Primo

Great choice for Italian food here in OshKosh. I will certainly be back soon. Good date spot with a fun bar. Has a dynamite buffet on some holidays so call ahead and check.

We went for brunch on a Sunday. The décor isn’t fancy but the service is good and the food was great. I had the seafood omelet. It was delicious!

We went for brunch which is only available on Sundays. There were plenty of breakfast options to choose from. A few people in our party had the fisherman’s omelette which they really enjoyed. I had the Denver omelette which was good. The prices were very reasonable at around $ 8 – 10. The service was really good even though the dining room was completely packed. The servers were hustling and did a great job always checking in and keeping our beverages filled. I definitely recommend this restaurant and we will be back to try their lunch or dinner menu.

Classic family restaurant… If you’re health conscious, I wouldn’t recommend this spot. I got the grilled veggie omelette with egg beaters. It was extremely greasy from the cheese, and it ended up causing a great digestive disturbance. I wasn’t the only one with this reaction.

Funny story, some girlfriends and I were excited for Italian… at another restaurant. We pulled up and it was gone. Not like closed, the building was no longer there and all that was left was a little leftover rubble in the middle of an empty parking lot.
Enter Primo, which did not disappoint.
It was a surprisingly large restaurant and we had about a 20 minute wait in the bar before being seated. After looking at the menu, I knew I had some hard choices ahead of me. I couldn’t decide on the specialty drinks, they all sounded great especially after a long week. Also, I had to go with a specialty salad to go with my entrée, they all sounded amazing but I opted for the caprese which did not disappoint. I went with a pasta with some type of sauce I cannot remember the name of. It came recommended and almost had a candied taste to it.
Yep, I’ll be back!

Very great wait staff, my boyfriend and I’s waitress was friendly and timely. Cheese curds were delicious and the Alfredo sauce with it was delicious. I had the salad with my seafood plater, very from a bag type salad. My boyfriends clam chowder soup was really great. Onto the entre, my platter had haddock which was good, perch which was mediocre and bland and jumbo shrimp which was good. However the whole reason I’m writing this is because of the walleye my boyfriend got. I even took a bite. Tasted of rubber and absolutely no flavor. If I could give a solid 2.5 stars I would. I expected a lot more with how busy this place always is every Friday.

A great experience at Primo!
Enter
I have driven past Primo a number of times and noticed that the parking lot is generally full on a Friday night so we thought we may not be able to get in. We noticed the immediate seating light was lit and were pleased to see it was accurate. We were immediately seated and didn’t have to wait long at all for our waitress to stop by
App
Ordering our drinks and an appetizer of cheese curds was very quickly done & made very quickly as well. The curds were awesome and we also received some complimentary breadsticks which went very well the alfredo (which was awesome) that came with the cheese curds. The curds also comes with marinara sauce if you care for that instead.
Dinner
The choice of what to get for dinner was very hard since they had so much that sounded good but we opted for the NY Strip steak and some sandwiches. The steak was perfectly cooked and very good. The sandwiches were also great with generous portions
Dessert
The lemon Italian cake is possibly now my favorite dessert at the local restaurants!
Service was also great throughout the experience and complimented the experience nicely. I highly recommend stopping in and giving it a try!

A bit surprised and very impressed. We got there at about 12:30, and found the service to be very pleasant and timely. The food was wonderful– far exceeded expectations — and the value was exceptional. This place looks very exclusive and pricy, but isn’t. Very nice dining experience.

Only having been here three times, I can say the food was pretty good. I’d definitely go again.

Stopped in with my boyfriend for a drink. Sat down at the bar on the service station side. Got a great look in to the glasses half filled with ice and forgotten server’s drinks, the soda machine in the kitchen, what seemed to be a manager or owner? and a colleague? on the patron side of the bar enjoying themselves, and was privy to the young bartender bitching about his job to aforementioned ‘colleague?’ («WHAT WAS THIS OTHER SERVER EVEN FUCKING THINKING» «IKNOWRIGHT?!») in front of us.
I have waited tables and tended bar for nearly half my life. At this point, the LAST THING I WANT TO DO WHEN I GO OUT IS TO HEAR PEOPLE BITCH ABOUT THEIR TABLES WAITING OR BAR TENDING OR THE OLDER BARTENDER NOT DOING ANYTHING WHILE THE YOUNGER BARTENDER IS ROLLING DICE WITH HIS FRIENDS.
And, another younger server just walks behind the bar to say «Hi» to his friends.
WHILE A CLEAR MANAGER OR OWNER OR SOME SUCH TYPE WITH BLONDE HAIR IS CLEARLY OKAY WITH THIS TYPE OF BEHAVIOR.
Do I get drinking on the job? Sure. Do I understand stress? You bet. Do I understand the shit that has to go on in somebody’s brain to state that it is okay to watch all of this happen? Go fuck yourself.
From a both a service and a server’s point of view: I get it. I do. I am just plain not going back. Ever. Disgusting.

I usually have lunch here about 2 to 3 times a month with colleagues. Often the place is busy during lunch hour. Service though is exceptional, as you want to be out right away due to a short lunch period. The waitresses usually know and serve us our drinks immediately. Bread and chips are standard. They have a salad bar with choices of soup, different pasta salads, a garden salad with various dressings and a lot of fruit. The lunch menu changes everyday, and I usually have the mounds of shrimp with asparagus. The servings are generous, and I usually end up eating half my entrée as the salad bar could be filling. My co-​workers usually order the fish and pasta, and have tried the variety.

The service was incredibly slow. The waitress (at an Italian restaurant!!!) did not understand when one of us asked for a salad with the «house dressing», which might be understandable if it was her first shift as a waitress ever, but it was not.
The food quality was quite poor. I’m almost always the one in the group who can find any kind of silver lining, but even I was unable to put a positive spin on the food. We stopped at the nearest gas station to throw away our leftover containers.
One person at our table had an accident and dropped her water glass onto her plate. It was loud enough that every other customer and all of the wait staff looked over… None of the staff made any attempt to offer any help to clean up the table… Not even an offer of extra napkins…
$ 75 for 3 people??? Absolutely not worth it.

Having been here a couple of times now, I think Primo is A-​OK. The portions are GIGANTIC (totally share-​able), but the dishes I’ve had haven’t been anything too special. I have a colleague who swears by their lasagna, so perhaps that’ll be my next item to try. The bread and salads are delicious — the pasta, I think, just varies by item. Dependable but nothing too outstanding. Service is great, and they manage large groups very well.

We came here with my boyfriend’s family to celebrate his birthday. I loved their crunchy breadsticks with olive oil and balsamic vinegar. They had a tasty salad bar (some of the things looked iffy– like the potato salad) but everything I got was good! I got a veggie sandwich that was supposed to have portobello mushrooms but I didn’t see any in there. It wasn’t the best sandwich. Everyone else seemed to enjoy their meal.
The service was excellent. They even brought out a little complementary (and delicious) cake for the birthday boy!

Excellent Friday fish fry. Service wasn’t great.

I just stopped in thinking this would be a pizza restaurant because Unilocal lists it as such. It is not a pizza restaurant. They only have 10″ personal pizzas.
