    We went to Primavista to enjoy their Wednesday and Thursday night prix fixe dinner. We were seated right by the window and got to watch a thunderstorm approach, unleash and then pass by. It was dramatic and an unexpected bonus. The food was quite good: Caesar salad (with anchovies - yum), a gnocchi and pesto entree for my husband and trout stuffed with crabmeat for me. The tiramisu was not the best ever, but overall it was a very good evening, with good food and good value for the money

    The view was spectacular although the overall restaurant is dated in many ways (older carpet and tables). The service was above average and the secondary wait staff was attentive and always had refills poured. The food was just average overall
