Reviews El Primero Bar & Grill

Very tasty tacos. We tried both LA style Crispy and Baja Fish Taco. Super tasty. I will go back

We really enjoyed this place. It is in a great location in Del Ray. Food was reasonable. We had the green chili burrito and LA tacos with hard shell. All were very good. Burrito was huge and is enough for 2 people. Service was great. I would definitely recommend this place.

Small and fairly authentic Mexican place between Arlington and Alexandria . Got two tacos and guacamole and chips. The chorizo taco was surprisingly my least favorite . The crispy beef taco and guacamole was good.

I have been here before and I will go again. Their margaritas are magnificently blended. We had one that was infused with jalapeños and another infused with habaneros. They were fantastic. The infusions blended perfectly and gave the right amount of flavor and a spicy kick. My girlfriend ordered a burrito al arriba which was huge, but seemed a little underwhelming in the flavor department. I honestly was expecting more from the burrito in regards to flavor, but it seems that all the flavor was in the sauce on top. The guacamole was very fresh and delicious. I ordered the tamales, because duh, tamales. I got one pork and one chicken tamale and I think the chicken was seasoned better. The rice and guacamole were consistently delicious, but I found the slaw that accompanied my dish to be a little lacking. It looked well seasoned, but after trying some, it was rather bland so I didn't eat the rest of it. The portions of food were impressive and maybe even a little too much for one person in one sitting. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable and the restaurant was comfortable and authentically ornamented. We ate outside because it was such a beautiful day.
