    First time dining at Primi, everything was top notch. Service was perfectly attentive but not in your face, everyone was so pleasant and welcoming. The food and drinks were fantastic. They even brought a desert with a candle for my husbands birthday, which even tho I have noted on open table before at other restaurants, it has never been acknowledged. Primi is definitely a step above the rest.

    We had a 6:30 reservation and from the time we sat down to the time we left it was a great experience! We started with the calamari appetizer which was fried perfectly and the addition of cherry pepper “chips” (sliced cherry peppers lightly dredged in the calamari coating, and then fried) was a nice pop of heat. It added another layer of flavor that was unexpected, but very welcome. My wife got the Steak Frittes. The steak was cooked perfectly and fries had great flavor. I got the whole branzino and was not disappointed! The fish was cooked perfectly and the taste was phenomenal! We will definitely be returning!
