Customer Reviews
I visited Primo Cantina several times in the last month or so, and verything we ordered was amazing. The standout for me was the 'Bandera' style burrito, Burrito Mexicano. Not only was the presentation stunning with the red, white (queso), and green sauces, but the flavors were perfectly balanced. The rolled tacos were another highlight—perfectly crispy and topped with plenty of fresh queso fresco and guacamole. We also tried the enchiladas verdes and a California bowl, and the quality of the ingredients across the board was top-notch. The heat levels were just right—flavorful and authentic without being overbearing. Even the sides of rice and refried beans were delicious and well-prepared. The food is vibrant, fresh, and filling.

Primos was great! Cannot recommend it enough. We were seated quickly and given fresh, warm tortilla chips with salsa. The jalapeño pineapple margarita had the perfect sweet/spicy flavor. The Mexi-skins appetizer was lovely as well (ate too quickly for a picture). And we shared a HUGE portion of chicken fajitas for 2. We could tell that everything was fresh and house made, NOT processed and over-salty. As for desserts, the fried ice cream was my favorite but my partner preferred the fried cheesecake. We also had the opportunity to talk with the owner who was an incredibly nice, genuine guy! Great atmosphere. We can’t wait to go back, especially come summer!
Primo Cantina is a nice update to the previous Mexican restaurant at this location. The service was great. Food came out quickly. We have guacamole and ceviche apps. The guacamole was freshly made. The ceviche was decent. Chips and salsa were good. My entree was a pick three-taco, burrito and enchilada. All were good. The draft beer was nice and cold. The margarita was pretty good too. Overall it was a good experience.
It's been open about 3 months. No one waiting on us after the hostess sat us down for too long of a while. Hmmm. Salsa and chips are out, a long 16 minutes after being seated by a random staffer. We asked the staffer if we could order. She doesn't take orders. She said our waitress would be with us to take our order soon. Our waitress ran off after bringing our drinks. We asked the same staffer from earlier to get our waitress, this waiting is running long for a Mexican restaurant. Food order is finally in 27 minutes later. Our waitress was attentive and on top of things, once she connected with us. Ordered Guacamole, rolled tacos with side of beans only, Three grilled chicken street tacos with black bean side and Sonoran ranchero with black beans and no cheese. $65.67 The chips are
My new favorite Mexican place! Such a great quality food and service. The store is clean, great music, great atmosphere, and managers that check in as well. Very professional. I’ll definitely bring my family back here many more times! Highly recommend the steak fajitas. A+++
