Fun spot to hangout with friends for happy hour! The drinks and food are good with fast service from the bartenders as well. It's located on the second floor if you're having a hard time locating it

it's hard for Prima to miss, literally. This a spot with great vibes and ambiance. I've had a couple great nights out here and they haven't disappointed yet. The staff is super friendly and helpful, Bria is such a great bartender & the food -- *flips bob*. Whoever is in the kitchen, be in the KITCHEN, ya hear me? I've had the crab fries at Prima more times than I can count and they get the job done each time. The old bay wings? Cooked to perfection, somebody tell Keith to pull up. I promise, Prima will not disappoint. Can't wait for more nights here.

Prima DC is such a welcomed addition to the DC area! Great vibes, drinks & food! I've been to several different kinds of events here. From club nights with great DJs, to watching college football & UFC/boxing, and also attended a really dope private 30th birthday party. It's a really versatile space with a huge outdoor patio. The owners and bartenders are super accommodating and friendly. The drinks are strong! And the mango habanero wings are BOMB. It's always clean & no nonsense! A safe space to get lit!!

I love Prima DC! This is one of the cutest and chic lounges I found in DC ! It's right across from the 930 club in DC. Prima is located on the 2nd floor and District sports is on the lower level. More importantly, the owners Bethel and Matt are a joy to partner with! I recently partnered with Prima DC for a Thursday happy hour event . Throughout the whole planning process, they were in communication, customized my needs and understand bringing people together! Where else in DC can you find a classy happy hour that starts at 6pm and ends at 10pm???? Where else is there a covered patio ??? From the decor, to the couch, hookah, dj. Drinks, and bar food. I can't wait to go back!

Gorgeous space and has lovely staff. I found it difficult to locate since they don’t have proper signage to grab patrons' attention. Happy Hour deals are legit but don’t arrive to arrive because you’ll be one of few occupying the space.

If I could give NO star I would. I'm here now and have been for about 45 mins. It's extremely slow and the bartender has only been over once to give me a menu. She stated that she would be back in a couple of minutes and have yet to return. Instead, I've watched her pour shots for her friends and neglect the other patrons who are not seated at the bar and not her friends. Extremely rude and unprofessional'n

The space has a cute vibe that has everything covered from the cocktails to the music.I had the opportunity to try a couple of the cocktails and the Smokey Sunset stole my heart.The various chicken options provided ranged from wings to chicken sliders. I was thoroughly impressed by the salt & vinegar wings because it was a new take on a classic finger food.There is a weekly karaoke night, so make to check out their IG page for specific times.

I was happy to come by and check out this new spot in the city. I was curious to see what this lounge had to offer. Here are some thoughts:EnvironmentPrima might be hard to miss if it weren't for a sign on the door that leads you upstairs to a cozy intimate space filled with plenty of seating, a bar and an outside area for the cooler evenings. They also have a larger bar/restaurant downstairs (didn't get a chance to check it out). The vibe was set as soon as you enter the space - music playing, bar active and conversation flowing through out the venue. While you're treating yourself to a drink they also have a variety of games you can play from mancala to jenga to uno etc. The space is small and seems to be great place for happy hour. I would love to see what its like during a packed night. I will also say that it gets really warm in the space with a lot of people - i was lucky enough to have a seat at the bar right next to the ac but that could be an issue if a ton of people are there. Overall the space was nice and casual and a great place for drinks.ServiceThe bartenders were all great and attentive and made sure that I had what I needed. They were friendly and personable and had great energy for the space. They also controlled the playlist for that evening and didn't disappoint.Food and DrinksDidn't get a chance to try all of the food but there were a few options. The chicken tenders were okay. Nothing special - lives up to the usual bar food expectation. The wings were pretty good especially the garlic parmesan. I would definitely come back for those. The drinks were pretty good. I tried the smokey sunset that was good and refreshing and I also purchased my own old fashion that were solid for a lounge.OverallWe had a good time at Prima Lounge. The space was comfortable and cozy and seemed like it would be a good time for an evening out or an happy hour. The food was fine and the drinks were solid. I would definitely visit again with friends.
Very instagramable hookah lounge that offers indoor/outdoor seating. Good and drinks were very tasty. I recommend the garlic parm wings .

Location is nearly directly across from the 930 club, next to the gas station. There is also a small parking garage across the street for $20Upstairs area (so be prepared to walk up via a skinny stairwell). The food is apparently prepared from the restaurant below. They also have hookah. Good.The Bartenders were the best part of the whole experience. They were so nice, patient, helpful and sociable!!! I had the Beehive drink and it was so refreshing!!!Chairs/couches were plush and comfortable. There was also an outdoor rooftop area. It was kind of warm inside. Bathrooms are single stalls and in a tight area by the stairwellDope music Playlist and live DJ. At times, the music got too loud and I couldn't really hear over everyone I was talking to.There's games to play (UNO, Jenga, etc.) so you could really hang out with friends, play games, chat, drink, and smoke hookah. All in one stop!Had a good time at this business and I will be back!!
