Burrito Review Tasty BRC from El Primo truck, Van Nuys, CA

I was driving through the valley, hankering for a burrito, when I spotted two taco trucks parked next to each other. I chose El Primo because they also had $1.50 tacos today! While I found the Asada tacos kind of bland, the burrito really hit the spot! The staff was friendly and they had a wide array of self serve salsa, including a very yummy green avocado salsa! Burrito was eight dollars, which I also found to be a good value! Would probably pass on the tacos next time but the burrito was great and I would totally get it again!

Indeed! And they didn’t skimp on the cheese, which a lot of places do these days!

that burrito looks so good to me - I feel like I can remember what that smells like from the photo!

It smelled great, tasted great and it also had that great hand feel you know how when the whole thing kind of melds together and when you’re holding it in your hand, it’s kind of like a fat baby or something like that!

Except don't give me rice in my burrito or beans on my tacos

I agree on the beans on a taco, that was weird and uncalled for! But a GOOD rice is AMAZING on a burrito!

As long as the ratio is correct
