PrimoHoagies

PrimoHoagies just opened up in Wilmington, North Carolina, and being a big fan of good food, I had to check it out. The place looked nice with its new building and tables, plus there were some special chairs outside that reminded me of where I’m from in Baltimore. The seating is very limited though. The restaurant comes from Philly, Pennsylvania, which is famous for Philly cheesesteaks, something I really like. So, I ordered one.

At first glance, the cheesesteak looked great with all the usual stuff – tasty beef, mayo, onions, and cheese. But the roll it came on was a bit harder than what I’m used to. Some sesame seeds on top made it different too. Maybe it’s just me, but I prefer softer rolls for my cheesesteaks.

The price was around $14 and more, which felt okay considering what you get. It’s cool to have another place for cheesesteaks in town. Next time, I’ll try different sandwiches they have. Overall, I totally suggest this place and I’d say it’s like a 4 out of 5 stars.

I have to say, the staff is really nice. It was my first time here and the young man that took my order was very patient and helpful. I ordered two primo sized sandwiches, a turkey and a Philly cheesesteak. The bread is really good and you get a decent amount of food, all in all a pretty solid sandwich. It's definitely on the pricey side, $30 for 2, but my wife and I each ate half for lunch and had the rest later so you can get 2 meals out of the primo size, I guess that's pretty good! They offer a good variety of options so I will be back to try some more.

Super friendly people here, and really helpful. Not 'great' for vegetarians, but we grabbed a cheese and Diablo. These were so so good. As a European, I miss good bread, but the bread here is the best. Even though the vegetarian options are limited I would definitely go again.
