We had a great time at Prime 1024. We had the special Caprese salad and the fried calamari for starters. They were wonderful. My hubby had Chicken Diavolo and I enjoyed a great Pappaedelli a la Ragú. Desserts were great as well. The service is really attentive and friendly. Our server, Edison and his helping coworker David, were really efficient and kind, and took great care of us. Prime 2024 never disappoints. We go there every time we want to celebrate a special occasion. We will be back!

The fresh fried mozzarella was mouth watering. The best we've ever had anywhere. Portions are substantial, but delicious. Waiters are superb. Watching the over-sized desserts go by is very tempting and entertaining. A must stop every year when we are in town.
