Owned by a trio of talented chefs, the menus at Prima Italia were developed to offer patrons authentic, contemporary Italian cuisine. The highest quality raw ingredients, such as eggs from Happy Egg based in Rogers, AR, who also supply Michelin starred restaurants in New York and Los Angeles, are used to create fresh pasta daily. The pasta is made using equipment by Imperia & Monfeṙṙina imported directly from Asti, Italy. Breads are sourced locally from Harvest Moon Bakery.

We are excited for Fort Smith to experience our cuisine in this beautiful space!

    A perfect evening! Manager and staff (waitress, bartender, hostess) are professional, welcoming, and top notch in every way! We went on a night with music (After 5 Jazz) with the perfect mix of background music performed at the perfect volume to enjoy both the music and my table partners. Food was delicious. My Gimlet cocktail was yum. Highly recommend!

    I love Vincent!! He was amazing and added such personality to the picturesque evening that my date and I were having. Vincent came up with a dish that was exactly what I wanted and the chef did a wonderful job preparing it. The cellist added even more class to an already elegant space. What a delightful evening!

    Came in for the new years special menu and everything we got was cold. For the price that you pay I don’t think all the courses should come out cold. I didn’t say anything in the beginning but then when my short ribs came I out cold with no flavor I had to send it back.
