Prima Pasta Salads Panini

We returned to Prima with family hoping to have as wonderful experience as our first visit just over a year ago.We were not disappointed.The staff are engaging, attentive, knowledgeable and fun. The space is long and narrow with entrances both front and rear. It was comfortable and easy to chat, lighting was soft but adequateLyndale was parked full so we used the lot in the rear.Since there was 6 of us we were seated at a family style oval table near the server isle. For the most part everyone had something different, ravioli, chicken Marsala, etc. I had previously had the lamb and loved it. This time our waitress mentioned a pork loin special, and it was excellent.The night was spent sharing the excellent food, laughter and a special time with loved ones. Everyone loved our time with Prima and I'm confident you will too.

What a lovely place for dinner. This is one of those places that I could eat at once every few weeks. The staff is friendly and gracious. The bread looks unassuming - just some baguette with foil-wrapped pats of butter. But there's something so fresh and tasty about it. It's an intangible kind of yumminess that makes you want to keep eating more. The chicken and mushroom Marsala linguini was nice and al dente, with big slices of king oyster mushroom and a tangle of leeks and spinach. The capellini pomodoro was also nice and firm, with bits of tangy tomatoes. I will definitely be back again to the their other pastas

LOVE this farm to table spot and unique Italian dishes, along with favorites. Always my first choice when I want a treat. Very Friendly staff, who know their customers! Quiet and cozy, put it on your bucket list! Enjoy the photos of my recent visit with friends.

This restaurant is a charming, cozy spot, but a word of advice--make sure you have a reservation before you go. The parking is conveniently located at the back, but without a reservation, it's almost impossible to get in, especially on weekends. Even the bar is packed, so walk-ins are a no-go.We started with the calamari, which was fantastic, setting the tone for the rest of the meal. The Caesar salad was just right, with the perfect balance of dressing and cheese. My wife ordered the spaghetti alla vodka, and it was simply mouthwatering. You could really taste the vodka, and the meatballs were seasoned to perfection.I opted for the spicy Italian sausage with chicken, paired with a basil pesto sauce over regular pasta. The flavors were spot on. And let's not forget the table bread and butter--we couldn't stop eating it while waiting for our pasta.The ambience is lovely, and the service was attentive and friendly. Overall, it's a great place for a special night out, but be sure to plan ahead and make that reservation.

Had a really great dinner here. The food was amazing, very fresh and well prepared. Good amount of choices for meals, salads, appetizers and deserts. Their wine list was nice as well. The service was spot on, very attentive wait staff. It was small but very nice dining room, I would highly recommend making reservations. You will not be disappointed in dining at Prima.

Great service in a fun and friendly atmosphere. The food is good comfort food . And it's family owned and operated. Not many of those left in Minnesota after the pandemic.

This place is DELICIOUS. We have the Gnudi, and Bruschetta as appetizers, which were divine. I had the chicken fettuccine Alfredo as my main course. It had this delicious hint of lemon in it and I could have had a whole extra bowl! I would definitely recommend this place to someone who's craving Italian food. I will say my only complaint is that the seating was kind of uncomfortable, other than that, great service and food!

Flavorful cozy pastas and warm inviting ambience! We may have just found our new neighborhood Italian go to spot we came here for our birthday and got take out - both dishes were clearly made with love and were perfect portions for full bellies without feeling too heavy! I loved how many pasta options there were and can't wait to come back and try more. Service was great and I appreciate the big parking lot in the back of the complex !

We met friends here for dinner and loved it! We had excellent service, great wine and fantastic food. I live out of state and cannot wait to go back. Beautiful little place for family, friends, work get togethers.

Fantastic. Why am I just now trying this place? We got lucky enough to get a table without calling ahead. OK parking behind the restaurant which is great because not a ton of on street parking. Place is so beautiful when you walk in. Service was great and the food- oh the food! Fresh and super flavorful. Can't wait to go back!
