A neighbor posted the menu on Next Door which was really helpful. The food was wonderful! I did have to heat the enchiladas when I arrived home. Another reviewer stated that the spices were neither traditional nor Hispanic. The flavors were very distinctive and delicious and I would probably characterize as fusion although I could not pinpoint the flavors. Generous portions and good price point . We'll be back soon. Please support our local restaurants especially new ones.

This place is worth trying. They have large portions for convenient prices. Consistently neat and with fantastic mood. Would recommend to others.

This place is absolutely lovely and the food was amazing!! Our server Silva was so nice and friendly. And the food so full of flavor. The pozole was so good and perfect. And during these hard times with COVID, they did a great job to feel safe and everything was clean. I can't wait to go back!

The wifey was craving Mexican food and we happened to stumble into this place as we were driving by. So glad we decided to stop in. First off the place looks so cool inside. There's outdoor seating and TV's. They even had a DJ playing music out front. Don't know if that a regular thing or just for Taco Tuesday. The food! Amazing! The Carnitas and the Carne Asada is some of the best I've EVER had!!! Can't wait to go back and try more things on their menu. I was eyeing the HB street dog , looks so good, definitely gonna try that next time. Finally, the staff was so nice and friendly. Actually met the owners, and they were sooo nice. Apparently this place opened in March right before the COVID shutdown . We need to support small businesses like these to keep them around. I promise you will love their food! I'll be back for sure!

If you try Primo Cantina once, you'll end up being a regular. Many unique dishes and always delicious. Owners are fantastic, great service staff, and a refreshing atmosphere. Go there tonight!

First time there. The green chicken enchiladas were awsome, rice and beans on point. Also had chorizo queso fundido delicious.My husband had the pozole he said it was good, the flavor was on point. For dessert we had a fried chimichanga stuffed with ice cream, delicious.Service and atmosphere was great .We will be back.

Their brunch menu and drinks are delicious. We had the chips, salsa and queso with chorizo and it was all sooooo good. I also had the carnitas enchiladas with green sauce which I had to take to go because I was pretty full from appetizers and drinks. They only have beer & wine items but the watermelon margarita (wine based) and sangria are both fresh and fruity. Overall, very pleased, I will come back!

Would have given them a 4 star but service was slow...despite only about 4 tables that we saw...taking > 15 for beer to be serve is not acceptable and 45 min for the food to come.The wait staff and owner ,Amour was very attentive and friendly might have given a 4 star review but you go to a restaurant for food and atmosphere. 4.5 for atmosphere, there's a side outdoor patio and they have even set up an outdoor area in front parking lot , Covid safe spacing.My ordered of carne asada, came with jalapeños colewslaw ,which I'm not a spicey person,so ask to have jalapeños left out...(which waitress said she would make note of that request)but it was in the slaw -had to pick out several large pieces! Carna asada was a the smaller size, meat size was slightly larger than my palm,and I'm a small Asain . Rice was tasty .house chips and salsa on point!Hubby ordered salmon, on supposedly spicey black beans sauce which he said was slightly overcooked on his the edges and sauce wasn't spicey to him.Owner realized that food was long on coming so she threw in a free dessert.Stuff chimicurros was sweet and yummy.This is newly open restaurant, had only beenopen about 1 month before the Covid shutdown...pricing is slightly moderate to high ,which I dont mind for quality food and atmosphere, if everything is on point.This was our 2nd time here...1st time was much better...Might give this place another try? But if not improve...that 3rd time would be our last

New place in 2020 -- so glad they survived COVID Closures. The food is fresh and the chef knows what he is doing (experience shows). Give them a try! The salsas are homemade and you can taste the fresh guajillo and tomatillo. I can't wait to see what they add to the menu as they grow.

Beautifully done, tasty menu with indoor patio and outdoor seating available. The mojado burrito is very good.

This place is amazing! This service is great and they check on you all the time! This is not your normal Mexican food place. This is your authentic Mexican food restaurant! I had their carne asada quesadilla and it was to die for! Not too greasy. Their red sangria is very tasty!! I recommend this place! The owners even came and made sure everything was ok!!!!
