This is a wonderful gem of a restaurant. Great for meeting up with friends, or feeding hungry kids. My kids love the burritos. The staff is so nice. It's a festive hang.

My cousin and I come here for drinks as you can see. They make them right. Strong and tasty. Not watered down like (won't name names). The food? So far just had chips, salsa and guacamole cuz didn't want to dilute the goood feeling I'm paying for. Chao mein all! Give Haxel a huge tip.Ps the decor is fun but not upscale so no need to dress to impress. Only thing they require is shoes, and preferably a friendly attitude cuz it is hard waiting tables in Brentwood where folks feel untitled.Pss went back in the evening with my family on a Saturday night and was so low energy. Killed our happy vibe. Maybe stick to happy hour.

Great food, service, location and experience. This restaurant is exceptional, located on beautiful Montana Avenue near 14th Street. There is a nice inside and outside eating area on Montana Avenue near 14th St. You have to check out the food, it's so delicious. The waiters are so nice and make your eating experience so enjoyable. Try it you won't be disappointed.

They don't honor the coupons for guacamole. Even though the date is valid, they give a sorry excuse for not honoring their advertisement. This time the reason was that the order was made online. (The coupon clearly states "visit us at: primacantina.com"). This is false advertising at its best.

Highly recommend The Hubby & I enjoyed our first evening last Saturday at Prima's and it's a hidden for sure!! The incredible Drink menu alone is enough to inspire you to hydrate a week before, just so ya don't have to make any hard choices. And THE FOOD is outstanding!! Everything is made to order, fresh, locally sourced, and just mouthwateringly good. All from this sweet little tucked away romantic spot. Thank You Victor and Anthony for spoiling us so much that now it's a weekly thing.

Ughhh I really wish these tacos were better. It's a wonderful location, but the tortillas taste store-bought, the meat is horribly underseasoned, and the chips are stale. The guac and corn are good though, so I know they can do better!

I was expecting a burrito bowl with fajita veggies, but I ended up getting what looks and tastes like warmed up frozen veggies over rice with a quarter of an avocado. Was excited to try this new spot on the beach but am pretty disappointed.

Everything was cooked well and the outdoor seating is a plus. I left searching for some flavor and spice. Needs more picante!
