                                                              We love Primo Grill, we are repeat customers. The only things I always consider are how cold it is outside, because the whole left side of the space gets blasted with air each time the door opens (I just keep my coat on), and the noise level is difficult for me due to a hearing disability. The food is so delicious, and we always have exceptional service, so its worth it :)

Main dinners were good too, standout was the lamb. We had a wheelchair user in our group who was a last minute add on to my reservation and they were accommodating of that too. The server was SO great. Knew the whole menu very well and was super sweet. Will be back next time I’m in Tacoma.
