“We tried Coyote Tacos for the first time today, and this place definitely brings a true taste of Tijuana to the table!

Adobada Tacos: The absolute highlight. We were seriously surprised by how flavorful these were, and they do not skimp on the portions—very well served!

Carne Asada Tacos: A bit lacking in flavor compared to the adobada, but still a pretty solid option overall.

Drinks & Atmosphere:
The place itself was noticeably clean, and the staff provided very nice, welcoming service all around. If you are a fan of aguas frescas, they have a great selection here (though we opted out of trying them this time). Just a heads-up for soda lovers: their fountain/soda options are pretty limited.

We will definitely be back for more of that adobada! Highly recommend giving them a shot.“

“I recently stopped by Primos Mexican Food and honestly had a really good experience overall. From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere felt welcoming and laid back, with friendly staff who made ordering easy and comfortable. The restaurant was clean, the service was quick, and the food came out fresh and hot, which immediately made a good first impression.

The biggest highlight was definitely the food itself. The portions were generous, especially for the price, and everything tasted flavorful and homemade rather than overly processed or rushed. The meats were well seasoned, the tortillas tasted fresh, and the ingredients overall seemed high quality. Their salsa also stood out with good flavor and just the right amount of spice. You can tell they put effort into making food that feels authentic and satisfying.

What I appreciated most was the consistency between quality and customer service. Even during busier times, the staff stayed polite, patient, and attentive. They checked orders carefully and made sure customers were taken care of, which makes a huge difference compared to many fast casual restaurants.

Another thing worth mentioning is that the menu has a good variety, so whether you want tacos, burritos, breakfast items, carne asada fries, or something quick and filling, there’s usually something for everyone. It’s the kind of place that works well for a quick lunch, late-night food run, or casual meal with friends and family.

Overall, I’d definitely recommend Primos Mexican Food to anyone looking for flavorful Mexican food, generous portions, and friendly service. It’s easy to see why people keep coming back, and I’ll definitely be returning myself.“

“Picked up from here twice and let me tell you... this is one of the best mexican spots in town. Not only is everything incredibly tasty, but the portions and prices are unbelievable. Anyone can fill up on less than $10 here, and trust me I'm a big guy so I can eat. They PILE meat on their tacos and their burritos are easily shareable. Best thing I've had so far was the shrimp tacos. I ordered two tacos and honestly they put enough shrimp on the plate for four tacos LOL. The sauce they put on the tacos is also very tasty and perfectly spicy. Even better; the food was prepared quickly and the people who work there are very friendly. Please consider giving this place your business.“

“I like this place and get good service here. But today’s tostada salad was a joke. As it is the combo prices have gone way up post pandemic, but the portions are smaller. My tostada shell today is literally an inch high! Nothing there at all. Ridiculous! Whoever the supplier is needs to step it up and make the shells higher. If I wanted a flat little tostada I’d have ordered the 1$ value one off the Del Taco menu instead. Also side note: what’s up with all the dead landscaping on both sides of the drive up wall? Nobody noticed all the hedges and plants dying all over the place that are now a fire hazard. The sprinklers are either not working or turned off. This didn’t happen overnight. If you get the water going maybe they can be salvaged. All the other landscaping around the other shops including across the street is green. Either water them or pull them out then.“

“The restaurant was not too crowded. I like hat there’s plenty of parking and no waiting. I also like the high tables and chairs. Plus I like the many self-serve drink choices along with plenty of napkins and plastic utensils. The food was tasty and the portions are generous. don’t let me forget that the flour tortillas are made on the premises and they’re delicious. I recommend, moreover I prefer Cafe Rio to Chipotle, just my opinion.“

Menifee Market & Feed Mexican • $$
26035 Scott Rd, Menifee

“I've lived off Bundy Canyon for over 30 years, and recall when the store was "Englehart's", with a gas pump by the big rock. I was in the USMC then, commuting to CamPen (I was able to fly down an empty Bundy Canyon Rd. and past dirt Los Alamos & Murr Hot Springs exits) and on Old 395! After becoming a civilian, I commuted to Perris, and got remarried. I often got gasoline at that pump, and my sons had happy moments climbing that rock! Now, I have been re-remarried (20 yrs), and my sons are grown and gone. However, that market has been a constant through all the years; offering last minute convenience and friendly fellowship! Mike, Ty, and their family, have sure done wonders with the place. They have put in endless effort to make it our favorite neighborhood market. (actual our ONLY neighbor market)! The owners have created a "home" and become surrogate family for many people over the years who might otherwise be lost and cast aside. We all recall that scorching July, when they became the hub for the galvanizing community-wide search for Terry Smith. These examples prove that at Menifee Market "Community" is not lost in the past, but is alive and well!“
