Editorial Review for Primizie Osteria Italian Café & Wine Bar – by Citysearch Editors

In Short
Flavorful chicken, beef and vegetable combinations are wrapped in signature bread for Eastside dwellers and stylish downtown denizens, who also nosh on fresh salads, soups and pastas. Despite the Italian menu, the concrete floors, high ceilings, soft colors, industrial fixtures and dark wooden accents favor a West Coast loft aesthetic. Large windows look out on the street at this warm and open counter service establishment, providing ample sunlight and a more ambient mood at night.

User Reviews for Primizie Osteria Italian Café & Wine Bar

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

We decided to try the restaurant when in the area during lunch time, and it was a very nice surprise! We had the soup of the day (creamy pesto with pureed vegetables), a panini rustico, and a lemon cheesecake. The prices are slightly higher than some lunches, but the flavor and quality of the food are well worth it. The service was attentive, and subsitutions were fine. We also took some soup to go. Parking was easy and free behind the building. You will be back!

I was so impressed with this Cafe. We love to try new restaurants and we had heard many nice things about Primizie. Our waitress was very efficient and polite. Even on a Friday night it did not take long to be served and the food was perfect. I highly recommend this place for dinner !
