Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Prego Restaurant consistently delivers a "great experience" with exceptional service, especially from servers like Kelsey and Allen. The ambiance is "quiet, lovely," and reminiscent of New York City dining. While some dishes like Lobster Ravioli and Sea Bass shine, prices are on the higher side. Overall, a "wonderful dining" spot for special occasions.

    We eat out regularly and hadn't been to Prego in quite a while. We understand the cost of food needs to be taken into consideration for restaurants to make their overhead, however, their prices for what you get are over the top plus a very limited menu. I ordered the Lobster Ravioli - 6 regular-sized ravioli for $30 and I couldn't see or taste the 'lobster.' My husband ordered the Lasagna - $25 - one piece, $5 for 4 small pieces of bread. Each must be at a 80-90% mark-up. There is no option for a dinner size side salad so $13 for a Caesar. Other Italian restaurants we love still include some vegetables with an entree and bread is still gratis and offer the dinner-size salad option for a smaller charge. On the upside - our server was excellent!

    Our server, Kelsey, was terrific. She was attentive and personable without being intrusive, making my mother's 82nd birthday celebration a memorable evening. We had the lasagna, ravioli, and pasta carbonara, all of which were cooked perfectly. We look forward to our next visit, which will be soon.

    Honestly I don’t think their pasta is freshly made. That is the biggest problem. Very ironic. Service is robotic. It’s a bit sad as I remember how good their food was when they were in the original location in Irvine.

    We are pleased with our dining experience every time we go. The restaurant has a bit of a New York City restaurant ambience, which we love. (Dark wood). Entrees are reasonably priced. Our service with Kelsey was wonderful.
