    Keto Taco (Ribeye)
    Nhi L.

    Saw this taqueria pop up when I was looking into near by shops, and I saw that their menu is similar to Taco Los Cholos. As a fan of Los Cholos, I was curious to see if these tacos would be as good since the shop is a lot closer. First impression when walking in was that the shop was clean and bright. It was fairly busy when I stopped by, but I still managed to find seating. Easy parking out front and very spacious. The cashier was really friendly and polite. She asked if it was my first time (it is) and offered an agua fresca on the house. I opted for pineapple and it was really nice and refreshing! I also noticed that there were protein options offered at Primecut that aren't offered at Los Cholos, one of which was octopus. So I ordered my usual order (arrachera taco and a ribeye keto) plus the octopus taco. The food took a bit of time to come out, which isn't an issue for me, but just to note for anyone who's in a rush or impatient. It was busy, as mentioned, and the restaurant is family owned with a smaller staff. However, the food was absolutely worth the wait! The octopus taco was so delicious; smokey, tender, and absolutely flavorful. They do not skim on the protein here. Each of my tacos were stuffed. The arrachera was a touch dry, but nothing the sauce bar cannot fix; it's hardly a dent in the experience since the flavors made up for it. The ribeye keto was amazing. I asked for medium rare and it came out just that; perfectly seasoned and juicy. Octopus: 10/10 Arrachera: 9/10 Ribeye Keto: 10/10 Pineapple Agua Fresca: 8/10 Needless to say, this is going to be my new go-to for tacos. It's so much closer than having to drive to Eastvale with tacos just as good, if not better (and bonus for the octopus one!). They def earned themselves a regular.

    1st time here, disappointed by their "well done" arrachera tacos, I specifically asked them to be well done and their response was "it already is" so imagine my surprise when I come home to picture 1 & 2. There's definitely redness in the middle still. The third picture on the gray plate is AFTER I COOKED it myself AT HOME - now that was well done. Unsure we will be back. Definitely will not be recommending to others.

    Really good New Mexican restaurant here in Rancho, the burrito was large, came out fresh, and was extremely well seasoned and tasty. Their salsa bar had a big selection of salsas that were all very good. Debbie was the highlight of our visit ! My cousin and I were there for the first time and Debbie walked us through how everything worked and gave us great recommendations. We had to take our food to-go but for the brief time we spent there it was obvious that most people order and eat there, very inviting and lots of seating. AC blows cold which is a must during the hot months.

    Tried this new Mexican taco spot and boy was it good! We got the Tuesday special--3 tacos for $7.50. You can't beat that price for quality this good. Delicious food, great value, and definitely our new go-to spot. Highly recommend checking them out! Debbie was great! Look forward to coming back for the excellent service!

    Definitely MUST try! My husband came on his own yesterday and loved it so much he brought me today. The place is clean, nice ambiance music plying and Maddie at the register had great customer service and gave us advice and suggestions that wdre very helpful. Everything we ordered was absolutely delicious! Tacos: Asada, mushroom, shrimp & adobada. Wow each one had amazing flavors and will definitely order again. The burrito bowl had Aarrachera meat, beans, cilantro & onions and I added guac. Soooo good. The meat was thick, tender and juicy with flavor! This is our new favorite spot!

