Il Primo is one of the longest-established Italian restaurants in Dublin's city centre. For over a decade, Il Primo has been serving rustic Italian food paired with some of the best wines that Tuscany has to offer. Most of its wines are imported directly to Il Primo and cannot be found anywhere else in Ireland. The restaurant is located in a romantic period house, which has been converted into a lively, homely bar area and a cosy and intimate dining room, located five minutes from St. Stephen's Green. The emphasis throughout Il Primo is on providing some of the finest wines from Tuscany with a range of simple and delicious Italian dishes in the heart of Dublin.

I've been about five times in the last two years, and it just keeps getting better. Service is friendly and attentive, but not too fussy, food is just exceptional - you can feel the love! Still haven't managed to get there for lunch though..One of the best nights out restaurant wise in the city... you may prefer the more traditonal atmosphere of upstairs, but a groundfloor table in where it's at for me...

As always, food and service were exceptional.

Overall quite impressed with the standards. Would have liked larger portions but as it was a lunch menu I can't give out too much. In general the group had chicken skewers, hake and canneloni (spelt wrong!) and all very positive. Chocolate cake for desert was also delicious. This was all washed down by a nice pinot grigio. Didn't see final bill but will def come back!

The usptairs is nice but you get the feeling everyone can hear every word you're saying. I ordered wine by the glass so didn't see the wine lst. The menu was pretty good and I had the chick pea bruschetta with ham and then the pasta with prawns. They were both pretty tasty, but I was expecting something better since I'd heard so much about the place. I'd rate the food at Nonna Valentino above I can't see if I would go back to Il Primo by choice if I was looking for good Italian. I suppose it's slightly cosier and less formal so maybe it's better for lunch. My friends ordered the risotto and loved it - smoked salmon and horse radish.

Only recently was I thinking that Dublin does not offer any decent Italian restaurants when a friend reccomended Il Primo. On viewing the menu I knew what I was in for. I tried the Duck tart for my starter and the spaghetti with prawns and spinach for my main. The food could not have been better and the service was superb. Can't wait to return.

Had a Christmas lunch with my loved one's cousins, aunts and uncles. I had the slowly cooked rabbit as a main and the strips of beef with rocket and parmesan as a starter. Some of us had tomato soup followed by sea bream. I went for my favourite finish, a cheese platter. It's a cosy place, a bit noisy, yet comfortable. The food was excellent and was enjoyed by all. A new Italian to add to my growing list of good restaurants in Dublin.

Am a regular lunch guest here - love the two-course special. We had a soup to start and pasta to follow and on this occasion, chocolate torte as a dessert. All excellent. We will return!
