  • We came home to visit family and came here for a late dinner. We were not disappointed at all! Wow! Having grown up in Fort Smith it feels great coming home to another great restaurant in town. The food was sooo good. The oil / balsamic with garlic confit was offff the charts with the bread basket!!!!! The drinks were great and tasty. Loved the atmosphere and the vibe. Most of all, Vincent was our server and he was absolutely the best. He walked us through every part of the menu. Found out what our likes are and catered to us in such a loving and friendly way. He’s got a great story plus his charm draws you in. He brought the boys out complimentary cheese cake and kept delighting us in every way. Thank you Vincent. Thank you Prima Italia. We will be coming back. - Spence

  • This was such a wonderful dinner! Vincent went above and beyond to work around my allergies and made our dining experience even better. Pasta was handmade in-house, drinks were fantastic, and the atmosphere was so cozy and elevated at the same time. We drive through Fort Smith every single Thanksgiving and will be making this a permanent stop! Thank you guys again for such a great evening after a 10+ hour drive!

  • Wonderful experience! Reservations made for 730pm. Table was not empty when we arrived, however the staff made it happen so we didn’t have to wait. We(4 of us) were given a large private room. We got a drink comped due to this. Seth and Hayden took great care of us! The food was amazing and 5 star rating on flavor. We would all recommend for anyone to come here! The crab cake appetizer was beyond delicious and different from ever other restaurant. 5 stars all the way

  • We are here for The Dapper Wrench’s Christmas party. Robert was fabulous. Especially his dance moves. I had Pollo AllanValdostana and it was lovely. Then. I had Limoncello. To die for. Even the husband had some and he complains about everything. But he loved this!! Truly wonderful experience. Thank you Robert. Thank you Chef Joshua. And thank you to the entire staff. The strings were lovely. We so enjoyed the evening. Had I remembered a photo earlier on I would have shared more but when I thought about it this was all that was left. LOL

  • It's expensive, but worth it! The host was super kind and helpful. The bartenders were a hoot! The place was packed. The food and drinks were fabulous. Definitely make a reservation. Definitely be ready to spend that dinero. Dress decent, otherwise you'll feel underdressed.

  • I sat at the bar wanting to order a quick to go meal, but instead I was greated by Nick the bartender and he instantly made me feel that it was okay to be down dressed and enjoyed my meal there. I had the lasagna it tasted great and the meatball dish for an appetizer . It was all very great but I do wish the lasagna was more filling as I did leave a tad bit hungry. Nonetheless my experience was great. Would definitely come again but have a different dish.

  • This was our first time dining at Prima Italia and it was outstanding in every way! From the moment we arrived, our server Vincent was exceptional! He was friendly, knowledgeable and professional and even asked if we had dietary restrictions. The service here is top shelf! There was a great jazz band playing and comfy atmosphere. The food was out of this world. I cannot say enough about the chef here! Outstanding! Thank you, Vincent, we'll be back!
