El Primo Mexican Food — Restaurant in Compton

Came in for the 1st time tonight to try their veggie burrito, I'm always on the hunt for a good veggie burrito and boy did they deliver, it was filled with green and red bell peppers, onion, zucchini and black beans. I was in the mood for some meat so I added shrimp, which were cleaned and deveined to my liking. The burrito was absolutely delicious. The salsa bar had 3 different salsas chili de arbol, roasted tomotillo and another red salsa good for chips. All of them were delicious. The owner was seated with a couple and the whole table greeted us upon walking in and later visited our table to make sure we enjoyed the food and told us they just opened another location in their hometown in Mexico, they were very proud owners and they should be because they have a fine establishment. I will certainly be back and already text my cousin another veggie burrito enthusiest the address lol.

So real quick best thing about this place is the orange juice comes is real, and when you ask for a large they give a large ...not some misplaced attempt at a large... had the breakfast burrito with bacon and grilled veggies and it just tastes like they actually cooked up some fresh food and not some leftovers like most places taste ...very good and I ate outside and was able to relax while eating in a nice little area away from the ye sidewalk unlike other spots that are right next to the sidewalk...so that's also a plus. And the prices are reasonable as well...oh yeah, the frappes are amazing...
