    Our first time to Prima and it was a great experience. Katherine was our server and she was spectacular. She gave us great recommendations and was knowledgeable about the menu. We were running late for our reservation and the hostess could not have been more accommodating. We had the tuna crudo and meatballs. Tuna was fresh and the red sauce with the meatballs was chefs kiss* My boyfriend and I have just moved to the area and were excited to check out Prima, the hype is real. We can’t wait to return. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    We always enjoy Markoh's for cocktails and dinner. The food never disappoints, and the atmosphere is cozy and comfortable. Depending on the size of the crowd, it can range from very quiet to boisterous.

    Dined on Valentines Day with my wife and it was amazing. Food and service was top notch. I keep thinking about the grilled shrimp and polenta appetizer. It was incredible. Wish we had room for dessert because the German Chocolate Cake looked delicious. Will definitely be going back soon.

    My girlfriend and I both work in hospitality and came for an early Valentine's dinner since we have to work for it. Our waiter, Jimmy, was amazing, we ordered all of our food at once and asked Jimmy to pace it out using his judgement. We also asked for recommendations on a fruity/dry Wine pairing, which he did wonderfully and paired with multiple items we ordered. Everything was delicious and the oyster mushrooms were spectacular. To end our meal they brought us over a delicious digestivo and even got us a reservation downstairs at Hecate following our dinner. Amazing experiences thank you!
