   My mom had the best Mother’s Day brunch! She loves the original menu, but the pre-fixed menu was exquisite! Our waitress was a doll as well! Set the tone for the rest of the day… Will definitely make it a tradition from now on!

   Food was not very good for the price. The service was very disappointing. We had two reservations one for four people and the other for six since they had no space for six people. When I called to confirm I let them know both reservations were together and they said they would try to accommodate us together or hopefully close by. We didn’t get seated until 35 min after our reservation and the 2 people one was in the bar no where close to the other table. What made us more upset was that there was plenty of 4 people and 2 people tables available yet they would not make the exception to sit us together. These tables remained empty until we finished eating. To finish it off the service at the bar was very slow since they were focused on makjng drinks for the whole reataurant. We came to prima because of the hype but it’s totally just hype. They food is not as good as expected, portions are okay, service wasn’t good and it was highly priced. Personally I would not come back especially since there are plenty of Italian food options in Boston.

   Staff was friendly and timely. We liked the vibrant and classic atmosphere. They addressed our concern over portion size of 1 of our 2 filets (both were supposed to be 6oz. One was obviously half the size of the other and looked to be only 3-4 oz.) The food seems great quality. However the meat and vegetables were way too salty. I would come again and ask for low or no salt.

   The service could have made the experience a lot better. The server didn’t know the menu and couldn’t tell us about the dishes we wanted more information on. We barely saw her and often asked others for more water. The food arrived fast but our actual server was terrible.

   I really enjoyed the food and ambiance, but the service was tough. The waiter took our initial order and then never came back, we had to waive over another waiter to place a second round of drinks to have with our dinner. The waiter never really came back over and we had to flag him down to bring us the check at the end, and we gave him the card. It took 30 more minutes to get the check back, and The waiter then accidentally ran the card on the WRONG TABLE! And it was my birthday. I really liked this restaurant but for an expensive birthday meal I expected more.

   My fiancée and I had a great time going to Prima for the first time and celebrating 7 years since our first date. Prima has always been on our list to check out and we finally made it. Once we walked in we loved the ambiance and atmosphere of Prima! Once seated we were attended to quickly and our waitress for the night was very sweet and helpful and attentive. She inquired if we were celebrating anything special and we had informed her of our anniversary date and she proceeded to bring out 2 complimentary glasses for us to toast our occasion. She had noticed I was not drinking alcohol and brought over a glass filled with ginger ale which I thought was very sweet and attentive. The whole night was amazing and atmosphere felt intimate and just our vibe. We both enjoyed our meals and our waitress made us feel like we were attended to while also giving us our time and space to enjoy each other's company. We look forward to dining at Prima again for future date nights!

   Our waitress was lovely - she brought out free champagne for us for our anniversary, the food was amazing - I highly recommend the vodka pasta and the yellow cake for dessert, and I loved the vibe of the place.

    We had to wait 45 minutes for our food to arrive; probably due to several events going on in the private rooms. Perhaps more staff on these days?
