    Beautiful space and ambience. The garlic bread was recommended by our waitress and it was an indulgence. Our food was delicious and it is nice that they have half portions and plenty of good options on the menu. Service was exceptional

    We have been to Prima a couple of times but this was our first time doing the Gluten Free Monday. All of the food was incredible. Our friend with a gluten allergy was so excited to be able to join in on all the food! The gluten free chicken parm was a masterpiece!

    Prima never disappoints. Quality service, amazing food and good vibes overall. I’ve brought all of my friends and family here, making them all huge fans. It’s my go to Italian spot and well worth the price. Leftovers taste even better the next day too!

    Some items in our order were very good, especially the pasta. Eggplant was overdone and burnt. Service was good!
