Ran down here to grab some cotija cheese and guacamole for a dish I was making! Love that theres a local authentic market so close. Super easy to pop in and out with exactly what you need without having to go into a major grocery store. Reasonable prices too! I was super happy and my dish turned out great π
Primo Market is the best! The bountifully stocked, convenient neighborhood market is truly an essential part of South Oceansideβs vibrant little community. The mouth watering weekend BBQ & their famous Taco Tuesdayβs are highlighted by the friendly, funny, efficient team of workers who keep that place running like a well oiled machine. It feels like family with that expert level customer service you are sure to receive. Great beer prices too.
This is the best place I have ever been to. And I have been to Barcelona
Great neighborhood market. Prepared foods & awesome guacamole! Meat counter with nice selection.
Primos was great man their beans their food reasonably priced fed the whole party it was delicious totally good job guys well be seeing you again
Took my visiting kids to have dinner. The food was good but the guy that we ordered from was rude. When we asked for forks to eat our food we got a mean response and had to wait, then asked for napkins and we got one apiece! Needless to say my kids werent impressed at one of the oldest Mexican food places in Oceanside!
Please disregard other reviews noting the quality of this establishment as the food is overpriced for being such low quality along with selling their customers spoiled meats. Unfortunately I canβt even say the service was good as the women working behind the counter have terrible attitudes.Save your time, money and immunity.
The cafe is good and cheap. The market itself is convenient, but expensive.
Ribs better than adams
The absolutely most delicious tacos
Im tempted to be selfish and give this place a negative review so I can have it all to myself. I absolutely love my local Primo. Please dont go there and make it so busy that I have to wait in a long line at checkout!
They have great Carne Asada burritos. Also their tacos are to die for. Price is reasonable
Friendly neighborhood serviceExcellent quality and selection of fresh products!
Best Mexican comida !
Yesterday I ordered a tri-tip sandwich on a roll and it was horrible. I kinda like it simple, with grilled onion and yellow mustard. First the cashier tells me they have no mustard, not like, were out of it, but, like we dont carry it. Second, the meat was cut too thin, thus dry, and over seasoned with what I can only describe as taco seasoni g. I couldnt taste the tri tip, which is what I am paying for. No excuse for serving such a meal meal.
Awesome market. Love the marinated meats for grilling and combine that with their house made Aguachile cevice- bomb. Also have all the essentials for reasonable pricing. Solid Latin foods + bodega
Small cozy and nice. Average customer service and has a taco shop connected with decent Mexican food. Nice little neighborhood market.
Long live the neighborhood market. Love this place and Iβm so happy to have them supporting the locals all of these years. Great selection of produce, meat and beer as well as hands down the best home made salsas to chose from. There is a little taco shop on the outside that serves up great mexican food.
Saw a super hot blond women there today. Big tips. Small waist...shes was fire.Oh the meat here is the best in oceanside. Also got a good beer selection. Try the shirt ribs and salsa.
MAN! If you are looking to hoist a small gathering... Look no further! They has got you covered! Meat by the pound is a lifesaver! Per made Ribs... fall off the bone good!
Great food outside or togo
Love Primo foods, and Taco Tuesdays!
Love their to go food but be prepared to wait they also have a wonderful selection of salzas and guacamole.. everyones super friendly they also have killer carne asada
Good prepared food as well as a great little market and meat counter.
Good store but would love to see seeded organic fruit as well as tropical fruit
This place is amazing. Their tacos are so delicious. Sometimes the wait might be long but its so worth it.
Best street tacos around! The chicken and asada are so delicious!!!
Bought their Prime NY steaks. They were awesome, and a good price.
I like a neighborhood market as much as the next person but this one is just ok. 3 stars bc they DO have nice choices for great grilling- meats and fresh veggies at decent prices, which is always a good thing! The not so great is the walk up window outside which is always crowded w mask-less people waiting, gathering, and eating and to be honest, food from it is hit or miss. Also, homemade food inside (like guacamole) runs expensive. And although they have signs saying face coverings are required inside, enforcement is nill. Just watched a woman w no mask or intention of putting one on, stroll right on in.
Great place to get a quick bite to eat.
Quick stop place, great food awesome salsa and chips made by them, meats pricey but good
Taco shop is quick and cheap, food is ok.
Very clean place, good selection of products and good food.
Grate and diferent . Food
Cashier overcharged us. Watch your receipt people!
I would give them more stars because the food is okay, but they forgot everything for my order and none of the workers were wearing their masks properly and some not at all. So go ahead and order if you feel okay with them breathing on your food.
Small market with lots of convenience items! And, close to where we stayed so it was really convenient...was surprised to find a meat counter and butcher, plus pre seasoned meats...the Al Pastor seasoned pork was amazing!
Good overall menu.
Best tacos Ive had in Southern California! I got the #4, two chicken tacos and two carne asada tacos. Got home and paired it with a classic Corona with lime.They take USD and card. Incredible.
It is a GREAT place. I bought a lot there. They have a lot to offer. The only place my CA family shops for the meat for their table.
This place is awesome. Great tacos, excellent variety of local beers and other alcohol. Local market with reasonable prices. If you want to support Oceanside and the neighborhood, shop and eat here. Would easily give 5 stars if you could drink on the patio! Good people working here.
The carnitas plate is a miracle.Primo Market should show up under restaurants, not just under grocery stores.
Best marinated meat and prices
Pretty good store
Theres a white guy who works at both this one and the one in visit, he makes our visits great! Not only foods awesome but so is the service
The tacos are good,fast service. The only issue i had was they mixed up my order. Other than that, great food good service
Awesome tacos.
