I've been to Prima 3-4 times and each time is been great! What we've eaten recently: - Bread Plate: Would suggest, the fresh ricotta is great - Caesar Salad: really really good caesar. Highly suggest - Snap Pea Salad: Good, if you want a salad but not the caesar. - Meatballs: Great meatballs! Can't go wrong with these. Save some bread to go with these - Rigatoni alla Vodka: Consistent, spicy and delicious. - Chicken Parmesan: Really really good! More chicken than pasta - Chicken Scarpariello: Amazing, very unique and delicious - Brandt Tomahawk: Steak was great and it fed 3+ men, but I wouldn't suggest it because other steaks on the menu are just as good. Don Melon is an excellent cocktail! The only downfall of Prima is parking can be difficult if you're looking for street parking. Paid lots are nearby though. Pro Tip: There's a speakeasy style back room (called the Rose Room) to grab drinks before or after dinner.

Amazing and easily one of my favorite restaurants in Boston. The food was delicious including the drinks. The service was exceptional and they go above and beyond here. The entire vibe and ambiance of the restaurant was great. They had a more intimate section that is opened up in the back, I believe this might be new, but better for dates. The front house was very busy understandably because everyone just wants to be there and have a great time.

Decor and ambiance at Prima are stunning, such a beautiful restaurant!! Went on a Saturday evening and the energy in the main room was lively and loud. Energy in the Rose Room was more intimate and quiet. Service was a bit slow, waiting for a while to order our drinks and then food. Meatballs appetizer was incredible, might be my fave meatballs in Boston! Ziti bolognese and bucatini amatritiana were a bit underwhelming for flavor though. Portions were large. Pistachio gelato dessert was amazing. Would definitely go back as it's a beautiful date spot and would try different dishes! Table next to use got chicken parm and espresso martinis that looked great

Came here for my boyfriend's birthday dinner and we were delightedly seated in the back room where it was much more calm, romantic and private. Front of the house had the bar and was very lively, which would be perfect for a group dinner. Food was fantastic. The truffle cheese balls was recommend by my server and we absolutely loved it. Wish there was even more on the plate! We also got the filet mignon and the chicken parm. Filet mignon was cooked to our perfect medium and tasted great. Our only hiccup was completely forgetting to order the roasted carrots as well so our plate looked a little silly (lol). The chicken parm was also delicious and the portion was actually insane. Could easily feed 2 people. Great experience and would come back again!
