Review Summary

Primo & Secondo offers a relaxing atmosphere and consistently attentive service, with authentic Italian dishes crafted from high quality ingredients. The menu shines with well cooked pasta, flavorful risottos, and a carefully balanced wine list that enhances the experience. While some find prices a bit high, portions and overall quality are repeatedly praised, and service is described as warm and unobtrusive. A note of caution mentions a dessert surcharge that was not disclosed at the time of ordering, but otherwise visits are described as delicious, memorable, and worth returning for.

This was my go to spot pre Covid. Haven’t been there since unfortunately. Mushroom risotto was on point arguably the best in the city, the clam pasta was decent. Appetizers were all great, zucchini flower, figs. Prices are high but where hasn’t it increased. Service was good but the vibes from the old staff way better, new younger waiter was a bit off imho. Would only repeat if owner/cook is there.

Risotto est trop salé, je ne peux même pas manger une 3è cuillère. J’ai parlé cela à la serveuse mais elle n’a pas donné aucune réponse. Autrement les vins, services & atmosphère sont bons.
