    This was our first time to eat at Primo, and the service was excellent! I got the mushroom ravioli which was delicious.We had a feta appetizer that we enjoyed and Caesar salads.

    This is one of my favorite restaurants in Chattanooga. For the first time tonight, I tried the orecchiette and it did not disappoint. Rich, creamy, sweet tomato, and cheesy. How can you miss?

    Il Primo was the best Italian food we have ever tried! Friendliest servers and manager, romantic vibe for a date, and over the top experience. We will be back soon!
