Prima Cucina Italiana

Amazing anniversary meal at this establishment!! Our waiter Neil, was extremely attentive, detail oriented on the featured dinners, and overall made our anniversary special. Outstanding appetizers and dinners. We will definitely be back!

Are you kidding me? This is a fantastic place in my home town, Youngstown. It’s a must go to for sure. #supportlocalbusiness

This calamari is fantastic. Not too bad with a nice Cabernet also.

What a great place. Had seafood pasta with a great glass of Cabernet. The best Old Fashion around. The Caprese salad was AWESOME!!!

We had a very nice time at Prima Cucina. Our server, I think Fredirico, (sorry if the spelling is wrong) was friendly and knowledgeable. And the service was prompt as well.
We ate octopus for the appetizer, a braised pork pasta for dinner, as well as the half chicken. All of it was really good. Octopus was tender, pasta had the right amount of meat and sauce, and the chicken had a perfect crisp to it! Would definitely return,

Absolutely fantastic! My first time here and the tomahawk steak was incredible. Tender and perfectly cooked. The service was great, Adam & Neil were very helpful on assisting with cocktail choices. We will definitely be back!

Absolutely to die for...Best dishes I've had anywhere the meatballs and polenta as well as the lamb lollipops for apps was amazing will never forget those tastes

I had a great experience and the tomahawk steak was cooked perfectly and super delicious 😋 Josh is a great cook and he takes pride in the food he cooks! Come and enjoy the atmosphere and the delicious food at Prima downtown Youngstown

Lovely real Italian food, perfectly presented and still American size portions, we always take some home!
#1, if you haven't been there yet, you are really missing out!

Atmosphere, Food and staff were all excellent! We can’t wait to go back.

Amazing service! Phenomenal food ! Wonderful Manhattans!
We thoroughly enjoyed our dinners and service by Nickola. Highly recommend

I love the Italian food in Youngstown. I’m my opinion it is better than Cleveland. Prima Italian kicks it up a notch in the valley. Probably the best grilled octopus I have ever had, and the rest of the courses did not disappoint. Service was also phenomenal. It was like all the workers in the restaurant were PH.D. Students who were smart, polite, and hard working!

I highly recommend this restaurant.

There's nothing I can say that will do justice to a restaurant that cares about their food and guests like Prima does. The decor and atmosphere is the perfect balance for a date that you bring home to your parents. Classy and comfortable. The food is to die for. I live in Pittsburgh and the drive out here is more than worth it for food you won't find in the steel city. The drinks and appetizers, the entrees and recommended wine, literally everything about this place makes you feel at home like your family dinner. I will be back I can't imagine feeling the same anywhere else.

Food was phenomenal from appetizers lambs sticks pasta salad. The texture and taste was fulfilling. Our waiter Nikola was beyond attentive enjoy the atmosphere

We went to prima for the first time tonight. Tried multiple different items.
Lamb chop appetizer
Fried artichokes, and the meatballs.
All 3 apps were full of flavor.

We ordered pasta for our young kids which ate the entire plates.(rarely happens for our kids).

Mom got chicken Milanese
Dad got chicken parm

We loved everything, awesome atmosphere for a night out with great service and food.

Birthday for Stef tonight. We had the lamb pops and stuffed dates for appetizers, and she got pasta, and I had chicken. The Italian names for our food were so elegant, and our server was straight from Italy. If you are looking to escape Youngstown and feel like you're visiting Italy, this is the place to visit. You will impress whoever you take to this gem 💎 in Youngstown.

Delicious authentic Italian food! Large portions.

What a wonderful dining experience. The food was fabulous.

Highly recommend this place. Our table had some outstanding service and high quality meals.
They even exchanged our flatware for fresh ones between courses. I had the pollo alla mattone which had super crispy skin and a moist inside. Very beautiful and flavorful dish with capers, garlic and rosemary adorned on top.

Super happy with our experience and I am excited to come back for more.

Best polenta in town! Wonderful staff, and some of the best pasta I’ve ever had. It’s worth it!

Absolutely great! Our server was very knowledgeable in being able to reccomend a bottle of wine for us. The food is some of the best Italian food I've had in the area. When you stop in expect high end service.

Welcoming upscale traditional Italian cuisine. One of the best places in the area for real Italian food as opposed to the Italian American blend that a lot of places try to pawn off on you. Be prepared to take your time and enjoy course after course as is traditional. Service is always superb.
