10/10 AUTHENTIC! Randomly pulled up to Taqueria La Prima at 12am after a night out and it was perfect! As someone who lived in California and was missing that authentic taste, this is my new taco spot!

★★★★★ 5.0 Hannah · Feb 2026

This place blew me away! Tacos and sauces were amazing.

★★★★★ 5.0 Camila Z · Oct 2025

Portions were big. Prices were fair. Flavors were exceptional. Atmosphere was low key. No sign, no indoor seating, just a friendly nonchalant dude behind the counter, another manning the meats, and another cleaning the floor. The vibe made me feel like we were all in on a tasty secret and we dare not acknowledge it other than with a head nod. Service was quick. 15min from order to yum. We went for lunch on Saturday and brunch on Sunday. The service, atmosphere and flavor were consistent.

Fantastic tacos! Very flavorful and big portions. Will definitely come back for more. The neighborhood made me feel a bit uneasy, should’ve gone during the day.

★★★★★ 5.0 Lilly Jiang · May 2023

Huge portions, great meal. You know it’s good when they have double corn tortillas. Green and red salsas are both great and pack a slow heat. We liked the pastor and carne asada the most. Only downside is the order took a while - they told us 20 mins (it might have been a bit faster). Deep fried pork was yummy, not super memorable, and the lengua was delicious and super tender. Horchata was also solid, $6 for a giant takeout soup container worth lol
