Carniceria Y Taqueria Los Primos

I have been hesitating on reviewing what I feel to be the best tacos in Phoenix. The hesitation is in part that I want primos/​huichos to be kept secret. Enough of me being selfish, this spot is Lo Mejor!
You can’t go wrong with the carne or pastor but for a real tastebuds treat, treat yourself to the cecina. Whoever dissed the tripas was wrong, not sure how they can be soft when they throw them on the grill right before your eyes. Lengua is on point and so is the pollo.
I have been visiting this shop for well over a year and have never had anything I did not like. My new go to is their burritos, so good. So for some legit tacos, burritos, even some take home meat Primos is the place!

This place wuz not as hyped up as ppl said it wuz. The pastor wuz not good I’ve had better. The carne asada wuz good not great.

Today was my second time going to this Tequeria. I heard a lot of good things about this place and after reading the reviews I thought «wow, I have to try this place.». Boy oh boy were these reviewers wrong. On my first visit I got a burrito de tripas and enough carne asada tacos to feed my family of 4. The tacos were edible but not «amazing» and the tripas were disgusting. They were just boiled and excessively chewy not at all fried like they claim to prepare them. After that visit (in April) my husband and I decided to give them a second chance so we went today (June). BIG MISTAKE! Our order consistent of Mendo 9 Carne asada tacos, 2 tacos de pastor, 4tacos de tripas (we asked for them to be fried because we like them crunchy). We had the order to go because it’s only 3 minute drive. We arrive home and sit down for our meal to our disappointment they had forgotten 2 Carne asada tacos, the tripas were once again excessively chewy (not fried at all), and the menudo was cold, greasy and lacking flavors that it’s well known for. Not at all the «RICO MENUDO» they advertise. I did try calling to speak to who ever is in charge unfortunately the phone rings a few times and goes into voice-​mail but the voice-​mail is full. I will definitely NOT be patronizing this place again.

Authentic Mexican food. Great tacos. Coming from a Mexican family I can be tough critic on Mexican food it’s hard to find a taco place that sparks my interest. This would be one of them. Great service as well. Highly recommend:)

These are my favorite tacos in town, and you have to try the Gringas– giant quesadillas with pork and pineapple! It is a hole in the wall, family owned place, not fancy but great food and great people!
They also cater private events and do a great job – I first learned about them when they did an event at my school.

This place is the bomb, its not a classy place by any means, but the food is economical and delicious. $ 1.25 small tacos, the pastor is amazing! I will be back!

Now this place I am crazy about. We have been regulars here for 2 years now. Consistency and quality are always guaranteed. I bring many friends and family to try this place as opposed to their regular carniceria, and they convert. I am happy to live very near this location to frequent it as often as I do.

These are by far the best tacos in town. But don’t just try the tacos… try everything here. You will not be disappointed! The location is Definitely in a shadier part of town but don’t let that discourage you. So so so good

My friend told me I had to try this place and I am so glad I finally did. It’s a small space and doesn’t look like much from the outside but the food is delicious. I tried the carne asada and pastor tacos. Both were delicious but the pastor was my favorite! The tacos came with lime, cucumber and radishes on the side. The salsas were flavorful and tortillas tasted fresh. I’ve also tried their carne asada that is marinated there. My friends threw it on the grill and it was so good. They also bought some of the small flour tortillas from there that were perfect for tacos. I will definitely be back.

This place catered a tailgate for the ND — ASU game last weekend, and I can say with 100% certainty that they are the best tacos I’ve had in my life. The meats are cut in a way that allows you to put just enough on the taco, and the juices don’t bleed through. Oh yeah and the meats are salted perfectly. I had 9 tacos, and though I don’t live in the area would consider stopping by just for a lunch! The employees are super friendly and really enjoyed the time — this was an unforgettable taco experience! I want some now…

Had their tacos pollo and Carne at Arizona taco festival and was sooo tasty way better than a majority of others the line was long but for good reasons! I will be stopping by to pick up pollo for dinner tonight! Good Job guys your tacos are better than the other guys.

Unilocal is meant for finding places like this. In a sea of corporate taco malls, Taco Huicho stood alone as the taco spot I hadn’t heard of at the Arizona Taco Festival. Their pastor tacos reminded me of my favorite street taco place in Cabo which I constantly crave and haven’t been able to find a substitute for here in Phoenix.
That all happened Sunday. As in… yesterday.
Needless to say, lunchtime rolled around and I got that familiar craving and decided to find them on Unilocal since I had no clue where they were located. I would definitely describe their location as «tucked away,» but the dot on the Unilocal map was 100% spot on.
Round two with the pastor was even better than the first. It came out super hot and the salsa bar is nothing short of amazing. There aren’t 15 different types of exotic, over-​thought salsas but everything tasted fresh and delicious. Located on the counter I saw a small unassuming trophy for the recent taco festival — 1^st place — People’s Choice. No surprise. That kind of trophy seems fitting for this place, no flash necessary when you do it like this.
Every restaurant in the greater Phoenix area that is even thinking about serving a taco should come here first. This goes double for the Scottsdale «luxury cantinas» that charge $ 4.00+ for a taco. Now I’m not saying you have to be cheaper, but if Tacos Huicho can inspire me to write a novel about their tacos at $ 1.25 a pop you can put something semi tasty together for 4 times that.
I fully expect Tacos Huicho (and the associated Carniceria) to end up in a top spot on Unilocal with 100+ reviews and a 4.5* + rating. It would be criminal if they don’t become one of the hot taco dives of Phoenix.

Tacos Huicho has the best Mexican tacos in Phoenix I ate. They have good food service and amazing tacos that are super delicious. The best part about Tacos Huicho is that if you like the food they have a butcher and you can buy the meat to take home and cook. Overall Tacos Huicho is the place to go for Mexican tacos.

Bomb tacos hands down! Super legit and super cheap! The pastor is my favorite. It’s a dive place but a must have if you like authentic street tacos. On the weekends they have a taco cart outside and can get pretty packed so make sure to go before it gets to hot outside.

Delicious tacos! Small carniceria that makes food inside such as, tacos, tortas, quesadillas and burritos. They also have some bomb guacamole salsa and another delicious red salsa. At night they bring everything outside and have a taco stan in front of the building in the parking lot. Probably some of the best tacos in Phoenix! A hidden gem for sure.
