"From the moment I stepped into Come Prima, I was enveloped in an ambiance of class and sophistication. The restaurant's elegant lighting and tasteful interior decorations set the stage for a truly delightful dining experience. The walls, adorned with nostalgic black and white photographs, added a touch of bygone elegance to the modern setting. The thoughtful layout of the tables afforded a private oasis in the bustling space, allowing for intimate conversations at a comfortable speaking volume—a perfect setting for a romantic date. The service was impeccable; waiters were not just welcoming but incredibly attentive, striking the perfect balance between being available for our every need without being intrusive. The variety in the appetizer bread basket was a precursor to the diversity of flavors we were about to enjoy. When we ordered a salad and pasta to share, the wait staff considerately provided us with individual plates, a small detail that did not go unnoticed. The generosity of the portions was impressive, leaving me satisfyingly full after just half of the pasta and salad. However, it was the Orecchiette pasta that stole the show—its ear-shaped morsels were bathed in a creamy sauce that hugged every curve, creating a symphony of texture and flavor that exceeded our every expectation. To finish, the complimentary berry cookie sticks, fresh and infused with a delightful zest, were the perfect sweet note to end on. My return to Come Prime isn't a matter of if, but when, as the rest of the menu awaits my eager anticipation."

"You will have the most amazing dining experience at Come Prima! From the moment you walk in, you are treated like a celebrity! Johnny and the team go out of their way to make you feel welcome! The food is superb! And, the vibe is exhilarating! Enjoy!!!"
