• Italian • Libertyville
Booked 23 times today
When in the Libertyville area, we often make reservations here for lunch or dinner. While we have chosen several entrees, we recommend the Pesce al Vino Bianco featured on the Specials menu. The entree is prepared in a white wine sauce unlike any other. Presented over linguini nestled with artichokes, onions and cherry tomatoes, it is a delight you deserve.

Nice bistro atmosphere. Escargot was very good although we had to use the bread in the bread basket for dipping into the garlic butter. Steak and fish entrees were pretty good as well.

First time visiting LAGO. It exceeded our expectations!, Food, service, and the experience was great. The Sunday Dinner Special is great! It was a birthday celebration for my wife and they acknowledged it and our server, Vince brought her a cannoli dessert. His service as well as the entire staff was excellent and attentive. We couldn’t have been more pleased with a new restaurant experience. We will most certainly return.

    I’ve been eating at Primo for years and also held a birthday party there, so I’ve been a fan for a long time. Recently though, Primo seems to be getting better and better! I was there with a friend last night and everything was absolutely stellar! We were greeted warmly at the door and seated near the beautiful fireplace. I absolutely love the ambiance at Primo! Our server was fabulous, warm friendly and attentive but not disruptive. I’ve noticed the quality and size of the filet has improved over the years! Food and wine all fantastic! Thanks to Primo for a lovely evening!
