"Bar Primi serves decent Italian food that is easy enough to like, and for a number of people in a number of situations, this restaurant will be pretty much perfect. If you’re catching a train at Penn Station directly across the street, catching a game at Madison Square Garden, or catching up with coworkers, this is a totally solid destination for pasta and cute cocktails. Expect to see as many business-casual Patagonia vests crowding the bar as you do Rangers jerseys, and—if the weather’s nice—a crowd gathered on the big outdoor patio. (If it’s a game day, the attentive, efficient servers may even ask if you have tickets when you arrive, to ensure they get you fed and out in time.)" - bryan kim, willa moore, kenny yang, neha talreja, molly fitzpatrick
