The food is excellent, the service is too. Though completely full, atmosphere is just a nice place for a quiet meal. Very conducive for conversation

We came here spontaneously and we were pleasantly surprised. Staff was professional, well mannered and welcoming. Atmosphere was romantic and classy. The food was absolutely great. A contender for the best lasagna I have ever had(and I have eaten at some great places in Manhattan), and the crab cake and shrimp were extraordinary as well. I had the chocolate mousse cake and my fiancee had the tiramisu, both were great for our individual palates. I like intense chocolate flavor, so it was perfect for me. The tiramisu was light and had a great balance of flavor. All in all, we had a great experience. We'll be back next time we are in the area, and we already recommended Primavera Ristorante to our friends.

Great restaurant! Intimate dining, excellent service. My go-to Italian restaurant dish is the chicken parmesan, which I rank as one of the best I have ever had. My colleagues had the salmon and they said it was good but not the best they ever got. Another coworker had the Berkshire pork chop, and he loved it! ThWe also had their calamari, which is also a go-to appetizer for me at Italian restaurants, and it was one of the best.e little pizza appetizer given to us was complimentary from the restaurant. Overall great restaurant will return.

Had an excellent night at Primavera. The food was exceptional: fresh, well prepared, and very flavorful without trying to hard to be. I had the soft shelled crab appetizer, which was massive and perfectly panko crusted with a delicious side salad. My wife had the best Caesar salad of her life. Moving on to the entrees, she had the rack of lamb cooked medium rare, and I had the red snapper. The lamb was extremely tender, and had this delicate buttery taste and some kind of reduction, it was phenomenal. My red snapper was macadamia nut crusted, with a finally chopped mango papaya and avocado slaw on top with what seemed like a garlic Parmesan cream sauce with coconut. Best red snapper dish I've ever had. For dessert she had the best cannoli either one of us have ever had, along with one of the best (or maybe tied for tops?) tiramisu I've ever had!

All portions were perfect, and despite a busy Father's Day weekend, everything came out pretty quickly. Our server was very kind and helpful, but we did want to give a big shout out to Trish the hostess! Our table was right next to her host stand, and she very graciously and quietly jumped in quite a few times as a supporting role when she had down time, which ended up really making our experience seamless. Trish was our unsung hero!

We can't wait to come back and try what else has to offer! Don't change a thing Primavera!

I went to this restaurant to celebrate my two sisters' birthdays. Service from beginning to end was excellent. The restaurant is small, and I would advise reservations. They have a wonderful menu of great Italian dishes prepared to perfection. We ordered appetizers, which were calamari, shrimp arrabiata, and the meatballs with fresh ricotta. All were excellent. Our main entrees we ordered were the seafood cappalini, lasagna w/ meat sauce, and the pork chop. The seafood cappalini was excellently prepared, just simply delicious with plenty of lobster, shrimp, mussels, and clams! Double cut pork chop could easily feed two people. Lasagna was delicious as well. Don't skip the desserts. The New York cheese cake is a must try. I highly recommend this restaurant.

This was our second wedding venue for friends. The food and service was first rate. Drinks were fabulous along with the horderves They served eggplant napoleon as the appetizer, Cesar salad, and boneless braised short ribs with red wine sauce over risotto. The pastry and wedding cake ? was delicious. The bus to and from the restaurant was perfect to get us back to the hotel.
