Overall we love Prima. Was a little disappointed when it took 30 min to get our drink ( they threw out ticket) we decided to let it go, and then they threw out our giftcard and while we were waiting for it to resolved we were told by hostess our table was needed for next party. Just a bit disappointing to be told we had to leave when the reasons things were taking so long were not us

The food is great but it is incredibly loud, almost to the point that you can’t hear the people across from you. We were placed at a table with isles on either side so we were right in the middle of the hustle and bustle, four person tables should not be there as it is too loud and crowded.

We had a wonderful brunch date! Sat in the new room, it was the perfect volume to chat. Our bartender Erin and waitress (dark hair, super sweet/attentive) were awesome and made sure our waters never went empty and timed our food well. Cheese + meat bowl could’ve been a meal! Tiramisu martini and Donna Granada were delish. Thank you to all who made this a great experience!

“I recently visited prima for brunch, and I absolutely loved it! The atmosphere was amazing—inviting and relaxing, perfect for a weekend outing. The food was exquisite; every dish was full of flavor and beautifully presented. The prices were reasonable for the quality and experience, which made it even better. Plus, the restaurant is so picturesque! It’s a great spot to take photos and capture lovely moments. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable brunch experience!

Our reservation for two landed us at a high top by the bar where patrons were standing less than a foot from our table. The noise was so loud it was difficult to have a conversation. While this was disappointing, the service and food were excellent. We will go back but only when we can get a table in a quieter section of the restaurant.
