Prima Bistro

“MUST VISIT: Prima Bistro is a must visit when visiting Whidbey Island. The staff are kind and professional, the atmosphere/view is stunning, and the food is absolutely delicious. While visiting the island, I made it a point to return to Prima Bistro a few times. I personally loved their 🫜 Beet Salad & 🐌 Escargot. I could’ve eaten my weight in both! The salad has these lovely glazed walnuts that elevate the salad. And the Escargot are served in a herb and what tasted like garlic butter. And while I don’t typically eat, escargot, prima bistro has turned me onto them now/made me a fan!”

“I got the Farmer's Plate, and my companions got the croque madame, croque monsieur, and risotto. Everything was fine but the risotto was a very small portion for an entree. The croques came with decent size side salads of greens. The farmer plate had some really fun pickles zesty, blue cheese, mushrooms, brie, grapes, mustard, 2 meats, butter, crackers, and thick baguette slices. I really enjoyed the pickles! The meats didn't have a ton of flavor. The baguette was great but I wish it was cut thinner.”

“I highly recommend the burger combo; it's delicious. The meat skewers are also good. I don't recommend the fried oyster, it's not good value for money and doesn't taste good.”

“Had a good dinner here. I know there is inflation and everything but I felt the amount of bread we got for 7 dollars was really ridiculous. Like in the past you would get complimentary bread and sure maybe that's dead these days but does this look like 7 dollars of bread to you? Everything else was fine. The food was good and would try again but maybe sneak in bread in my pocket? Idk.”

“Restaurant service could use an over haul! The Prima Bistro does have good out door seating. The wait for service was long while staff seemed to be exhausted already from the evening! My husband’s old fashion came with a well (very low grade), he didn’t get asked what type of bourbon he wanted & his glass was cracked & chipped in multiple places, my mocktail was delivered in the can (a nice touch if I was offered to had it poured). Staff was either hustling around or parked in the back in a group chatting away. In the bathroom, all trash bins were overflowing. We visit this restaurant a few times a year this year will probably be the last. Our experience should’ve been a lot better since it is one of the top restaurants in the Langley. Includes an ok wine selection. I would have used hand rail in the stall if there was one.”
