Is it taco Tuesday yet?!?! I have truly come to love this place! Although the waits on Tuesday's are waaaayyy too long, the food and the price make it all worthwhile. read more

Thank you fellow yelpers for reviewing this place. I checked it out after my doctor appointment. Delicious! I had 2 shredded chicken tacos & a chicken burrito. The burrito was good, but I will definitely stick with the tacos. For less than $2, you can't lose! Yummy yummy yummy and for those of you that are partial to la flor de jalisco, there is a truck located about 2 blocks away (by the laundromat). I dare you to compare! **NOTE: Los Primos will be closed all day on Halloween, sadly. But will re open on Tuesday. Yay! read more

The Taco Diaries / Entry: the 3rd / Tacos Los Primos For the 3rd installment in my continuing hunt for Bay Area tacos remotely reminiscent of the stunningly sublime tacos I had down in SD/ TJ, I remained within a couple miles from home & tried Tacos Los Primos. Technically, it's a taco trailer rather than a truck. It's parked in a lot right on 23rd. I parked on the street though there was plenty of parking in the lot. Arriving around 7:00pm on a Tuesday, it wasn't busy & there was no line to order. 1 of the 1st things I noticed was a paper-plate sign in the window stating tacos are $1 on Tuesdays. Woohoo! Taco Tuesday in effect! Again, for comparison, I got the same tacos as before: 2 Tacos de Cabeza & 2 Tacos al Pastor. For extra credit, I also got a Lengua & a Buche just like I had previously at La Flor De Jalisco. My order was up quickly, by far the fastest of the 3 Richmond taco places I'd been so far. There's tables under a pop-up for seating, but I took mine to-go. Back at home, I dove right in. The Cabeza (my favorite taco) tasted great but wasn't quite as tender as the Cabeza from Tacos La Raza, though completely better than the Cabeza from La Flor De Jalisco. I'd rate it 4 out of 5. The Pastor here was better than the other Richmond taco places, but still a far cry from the best Pastor I've ever had. Flavor & seasoning were better, but the meat was still a little dry. I'd rate that 3.25 out of 5. The Lengua & Buche tacos were both more flavorful & more tender than La Flor De Jalisco. I'd rate both 3.5 out of 5. Taking an average of what I ate, it's a hair over 3.5 out of 5. With $1 tacos on Tuesdays & the fastest tacos in town, I'll go ahead & round up to 4 stars overall. For quick, cheap, good take-out tacos on a Tuesday in Richmond, Tacos Los Primos is the way to go. For the best tacos in the entire Bay Area, the hunt is still on... read more

Wow. I got four kinds of taco- carne asada, lengua, beef cheek, and carnitas. I am not 100% sure, but I think it was the lengua (tongue) that was just... absolutely melt in your mouth rich deliciousness. Thing is, they were all amazeballs. So good. So very, very good. These folks are legit. The radish, the pickled pepper, the little cooked onion, all add such lovely, complex elements to each taco. Man. I feel like I should have got more than four! For sure coming back here on a Tuesday. A taco truck on every corner? Yes, please. Especially if they're like Tacos Los Primos! read more

Awesome tacos. Awesome service. Great prices. Consistent every single time. Happy to make my 100th review a 5 star for los primos.

This is my number 1 taco truck choice i go to. Not only are their burritos affordable but they are also plentiful packed with the works! They also have steamed onions, jalapeno, carrots, and other vegetables to add with your burrito on the side. It also comes with their hot sauce which taste superb. They ahve great service always fast and ready to be served and a good seating area on the side where theres dvd's you can buy from a family. Shop while you eat. Now thats a treat! read more

What I ate: grilled pollo taco, asada taco Visit date: January 29, 2015 First time? Yes. My coworkers are cool; they love food and they brought me here. I have a special place in my stomach (er, heart) for taco trucks. Tacos Los Primos in particular stands out to me because they serve the jalapeños whole and I get nice and hot after drinking the salsa (yes, I take salsa sips). The meats are tender and flavorful, the tortillas soft, and the salsas on point. I will definitely be back for more. And note - Taco Tuesday means $1 tacos! read more

Tacos Los Primos - Grilled chicken and asada tacos with everything. - Mexican Near Me - Richmond, California

Worst tacos we've ever had. Meat was old. Cold. Owners were beyond rude. Do not eat here ever!!!

