Had an incredible dinner - the lasagna special and rainbow trout special. Both were amazing. The best part of the night was the owner stopping by to ask how we enjoyed our food, and when he heard we were celebrating a birthday, he brought out a beautifully presented and absolutely delicious lemon cake. Vibrant flavors and the best cake I’ve ever had. Thank you for an amazing experience. 10 stars!

Fabulous restaurant, excellent service, beautiful atmosphere, delicious food, and exquisite wines! Made a reservation for 13 for the holidays and it did not disappoint! The place is beautifully cozy and intimate. I highly recommend the calamari, lobster ravioli, and a glass of Francesco wine. My family had such a lovely time, that we decided to make this place our newest christmas eve’s eve tradition! This is a special place to take a date, family, your friends, or even yourself for a wonderful evening! Definitely a must visit place if you live in Jacksonville!

The atmosphere is so elegant and cozy. My reservations for the little table by the window. It was so beautiful with the candle light, rose and two person setting. The food was excellent ordered the Mozzarella for appetizer. Shrimp Fettuccine Cabarna with no scallions as my entree. The sauce could of been a little less soupy more thicker. All of it was on the bottom of the bowl. So we had to just spoon it onto the top of the pasta. They don't have the olive oil with the herbs mixed together so it's just butter now. The bread was a little too hard the oil mixture made it soak into the bread. All in all I enjoyed it and I'll continue to go back. This place is awesome with true authentic Italian. The service is top notch as well. George the Front of the house manager and Steward the waiter awesome service. These two give a great face to this restaurant. 1st impressions are always last impressions. They will take great care of you.

We just moved to Jacksonville and are excited to have found our new "go-to" restaurant in town! Our group 5 ranged from 11 to 80 years young, and everybody loved it. The atmosphere, food, and house wines were all 5 stars. The service was 5 star time 2! They made us feel like family, and we look forward to returning soon.

Primmi Piatti is truly a culinary masterpiece. The food is simply amazing, bursting with flavors that transport you straight to Italy. The service is out of this world, with attentive staff who go above and beyond to make your dining experience unforgettable. The desserts are a work of art, and the extensive wine list perfectly complements the exquisite flavors. It's a dining destination that exceeds all expectations.

A quaint family owned restaurant in the heart of Jacksonville. Come early, or make reservations. Bring good company and enjoy yourselves, you won't be disappointed. I ordered two specials, a cup of pasta fagioli and a four cheese lasagna. With two Peroni, I left full and satisfied. The atmosphere is loud, but it's Italian, come on. 🤌

I wasn’t sure what to expect. I have driven by this place for ages. We finally stopped to eat. It was great. The inside looks so much better then I anticipated. The place is small so make a reservation.
The service was great. The food was amazing. This is not Olive Garden. I bet they don’t even have a microwave in the back.
All in all I really enjoyed everything.

A wonderful little place. We got lucky with no reservation because we came early on a Friday night. Reservations on a Friday and probably Saturday are a must. The food was superb.
Becky Pelletier
BENISSIMO! What a gem! We enjoyed a spectacular evening. Isabella, our server was not only adorable but a perfect server. The lasagna was to die for. The lobster Ravioli was incredible. The clams in garlic was delicious. We met the owner himself. What a warm and personable gentleman he is. We will be back. Can't say enough!
Joseph Sierk
Went here several times, and other than the food being immaculate, the service was beyond anything I could've imagined and the atmosphere made us feel like we were in Italy. Hope to go back soon!
Sheena Heywood
This is a very charming restaurant! I took my family here to celebrate my 15th year anniversary with my job. The staff was wonderful, our server and the manager were very good to us. The food was delicious. We will be back.

This isn’t just a restaurant. It’s a place to celebrate with the people that mean the most to you. It’s a memory you’ll look back on for the rest of your life. It’s the comfort of home. It’s humble and warm. The owner cares and is present. The servers are noninvasive but still attentive. The food doesn’t need an introduction. We celebrated my friends 25th birthday here and we have decided it is the birthday celebration spot from now on. 10/10 will be talking about this place to everyone.
Gladys Gonzalez
Primi piatti restaurant was superb. We went for our granddaughter's 16th birthday dinner. The food was amazing and the service was fantastic. The evening was everything we hoped it would be. I highly recommend this restaurant located in the Jacksonville area.
Regina R
Authentic Italian food, probably one of the best in Florida. The wine of the house is amazing, goes great with their food. Excellent service! Super friendly staff! Pasta made in-house! It is just perfect.
Karen Holley
Small and quaint Italian with friendly, helpful staff. The chicken cacciatore was the best I have ever had and they happily accommodated my request to serve if over sautéed spinach instead of pasta to keep the carbs down. Should have taken a before pic as there wasn’t much left after! Delicious Prosecco!
Pamela Wright
Wow, so yummy. She crab soup was fantastic. 4 cheese lasagna was so filling could not eat it all.
Will be back on next visit.
Gaby Lovera
This place is an absolute GEM!
The service is fantastic, the atmosphere is superb - intimate, pleasant and relaxing. The food is outstanding, we had the mussels as an entry, and the caprese salad. The mussels were fresh and the aromatics of the sauce were supremely good. For seconds, we had a Spaghetti Puttanesca, which had a FANTASTIC red sauce, a lasagna and a Spaghetti with shrimp. All three dishes were beautifully made. To make things even better, we were blessed with two complimentary desserts - a Tiramisu that was superb and a pastry filled with hazelnuts and chocolate that was to die for. I will be returning sometime soon to try the rest of the menu. Definitely a 10/10.

