This was a stop on our Uptown Food Tour--well worth it! The best margaritas and our tapas sampling was absolutely delicious! I will make it a point to go back and sample more sometime soon.

McKinney Avenue is one of my favorite areas in Dallas and Primo's is one of my favorite restaurants on it. The food is always good and the Margaritas are over the top. But the very best thing is to go there on one of those gorgeous days Dallas often has and sit out on their patio. You'll be glad you...

We sat down around 7:45 on a Saturday night; not too busy yet, but it started to get busy while we were eating. The food was great, but the service was a little slow. It took a few times asking for our waiter to bring us what we asked for. We ordered pitchers of margaritas which took a lot longer...

The atmosphere is a very interesting mix of young professionals and urban dwellers. Can also be a bit of a celebrity hideout. Everything I have tried here over the past 10 years has been good, but I always return to the enchiladas. Verde sauce is delicious!

Lots of college types and 30-somethings reliving their youth populate this Uptown hotspot. Fun patio worth the wait for people watching.

Can only comment on the bar - which was excellent. I was traveling on business and stumbled across this place - very friendly staff, the coldest beer i have had in a long time, excellent margaritas and great value for money too!

We liked the food at Primo's when we first started going, but the last couple of visits haven't been as great. The service has been slow, as well. I do love sitting on the patio when it's nice out, though.

If you're driving down the Uptown "strip" a.k.a. McKinney Ave. you'll almost always see a crowd here. But as most everyone will tell you it's not because of their mouth-watering cuisine. Primo's is a hot spot for yuppies and the occasional celebrity (Dirk Nowitzki, Mark Cuban, Mike Modano, etc.) looking to be seen. I'm convinced their food merely exists to...

Primos is knows all over DAllas for their award winning margaritas. If you are wanting to get a quick drink, or a belly filling meal, you won't go wrong with Primo's. My favorite location is the McKinney location, but I live closer to the Rockwall location. If you like spice, you have to try their chicken and cheese stuffed fried...
