Atmosphere/ambience very nice, service attentive and courteous, food excellent! What’s not to love?
Very good food. The Buffalo Carpaccio was amazing!
After all the anticipation, the food left me feeling let down as it didn’t taste fresh.

Primal is a highly regarded restaurant that offers an excellent dining experience. The service is exceptional, with staff going above and beyond to describe in detail what is being served, including ingredients and cooking methods. Customers find the body language of the servers to be personable and focused, making them feel valued and remembered. The food is delicious, with highlights including Bison Carpaccio, Bone Marrow, Bison 40oz, and Tiramisu. The atmosphere is energetic and warm, perfect for a date night, group dinner, or solo meal. While some guests have enjoyed the Squid Ink Risotto from the former menu, others recommend the Primal signature cut ribeye as extremely good, especially when paired with pasta dishes served family style. The restaurant is known for its creativity and local focus, featuring ethically sourced, grass-fed options that meet various dietary needs. Many meals are full of flavor and cooked to perfection, making it a recommended spot for special occasions. Although the noise level can be high due to the restaurant's popularity, the overall consensus is that the high-quality cuisine, outstanding service, and memorable experience make Primal a worthwhile dining destination, despite its relatively expensive prices. The tasting menu and wine pairing are highly recommended for those seeking a special culinary experience. Some guests would love to see more local protein options on the menu, as most meat dishes feature pork.