I've driven by this place dozens of times, but have never gone in, so I decided to have my birthday dinner there. As soon as we walked in they asked why are we so dressed up and I told them, then they asked for my name. During my dinner they offered me wine but I declined since my friends and I couldn't afford it, then the owner gave us a glass on the house! After our dinner they sang me happy birthday and gave me a dessert. Our waiter was so great, the food was amazing, and the owner made sure everything was good. Then we walked around riverside for a bit, on our way back to get our cars we saw the owner drinking wine with a couple inside, he told us to come in too. The 6 of us ended up finishing 4 bottles of wine and having amazing conversation. The restaurant is small but it's perfect, it even looks like the dining room at my grandmother's house. They treated me like family and made me feel so special. I will definitely be back again, I only regret not going in sooner.

Primi Piatti is such an unassuming little place, but what a pleasant surprise - a hidden gem! I can think of absolutely nothing to suggest for improvement. Both the food and service were perfect. We shared an order of mussels - delicious, hubby had linguine and clams - excellent, but my dish was the stand out - red snapper cooked with garlic, capers and wine over pasta with green beans and carrots......oh....my....goodness - cooked to perfection! I've lived and eaten all over, and this fish was crazy good! We will definitely be back!

When you book a table at Primi Piatti, get ready to have some absolutely outstanding food! Their pasta is homemade, their sauces are handcrafted to perfection, and their portions are generous. The only challenge at this restaurant is deciding which delicious option to choose! It really doesn't matter as long as you finish your meal with the Italian lemon cake and cappuccino! Staff at this restaurant are also super friendly and welcoming, and they occasionally have someone playing the violin, which makes it all terribly romantic.
Ashley Lombardo
It goes without saying that the meal and wine were superb (in fact, the best sauvignon blanc I've ever had), but there are not enough wonderful things I can say about the service. Coming from a Sicilian woman, I'll simply say that I'll never go to another Italian restaurant in town. Primi Piatti excels in every aspect of Italian culture and cuisine. We left feeling like we'd finished a holiday meal with family; full, refreshed, a little buzzed and very thankful that we’d gone.
Lorna Meehan
Excellent. Wonderful atmosphere. Friendly service. Authentic food. Live music. So much fun. When u walk
In you are transported to Italy by the amazing and fabulous smell of garlic and tomatoes and herbs that all say Italia!
Christina Ezzo Banks
Really enjoyed our meal. The owner and staff were so warm and friendly. The food was excellent as well. We will go back if we return to Jacksonville!
Kyle Champagne
The food was absolutely phenomenal. The pasta was made in house and the service was amazing. The owner even made it a point to stop by and offer us limoncello at the end of our meal. I can't wait to go back.
Mauricio Ventura
A jewel of a restaurant in the middle of Riverside in Jacksonville. Traditional Italian Cuisine. The chi crab soup is delicios, a must have, the seafood lasagna is like no other you ever had, I also recommend the Chicken Canellone and my favorite the Lamb chop. Great ambience and excellent service. Ask for Leo or Giorgio two of the best chefs in the area who will cook for you the freshest dishes.
Alexia Vizcarra Holman
George is like family. Every chance we get, we find a reason to celebrate with them. One time we cheated with Il Desco and we were so sorry that we had to come in after and apologize. This place is, by far, my favorite...And having family from S. Italy, this Northern Italy Cuisine spot is just AMAZING. Do yourself a favor and try them. Just amazing.
Brittany Lomax
My experience with Primi Piatti is nothing short of incredible. I took my mother to this hidden gem for her birthday. The food was delicious, but the service is parallel to none. I cannot remember the waitress who assist us. She insisted on the happy birthday song. I am glad whole restaurant joined in on the rendition plus some family friends who were randomly in the area. Thanks for making it a great day for my mom. Awesome memory and good eats. �
Annette Brito
Love the staff, authentic Italian cuisine and the wine choices are great!
Brian Austin
Food was amazing. Service was a little slow due to they had a huge party. Prices a little high but not to bad. Server gave us tiramisu on the house cause it was our first visit after trying three times to eat here. It was the best we have ever had. Will be returning
