Prego in ponsonby is always super busy and we were quite lucky to get a table without a reservation. I always enjoy coming to Prego as they make the best fresh bruschetta, perfectly topped with little cherry tomatoes, yum!We ordered the market fish, pumpkin soup and a pasta to share. Which was perfect for three people, the dishes are well presented, but we found the pasta to be quite heavy on oils. Overall the restaurant has a nice atmosphere for dates and the service is always great!
I was sceptical about Prego. I heard so much hype that I wasnt too sure why. But I can now understand why! The staff at Prego are lovely and accomodating, helping you choose the right meal. And the food is delicious and the sauces used in the pasta are nice and creamy! I was worried we hadnt ordered enough food but we left feeling happily full. Highly recommend!
Looking for authentic Italian? This is the place! Would definitely say their pasta is better than the pizza even though both were really good. The pizza had a good base but the prosciutto was a bit hard to chew apart. The pasta was amazing !! The seafood linguine was it was fresh with lovely texture the light sauce was the perfect compliment.The steak was slightly overcooked but was still very tasty! The polenta was an absolute gem!Service was alright and the atmosphere was a bit dark but their outdoor area is nice and breezy especially in the hot summer!Food 8.5/10Ambience 6.5/10Service 7/10Price 7/10
We came early to grab a spot and it was a good thing we did. The restaurant became busy very fast as the night arrived. The food is top notch quality with lovely flavours. We had one pizza with two pasta dishes. The pasta literally melted in the mouth. I had relatives overseas with me and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Service was fantastic they explained the food to us in detail and made great recommendations. Normally we skip desserts at restaurants but we couldnt do that here. The desserts were a wonderful end to a fantastic meal.
Came by for dinner. We didn’t book but it wasn’t too full since we were able to get a table outside. Really interesting items on the menu which made it hard to choose.We picked a bottle of the Saracco Muscato d’asti to share since we both liked muscatos. Best choice ever. One of the best mucatos I’ve had and it is so easy to drink. Nice flavour and mouth feel with the light bubbles. They served it by the half bottle (375ml).We started with the guanciale and the Spaghetti al Grancho (Squid Ink spaghetti with crab). That was the only pasta that came as dinner sized and thought the portion wasn’t that big. It was however very delicious. The al dente pasta and the crab meat was very moreish. Had the Agnello as a main. The lamb was cooked nicely and the zucchini flower was light and crispy. Also tried the Cervo but found the sauce a bit too sour. Had the chocolate marquis for dessert and that was delicious. The sticky date pudding was also nice.Really good food and service which is reflected in the price.
Heard really great things about this Italian but felt it was so sub par! A bit of a snobby joint but thats not due to the staff, just the other diners. Ordered the seafood pasta and had to pack some salt on there, the others seemed to really enjoy it though. Took a while for everything to arrive.
Delicious Italian food and a nice wine list. Went here with a friend of mine and we shared some mains. Our stake was cooked perfectly and melted in the mouth. The Cloudy Bay cab sav was also beautifully floral and melony, loved it. Unfortunately I didnt take any photos, but good reason to come back!
