      We stopped for lunch while traveling. It was around 12:30, and the restaurant was busy, but we were able to find a seat without too much trouble. The line to order moved quickly. Much to my older son's delight, Primo serves Pepsi. My husband got the chicken fried steak. It was served with brown gravy, which we aren't used to (we expected cream gravy), but he said it was good. The fried okra he got with it was crispy and fresh. My older son got the large chicken finger basket. It came with eight huge strips, and they were hot out of the fryer! My younger son got the chicken sandwich with mac and cheese, and the sandwich didn't skimp on chicken or toppings. I took advantage of all-day breakfast and ordered the Scrambler with sausage, grits, and a biscuit. Delicious! The grits were creamy and tasted like they maybe had a slight hint of jalapeño? All I know is, mine was dang skippy good.

      Don't miss the bake shop side of Primo's! We grabbed cookies on the way out. The pecan crunch cookies were a perfect finish to the meal.

      If we're rolling on I-55 in the future, we'll go off the beaten path a bit and head to Primo's again!

      Stopped by Primos after a doctors appointment for a quick breakfast. Broke from my norm and ordered the egg scrambler with toast and hashbrowns.

      This Primos has the BEST buttered toast! Always! The hashbrowns, from first glance, looked overcooked but they were ok. Didn't taste burned. I didn't care for the scrambler too much. The eggs were a little too soft for me but nothing for me to complain about.

      I also got a piece of lemon pie to go for later. Some of the best lemon icebox pie around!

      The eggs are from a carton! You have to ask for shell eggs. I ordered a shelled egg vegetable omelette that came raw runny with huge rough cut veggies. Everything was bland with no taste. The fried chicken was hard and dry. The macaroni and cheese was tasteless and mushy. The pancake was Burt and crunchy. I talked to the manager who shouldn't be managing. I talked to the cook who doesn't care and blames everything on "It's what we've been doing for 40 years."
      Three other tables heard our complaints and started complaining about their overcooked, dry and bland food.
      They paid but left it all on their tables. I ran after them to say "complain" The gentleman said we just won't be back. Neither will we!
      Stop paying for and eating NASTY food!
      They don't care!

      No pancakes, 1 piece sausage for 2.50, hashbrowns burnt, cinnamon roll cold and dry, orange juice frozen. This restaurant has gone downhill, big time. Such an ashame. Biscuit and chicken just ok, hashbrowns hardly cooked. This is a joke

      The customer service was great! The food was pretty yummy, as well. There was a couple flies flying around that were a little menacing.

      Went to order breakfast and proceeded to get skipped by 2 different families in front of the manager on scene. While the manager walked away, my wife informed me that she was told she couldn't sit and that it was in plain English that no one could sit. As she stated she had a medical condition, he proceeded to tell my daughter obviously mom can't read and walked away and went to other tables complaining about how she is. It was so bad a random group told my wife how sorry they were. Will not go back until this place has managers that actually know how to talk to people
