" Wow, what a delightful surprise! I went on a whim and truly enjoyed the evening. The roasted garlic appetizer is a must—seriously, don't skip it! My main course was bucatini amatriciana and the flavors transported me straight to Italy. I felt like I was dining at a neighbor's house. The staff really made the experience special with their hospitality. We will certainly return! " (*Curated Review*)

" A lovely neighborhood spot! I adore the cozy feel of Prima; it’s a perfect blend of homey and classy. The seafood entrees are fantastic, with each dish showcasing fresh, local ingredients. There was a lively ambiance, and the staff were exceptional. While the portions were good, I ended up craving just a bit more after my meal—but excellent food nonetheless! " (*Curated Review*)

" Visiting during the week is a major plus as it's less crowded and you get the full experience! From the moment we walked in, we were treated warmly by the staff. The tomato basil bruschetta was fresh and bursting with flavor—a great kickstarter. The mix of pastas we shared was all deliciously made with distinct flavors. Overall just a great cozy night out! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had an interesting experience at Prima. The atmosphere was lovely and warm but the food was a mixed bag. Some dishes like the calamari were amazing, very well prepared. Others fell a bit short of expectations. The service was very attentive though; our server was enthusiastic and went out of their way to ensure we were happy. I might give it another shot for the homey vibe. " (*Curated Review*)

" Our family has made Prima our new favorite Italian spot! The service has been fabulous every visit, and the quality of the food speaks for itself. I can’t get over how good the fettuccine Alfredo is! The only downside? Some items felt slightly on the pricey side, but the portion sizes and quality made it worth it. You leave feeling satisfied!

" Planning a dinner here was a great decision! I enjoyed the expansive wine selection and the food was exquisite. Each dish seemed to be cooked with love and had an authentic Italian flair. The only downside was that we had to wait a bit longer than expected for our mains, but the staff kept us updated and made us feel at ease. I would definitely recommend trying their signature seafood dishes. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a wonderful visit at Prima with friends. It has a beautiful atmosphere, perfect for a cozy dinner. We ordered a variety of dishes and shared them, which made it fun. The bruschetta was excellent—a perfect start, followed by delicious entrées. The staff were helpful and accommodating. I would suggest taking a walk-in as they tend to get busy during dinner hours.
