Prima Donnas

Head down Red Lodge Road and you'll find yourself in a spot that feels properly established—the kind of place locals have been going to for years because the food actually delivers. Prima Donnas does straightforward Italian right: fresh pasta that you can taste has been made that morning, sauces that taste like someone's nonna spent time on them, not shortcuts. It's unpretentious without being cheap, the sort of restaurant where you can rock up in jeans or dress it up, and either way you'll fit in. The room has that warm, lived-in feeling that comes from years of regulars bringing their mates, families celebrating birthdays, dates turning into anniversaries.
