Where Flavor Meets Family on Water Street

An 8,500-square-foot celebration of Italian-American comfort, located on Water Street in Fall River, Massachusetts—just steps away from the Narrows Center for the Arts. At Primo on Water Street, we believe hospitality starts with heart—and ours beats strongest in the cozy charm of mismatched chairs, antique plates, and the kind of warm welcome that feels like Sunday dinner at Nonna’s.

Whether you’re sinking into a plush booth in Nonna’s Lounge, dining beneath our original steel-beamed ceilings in our eclectic main room, or watching future bartenders train behind glass doors in our in-house Bartending School, every corner of Primo is designed to immerse you in a true, real-world hospitality experience.

Our menu is a love letter to tradition, crafted with locally sourced ingredients and bold, authentic flavors that honor Italian roots with American flair. By day and early evening, we’re the perfect stop for pre-show dinners and post-concert cocktails before or after a night at the Narrows. On weekends, Primo comes alive with nightlife—featuring DJs, live energy, cocktails, and a vibrant late-night atmosphere that keeps the celebration going well after dinner.

From the first bite to the last sip, Primo serves comfort, character, and community—where great food, great music, and great company meet, right in the heart of Water Street.
