The menu is rustic Italian cuisine that features pasta, salads, meat and fresh seafood items. Daily Specials, a Children’s Menu, House made Desserts, Carry-Out and Catering menus are also available. Our entire menu is “made in-house” from the highest quality ingredients, locally sourced or grown on our own family farm in Waconia, MN, whenever possible. The entire menu is offered for carry-out. We also provide full service catering and family-style take home meals. Carry-Out is usually ready within 10 to 20 minutes making Prima an excellent mid-week dinner option. Prima’s decor has soft, varnished/beeswax textured walls, high ceilings, deep-colored fabrics and Picasso-styled artwork set in antique frames. Prima offers table and chair or banquette seating and has an open kitchen. Sidewalk Cafe seating during the warmer months adds 20 seats. A wine list of reasonably-priced Italian, American and World wines is available by the glass or bottle. Bottled beer is also available
