    Took my girlfriend here for a valentine's day date and was very happy with how happy she was. The vibe is the Primo room was cool and the drinks were delicious.

    This is always our go to place for upscale Italian dining in Banner Elk. Consistently great drinks and reliable service with an extensive menu. I am from NYC originally so I know quality Italian food and this place earns the vote. The nicest part is the distinctive ambience compared to other venues in town.

    I checked in with the hostess. She said it would be a few minutes. I checked in again a little bit later. Same hostess said a few more minutes. They were calling names out when it was time to be seated. I was also sitting across from her. Instead of looking at me and calling my name she sent me a text. Which I didn’t receive first 15mins. We found hair in the food. They did take the one salad off of the bill. The food wasn’t very good for the price. The service was okay. I wouldn’t go back.

    It used to be good now it is totally mediocre. I don’t know if they stopped caring or changed chefs but the last 2 times driving 1.15 hours was not worth it at all! Dissapointing

    The weather was beautiful so we sat outside on the patio. Everything was delicious! We always look forward to coming here when visiting the area.

    Delicious meal in an intimate corner of Primos. The music was inappropriate and loud, not conducive to conversation.

    I thought the menu at Primos would be different than the one at Sorrentos. We were given the same one so we could’ve eaten at Sorrentos. The only difference was the ambiance. Primos is fine dining with the same food.

    There were problems with the reservation made through Open Table and the first person at the desk was quite rude about us not calling in to make a reservations, although their website took me to Open Table. However another young lady found us a table in the Bistro - not in the section requested, and apologized for the mix-up. Food and table service were very good and I would recommend this restaurant but would suggest you also call when making a reservations for the more upscale areas of the restaurant.
