With dishes that lean heavily on Italian flavors but are not restricted by any rules of the cuisine, the food is unpretentious and delicious. A fireplace wrapped in white ceramic, an oversized salvaged communal table designed for side-by-side dining and rich leather banquets are just some of the design elements that make up Pammy’s charm.We're currently serving a Prix Fixe menu for all reservations.

It is the next morning after my visit to Prima and I am already wondering when I can get another visit on my calendar. Everything was phenomenal! Emily M was our server and she was the best! My roommate is gluten free and she shared all of the gluten free options and her personal favorites since she herself was gluten free! It was awesome- she was attentive and always checked in at exactly the right moment. I enjoyed a glass of Savvy B, a Cosmo, and one of the tiramisu espresso martinis and all of them were to die for (don't even get me started on the marscapone cream!!) We both got the Penne Alla Vodka and it was so good I dreamed about it. The chili crunch added the nicest bit of spice to the dish. I am legitimately itching to go back.

Absolutely incredible food, staff were friendly and attentive. We had a meatball appetizer, bread at the table. Entrees were chicken and prosciutto, and a chicken penne dish 🤌🤌🤌 seriously delicious. Capped it off with an after dinner cocktail.

Waverly was great! Food was amazing, especially the banana bread which we got to share for the table at brunch. Definitely recommend getting reservations for groups over two as this venue is very small and intimate.
