About this restaurant

Romantic
Neighborhood gem
Innovative

Primrose is a French-inspired wine bar from Sebastian Zutant and Lauren Winter. Born from years of dedication to good food, drink and hospitality. Each bottle, each plate, and each glass is here to represent all that we hold dear in the world of food and drink. The food, although from another country, is made with ingredients found near to us, without sacrificing flavor. The wine is in its most raw form, untouched, from the field to the cellar.

I love Primrose! I love the ambiance. I love the service. I love the vibe. I love the food....but I'm sad that the menu changed. I loved the 2 shareable entrees. The entrees now are pretty limited and not too exciting. First courses are great! Next time I will focus on them and not order an entree. But I love the restaurant and view it as one of my favorites!

Primrose is a cozy, friendly restaurant with delicious food, unusual cocktails, and professional service. The wine list is excellent, and the staff's recommendations are helpful. The ambiance is delightful and completed a festive evening of fine drinking and dining. If you can't get to Paris, come here!

Lots of people meant a lot more noise. The food was good as was the service. An enjoyable meal although a bit too noisy and rather dark.

We had a lovely dinner at Primrose. The wait staff is always very attentive and helpful. The food was delicious - this time we really enjoyed the vegetable and the ham tartines, also the sweet potato gnocchi was delish!

The food was phenomenal! The vegetable dishes were stunning. Order the radishes and mushrooms. Also, the server recommended an amazing wine, which paired well with the food. I would go back over and over again.

I’ve never had anything but wonderful food and service at Primrose. The roasted chicken to share is to die for. My out of town guest was delighted by the charm and beauty of the space to boot. Lovely, full stop.

Great ambiance and amazing service. I'd say Primrose is a combination between a neighborhood gem and a go-to for great French food and welcoming, comfortable ambiance.
