    Went to Primi for the first time. We were seated immediately but near the bar. The noise level was intense. We’re older people so could barely hear each other. I have to say the food was delish. We shared a wedge salad; he got the filet and I got the Wellington. Next time I would say sauce on the side. Way too much and it made a mess of the delicious mashed potatoes that came with it. The crème brûlée and cappucino were outstanding. I would go back but next time ask for a table in the other room when I make the reservation.

    Dinner was delicious! Reccomend the mozzarella as a starter and a getting the spicy penne vodka as an appetizer for the table. Drinks were delicious and noise level was perfect. Great spot.

    I had a reservation for a standard table and they automatically put us at a high top.I told them I did not request a high top amd showed them my emailed reservation, so they had to move us. Although the server was very friendly she was quite slow and not as attentive as she should have been after I told her we needed to be at the theatre and only had a certain amount of time. The menu was a little bit misleading with regards to the prefix. The food was very good.