2 bucks a taco and you get plenty of flavor and meat for your taco. They got plenty of meat selections. - Suadero is underrated and super flavorful. - Al Pastor is packed with flavor and enough fat. Those are my favorite meats there and the asada is plenty flavorful also! Their red sauce is really really hot sometimes and can ruin the taco. I'd recommend asking for the green sauce it's better personally speaking. I also love getting a 5 buck cup full of salsa to go and have at home for the carne asada at home! It's always a hit whenever I fire up the grill! They have great customer service also! Never had a complaint! read more

Yummy for my tummy! I love their tacos. They are flavorful and come fast. The price has been increasing, but is cheaper than the fancy $5 tacos that you find at grid events. No matter what type of meat I get, I'm satisfied. I can eat four tacos at one sitting and am quite full and satisfied. read more

I love love love their food! I've tried most of the meats, but the rose meat is so tasty! They offer fast service, quality food, warm and greeting staff. Best tacos in Richmond Hands down! read more

Soooo goood! Will definitely be going back. Fresh and very flavorful! If you like tacos this is you place.

I really like them a lot. i cant give them 5 stars because lately, they've been putting less and less meat on tacos. But Pastor tacos are my fave when fresh ( i can tell when pastor is old) read more

Good tacos, good burritos and good Tortas. CONS: They are a little over priced for a food truck. Tortas don't come with cheese (WHAT!? I know, this is the first place that I see where they don't put cheese in Tortas). PROS: I like that they have a sitting area. There's free parking. Good flavor in the food. Plates come with hot sauce, a pepper and an onion. YUMMY. Overall, I would come back if I am in the area read more

BEST TACOS IN RICHMOND I've been coming here for YEARS after la Flor de Jalisco started cutting corners and having hella fat in their meat. These tacos are the best, the meat is always good, service is friendly and fast. Parking is convenient. read more

I don't like like leaving bad reviews, however, I strongly feel they are necessary for one to make an informed decision. Although my dad loves these tacos, I find them very dry. The tacos have very little meat on them, and the limes they come with are dry and hard as rock. I can only speak for the asada tacos as that is the only meat I've ordered. The burritos have a very distinct flavor of what is probably too much cumin, which I'm not a fan of. In my very slender asada burrito, all I got was nothing but the fat from the meat inside, which was not very pleasant to eat. I would like to say, the staff is pretty nice. No complaint there, and I definitely enjoy their horchata. In the end, I would not recommend this place to anyone unless it's the only open taco truck late at night and you do not want to drive to Oakland for bomb tacos. read more

Hands down, the most legit off the hook taco truck I've EVER been to. I got the al pastor and asada tacos, it...was...heaven! I usually don't give 5 stars on yelp, but if I could, I would give this place 10! Taco tuesdays are $1 and they hook you up with cebollitos, chili pepper, radishes and lime. The salsa is spicy, but finger licking good. Beware, they do charge 25 cents for take out bags. They are the reusable kind, but I would bring my own bag next time. Come to this place, you guys won't regret it read more

Wowwww gotta be new owners or sumthin I remember this truck from years ago use to be bomb not anymore shits gross af now idk what that weird taste is or if it's on the rice or in the grease but it's nasty the sauce is gross too man y'all down bad for that smh and on top of that I asked for extra sour cream which they charged me for but didn't put it on there read more

As an Oakland native, I am particular about my street tacos aka taco truck tacos. I think the best Mexican food and tacos can be found in the heart of the Fruitvale district. I have been a resident of the Richmond area for almost two years and have yet to explore the taco scene even though my husband (a Richmond native) has told me all the great things about Mexican food here. I had a hankering for tacos and ventured out to the equivalent of the fruitvale area of Richmond, 23rd Avenue. It was a cold Wednesday evening and drove up to busy outdoor eating area in a fenced in lot. I thought it was funny how this place is called "Los primos"(male cousins) when in fact all the employees that night including the cooks were female, more like "Las primas". The tacos hit close to home as they were the right amount of flavorful, greasy, and tasty. Just what I was craving. I asked for 2 asada and 2 al pastor with everything on them, which included their mild red salsa. I don't know if I want to keep looking for the perfect taco in Richmond because I was fairly satisfied here. For $2 a taco, I will for sure come back. read more

I've come here probably 50 times to get a burrito and there's never been any gristle.. I especially love the spicy salsa that comes with it! The people taking orders are always super chill, friendly and efficient and those making the burritos are fast and courteous. I would give five stars but I feel that it's a bit expensive for a taco truck... they recently raised prices and a super burrito is now $8. Also, they stopped having taco tuesdays, boo! I still manage to go a few times a month and it's super convenient to be able to park in their huge lot and eat my burrito in the car. read more

Five stars five stars yes I said it twice I absolutely love this place the guy taking the order he's bilingual you can order an English or in Spanish the tacos and I order are fresh you have the option of red or green salsa they give you these little onions and radish and a jalapeno pepper and pickled carrots with each Taco order I always go each and every Tuesday from 10 to 3 to take advantage of their $1 tacos one of the best spots in Richmond to get tacos I haven't tried their burrito cuz I'm hooked on the tacos did I forget to mention that I love their tacos!!!! read more

