Primavista

“We chose this spot to celebrate Easter, and it exceeded every expectation. From the delicious bruschetta to the perfectly prepared salmon and indulgent chocolate martinis, every course was exceptional. Dessert was the perfect ending. The service was attentive and welcoming, and the view truly elevated the entire experience. Highly recommend!”

“Exceptional! We arrived about 10 minutes before our reservation time, were greeted so kindly, and immediately sat at what may be the best table in the restaurant, which was a wonderful surprise. The staff was incredible; knowledgeable, friendly, helpful, and provided lovely menu suggestions. Service was smooth, prompt and attentive. The restaurants atmosphere was also lovely. The interior is just gorgeous and it did not feel stuffy at all. Everyone was comfortable, smiling, laughing -and most importantly enjoying the gorgeous view- all amongst the dim mood lighting (there’s some gorgeous lamps in there) and smooth jazz playing. I was impressed to see that no matter where you are seated, you’re going to get a fantastic view of the city. Now, let’s get into the food: The printed flyer of the off menu specials for the night was a very stylish detail we enjoyed. We ordered the Bread Service, Caesar Salad, Veal Marsala and the Norwegian Salmon (one of the specials for the night). To drink we had Orange Gingers, which were delightful! Sweet, spicy, and sparkling! The Rosemary focaccia was warm and soft, and served with an aromatic and creamy garlic puree. The salads were gorgeous- crispy and cold and the amount of Parmesan was incredible. The veal was savory and wonderfully tender, and unexpectedly, the polenta was my husband’s favorite part of the whole dish! And I’ll be dreaming of the Broiled Salmon for a long time! The richness of the salmon (which was buttery soft) went so well with the tartness of the lemon and capers. The asparagus and artichokes were cooked perfectly. The presentation of everything was beautiful, from the drinks to the bread to the entrees. We are so impressed and will definitely be returning. Thank you for a fantastic evening, Primavista!”

“I had a work dinner for 12 at this spot because I had read great things about the restaurant. First off, the views are absolutely breathtaking. The restaurant quickly filled and got louder and louder so it was tough to have a larger group work conversation but our server Jillian was super attentive from the very beginning to the end. All of the food was incredible. I had the filet with this delightful parmesan polenta and asparagus, mushroom, arugula and reggiano and it was all cooked to perfection. For dessert, I ordered the Tuscan Brownie- the brownie was almost too big, or maybe it needed more caramel sea salt gelato or more white chocolate bark w/ toasted almonds. It was delish as well. I would highly recommend this spot and think it would probably be a great place to take a date! It’s certainly a perfect spot for gatherings and special events. Highly recommend!”

“What a view! With that said the food was good but not great. I had the nightly special and my pork was over cooked and just not very appetizing. My wife had the veal Marsala and It was fabulous. Aside from the misstep on my dish the service and view made up for it until dessert. The wheels fell off the bus here. The bread pudding was very eggy, like scrambled eggs with caramel sauce and the tiramisu was soaking wet and had citrus zest. Factor in the price for the desserts and the place gets a C grade. I was hoping for a great experience worthy of a revisit next time we were in the Cincinnati area. The bright spot of the night was Allison our server. She was excellent.”

“We used to come here every year for my wife's birthday. The bread is no longer free, the tiramisu keeps getting smaller and her salmon had salt and pepper..no other seasoning. The pasta had brown butter but the salmon..nothing. They used to have a yummy citrus salmon dish.”
