There are just a few neighborhoods in San Francisco where dining al fresco can be a guaranteed pleasure. The South of Market area provides some of the most reliable odds for a sunny, if not balmy, experience. Just as the restaurant's name… Read Full Editorial

Primo Patio Cafe is a good lunch spot by erica o via Insider Pages on 11/3/2009

Primo Patio is a good little lunch spot near the ballpark. I have tried the snapper sandwich twice and was very happy. The portion was large for the price and the fish seemed be pretty fresh. But, the real standout is the sauce. I'm not…

Used to be a favorite... by Tone Def . via Insider Pages on 11/20/2008

If I could give it no stars I would. Let me start the review by letting you all know that I've been going to Primo for years with my friends and co-workers. To the point where we recognized who I believe is the owner (Red-headed lady…

Overall Great Experience! by ksjjj via Citysearch on 9/21/2008

I took the worthy journey to Primo Patio and enjoyed a wonderful exotic lunch! The sandwiches are filling and delicious; their ingredients are fresh and the outdoor patio transforms the "everyday city experience" to a "colorful…

Amazing Jerk Chicken by Mel C via Insider Pages on 5/30/2008

This is a fantastic place to eat at before heading over to watch the Giants play at AT&T Park. The jerk chicken is sooo good - especially with their amazing sauce! I've also tried a few of their appetizers - fried calamari, sweet potato…

Quite an experience! by Ro G via Insider Pages on 5/2/2008

Primo Patio is a super cool little joint! You wouldn't think it's much of a restaurant but just walk thru the narrow corridor, pass the kitchen and you step into a Jamaican patio! The food is plentiful. I especially enjoy the calamari…

best calamari by 8r8amis via Citysearch on 1/17/2008

great food and u gotta love the patio out back on a nice sunny day. I'll definitely be back hopefully for the breakfast.

Great food, great ambience, great service by jel76 via Citysearch on 8/26/2007

This place is the bomb! The food was DELICIOUS and the service was very friendly. The Jerked Chicken served with cumin rice and black beans was really good and the seasoning is unique and flavorful. And the fried plantains- soooo good. …

Hidden Treasure in South Beach/SOMA! by dominick22 via Citysearch on 5/29/2007

I've been eating at Primo Patio Cafe now for about 2 years. The atmosphere is fun and relaxed and the service is helpful and friendly. However, the main reason I continue going back is that the food is absolutely phenomenal! Group that…

BEST CHICKEN!!! and more ... by traycyn2002 via Citysearch on 5/26/2007

Primo Patio is a find for increditble food at reasonable prices. The owners are personable, greet you by name and sincerely care about your overall experience. Snapper, chicken, steaks, pitas and the SAUCE - are all homemade and…

Primo Dining Near the Ball Park by jhudy via Citysearch on 5/26/2007

An amazing find near the ball park. The Carribean style food is delicious, generous, and reasonably priced. The wait staff is friendly and efficient and the owners work hard to make sure you enjoy your visit. I couldn't recommend it…

so bad! by psignus via Citysearch on 12/20/2006

yuck, phooey, eew. \r could anything be worse then sweet meat, cold fries, and thousand island dressing and salsa on everything? i haven't found it. i ordered lunch and had to get a second one from somewhere else cause it was so bad.

Great food at Primo Patio by Jen H. via Judy's Book on 9/14/2006

Primo Patio has been one of my favorite little restaurants in South Beach. It's a cozy neighborhood joint that looks like a hole in the wall from the front but actually opens up to a nice size patio in the back. They serve great…

unclean, eat at your own risk by tialombardia via Citysearch on 6/16/2006

While I thought I was getting a great deal with the lamb pita I ordered with the paprika fries...the real bargain came later when I was violently sick to my stomach. Not sure if it was the unchilled sauce on a hot day or something else but…

Great setting and food! by E. M. via Judy's Book on 6/11/2006

When my DH used to work at 2nd and Brannan (and we lived at Bayside) we would meet for lunch at Primo Patio. They have great jerk chicken and a nice outside seating area like you are visiting a friend for lunch in their backyard. I love it!

Don't be a Jerk... by Avery G. via Judy's Book on 4/29/2006

Jerk Chicken? Check. Large glasses of lemonade with free refills? Check. Sort of nasty tasting limp fries that are prone to breaking apart at just the right time to ensure that some of their spiced mayo falls on my shirt to permanently…

Mediocre place near The Beacon (SOMA) by rxslider via Citysearch on 12/2/2005

Not a place to go for a nice sit-down dinner, but it is a place to go for a quick bite to eat. The food isn't fantastic, but it is not horrible either. The Jerk Chicken is about the best on the menu. The beef items were fairly tough.…

Best cheap eats in SoMa by lenvm via Citysearch on 10/8/2005

The Primo Patio is the most wonderfully low-key place in SF. You hardly notice it when you pass by, but when you walk past the kitchen you emerge into a nice Biergarten-style atmosphere in the back. The main waitress here is so WONDERFUL…

Solid, satisfying Caribbean food served in an enclosed patio creates charm in SoMa. by Contributor via Citysearch on 5/3/2005

In Short
The tiny storefront hides a sheltered, heated patio that awaits diners in the back of this urban oasis. Outside, colorful table settings and sun umbrellas fill up quickly during brunch hours. Island music completes the…

Excellent fries with dipping sauce best in town by dr_deadly via Citysearch on 4/19/2005

rotating specials (espacially the fish) are excellent. top 3 must try's are : 1. jerk chicken sandwich with french fries (those dipping sauce and fries are soo good). 2. caribbean style lamb in plate or as a sandwich/pita. 3. savory black…

Completely awesome! by sacrilicious13 via Citysearch on 5/28/2004

Primo Patio: excellent food, good menu variety. And everything's delicious, from the sublime grilled snapper sandwich and decadent snaps and fries to a tasty jerk chicken to pita wraps and salads, it's all there and it's all good. The…
