Prima Bistro

I didn't write a review the first time here as it was great. The second visit was better. Kathy was our server and she did a fantastic job taking care of us. The estav also had a team of folks that ensured our drinks were refilled and tables busses frequently. My all time favorite items were the Chicken Liver Mousse, which had a nice layer of fat sitting on top of the jar; Penn Cove Mussels with Fries. The mussels came out steaming hot, but the flavor was smooth and the texture was soft. The fries were just the right portion and salted lightly. The sweetbread entree was done right. It's hard to cook this dish as I've seen plenty of restaurants create a disaster. However, Prima Bistro served it up sweet, tender and delicious. Thanks for another great meal and service!

If you're a local islander, you know this place. If you're a city dwelling-ferry hopping weekender, you must get to know this place. Prima Bistro is not French fine dining but more like French-Pacific Northwest fusion cuisine. Located in the ❤ of Langley on Whidbey Island, the restaurant is a flight up the stairs to the second floor that has an outdoor balcony for ocean view seating and a deep dining room. The clams & chorizo entree was delicious & a generous portion. However, the well seasoned & slightly spicy chorizo overwhelmed the clams. The juice is excellent for bread dipping. The French onion soup was unique and not the typical standard one would expect but hearty & delicious nonetheless. The croque monsieur had heft with succulent ham with subtle but tasty dijon flavor. The calamari fritti was prepared just right and the harissa rouille was prima! Last time I visited was 11 years ago. So glad this place is still here. The food is still excellent. The waitstaff is professional, courteous, attentive & friendly. The interior has a theatre vibe and the ocean view is so NW. Support your local small businesses & independent restaurants 👍

I would literally drink their blue cheese aioli with a straw. Absolutely drool-worthy. We enjoyed their super fun mixed drinks and amazing views! Service was excellent. The homemade pickles were spicy! And they accommodated Gluten Free!!

This french restaurant is a hidden treasure in Whidbey island. We had a wait time of about 45 mins on Sunday evening. The staff was so friendly and helpful. We ordered clamps, muscles and veggies, wine and desserts. The clamps were perfectly cooked with tomatoes,herbs and pork, the muscles were the best too, cooked with celery, garlic, onions. The wine tasted so well with the food. The desserts are a must try! The hazelnut chocolate moose was a perfect end to our delicious dinner. Definitely going to this place again.
