The food was great however the environment was overrun with high school and college hooligans not the environment I want to enjoy a meal with my children in

This is among one of the three great places in Amherst to get slices of pizza. I love their Wing Zing pizza. The staff are very nice. I suggest taking the pizza to go after 2:30am as the place tends to fill up with high school kids and drunk college students after dark.

I love stopping by here whenever I’m visiting my mom’s house. It’s everything you want in a neighborhood pizza place. The steak bombs are BOMB, the buffalo chicken pizza is flavorful & the garlic knots are definitely one of a kind. This isn’t somewhere I want to order a salad, because I don’t think they specialize in that. The owner is always friendly and always remembers me & after talking to him, I figured out that he worked his away up from behind the oven to owning the shop. Pretty cool story.

I swear my Primo, have had their pasta dishes, calzones, salads, and wraps. The lettuce they use is so fresh and the chicken is always so delicious. They put dressing on the side for wraps so I can always save my other half for later. They are always very friendly too and food is much better than their local competitors.

Primo’s has the best pizza in Amherst(this is coming from someone who grew up there too). I know everyone loves Antonio’s but the pizza at Primo’s is better and cheaper. You cant beat there happy hour either 2 – 4($ 2 slices) and after 10pm $ 1 slices. This place is completely underrated. Get the wing zing pizza its the best!

Apparently Primo doesn’t do $ 1 slices between 10 – 11 and have a sign posted up stating so. Now its $ 2 since the change two weeks ago according to the cashier girl. I then asked why they doubled the rate and she told me she didn’t know. I knew it was suspicious as to why there weren’t long lines a couple minutes before happy hour. No point to trek it out at night unless you crave their pizza. Still exceptionally good pizza but not really home of the dollar slice anymore.

Had a delicious antipasto salad today from Primo. Loaded with prosciutto, salami, ham, turkey, pepperoni and cheese over a crisp green salad. They were not at all skimpy on the meat and cheese and I had to put half the salad away for later! The salad came with three of their famous garlic and cheese knots which are worth going to the restaurant for all on their own! Priced at about $ 8.00, it is the best low-ish carb lunch in town! For their other options, the pizza is delicious, very crispy and generous on the toppings and you can get at least 6 different kinds by the slice every day– I really like the baked loaded potato and the meat-lovers! They also make really good calzones which are stuffed with cheese and their marinara sauce is great for dipping, not too thin, not too chunky with a nice home-made flavor. The staff is polite and they move the orders along quickly, especially cold items like salad and grinders, but its not really the kind of place you want to have a sit-down meal– its sort of grimy and bland. At least I can say with confidence, though, that they spend their time focusing on the food rather than the décor.

I recently moved to Amherst, and upon arriving was looking for a good slice of pizza. I looked at Unilocal reviews and found this came highly recommended, and I wasn’t disappointed. Huge slices the size of your head with a great thin crust taste, as well as fast service. Definitely would recommend to anyone visiting or living in the Amherst area to check out.

I like to go here when I need a quick bite. It’s not that expensive and the food is alright. That’s how I feel about many of the places in Amherst;the food is alright. What makes Primo’s so desirable is the happy hour slices at 10pm. They start selling all their slices for $ 1 and the line’s out the door if you don’t get there by 9:55pm. I’m serious, get there early! The food’s not bad. Like I said, it’s alright. You might not complain, but you’re also not going to go there for a nice sit-down meal. It’s just not that kind of spot. I would never bring my parents really all comes down to what you’re trying to get out of your meal. If some buddies come up to visit… sure we may pick up a slice or two. And during the wait we can just walk over the dB Mart at pick up some good chasers and mixers.

I usually get the wing zing slices during happy hour, amazing. I got a chicken Alfredo pasta last night and it was great for its price. For $ 10.70ish with delivery, I got the alfredo and it came with 4 garlic knots and a side salad. Usually I get Brunos for the same price but without the added sides. The alfredo is good. Great for slices of pizza: HAPPYHOUR(mon-fri, 2−4PM, 10−11PM) they don’t deliver slices at happy hour prices. my favorites are bbq chicken and the wing zing

Happy Hour: Place is known for the $ 1 pizza after 10pm. Any pizza that is there is $ 1! Thats a pretty cool deal for a college student. Besides happy hour, I tried their other stuff like cheesesteak sub, its pretty delicious. I think this place is underrated a bit because its off the main road.

Two things: ONE, I can’t believe this place has not had a review since April of 2010! TWO, I am SOMAD that I did not snap pictures of what I had from Primo’s to share the awesomeness that you all need to get with ASAP. This place is a hidden gem in the sense that everyone overlooks this place because of all the supposedly«better» food spots that Amherst offers. For a touch of home cooked food mixed with money value plates, Primo Pizzeria Too is the place to order from! The other night my boyfriend and I ordered pasta from here, me getting the Primo Alfredo Specialty(spicy alfredo sauce, sausage, chicken, salami, red peppers and broccoli all tossed together with linguini pasta) and my boyfriend got the Primo Choy Suey(ziti, ground beef, marinara sauce, romano cheese). When the guy took our order he made a mistake on the Chop Suey and it got delivered to us with tuna added in. We quickly called back after realizing this, and they were so nice to not only make us another one fast and deliver it to us, but allowed us to keep the mistake! I would give you another five stars Primo for having nice staff! The pasta, weighing probably about THREEPOUNDSEACH, also comes with a side salad with the dressing of your choice!(!) and four garlic knots baked to delicious garlicky perfection! PRIMOSISNOJOKE! If you’re ever in Amherst and you need a place to eat and can’t decide because of all the other bright lights from the other restaurants in town that don’t offer the quality like PRIMO’s, I AMTELLINGYOU, GOSTRAIGHTTOPRIMO’S!

This place is UNBELIEVABLY good!!! Best pizza & sub shop known to man. My personal favorites include: wing zing pizza, salad pizza, turkey Sub with the works, any alfredo dish, veggie burger with pesto, steak & cheese & the grilled chicken salad. I went to UMASS for 5 years and definately ate here more than any other place in town. The owner Alfie is the man & the rest of the staff are very nice. Take my word & give this place a try.

I ordered lunch the other day and it was the best steak and cheese grinder I’ve had in a while. The steak is thinly sliced rib-eye grilled to perfection on a toasted roll with melted cheese, sauteed mushrooms, lettuce and tomato. With every bite you get a little of everything! I added a bag of my now favorite, Deep River potato chips and a diet Dr. Pepper(how ironic) to round out the meal. I ordered the sandwich while I was on the road and it was ready when I got there, no time wasted standing around and waiting. I’ve tried the steak and cheese before but I think with the veggies is the best taste configuration.
