Tacos Los Primos — Restaurant in Jefferson Township

Last night, I found this little gem, and I'm hooked! I wanted tacos, but from where? That was the million $ question. I have given up on Northside Chicago tacos. Southside? No. I was not going to the south side for tacos. All i wanted to find was good flavorful asada meat, chopped right, great tortillas, and a good salsa. Thankfully, I found more than that. Tacos los primos has handmade tortillas, gorditas, sopes and quesadillas, and much much more food. We ordered take-out. We live about 20 min from this joint and food made home hot, fresh and delicious. Packaged extremely well. While we ordered, we had a green salsa chicken tamale & a red pork tamale. Both were moist, meaty, and very flavorful. The texture of every bite was perfect. For take out, we ordered all our tacos with handmade tortillas, yes there was a $1 upcharge, totally worth it! Asada was spectacular, super flavorful, tender, chopped into cubes. Handmade Gorditas were to die for, green salsa chicharron topped with all the goods. Handmade quesadilla was the size of my face. I highly recommend the rajas y queso (peppers and cheese, vegetarian). And then the quesabirrias, very cheesy and the birria meat, was very flavorful. My only disappointment was the pastor, not my cup of tea. But I do recommend giving it a try, hopefully you like em. Thank you to the lovely lady that took our order, she was super helpful and her smile is contagious. I will definitely be back, dining...

Came here cuz it was close and we wanted some tacos, never again will i come here. The chips were stale and had no salt, the salsa tasted watered down and like it was tomato sauce with water and a few random veggies thrown in. Now for the main food i ordered a torta de milanesa, a taco de asada and a taco de alpastor. Sure the portion sizes are big they stack the meat on the tacos but when the meat has no seasoning or flavor and the green/red salsa they have dont have any flavor either its hard to enjoy the food. The torta bread was very thin and it disintegrated as soon as i picked it up. Ive noticed most of the reviews are from white people and honestly this is a fancy version of taco bell or a white washed version of...

Family friendly atmosphere. Pleasant and professional staff. I enjoyed the Lingua Taco (tongue). The Al Pastor was delicious and the Carne Asada was also tasty. However, the texture of the Lingua was different from what I am used to having. It was almost too soft. Almost mushy. My only issue was inconsistent quality. The first day I went, the food was fresh, hot and cooked really well. I went back two days later and the same dishes, like the rice, beans and Carne Asada were not as fresh and I needed to add salt to the meat. I was a little disappointed. I will go back to give it another try. Maybe they were having a bad day. I think Tacos Los Primos is worth a try if you are in the area and want a bite of...