Love the place everyone is super friendly.There taco Tuesdays are the best!Be ready to wait in line, but its well worth it!
As one of my favorites.. today it was dirty and the customer service horrible. If you want your loyal customers you need to improve upon just the basics of running a store/restaurants
Nice!
Best carne asada in the county hands down!
Great food!
Have delicious food,grey tacos nice service i recommended.
Great Fresh Food and Vegetables! Lots of variety!
Called and ordered ahead now Iβm waiting 30 minutes and my break is over 2nd time this has happened I wonβt return again
Great food at a great price.
The Tuesday s tacos for 69 cents are great but the long wait for today August 21 2018 was out of ordinary. I arrived at 4pm i ordered the 69 cents tacos then i went inside the store to do an additional shopping, by the time i was done they usually have my tacos ready but this time they were not ready and is not because they had more customers, it was about the same amount of customers in the previous time i was there . i dont know what happened today the guy at the register and the cook were too slow at 5 pm i requested my money back i couldnt wait any longer.
Nice little store cooked food and raw every thing you need for a bbq
Carne asada fries were outstanding. Couldve packed a little more into the box, but theyre fantastic usually. Great little store
Authentic Mexican food, l did not go to the market, I just ate at take out. Great stuff!
Visit this market for a local Mexican flavor. Their Spanish rice is delicious and their vegetables and fruit are very good prices. There is always something good cooking el primos Market there is one in Vista and one in Oceanside they both very good
Best marinated meat you can find! Great variety of freshly made salsas too
This is the place for Taco Tuesday. Very authentic food. Slow service, but simply those Street Tacos are amazingly good. Great salsa.
Greatest place. Fresh everything
I go here most Tuesdays for the 69 cent tacos - the best Ive found in North County! Worth the wait, but of youre starving, theres the market. Its great also! Go get yourself an appetizer!
I love this place! Great prices and fresh fruit and vegetables. They also have a meat department that is super good. And their salsas are amazing!
Bought some fresh fruit plate but it wasnt at all fresh. It was so bad my birds even refused to eat it.
Great place to grab some good mexican food and a few groceries. Check out their taco Tuesday for $0.69 tacos! It gets busy though on Tuesdays so make sure you have a few minutes to wait.They also have a ton of fresh fruit and some really good BBQ on the weekends. I like their wings.Definitely worth checking out!
I love this place. I come here all the time.Their beer selection is great and the meat section is on point.The food from the restaurant is OK. It tastes good, but it takes too long to order and way too long to get your food.Also, the beverage fridge is a few degrees too warm, so if you like cold beers youll need to throw them into the fridge before drinking.All in all, this is an awesome traditional mexican market with super friendly staff.
Small supermarket yet had exactly what we needed. Excellent meat for BBQ (chicken, beef,..), nice fresh aisle and very friendly service. Thank you!
Great quality meats, amazing authentic stand food for unbelievable prices.. Ive never had a bad experience and always look forward to a trip to Primo with the family : )
The employees are always nice, the food is delicious. Their produce is always fresh. Their taco specials are the best! 69c for flavorful and fresh tacos. They cant be beat
Decent market store and produce. Great meat market and BBQ on weekends. They also have a taqueria on the side of the building with good food. Weekly specials like 69 cent tacos on Tuesday. Breakfast burritos are the best as well!
They have the smoker going and makes you hungry
Love the tacos
Place is Great. Ton of beer options and Great service.
Is a superb place for those street tacos. Great meats and many side dishes for all occasions.
Tacos here have a really good deal on Tuesday and Fridays. Best taco shop in San Diego county!
The market is small but has a big variety of products, including both big name brands and locally made products (try the chips and dips!) The taco shop on the side of the market is killer. Great tacos and other Mexican food, and very cheap prices. Wait times can be a bit longer than other fast food places, especially on taco Tuesdays(69 cent tacos!), but its definitely worth it.
Iβve gone here since I was 12. Used to love it. Now, every time I come home, they get my order wrong, have raised the prices ($6 for a bean and cheese?!), and hardly give me any sauce.
Ive been shopping at Primos for almost 15 years. I love love love how inexpensive the produce is and the food is wonderful! The meat is always well seasoned and flippin amazing when you buy it at the meat counter! If you order food make sure to try the ribs! Oh brother! Youll love em!
I used to love this place. Not sure what happened, but the employees seam like they hate their life and the food has been terable the last 5 times I came.
Best butcher shop in the area. The taco shop uses their beef, so it is excellent too.
Amazing BEEF RIBS and salsas & guacamole! This is my favorite carniceria in the world hands down! β£β£β£π€ππ€
Great people. Everything I need that I cant find at a grocery store. I love this place.
Great choice of fresh fruits and vegetables. Different types of meat in different marinade. And absolutely the best suviche which they prepare fresh for every weekend.
Well I came here because a friend always has her Tuesday tacos and really said Id love the food its not too far from a lot of the other stores right there on coast highway d a v a beauty salon just your right here on the coast and the beaches actually beautiful scenery if I were new to town want to go somewhere and get some Mexican food I would definitely come to primos market it got excellent prices for fruits vegetables and meats an excellent customer service
Great little market and the to go window. The meat is excellent! Tacos, burritos.... everything.
Love Primo Market. Taco Tuesday is a must!
Awesome Mexican food. But their Nachos suck. The market is cool as well.
Best carne asada... anywhere
If you have never been to Primos, you have to stop in to get a feel for what a real Mexican market looks and smells like. They also have a fast food location next to the parking lot although the food does NOT come out fast.
Good food and great price
Best cheep tacos around
