My husband and I love it here! The menu is ever changing and always has a great mix of approachable and creative dishes. Portions are large and we always have leftovers. The cheesesteak is maybe the best I have ever had, and I don’t usually go for them! It is somehow perfect for both a casual meal or a fancy date night- truly the best of both worlds.
This is a little corner gem in Fishtown. You don't need to be vegan to love it as much as I do - it's just great FOOD. The vibe is casual and unassuming but cozy. The service is friendly and you can tell the servers share a passion for amazing food. Now...the food: it's amazing! There's a good mix of light dishes and heavier comfort food type dishes, and I'm always impressed by how inventive they are. The flavors are just perfect, and I've not had anything there I didn't love. You can tell they source quality seasonal ingredients - beautiful, colorful meals. If you haven't been, just go - you won't be disappointed.
Aura, flavor and service are always amazing! In the picture is the cauliflower pakora, potato croquettes, and primary burger
I love this restaurant. I know that every time I have dinner here that I’ll have delicious, thoughtfully and inventively created dishes. It is obvious that the chef cares deeply about ingredients, which are always fresh and seasonal, and that he is passionate about making great vegan food.The staff is wonderful and down to earth—friendly and attentive. The restaurant has a warm atmosphere that is a little quirky and fun. My most recent experience, we had the Barn Cat Potato Croquettes, Caesar Salad, Brussels Sprouts Bulgogi, and Pan Fried Gnocchi. Everything was incredible, but the clear standout from this meal was the Brussels Sprouts. The dish had all the flavor components of its meat-based cousin—the sweet, the savory, the garlicky, the pungent—all caramelized and partnered with creamy kimchi mashed potatoes. It was AMAZING. This place always keeps me coming back ❤️
One of the best vegan restaurants in Philly. If we're comparing this place to Vedge, Primary is more comfort food but they do it amazingly well ("cheese steak" and gnocchi). Don't miss out on this place!
Primary Plant Based - the steak was cut very nicely, the cheese made the sandwich cohesive, the bread was soft and crispy. It was so good, but I was also a bit *medicated* so might be exaggerating 9.5/10 This is actually my highest rated vegan cheesesteak. Yall killed it. Other than that we got these tandoori wings I think n they were bangin. The reuben was also delicious. Love this spot
I am so blessed and happy to have this place here in my neighborhood. I love Primary. They have a seasonal rotating menu and every dish is delicious and well portioned. I literally dream about the orecchiette I had in July. The service is always phenomenal as well.
