Had a great experience. My aunt recommended it for the family to get together. The food was wonderful, I had the short ribs with risotto, my partner had the Sophia Loren. The short ribs were tender and the risotto was cooked perfect. The service was friendly. Our server made the experience fun. Prices were very reasonable for 7 people with appetizers and wine. Highly recommend this establishment.

My family has been going to this place for decades. We are from Italy and appreciate the authenticity of this establishment. The pizza is AMAZING and the tiramisu is very good. If you want authentic Italian, look no further!

We found this jewel while looking around for a restaurant. And we are so happy! Excellent food! A truly Italian place not a wanna be. Tired of chain restaurants with lot of msg and reduced menu, Primo is authentic and hand made style. Since now, we are going here to eat, plenty of menu options. I am glad they serve authentic antipasto. I attach pic of it and hand made cakes. By the way, the place is very nice also. Prices are much better. We ate more that in any of the 3 main chain restaurants around and we spent less.

I have been coming here since I was a young girl and each time I find the food unmatched and the presentation high quality. The owner is as warm and hospitable as they come and the service from the staff doesn't fall short behind. Will always be one of my Sarasota food landmark's.

Great place with great people. It was very, very busy, but they managed it well. We got a few drinks in the bar while waiting, and bartender she was very sweet.
Food was great. Salad dressing is wicked. I think it was on my lasagna as well. I had to lick my plate. Awesome!

Italian restaurant and grill.
The setting is like that of an Italian canteen, very spacious and with large and familiar tables.
All the decoration is very careful and there is a lot of detail to look at in the room while the moment passes.
The food is very tasty, in my case I tried grilled octopus which was very tender and tasty.
It has a good selection of wines and in addition to pasta they have a good variety of pizza.
Among the desserts there are several Italian classics, in my case I tried the cannoli and it was quite well done
The attention is very good, friendly and fast, they are always ready to help with any questions.
The place is not usually very crowded

We went last week for the first time and what a pleasant surprise. We were greeted by several people including the owner. Aaron was our server and took plenty of time guiding us through the menu. We had meatball sliders for a starter then spaghetti and meatballs, lasgna, pumpkin ravioli, fettuccine Alfredo with grilled chicken and it was all perfectly prepared. Great service, delicious food and a beautiful restaurant inside. We just reserved a table for 10 and we are going back tonight!!!
Aaron was great from start to finish and knows what to recommend to make any Italian food lover happy!!!
FIVE STARS PRIMO AND AARON!!!
