Small Italian restaurant serving a variety of dishes, pizzas, and subs. Food was really good and it's decently priced. Will visit again soon.

It used to be the best food and best value for money but while I understand the price increase due to cost of ingredients increase, the quality and quantity has dramatically decreased. Just a few mouthfuls and it was gone. Then i noticed the food container is smaller than it used to be.

Well it may have been here for 35+ years, but it's just alright. I have now gotten three different types of meals from here and I will say:Only order if you are not expecting anything special. I am sorry, this mom and pop joint could use an update. The atmosphere here is dated. It's literally 1986 when you walk through the door. Where's the Mrs. Pac-Man arcade game? Maybe play this up, I don't know. I have ordered pizza, pasta and subs. On three different occasions. The pizza. It was good, a little bit better topping quality and it would be top notch. Excellent sauce to topping ratio, and the crust was the perfect firmness to hold a fold. The sauce is lacking a little punch or something to set it off from the water crust. Good cheese, and the toppings were plenty. The pasta was bland. Sadly it tasted like frozen reheated pre-cooked food. The baked penne was just okay. Nothing stood out. The ravioli was the same. It looked delicious but it wasn't. The subs are also mediocre. The meatball is mealy and 1 shy of filling the whole sandwich. The eggplant parmigiana sub was soggy, and we are less than 3 minutes from the place. We ate it, and it was a bit tastier than the meatball or sausage, but it was forkaterial, not a sandwich you hold in your hands. The staff was nice and there was not much communication. An empty dining area with a few tables and chairs lets you know some people come there for lunch.

First time trying this place. We got the baked penne with meatballs and the eggplant parmigiana. The food is just ok. Not exceptional nor terrible. The pasta was a bit soft/overcooked for my preference but still palatable. The prices are reasonable, considering today's inflationary environment.

I would give a better review but this was just for pick up. I'm rating them on the food and service. I get there was welcomed. It was hot inside cause the door was open but no one was there eating .... Yet. Anyways staff is great and the salad is always good. They pack the container and give 2 containers of Italian dressing and garlic bread. I've always liked their antipasto and still

Prime Italian is a delightful destination for lovers of Italian cuisine. The ambiance is a charming blend of rustic and contemporary, making it a comfortable and welcoming dining environment. The menu offers a wide range of Italian classics, each prepared with attention to detail and an emphasis on authentic flavors. I particularly enjoyed their lasagna, which was a warm, comforting delight layered with rich sauce and perfectly cooked pasta. Their seafood linguini also deserves praise for its fresh ingredients and beautifully balanced flavors. Service was prompt and professional, although there were times when it felt slightly rushed. Also, the prices are a bit on the higher end, but given the quality of the food and the overall dining experience, it's worth the occasional splurge. A definite recommendation for those craving quality Italian fare!

Pizzas are good. They take care of the food. Pizza is hot when you get it. Pizza parlor is in a good location.

Doesn’t even deserve a star, Nastiest place I’ve ordered from the pineapples were rotten and tastes horrible made the whole pizza go bad, plus I had to put it back in the oven it wasn’t even cooked all the way never ordering here again! Don’t waste ur time I want my money back I threw the food out

I was in the mood for pasta and this place is close by. I ordered the lunch special which was spaghetti and meat sauce. The spaghetti was very cold and not much sauce. I guess you get what you pay for.

Pizza is ok, crust needs help. Chicken wings are not deep fried the are done on top of grill in a pan. I asked for crispy/well done and i got blond wings fatty as F—k. Not good at all would never go back. I had to air fry my wings to eat them. Why pay $43.69 for food you have to cook before eating. The reason why I ordered food is so I didn’t need to cook but that didn’t happen tonight. Try Joe peeps great pizza there but not the wings.

On Tuesday, I was driving home from Target when I came across Prime Italian and saw signs saying "We Deliver!" in the window. I love Italian food and I love when businesses have their own delivery service instead of using Postmates, Uber Eats, etc, mostly because I know those third party delivery services absolutely gauge the business preparing the food so they get very little profits in return.I got home and took a look at the menu and said to my lady, "we gotta try this place out". She ordered a calzone and I got myself a cheesesteak. I was ready to grub on what I thought was going to be a delicious cheesesteak with fresh ingredients--why else would a restaurant call themselves "Prime Italian" if it wasn't prime? The delivery man was punctual and courteous, and seemed like he had been doing this a while. Unfortunately, I don't think he was the one that made our food, because he would probably know better.Anyone that knows me, knows how much food I can put away in one sitting. This was the first time I can remember in the last decade where I didn't finish a meal because it was just so incredibly bad... The cheesesteak was measly, absolutely soaked with oil and mozzarella cheese, and the peppers, onions, and mushrooms looked like they all had just come out of a can. The bottom half of the bread that it was made on looked like it had entered a wet t-shirt contest--was completely soaked. I opened the cheesesteak up to look at the insides and that's when I knew I wouldn't be able to finish. My lady's calzone wasn't nearly as bad, but both of our meals were incredibly bland and made me feel like I was back in high school eating cafeteria food. And don't even get me started on the handful of iceberg lettuce and two slices of tomato that they have the nerve to call a "side salad"... I've seen more appetizing pieces of grass at a golf course.There was nothing special about the calzone whatsoever either. The sauce just didn't have any sort of hearty flavor and I'm pretty sure the cheese was supplied by Sysco, it felt like chewing on Silly Putti. I'll try again if I'm feeling lucky, but I might just wind up avoiding this place all together.