Tacos Los Primos - Already busy really good food - Mexican Near Me - Richmond, California

Excellent tacos. A variety of meats offered-- carnitas, pastor, cabeza, buche, lengua, carne asada, pollo... all options yummy. Lime, radishes and cebollitas added to taco plates-- um yes please. Especially good when you can get one taco for $1 on Tuesdays. They're located in a vacant market lot off of 23rd Street. Pop up style seating outside of the trailer they sell the food out of. We've tried quite a few places along 23rd for tacos. This may be the best for tacos! read more

$1.50 for Tacos the BEST In 23rd/Richmond area. Went on a Thursday night before closing for the first time, had to check it out cuz needed to find a spot for tacos. The shredded chicken and asada is bomb and the chorizo was ok could have been better but will try it again earlier in the day. This place will make you stop going to the Flor de Jalisco trucks fo sho! read more

Tasty, authentic & affordable! My son couldn't handle the heat on the taco. So, beware of the picante. I loved it!! If you're not sure, request it on the side. Our new favorite tacos in Richmond!! read more

The #1 taco truck in Richmond and in my heart. I've been coming here with my family since I was a kid and the quality has remained the same throughout the years. Al pastor, lengua, carne asada, carnitas... It doesn't matter what meat you choose, their tacos are bomb. I used to only ever order their tacos, 'cause they're so good I didn't want to try anything else. But take a risk! One day I decided to try their carne asada burrito and now it's currently my favorite thing on the menu. (Make sure you ball out and get sour cream for an extra 50 cents lol) If you're in Richmond, it's definitely worth checking out Los Primos. Their outdoor seating needs improvement and their horchata isn't that great :'( but their food is truly A1. read more

Very authentic Mexican tacos. They are also very well served. The salsas are very good, too.

I'm not sure how this place got such great reviews, but our one visit was a disappointment. Both the carne asada in the burrito and carnitas in the tacos were very dry. Hopefully it was just an off day for them, but my wife and I both didn't enjoy our food. It doesn't mean I won't give them another try though. All of these Yelp reviewers can't be wrong and I'm really hopeful that our next experience is better, because it's a long drive from Hercules to Taco Sinaloa in Oakland. read more

Nice sized parking lot with 5 picnic tables. Food is cheap, quick and good. What makes them different is the hot grilled sweet onion. Definitely fixes our taco Tuesday cravings! And if you want more junk food krispy krunchy is just across the street! Haha read more

This is a decent place to come eat Mexican food. This last time I ordered a steak burrito. The size was pretty generous and the taste of the meat was great. There are numerous options of taco truck in 23rd st. But this one in particular has one of the best tacos in the area, and has a big parking lot. I will definitely come again. read more

Super chicken burrito was bland w/no flavor. Was dissapointed they don't have guacamole. Burrito was small for $8, I'm sure they make bigger burritos for different customers. The size of mine was not a super..Good customer service. read more

Really love this place but not happy recently with the hours. They have been closing early and are closed on some nights when it says they should be open. Tonight we arrived at 8:30 and yup they are "done". What's up with this. Change the hours at least. It's annoying to crave your burritos and be denied. What kinda torture is that?!! read more

Hands down best tack truck anywhere enough said! Food is always fresh and their salsa is amazing go here go now hurry! Go fast ! Your not there yet? Go! Order the pastor super burrito and you will not be disappointed! Update: they raised the prices so I can't really justify going here unless special circumstances good burritos but what made them so great was the low price! Now you might as well spend the same money at an actual taqueria you know is not a truck etc. prices are meh now foods good read more

This food truck is close to home and they had a 4.5 star overall rating so I decided to give them a try. They were easy to find. Plenty of parking. I got 2 al pastor and 2 shredded chicken tacos with onions & cilantro. They were delicious. I enjoyed the radishes and grilled onion too. The guy who took my order was patient as I had a couple of questions. He kindly put the salsa on the side as he was honest and shared it runs on the spicy side. I'm a low spice kinda girl.... There were 4 other customer ahead of me... but I still got my order within 5mins. I was pleased. They had clean outdoor benches and tables to sit at while I waited for my order. I will be back! read more

Street tacos! Ok, everything is a little smaller than maybe most Mexican-American restaurants but this place comes the closest to my (possibly inaccurate) memories of Spring Break in Mexico with little bare-bones tacos with a ton of salsas crammed in there and everything dangerously close to falling apart and absolutely delicious. Order a few. Or a bunch. read more

My friends used to love coming here religiously on taco Tuesdays. I did not think it was worth dealing with the insane parking and long ass lines for $1 tacos with a whole lotta fatty chunks. Well they have since ended their Taco Tuesday promotion and we no longer come here. In my opinion, there are much better offerings in the area with more options like fish tacos. read more
