PRIM'S ITALIAN — Restaurant in Balikpapan

Prim’s has been my go-to pizza place in town ever since I discovered them about two years ago, but this was my first time dining in. The moment you step in, it feels like you're visiting your Nonna’s house—cozy, private, and warm. Although the space is compact, it’s spacious enough for small groups. They offer a dining window of one and a half hours, which is plenty of time to catch up with friends or get to know your first date 😂. The food is superbly well-made with generous portions, packed with flavors and rich herbs (of course, it’s Italian). It's worth every penny; my friend and I shared everything and still had leftovers to take home. The owners and staff are lovely, approaching our table a few times to ensure we were satisfied. I even had a nice conversation with the owner, who shared fun facts about Italian cuisine and the restaurant's history. Her passion and dedication showed in the way she talked about their food. They deliver not just scrumptious meals but also a memorable experience. Truly a gem...

Additionally, it's worth noting that The Prim’s operates by reservation only. During our chat with one of the employees or possibly the owner, we learned that this policy helps prevent food waste. It's a thoughtful approach that benefits both the environment and their business.

This is just one more reason why we love everything about The Prim’s...

If you decide to eat at Prim's Italian, you will not regret it. They sell delicious Italian food. The last time I went there, I tried the vegan pizza, Wagyu steak, and Margherita pizza. I recommend eating the Wagyu steak and vegan pizza. They use very good ingredients, making the steak tender and the pizza dough super chewy. The steak also comes with a side of crispy potato chips. Besides that, the waiters were very welcoming and friendly. The restaurant's appearance is simple, but clean. I personally would love to...
