Great wine paired with excellent food. Any questions?
Prima is a restaurant with a wine shop attached to it. Or is it a wine shop that happens to serve food. Either way, this is a great destination restaurant in the burb metropolis of Walnut Creek.
The wine list is insane – something like 1600 different selections of every kind and source of wine. Unless you are extremely knowledgeable about wine, just ask your server for recommendations.
The food is excellent – quality ingredients, good preparation and presentation – and just plain yummy.
The ahi tuna appetizer is wonderful. They do an surprisingly good job with meats (the beef I’ve had there has been great). I’d also recommend the gnoochi.
Of course, if you have a full dinner for 2 (appetizer or salad, pasta, main course, split a dessert) and wine, you will be out $200 or more. But you get what you pay for.
