Primo Tacos and Hot Dogs - Dallas, Texas

Will D.

This place is about as cool as it looks - bare bones kitchen, no frills environment, quality eats. Something about hotdogs and tacos that just sounded right. The food is reasonably priced, flavourful, and nicely made. This might be my favourite little dining spot in Dallas. A “must go” for visitors.

I have never had bad food or anything that I felt wasn't worth the price. They do way more than just tacos and hot dogs. They have a chicken Philly sandwich on special right now that is absolutely out of this world. I will go out of my way to get it again. It's always slow, sadly, so there's never a wait time, but they deserve so much more attention than they get! The staff is always super helpful and friendly.

There was so much wrong with my experience I’m not sure where to start.

To start this is a self ordering place, meaning you enter your order on a tablet that is at the front counter.

At the end of ordering just before you pay the system asks if you would like to add a tip. ?

I ordered the chili cheese dog. It was a $10 chili dog, there wasn’t nearly enough chili on it and I definitely didn’t see enough cheese there either.
I asked the staff for more cheese the employees immediately caught an attitude and said no.
After showing the amount of cheese I received on my dog then then decided to sprinkle more cheese on my food.
Between the price and the unfriendly employees I will never set foot in this place and I will also proceed to strongly discourage any of my colleagues to avoid this place as a quick lunch option.

Not worth the 12 min walk, not worth the $12 and not worth my lunch hour.

Edit: re: to the owner who replied to my review.
Yes I am absolutely sure I was in the right place in the ground level of the mosaic residential property downtown across from Thanksgiving Square.
No I’m not “mad” that your kiosk ask to add a tip.
I was mostly unsatisfied with the attitude of the employees when I made mention of the amount of cheese on my chili dog.

Also my total came out to $12.95 my purchase included 1 chili cheese dog and 1 beverage from your location. The drink was almost $3.00 so, you do the math.

Also, potential customers take note that instead of apologizing for the lack of customer satisfaction the owner choose to rebuttal and disregard my unsatisfactory experience. 😒
Do yourself a favor and avoid this place.
They obviously don’t care about your experience.

The main highlight of this review IS The UNFRIENDLY SERVICE.

Definitely approve of these Tacos! This time I got the chicken ones. I'll be going back. I've put the attorneys at my firm on to this place. We all approve! 🙂

Havnt been in a while...still the same great food and place...Like coming home and know Mom's cooking hasn't changed. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK PRIMOS

Love the food there. I love the atmosphere. Love the service. One of the best hole in the wall places that I've experienced in Dallas so far. Will recommend it to my guest who stay at my property.

The carne asada fries were SO good. Excellent. I could eat those every day.

Primo Tacos and Hotdogs in Dallas offered me a satisfying and quick lunch experience recently. I tried their birria tacos with consommé, and really liked it. While it may be considered just a "hole in the wall," I found the lack of pretension refreshing. The focus here is on the food.

Primos is a pretty good combination of Mexican American dishes placed together in a surprisingly tasty menu of meals. It’s located in the Dallas CBD area, a stones throw away from Thanksgiving Square- so you can expect some high dollar tacos and dogs but this place is worth it. The offerings definitely have a “food truck” semblance to them, almost greasy. I would say it’s man food if Google will let me say it. It’s not really set up for dining. Yes you can eat here but the chairs are high and so are the tables. It’s uncomfortable. There is no wait staff but for some reason they have the “tip” option on the order screen. I don’t get that. Without a staff serving you, by asking for a tip the restaurant is pretty much just asking you to give them more money for the food you’re about to pay for. Like I said, prices are high. The Mexican Coke is almost four dollars for a twelve ounce bottle. I wouldn’t try their brownie dessert, it’s just a tasteless loaf of questionable mouth feel. Stick with those near awesome tacos and dogs. I think you’ll be glad you did. Now this place doesn’t accept cash …so…if you’re like me and your debt free you probably don’t like to use your credit card. Credit Cards are killing you financially people! Well, I like Primos so much - I reach for my credit card.