    Arrachera Taco

    Rancho is lucky to have a Primecut Taqueria. If you love Tacos Los Cholos or you never got a chance to visit the one in Eastvale because of the long lines, you can just come to Primecut Taqueria. It's cleaner, there's plenty of seating, family friendly and pretty much identical menu items and salsas. There's indoor and outdoor seating and parking was easy to find, however, I suspect you'll have to park next door once it gets busy. My go-to's are one pork belly taco with the orange sauce and a costilla de res mulita, but everything here tastes great. I'd suggest going now before the rest of this town figures it out and there's a line out the door and it is worth the wait. They opened on the 4th of September and my sister was able to order via Door Dash. She went in the afternoon on the 5th and said there was no line and I went in the evening close to closing and no line. Inside it's super clean, there's a beautiful mural on the wall and it's fast-casual. There's both indoor and outdoor seating and there were about 2 flat screen televisions playing sports. I picked up my order and went straight to the salsa bar and started packing my salsas and Debbie the owner said hello to me and asked if I'm from the area. I told her no, I'm from OC and I've been to the original Tacos Los Cholos on State College, the other one in Fullerton and the Primecut in Placentia. I say all that because there's lore baby! I won't spill the tea here, but trust, it's the same great quality I've experienced at all of the locations I listed. They offer a variety of meats here that you wouldn't normally find (porkbelly, costilla de res, lobster, filet mignon, other high end meats) and the typical meats you would expect (asada, chicken, al pastor) and they're never stingy with their meats. I order their mulita and it's big and packed with meat. I once got a mulita at Dos Caballeros and it was a joke compared to this place. Some popular items that are out of the ordinary that I've seen people get are the Mexican pizza (it's pretty big, great for groups), papas locas (baked potato, fully loaded, choose your meat), and this location has nachos which Tacos Los Cholos does not. They also have keto tacos, salad and tortas. I've never had a bad meal from here or any of the other locations (Tacos Los Chlos & Prime Cut) and I've been going for over 7 years to the OC locations. They also recently opened a location in downtown Anaheim, which is down the road from Disneyland. My friends and I usually hit up the Tacos Los Cholos in Fullerton on the weekend after a night at Disney or Knott's and it's always packed and hard to find a table, but now that there's a Prime Cut in Downtown Anaheim and it's closer to Disney, I'd definitely go there instead. The grand opening for the Rancho location is on the 12th and the sooner you visit, the better.

    Amazing new taco spot! They have a great selection of proteins. I chose the ribeye, filet mignon, and shrimp, and every taco was fresh and high-quality. Freddy, who was behind the counter, was patient and kind while I decided what to order. Thank you, Freddy! Overall, the restaurant was clean, had great vibes, and served delicious food. Highly recommend!

    Baked potato
    Teresa R.

    SO good!! I ordered the baked potato and honestly started eating it before I even remembered to take a picture That's why the photo is already half eaten. The potato was loaded, the meat had so much flavor, and everything together was just really good. Definitely filling too! Service was fast and my order came out fresh and hot. I'll definitely be coming back to Primecut Taqueria. If you're thinking about getting the baked potato, get it! Oh and the inside of the place is cool! I like the vibe.

    Filet taco, ribeye taco, adobado taco
    Jessica F.

    Taqueria Primecut was such a great experience! The tacos were packed with generous portions of protein, and the flavor was absolutely amazing. You can really taste the quality and care that goes into the food. The salsa bar was also fantastic and had so much variety -- everything from different salsas to fresh onions, cilantro, limes, and more. It was the perfect way to customize every bite exactly how we wanted. A huge shoutout to Debbie and Freddie, who helped us during our visit. They were both so friendly, welcoming, and attentive, and honestly made the experience that much better. Great food paired with great service is hard to beat!

    I happened to notice this spot while looking for the post office out in rancho. I have to say, everything was top tier and I will definetely be returning.

My daughter ordered the Carne Asada burrito, and we took an Al Pastor burrito to go. The fish taco was perhaps the best I've had in a while. Apparently, it's one of their most popular items. It was light, crispy and garnished well. The shrimp taco was okay, I liked that it didn't taste fishy, and was well seasoned. On the other hand, my Al pastor taco, was completely overcooked, or, perhaps I was served what was left. They comped it at the point of sale, just because, so perhaps that explains it-I don't know. I didn't pay for it, and I didn't eat it, so thats that. Yes, I took a bite of the meat, just for this review-geesh. The rice and beans were served warm, almost room temp. I needed it hot, therefore, it was pushed to the side. I picked over it a bit, again, taking a few bites. My daughter said her burrito was okay, just a bit dry. Some sour cream or queso would've worked wonders I think. But, surprisingly, my son enjoyed his burrito, saying it was, "really good." He must've gotten a much better version of the Al pastor. Wait, I forgot to mention that the seasoned peppers are amazing, and the drinks were good too. Overall, it was a good experience. There was a guy and his wife that spoke very highly of this location, saying that had been eating there for about 15 years. The customer service was great, so the small nuisances were not a turn off. It was a good food choice and I will return. The restaurant was very clean, including the cooking area, and that's always a plus for me. There's plenty of seating, in a very open space. I recommend it.

I just don't get why they'd waste the opportunity they have when they've obviously invested so much.
