    Christmas dinner with friends could not have been more perfect. It is rare that every bite and every sip is excellent; yet, this was the case during this dinner. Service was present, timely, and efficient, but not disruptive. And the view… well, you are not going to beat that anywhere else in the city. Great location for a special occasion, and the bill was not a mortgage payment. Great experience and value.

    Primavista has always had outstanding service and food. The ambience is always wonderful and laid back. They pulled out all the stops for my birthday dinner party. Our server, Anthony, was excellent and on point in every way. I felt very important and attended to.

    Service and food were excellent. Took my family here for Christmas since my wife and i had a great experience our previous visit. I left my wallet there a couple of months ago and they kindly called me right away. So, we came back for the repeat visit. I had the cioppino. Fabulous!
